``

Usage: arpc [options]

Options:

-h, --help output usage information
-V, --version output the version number

`

Server

`js
var rpc = require('axon-rpc')
, axon = require('axon')
, rep = axon.socket('rep');

var server = new rpc.Server(rep);
rep.bind(4000);
`

$3

Expose a single method name mapped to fn callback.

`js
server.expose('add', function(a, b, fn){
fn(null, a + b);
});
`

$3

Expose several methods:

`js
server.expose({
add: function(){ ... },
sub: function(){ ... }
});
`

This may also be used to expose
an entire node module with exports:

`js
server.expose(require('./api'));
`

Client

`js
var rpc = require('axon-rpc')
, axon = require('axon')
, req = axon.socket('req');

var client = new rpc.Client(req);
req.connect(4000);
`

$3

Invoke method name with some arguments and invoke fn(err, ...):

`js
client.call('add', 1, 2, function(err, n){
console.log(n);
// => 3
})
`

$3

Request available methods:

`js
client.methods(function(err, methods){
console.log(methods);
})
`

Responds with objects such as:

`js
{
add: {
name: 'add',
params: ['a', 'b', 'fn']
}
}
