+- added native (socket based) sender logic (Zabbix::Sender::Socket).
+- changed Zabbix::Sender::Pipe's open method from popen to Open3::popen3 to allow capture of stdout stderf and exitA
+- the Socket and Pipe .flush method returns status, sendBatchAtomic relays it from its internal call to flush
+# 1.1.1

 # zabbix_sender_api
 
-This gem describes an api that takes some of the drudgery out of the task of putting together bulk data for the zabbix_sender utility.
+This gem provides a model for assembling and sending data to Zabbix via its sender/trapper mechanism.  I works both with the zabbix_sender command line utility by itself using a socket connection to a trapper port direct from Ruby.
 
 **Detailed documentation for this library is at [rubydoc.info](https://rubydoc.info/gems/zabbix_sender_api)**
 
 Look at [the source for the zfstozab gem](https://gitlab.com/svdasein/zfstozab/-/blob/master/exe/zabbix-zfs.rb) for a practical example how to use this api.
 
-zabbix_sender is a command line utility for sending monitoring data to Zabbix server or proxy. On the Zabbix server an item of type Zabbix trapper should be created with corresponding key.
+zabbix_sender_api can send data to zabbix via one of two included connection types:
+ * zabbix_sender (this was the original and for quite some time only mode supported)
+ * TCP socket connection directly to a Zabbix "trapper" port (as of vers 1.1.0)
 
- * [Zabbix sender manpage](https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/4.0/manpages/zabbix_sender)
- * [Zabbix sender CLI help](zabbix-sender-help.md)
 
 
-zabbix_sender_api's function is to generate data to send to a zabbix_sender instance via stdin where zabbix_sender was invoked with these options:
-
-```
-  -i --input-file input-file   Load values from input file. Specify - for
-                             standard input. Each line of file contains
-                             whitespace delimited: <host> <key> <value>.
-                             Specify - in <host> to use hostname from
-                             configuration file or --host argument
-                             
-  -T --with-timestamps       Each line of file contains whitespace delimited:
-                             <host> <key> <timestamp> <value>. This can be used
-                             with --input-file option. Timestamp should be
-                             specified in Unix timestamp format
-```
-
-It is analogous to:
-
- \<program that generates sender input\> | zabbix-sender -z \<zabbix-server-or-proxy-ip\> -T -i -
- 
-(You can use this api to just generate output that you then pipe to zabbix_sender yourself if you prefer)

+
+#### Zabbix::Sender::Socket method:
+
+You can switch between using the Pipe(zabbix_sender) method and the Socket(direct to zabbix via tcp socket) method very simply.  Just change:
+
+```
+sender = Zabbix::Sender::Pipe.new
+```
+to
+```
+sender = Zabbix::Sender::Socket.new
+```
+
+If you were specifiying a path to zabbix_sender using the Pipe method, remove that.  If you're using a socket other than 10051 on your server/proxy,  you'll want to add the port: option
+
+The socket method doesn't support sending multiple batches between flushes, so you should just use sendBatchAtomic(aBatch) with the Socket method.
+
+You don't have to change anything else - the rest of zabbix_sender_api works exactly the same with the Socket method, save for that it's arguably more efficient with system resources.  The only drawback might be if zabbix changes the sender protocol.  At that point until this library is update to support the change you can revert to the Pipe/zabbix_sender method if needed (if they change the command line switches radically there, changes will be required in this library as well).
