Constants

const Varint64MaximumBytes = 9

maximum possible number of bytes in Varint64

Functions

func CopyVarint64

func CopyVarint64(buffer []byte) []byte

make a copy of a Varint64 from the beginning of a buffer

func EnsureAbsolute

func EnsureAbsolute(directory string, filePath string) string

ensure the path is absolute if not, prepend the directory to make absolute path

func EnsureFileExists

func EnsureFileExists(name string) bool

check if file exists

func FetchJSON

func FetchJSON(client *http.Client, url string, reply interface{}) error

func FormatBytes

func FormatBytes(name string, data []byte) string

for dumping the expected hex used by some test routines

func FromBase58

func FromBase58(b string) []byte

FromBase58 decodes a modified base58 string to a byte slice.

func FromVarint64

func FromVarint64(buffer []byte) (uint64, int)

convert an array of up to Varint64MaximumBytes to a uint64

also return the number of bytes used as second value returns 0, 0 if varint64 buffer is truncated

func ToBase58

func ToBase58(b []byte) string

ToBase58 encodes a byte slice to a modified base58 string.

func ToVarint64

func ToVarint64(value uint64) []byte

convert a 64 bit unsigned integer to Varint64

Structure of the result byte 1: ext | B06 | B05 | B04 | B03 | B02 | B01 | B00 byte 2: ext | B13 | B12 | B11 | B10 | B09 | B08 | B07 byte 3: ext | B20 | B19 | B18 | B17 | B16 | B15 | B14 byte 4: ext | B27 | B26 | B25 | B24 | B23 | B22 | B21 byte 5: ext | B34 | B33 | B32 | B31 | B30 | B29 | B28 byte 6: ext | B41 | B40 | B39 | B38 | B37 | B36 | B35 byte 7: ext | B48 | B47 | B46 | B45 | B44 | B43 | B42 byte 8: ext | B55 | B54 | B53 | B52 | B51 | B50 | B49 byte 9: B63 | B62 | B61 | B60 | B59 | B58 | B57 | B56

Types

type Connection

type Connection struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

type to hold an IP and Port

func ConnectionFromIPandPort

func ConnectionFromIPandPort(ip net.IP, port uint16) *Connection

convert an IP and port to a connection

func NewConnection

func NewConnection(hostPort string) (*Connection, error)

decode a connection string into an IP and Port

func NewConnections

func NewConnections(hostPort []string) ([]*Connection, error)

convert an array of connections

func (*Connection) CanonicalIPandPort

func (conn *Connection) CanonicalIPandPort(prefix string) (string, bool)

make the IP:Port into canonical string

examples:

IPv4:  127.0.0.1:1234
IPv6:  [::1]:1234

prefix is optional and can be empty ("") returns prefixed string and IPv6 flag

func (Connection) MarshalText

func (conn Connection) MarshalText() ([]byte, error)

convert to text for JSON

func (*Connection) Pack

func (conn *Connection) Pack() PackedConnection

pack an IP and Port into a byte buffer

func (Connection) String

func (conn Connection) String() string

basic string conversion

type PackedConnection

type PackedConnection []byte

type for packed byte buffer IP and Port

func (PackedConnection) Unpack

func (packed PackedConnection) Unpack() (*Connection, int)

unpack a byte buffer into an IP and Port returns nil if unpack fails if sucessful returns connection and number of bytes used so an array can be unpacked more easily
