var ErrPipeClosed = errors.New("p2p: read or write on closed message pipe")

Functions

func ExpectMsg added in v0.9.17

func ExpectMsg(r MsgReader, code uint64, content interface{}) error

ExpectMsg reads a message from r and verifies that its code and encoded RLP content match the provided values. If content is nil, the payload is discarded and not verified.

func MsgPipe

func MsgPipe() (*MsgPipeRW, *MsgPipeRW)

MsgPipe creates a message pipe. Reads on one end are matched with writes on the other. The pipe is full-duplex, both ends implement MsgReadWriter.

Example
rw1, rw2 := MsgPipe()
go func() {
	Send(rw1, 8, [][]byte{{0, 0}})
	Send(rw1, 5, [][]byte{{1, 1}})
	rw1.Close()
}()

for {
	msg, err := rw2.ReadMsg()
	if err != nil {
		break
	}
	var data [][]byte
	msg.Decode(&data)
	fmt.Printf("msg: %d, %x\n", msg.Code, data[0])
}
Output:

msg: 8, 0000
msg: 5, 0101

func Send added in v0.9.17

func Send(w MsgWriter, msgcode uint64, data interface{}) error

Send writes an RLP-encoded message with the given code. data should encode as an RLP list.

func SendItems added in v0.9.17

func SendItems(w MsgWriter, msgcode uint64, elems ...interface{}) error

SendItems writes an RLP with the given code and data elements. For a call such as:

SendItems(w, code, e1, e2, e3)

the message payload will be an RLP list containing the items:

[e1, e2, e3]

	// Use common.MakeName to create a name that follows existing conventions.
	Name string

	// Bootstrap nodes are used to establish connectivity
	// with the rest of the network.
	BootstrapNodes []*discover.Node

	// Static nodes are used as pre-configured connections which are always
	// maintained and re-connected on disconnects.
	StaticNodes []*discover.Node

	// Trusted nodes are used as pre-configured connections which are always
	// allowed to connect, even above the peer limit.
	TrustedNodes []*discover.Node

	// NodeDatabase is the path to the database containing the previously seen
	// live nodes in the network.
	NodeDatabase string

	Protocols []Protocol

	// If ListenAddr is set to a non-nil address, the server

type DiscReason

type DiscReason uint
const (
	DiscRequested DiscReason = iota
	DiscNetworkError
	DiscProtocolError
	DiscUselessPeer
	DiscTooManyPeers
	DiscAlreadyConnected
	DiscIncompatibleVersion
	DiscInvalidIdentity

type Msg struct {
	Code       uint64
	Size       uint32 // size of the paylod
	Payload    io.Reader
	ReceivedAt time.Time
}

Msg defines the structure of a p2p message.

Note that a Msg can only be sent once since the Payload reader is consumed during sending. It is not possible to create a Msg and send it any number of times. If you want to reuse an encoded structure, encode the payload into a byte array and create a separate Msg with a bytes.Reader as Payload for each send.

func (Msg) Decode

func (msg Msg) Decode(val interface{}) error

Decode parses the RLP content of a message into the given value, which must be a pointer.

For the decoding rules, please see package rlp.

func (Msg) Discard

Discard reads any remaining payload data into a black hole.

func (Msg) String added in v0.8.4

func (msg Msg) String() string

type MsgPipeRW

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

MsgPipeRW is an endpoint of a MsgReadWriter pipe.

func (*MsgPipeRW) Close

func (p *MsgPipeRW) Close() error

Close unblocks any pending ReadMsg and WriteMsg calls on both ends of the pipe. They will return ErrPipeClosed. Close also interrupts any reads from a message payload.

func (*MsgPipeRW) ReadMsg

func (p *MsgPipeRW) ReadMsg() (Msg, error)

ReadMsg returns a message sent on the other end of the pipe.

func (*MsgPipeRW) WriteMsg

func (p *MsgPipeRW) WriteMsg(msg Msg) error

WriteMsg sends a messsage on the pipe. It blocks until the receiver has consumed the message payload.

type MsgReadWriter

type MsgReadWriter interface {
	MsgReader
	MsgWriter
}

MsgReadWriter provides reading and writing of encoded messages. Implementations should ensure that ReadMsg and WriteMsg can be called simultaneously from multiple goroutines.

type MsgReader

type MsgReader interface {
	ReadMsg() (Msg, error)
}

type MsgWriter

type MsgWriter interface {
	// WriteMsg sends a message. It will block until the message's
	// Payload has been consumed by the other end.
	//
	// Note that messages can be sent only once because their
	// payload reader is drained.
	WriteMsg(Msg) error
}

	Enode string `json:"enode"` // Enode URL for adding this peer from remote peers
	IP    string `json:"ip"`    // IP address of the node

	// by the protocol.

	// negotiated with a peer. It should read and write messages from
	// rw. The Payload for each message must be fully consumed.
