[Build Status] (https://travis-ci.org/decred/dcrd) ![ISC License] (http://img.shields.io/badge/license-ISC-blue.svg) [GoDoc] (http://godoc.org/github.com/decred/dcrd/wire)

Package wire implements the decred wire protocol. A comprehensive suite of tests with 100% test coverage is provided to ensure proper functionality.

This package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing to interface with decred peers at the wire protocol level.

Installation and Updating

$ go get -u github.com/decred/dcrd/wire

Decred Message Overview

The decred protocol consists of exchanging messages between peers. Each message is preceded by a header which identifies information about it such as which decred network it is a part of, its type, how big it is, and a checksum to verify validity. All encoding and decoding of message headers is handled by this package.

To accomplish this, there is a generic interface for decred messages named Message which allows messages of any type to be read, written, or passed around through channels, functions, etc. In addition, concrete implementations of most of the currently supported decred messages are provided. For these supported messages, all of the details of marshalling and unmarshalling to and from the wire using decred encoding are handled so the caller doesn't have to concern themselves with the specifics.

Reading Messages Example

In order to unmarshal decred messages from the wire, use the ReadMessage function. It accepts any io.Reader, but typically this will be a net.Conn to a remote node running a decred peer. Example syntax is:

	// Use the most recent protocol version supported by the package and the
	// main decred network.
	pver := wire.ProtocolVersion
	dcrnet := wire.MainNet

	// Reads and validates the next decred message from conn using the
	// protocol version pver and the decred network dcrnet.  The returns
	// are a wire.Message, a []byte which contains the unmarshalled
	// raw payload, and a possible error.
	msg, rawPayload, err := wire.ReadMessage(conn, pver, dcrnet)
	if err != nil {
		// Log and handle the error
	}

See the package documentation for details on determining the message type.

Writing Messages Example

In order to marshal decred messages to the wire, use the WriteMessage function. It accepts any io.Writer, but typically this will be a net.Conn to a remote node running a decred peer. Example syntax to request addresses from a remote peer is:

	// Use the most recent protocol version supported by the package and the
	// main decred network.
	pver := wire.ProtocolVersion
	dcrnet := wire.MainNet

	// Create a new getaddr decred message.
	msg := wire.NewMsgGetAddr()

	// Writes a decred message msg to conn using the protocol version
	// pver, and the decred network dcrnet.  The return is a possible
	// error.
	err := wire.WriteMessage(conn, msg, pver, dcrnet)
	if err != nil {
		// Log and handle the error
	}

Overview

Package wire implements the decred wire protocol.

For the complete details of the decred protocol, see the official wiki entry at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_specification. The following only serves as a quick overview to provide information on how to use the package.

At a high level, this package provides support for marshalling and unmarshalling supported decred messages to and from the wire. This package does not deal with the specifics of message handling such as what to do when a message is received. This provides the caller with a high level of flexibility.

Decred Message Overview

The decred protocol consists of exchanging messages between peers. Each message is preceded by a header which identifies information about it such as which decred network it is a part of, its type, how big it is, and a checksum to verify validity. All encoding and decoding of message headers is handled by this package.

To accomplish this, there is a generic interface for decred messages named Message which allows messages of any type to be read, written, or passed around through channels, functions, etc. In addition, concrete implementations of most of the currently supported decred messages are provided. For these supported messages, all of the details of marshalling and unmarshalling to and from the wire using decred encoding are handled so the caller doesn't have to concern themselves with the specifics.

Message Interaction

The following provides a quick summary of how the decred messages are intended to interact with one another. As stated above, these interactions are not directly handled by this package. For more in-depth details about the appropriate interactions, see the official decred protocol wiki entry at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_specification.

The initial handshake consists of two peers sending each other a version message (MsgVersion) followed by responding with a verack message (MsgVerAck). Both peers use the information in the version message (MsgVersion) to negotiate things such as protocol version and supported services with each other. Once the initial handshake is complete, the following chart indicates message interactions in no particular order. 

Peer A Sends                          Peer B Responds
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
getaddr message (MsgGetAddr)          addr message (MsgAddr)
getblocks message (MsgGetBlocks)      inv message (MsgInv)
inv message (MsgInv)                  getdata message (MsgGetData)
getdata message (MsgGetData)          block message (MsgBlock) -or-
                                      tx message (MsgTx) -or-
                                      notfound message (MsgNotFound)
getheaders message (MsgGetHeaders)    headers message (MsgHeaders)
ping message (MsgPing)                pong message (MsgHeaders)* -or-
                                      (none -- Ability to send message is enough)

NOTES:
* The pong message was not added until later protocol versions as defined
  in BIP0031.  The BIP0031Version constant can be used to detect a recent
  enough protocol version for this purpose (version > BIP0031Version).

Common Parameters

There are several common parameters that arise when using this package to read and write decred messages. The following sections provide a quick overview of these parameters so the next sections can build on them.

Protocol Version

The protocol version should be negotiated with the remote peer at a higher level than this package via the version (MsgVersion) message exchange, however, this package provides the wire.ProtocolVersion constant which indicates the latest protocol version this package supports and is typically the value to use for all outbound connections before a potentially lower protocol version is negotiated.

Decred Network

The decred network is a magic number which is used to identify the start of a message and which decred network the message applies to. This package provides the following constants: 

wire.MainNet
wire.TestNet (Test network version 3)
wire.SimNet   (Simulation test network)

Determining Message Type

As discussed in the decred message overview section, this package reads and writes decred messages using a generic interface named Message. In order to determine the actual concrete type of the message, use a type switch or type assertion. An example of a type switch follows: 

// Assumes msg is already a valid concrete message such as one created
// via NewMsgVersion or read via ReadMessage.
switch msg := msg.(type) {
case *wire.MsgVersion:
	// The message is a pointer to a MsgVersion struct.
	fmt.Printf("Protocol version: %v", msg.ProtocolVersion)
case *wire.MsgBlock:
	// The message is a pointer to a MsgBlock struct.
	fmt.Printf("Number of tx in block: %v", msg.Header.TxnCount)
}

Reading Messages

In order to unmarshall decred messages from the wire, use the ReadMessage function. It accepts any io.Reader, but typically this will be a net.Conn to a remote node running a decred peer. Example syntax is: 

// Reads and validates the next decred message from conn using the
// protocol version pver and the decred network btcnet.  The returns
// are a wire.Message, a []byte which contains the unmarshalled
// raw payload, and a possible error.
msg, rawPayload, err := wire.ReadMessage(conn, pver, btcnet)
if err != nil {
	// Log and handle the error
}

Writing Messages

In order to marshall decred messages to the wire, use the WriteMessage function. It accepts any io.Writer, but typically this will be a net.Conn to a remote node running a decred peer. Example syntax to request addresses from a remote peer is: 

// Create a new getaddr decred message.
msg := wire.NewMsgGetAddr()

// Writes a decred message msg to conn using the protocol version
// pver, and the decred network btcnet.  The return is a possible
// error.
err := wire.WriteMessage(conn, msg, pver, btcnet)
if err != nil {
	// Log and handle the error
}

Errors

Errors returned by this package are either the raw errors provided by underlying calls to read/write from streams such as io.EOF, io.ErrUnexpectedEOF, and io.ErrShortWrite, or of type wire.MessageError. This allows the caller to differentiate between general IO errors and malformed messages through type assertions.

Functions

func DefaultMsgTxVersion 

func DefaultMsgTxVersion() int32

DefaultMsgTxVersion returns the default version int32 (serialize the tx fully, version number 1).

func IsSupportedMsgTxVersion 

func IsSupportedMsgTxVersion(msgTx *MsgTx) bool

IsSupportedMsgTxVersion returns if a transaction version is supported or not. Currently, inclusion into the memory pool (and thus blocks) only supports the DefaultMsgTxVersion.

func NoWitnessMsgTxVersion 

func NoWitnessMsgTxVersion() int32

NoWitnessMsgTxVersion returns the witness free serializing int32 (serialize the tx without witness, version number 1).

func RandomUint64 

func RandomUint64() (uint64, error)

RandomUint64 returns a cryptographically random uint64 value.

func ReadOutPoint 

func ReadOutPoint(r io.Reader, pver uint32, version int32, op *OutPoint) error

func ReadVarString added in v0.0.6 

func ReadVarString(r io.Reader, pver uint32) (string, error)

ReadVarString reads a variable length string from r and returns it as a Go string. A variable length string is encoded as a variable length integer containing the length of the string followed by the bytes that represent the string itself. An error is returned if the length is greater than the maximum block payload size since it helps protect against memory exhaustion attacks and forced panics through malformed messages.

func VarIntSerializeSize 

func VarIntSerializeSize(val uint64) int

VarIntSerializeSize returns the number of bytes it would take to serialize val as a variable length integer.

func WitnessOnlyMsgTxVersion 

func WitnessOnlyMsgTxVersion() int32

WriteOutPoint encodes op to the decred protocol encoding for an OutPoint to w.

func WriteVarString added in v0.0.6 

func WriteVarString(w io.Writer, pver uint32, str string) error

WriteVarString serializes str to w as a variable length integer containing the length of the string followed by the bytes that represent the string itself.

Message is an interface that describes a decred message. A type that implements Message has complete control over the representation of its data and may therefore contain additional or fewer fields than those which are used directly in the protocol encoded message.

func ReadMessage 

func ReadMessage(r io.Reader, pver uint32, dcrnet CurrencyNet) (Message, []byte, error)

ReadMessage reads, validates, and parses the next decred Message from r for the provided protocol version and decred network. It returns the parsed Message and raw bytes which comprise the message. This function only differs from ReadMessageN in that it doesn't return the number of bytes read. This function is mainly provided for backwards compatibility with the original API, but it's also useful for callers that don't care about byte counts.

func ReadMessageN 

func ReadMessageN(r io.Reader, pver uint32, dcrnet CurrencyNet) (int, Message, []byte, error)

ReadMessageN reads, validates, and parses the next decred Message from r for the provided protocol version and decred network. It returns the number of bytes read in addition to the parsed Message and raw bytes which comprise the message. This function is the same as ReadMessage except it also returns the number of bytes read.

type MessageError 

type MessageError struct {
	Func        string // Function name
	Description string // Human readable description of the issue
}

MessageError describes an issue with a message. An example of some potential issues are messages from the wrong decred network, invalid commands, mismatched checksums, and exceeding max payloads.

This provides a mechanism for the caller to type assert the error to differentiate between general io errors such as io.EOF and issues that resulted from malformed messages.

func (msg *MsgBlock) Deserialize(r io.Reader) error

Deserialize decodes a block from r into the receiver using a format that is suitable for long-term storage such as a database while respecting the Version field in the block. This function differs from BtcDecode in that BtcDecode decodes from the decred wire protocol as it was sent across the network. The wire encoding can technically differ depending on the protocol version and doesn't even really need to match the format of a stored block at all. As of the time this comment was written, the encoded block is the same in both instances, but there is a distinct difference and separating the two allows the API to be flexible enough to deal with changes.

func (*MsgBlock) DeserializeTxLoc
