Functions

func SetAliveExpirationCheckInterval

func SetAliveExpirationCheckInterval(interval time.Duration)

SetAliveExpirationCheckInterval sets the expiration check interval

func SetAliveExpirationTimeout

func SetAliveExpirationTimeout(timeout time.Duration)

SetAliveExpirationTimeout sets the expiration timeout

func SetAliveTimeInterval

func SetAliveTimeInterval(interval time.Duration)

SetAliveTimeInterval sets the alive time interval

func SetMaxConnAttempts

func SetMaxConnAttempts(attempts int)

SetMaxConnAttempts sets the maximum number of connection attempts the peer would perform when invoking Connect()

func SetReconnectInterval

func SetReconnectInterval(interval time.Duration)

SetReconnectInterval sets the reconnect interval

Types

type CommService

type CommService interface {
	// Gossip gossips a message
	Gossip(msg *proto.SignedGossipMessage)

	// SendToPeer sends to a given peer a message.
	// The nonce can be anything since the communication module handles the nonce itself
	SendToPeer(peer *NetworkMember, msg *proto.SignedGossipMessage)

	// Ping probes a remote peer and returns if it's responsive or not
	Ping(peer *NetworkMember) bool

	// Accept returns a read-only channel for membership messages sent from remote peers
	Accept() <-chan *proto.SignedGossipMessage

	// PresumedDead returns a read-only channel for peers that are presumed to be dead
	PresumedDead() <-chan common.PKIidType

	// CloseConn orders to close the connection with a certain peer
	CloseConn(peer *NetworkMember)
}

CommService is an interface that the discovery expects to be implemented and passed on creation

type CryptoService

type CryptoService interface {
	// ValidateAliveMsg validates that an Alive message is authentic
	ValidateAliveMsg(message *proto.SignedGossipMessage) bool

	// SignMessage signs a message
	SignMessage(m *proto.GossipMessage, internalEndpoint string) *proto.Envelope
}

CryptoService is an interface that the discovery expects to be implemented and passed on creation

type DisclosurePolicy

type DisclosurePolicy func(remotePeer *NetworkMember) (Sieve, EnvelopeFilter)

DisclosurePolicy defines which messages a given remote peer is eligible of knowing about, and also what is it eligible to know about out of a given SignedGossipMessage. Returns:

1. A Sieve for a given remote peer. The Sieve is applied for each peer in question and outputs whether the message should be disclosed to the remote peer.
2. A EnvelopeFilter for a given SignedGossipMessage, which may remove part of the Envelope the SignedGossipMessage originates from

type Discovery

type Discovery interface {

	// Lookup returns a network member, or nil if not found
	Lookup(PKIID common.PKIidType) *NetworkMember

	// Self returns this instance's membership information
	Self() NetworkMember

	// UpdateMetadata updates this instance's metadata
	UpdateMetadata([]byte)

	// UpdateEndpoint updates this instance's endpoint
	UpdateEndpoint(string)

	// Stops this instance
	Stop()

	// GetMembership returns the alive members in the view
	GetMembership() []NetworkMember

	// InitiateSync makes the instance ask a given number of peers
	// for their membership information
	InitiateSync(peerNum int)

	// Connect makes this instance to connect to a remote instance
	// The identifier param is a function that can be used to identify
	// the peer, and to assert its PKI-ID, whether its in the peer's org or not,
	// and whether the action was successful or not
	Connect(member NetworkMember, id identifier)
}

Discovery is the interface that represents a discovery module

func NewDiscoveryService

func NewDiscoveryService(self NetworkMember, comm CommService, crypt CryptoService, disPol DisclosurePolicy) Discovery

NewDiscoveryService returns a new discovery service with the comm module passed and the crypto service passed

type EnvelopeFilter

type EnvelopeFilter func(message *proto.SignedGossipMessage) *proto.Envelope

EnvelopeFilter may or may not remove part of the Envelope that the given SignedGossipMessage originates from.

type NetworkMember

type NetworkMember struct {
	Endpoint         string
	Metadata         []byte
	PKIid            common.PKIidType
	InternalEndpoint string
}

NetworkMember is a peer's representation

func (NetworkMember) PreferredEndpoint

func (n NetworkMember) PreferredEndpoint() string

PreferredEndpoint computes the endpoint to connect to, while preferring internal endpoint over the standard endpoint

func (*NetworkMember) String

func (n *NetworkMember) String() string

String returns a string representation of the NetworkMember

type PeerIdentification

type PeerIdentification struct {
	ID      common.PKIidType
	SelfOrg bool
}

PeerIdentification encompasses a remote peer's PKI-ID and whether its in the same org as the current peer or not

type Sieve

type Sieve func(message *proto.SignedGossipMessage) bool

Sieve defines the messages that are allowed to be sent to some remote peer, based on some criteria. Returns whether the sieve permits sending a given message.
