Overview

Package network provides core networking abstractions for libp2p.

The network package provides the high-level Network interface for interacting with other libp2p peers, which is the primary public API for initiating and accepting connections to remote peers.

Index

Constants

View Source
const MessageSizeMax = 1 << 22 // 4 MB

MessageSizeMax is a soft (recommended) maximum for network messages. One can write more, as the interface is a stream. But it is useful to bunch it up into multiple read/writes when the whole message is a single, large serialized object.

Variables

View Source
var DialPeerTimeout = 60 * time.Second

DialPeerTimeout is the default timeout for a single call to `DialPeer`. When there are multiple concurrent calls to `DialPeer`, this timeout will apply to each independently.

View Source
var ErrNoConn = errors.New("no usable connection to peer")

ErrNoConn is returned when attempting to open a stream to a peer with the NoDial option and no usable connection is available.

View Source
var ErrNoRemoteAddrs = errors.New("no remote addresses")

ErrNoRemoteAddrs is returned when there are no addresses associated with a peer during a dial.

View Source
var ErrTransientConn = errors.New("transient connection to peer")

ErrTransientConn is returned when attempting to open a stream to a peer with only a transient connection, without specifying the UseTransient option.

View Source
var GlobalNoopNotifiee = &NoopNotifiee{}

Global noop notifiee. Do not change.

Types

type Conn

type Conn interface {
	io.Closer

	ConnSecurity
	ConnMultiaddrs
	ConnStat

	// ID returns an identifier that uniquely identifies this Conn within this
	// host, during this run. Connection IDs may repeat across restarts.
	ID() string

	// NewStream constructs a new Stream over this conn.
	NewStream(context.Context) (Stream, error)

	// GetStreams returns all open streams over this conn.
	GetStreams() []Stream
}

Conn is a connection to a remote peer. It multiplexes streams. Usually there is no need to use a Conn directly, but it may be useful to get information about the peer on the other side:

stream.Conn().RemotePeer()

type ConnMultiaddrs

type ConnMultiaddrs interface {
	// LocalMultiaddr returns the local Multiaddr associated
	// with this connection
	LocalMultiaddr() ma.Multiaddr

	// RemoteMultiaddr returns the remote Multiaddr associated
	// with this connection
	RemoteMultiaddr() ma.Multiaddr
}

ConnMultiaddrs is an interface mixin for connection types that provide multiaddr addresses for the endpoints.

type ConnSecurity

type ConnSecurity interface {
	// LocalPeer returns our peer ID
	LocalPeer() peer.ID

	// LocalPrivateKey returns our private key
	LocalPrivateKey() ic.PrivKey

	// RemotePeer returns the peer ID of the remote peer.
	RemotePeer() peer.ID

	// RemotePublicKey returns the public key of the remote peer.
	RemotePublicKey() ic.PubKey
}

ConnSecurity is the interface that one can mix into a connection interface to give it the security methods.

type ConnStat added in v0.8.2

type ConnStat interface {
	// Stat stores metadata pertaining to this conn.
	Stat() Stat
}

ConnStat is an interface mixin for connection types that provide connection statistics.

type Connectedness

type Connectedness int

Connectedness signals the capacity for a connection with a given node. It is used to signal to services and other peers whether a node is reachable.

const (
	// NotConnected means no connection to peer, and no extra information (default)
	NotConnected Connectedness = iota

	// Connected means has an open, live connection to peer
	Connected

	// CanConnect means recently connected to peer, terminated gracefully
	CanConnect

	// CannotConnect means recently attempted connecting but failed to connect.
	// (should signal "made effort, failed")
	CannotConnect
)

func (Connectedness) String added in v0.5.5

func (c Connectedness) String() string

type Dialer

type Dialer interface {
	// Peerstore returns the internal peerstore
	// This is useful to tell the dialer about a new address for a peer.
	// Or use one of the public keys found out over the network.
	Peerstore() peerstore.Peerstore

	// LocalPeer returns the local peer associated with this network
	LocalPeer() peer.ID

	// DialPeer establishes a connection to a given peer
	DialPeer(context.Context, peer.ID) (Conn, error)

	// ClosePeer closes the connection to a given peer
	ClosePeer(peer.ID) error

	// Connectedness returns a state signaling connection capabilities
	Connectedness(peer.ID) Connectedness

	// Peers returns the peers connected
	Peers() []peer.ID

	// Conns returns the connections in this Netowrk
	Conns() []Conn

	// ConnsToPeer returns the connections in this Netowrk for given peer.
	ConnsToPeer(p peer.ID) []Conn

	// Notify/StopNotify register and unregister a notifiee for signals
	Notify(Notifiee)
	StopNotify(Notifiee)
}

Dialer represents a service that can dial out to peers (this is usually just a Network, but other services may not need the whole stack, and thus it becomes easier to mock)

type Direction

type Direction int

Direction represents which peer in a stream initiated a connection.

const (
	// DirUnknown is the default direction.
	DirUnknown Direction = iota
	// DirInbound is for when the remote peer initiated a connection.
	DirInbound
	// DirOutbound is for when the local peer initiated a connection.
	DirOutbound
)

func (Direction) String added in v0.5.5

func (d Direction) String() string

type NATDeviceType added in v0.8.4

type NATDeviceType int

NATDeviceType indicates the type of the NAT device.

const (
	// NATDeviceTypeUnknown indicates that the type of the NAT device is unknown.
	NATDeviceTypeUnknown NATDeviceType = iota

	// NATDeviceTypeCone indicates that the NAT device is a Cone NAT.
	// A Cone NAT is a NAT where all outgoing connections from the same source IP address and port are mapped by the NAT device
	// to the same IP address and port irrespective of the destination address.
	// With regards to RFC 3489, this could be either a Full Cone NAT, a Restricted Cone NAT or a
	// Port Restricted Cone NAT. However, we do NOT differentiate between them here and simply classify all such NATs as a Cone NAT.
	// NAT traversal with hole punching is possible with a Cone NAT ONLY if the remote peer is ALSO behind a Cone NAT.
	// If the remote peer is behind a Symmetric NAT, hole punching will fail.
	NATDeviceTypeCone

	// NATDeviceTypeSymmetric indicates that the NAT device is a Symmetric NAT.
	// A Symmetric NAT maps outgoing connections with different destination addresses to different IP addresses and ports,
	// even if they originate from the same source IP address and port.
	// NAT traversal with hole-punching is currently NOT possible in libp2p with Symmetric NATs irrespective of the remote peer's NAT type.
	NATDeviceTypeSymmetric
)

func (NATDeviceType) String added in v0.8.4

func (r NATDeviceType) String() string

type NATTransportProtocol added in v0.8.4

const (
	// NATTransportUDP means that the NAT Device Type has been determined for the UDP Protocol.
	NATTransportUDP NATTransportProtocol = iota
	// NATTransportTCP means that the NAT Device Type has been determined for the TCP Protocol.
	NATTransportTCP
)

func (NATTransportProtocol) String added in v0.8.4

func (n NATTransportProtocol) String() string

type Network

type Network interface {
	Dialer
	io.Closer

	// remote side. This operation is threadsafe.
	SetStreamHandler(StreamHandler)

	// NewStream returns a new stream to given peer p.
	// If there is no connection to p, attempts to create one.
	NewStream(context.Context, peer.ID) (Stream, error)

	// Listen tells the network to start listening on given multiaddrs.
	Listen(...ma.Multiaddr) error

	// ListenAddresses returns a list of addresses at which this network listens.
	ListenAddresses() []ma.Multiaddr

	// InterfaceListenAddresses returns a list of addresses at which this network
	// listens. It expands "any interface" addresses (/ip4/0.0.0.0, /ip6/::) to
	// use the known local interfaces.
	InterfaceListenAddresses() ([]ma.Multiaddr, error)

	io.Closer
}

Network is the interface used to connect to the outside world. It dials and listens for connections. it uses a Swarm to pool connections (see swarm pkg, and peerstream.Swarm). Connections are encrypted with a TLS-like protocol.
