Struct PeerId 

pub struct PeerId(/* private fields */);

Peer ID derived from public key (256-bit).

The canonical peer identity in the Saorsa network. Computed as the BLAKE3 hash of the node’s ML-DSA-65 public key.

Serializes as a hex string (64 characters) in all formats to maintain wire compatibility with the existing postcard-based WireMessage protocol.

Implementations

impl PeerId

pub fn to_bytes(&self) -> &[u8; 32]

Convert to a byte-array reference.

pub fn as_bytes(&self) -> &[u8; 32]

Backward-compatible byte accessor.

pub fn xor_distance(&self, other: &PeerId) -> [u8; 32]

XOR distance to another peer ID (for Kademlia).

pub fn distance(&self, other: &PeerId) -> [u8; 32]

XOR distance alias — provided so code using DhtKey can call .distance() unchanged.

pub fn from_hex(hex_str: &str) -> Result<PeerId, PeerIdParseError>

Create from a hex-encoded string (64 hex characters -> 32 bytes).

pub fn to_hex(&self) -> String

Encode this PeerId as a lowercase hex string (64 characters).

pub fn short_hex(&self) -> String

Return a short hex representation (first 8 bytes = 16 hex characters).

Useful for compact log output.

pub fn from_bytes(bytes: [u8; 32]) -> PeerId

Construct from raw bytes.

pub fn from_name(name: &str) -> PeerId

Create a deterministic PeerId by BLAKE3-hashing an arbitrary name.

Use this for synthetic identifiers (e.g. CLI peer placeholders, test peers) where you don’t have a real hex-encoded peer ID.

pub fn random() -> PeerId

Create a random peer identifier (primarily for tests/simulation).

pub fn new(data: &[u8]) -> PeerId

BLAKE3 hash constructor — produces a deterministic PeerId from arbitrary data.

Equivalent to the former DhtKey::new(). Use this when you need a content-addressed identifier (e.g. hashing a test label into a key).

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for PeerId

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for PeerId

fn deserialize<D>( deserializer: D, ) -> Result<PeerId, <D as Deserializer<'de>>::Error>

where D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Display for PeerId

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl From<[u8; 32]> for PeerId

fn from(bytes: [u8; 32]) -> PeerId

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl FromStr for PeerId

type Err = PeerIdParseError

The associated error which can be returned from parsing.

fn from_str(s: &str) -> Result<PeerId, <PeerId as FromStr>::Err>

impl Hash for PeerId

fn hash<__H>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl Ord for PeerId

fn cmp(&self, other: &PeerId) -> Ordering

This method returns an Ordering between self and other.

fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.
