BGPKIT Commons

bgpkit-commons is a library for common BGP-related data and functions. It provides a unified interface to multiple BGP data sources through a lazy-loading architecture — modules are independently enabled via feature flags and data is only fetched when explicitly requested.

Architecture

graph TD
    B[BgpkitCommons]

    B -->|load_asinfo| M1[asinfo]
    B -->|load_as2rel| M2[as2rel]
    B -->|load_bogons| M3[bogons]
    B -->|load_countries| M4[countries]
    B -->|load_mrt_collectors| M5[mrt_collectors]
    B -->|load_rpki| M6[rpki]

    M1 -->|asinfo_get, asinfo_all| A1[RIPE NCC / CAIDA / APNIC / PeeringDB]
    M2 -->|as2rel_lookup| A2[BGPKIT inference]
    M3 -->|bogons_match| A3[IANA registries]
    M4 -->|country_by_code| A4[GeoNames]
    M5 -->|mrt_collectors_all| A5[RouteViews / RIPE RIS]
    M6 -->|rpki_validate| A6[Cloudflare / RIPE NCC / RPKIviews / RPKISPOOL]

Each module is gated by a feature flag. The all feature (default) enables everything. Data is fetched on the first load_xxx() call and kept in memory until reload() is called.

Modules

Quick Start

[dependencies]
bgpkit-commons = "0.10"

use bgpkit_commons::BgpkitCommons;

let mut commons = BgpkitCommons::new();

// Load the modules you need
commons.load_bogons().unwrap();
commons.load_asinfo(false, false, false, false).unwrap();

// Access the data
if let Ok(is_bogon) = commons.bogons_match("23456") {
    println!("ASN 23456 is bogon: {}", is_bogon);
}
if let Ok(Some(info)) = commons.asinfo_get(13335) {
    println!("AS13335: {} ({})", info.name, info.country);
}

Examples

RPKI Validation

use bgpkit_commons::BgpkitCommons;

let mut commons = BgpkitCommons::new();
commons.load_rpki(None).unwrap(); // None = real-time from Cloudflare

let result = commons.rpki_validate(13335, "1.1.1.0/24").unwrap();
println!("Validation result: {:?}", result);

Historical RPKI Data

use bgpkit_commons::BgpkitCommons;
use bgpkit_commons::rpki::{HistoricalRpkiSource, RpkiViewsCollector};
use chrono::NaiveDate;

let mut commons = BgpkitCommons::new();
let date = NaiveDate::from_ymd_opt(2024, 1, 4).unwrap();

// From RIPE NCC historical archives
commons.load_rpki_historical(date, HistoricalRpkiSource::Ripe).unwrap();

// Or from an RPKIviews collector
let source = HistoricalRpkiSource::RpkiViews(RpkiViewsCollector::SobornostNet);
commons.load_rpki_historical(date, source).unwrap();

// Or from RPKISPOOL (CCR format, parses faster)
use bgpkit_commons::rpki::RpkiSpoolsCollector;
let source = HistoricalRpkiSource::RpkiSpools(RpkiSpoolsCollector::default());
commons.load_rpki_historical(date, source).unwrap();

Available RPKIviews collectors: SobornostNet (default), MassarsNet, AttnJp, KerfuffleNet.

Available RPKISPOOL collectors: SobornostNet (default), AttnJp, KerfuffleNet.

AS Information with Builder

use bgpkit_commons::BgpkitCommons;

let mut commons = BgpkitCommons::new();
let builder = commons.asinfo_builder()
    .with_as2org()
    .with_peeringdb();
commons.load_asinfo_with(builder).unwrap();

if let Ok(are_siblings) = commons.asinfo_are_siblings(13335, 132892) {
    println!("AS13335 and AS132892 are siblings: {}", are_siblings);
}

Direct Module Access

All modules can be used directly without BgpkitCommons:

use bgpkit_commons::bogons::Bogons;
use bgpkit_commons::rpki::RpkiTrie;

let bogons = Bogons::new().unwrap();
let trie = RpkiTrie::from_cloudflare().unwrap();

Feature Flags

For a minimal build:

[dependencies]
bgpkit-commons = { version = "0.10", default-features = false, features = ["bogons", "rpki"] }
