[−][src]Module libp2p_core::topology
A network topology is a collection of nodes that are part of the network or that we think are part of the network. In other words, it is essentially a container whose layout is optimized for certain operations.
In libp2p, a topology is any struct that implements at least the Topology trait. In order
to build a Swarm, you have to give to it ownership of a type that implements this trait.
In order to use some protocols defined outside of libp2p-core (such as Kademlia) in your
Swarm, you will have to implement additional traits on your topology.
While the MemoryTopology is provided as a ready-to-go topology that is suitable for quick
prototyping, it shouldn't be used in an actual high-performance production software.
Structs
| MemoryTopology | Topology of the network stored in memory. |
Enums
| DisconnectReason | Reason why the peer has been disconnected. |
Traits
| Topology | Storage for the network topology. |
