[−][src]Module libp2p::kad

Kademlia protocol. Allows peer discovery, records store and records fetch.

Usage

Usage is done in the following steps:

  • Build a KadSystemConfig and a KadConnecConfig object that contain the way you want the Kademlia protocol to behave.

  • Create a swarm that upgrades incoming connections with the KadConnecConfig.

  • Build a KadSystem from the KadSystemConfig. This requires passing a closure that provides the Kademlia controller of a peer.

  • You can perform queries using the KadSystem.
