prt-core

Core library for prt — a real-time network port monitor.

This crate provides the platform-independent logic for scanning, tracking, filtering, sorting, and exporting network port information. It is designed to be consumed by any frontend (TUI, GUI, CLI).

Architecture

platform::scan_ports()
    → Session::refresh()
        → scanner::diff_entries()   (New / Unchanged / Gone)
        → scanner::sort_entries()
        → scanner::filter_indices()
    → UI renders

Modules

• [model] — Core data types: PortEntry, TrackedEntry, SortState, enums.
• [core] — Business logic: scanning, diffing, filtering, sorting, killing, session management.
• [i18n] — Internationalization: runtime-switchable language support (English, Russian, Chinese) backed by AtomicU8.
• [platform] — OS-specific port scanning: macOS (lsof), Linux (/proc).

Example

use prt_core::core::scanner;
use prt_core::model::ExportFormat;

let entries = scanner::scan().expect("scan failed");
let json = scanner::export(&entries, ExportFormat::Json).unwrap();
println!("{json}");
