Struct KBucket 

pub struct KBucket {}

Implementations

impl KBucket

pub fn new() -> Self

Create a new instance.

pub fn arbiter(&self)

Default arbiter function for contacts with the same id. Uses contact.vectorClock to select which contact to update the k-bucket with. Contact with larger vectorClock field will be selected. If vectorClock is the same, candidat will be selected.

pub fn distance(&self)

Default distance function. Finds the XOR distance between firstId and secondId.

pub fn add(&self)

Adds a contact to the k-bucket.

pub fn closest(&self)

Get the n closest contacts to the provided node id. “Closest” here means: closest according to the XOR metric of the contact node id.

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

Counts the total number of contacts in the tree.

pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

pub fn get(&self)

Retrieves the contact.

pub fn metadata(&self)

The metadata method serves as a container that can be used by implementations using k-bucket. One example is storing a timestamp to indicate the last time when a node in the bucket was responding to a ping.

pub fn remove(&self)

Removes contact with the provided id.

pub fn to_vec(&self)

Traverses the tree, putting all the contacts into one arraverses the tree, putting all the contacts into one vector.
