Module libp2p_core::transport
source · Expand description
Handles entering a connection with a peer.
The two main elements of this module are the Transport
and ConnectionUpgrade
traits.
Transport
is implemented on objects that allow dialing and listening. ConnectionUpgrade
is
implemented on objects that make it possible to upgrade a connection (for example by adding an
encryption middleware to the connection).
Thanks to the Transport::or_transport
, Transport::with_upgrade
and
UpgradedNode::or_upgrade
methods, you can combine multiple transports and/or upgrades
together in a complex chain of protocols negotiation.
