Crate libp2prs_core[−][src]
Transports, upgrades, multiplexing and node handling of libp2p.
The main concepts of libp2p-core are:
- A
PeerIdis a unique global identifier for a node on the network. Each node must have a differentPeerId. Normally, aPeerIdis the hash of the public key used to negotiate encryption on the communication channel, thereby guaranteeing that they cannot be spoofed. - The
Transporttrait defines how to reach a remote node or listen for incoming remote connections. See thetransportmodule. - The [
StreamMuxer] trait is implemented on structs that hold a connection to a remote and can subdivide this connection into multiple substreams. See themuxingmodule. - The [
UpgradeInfo] and [Upgrader] traits define how to upgrade each individual substream to use a protocol. See theupgrademodule.
