Module pea2pea::protocols [−][src]
Expand description
Opt-in protocols available to the Node; each protocol is expected to spawn its own task that runs throughout the
Node’s lifetime and handles a specific functionality. The communication with these tasks is done via
ProtocolHandlers.
Structs
An object dedicated to managing a protocol; it contains a Sender whose other side is
owned by the protocol’s task.
Traits
Can be used to specify and enable network handshakes. Upon establishing a connection, both sides will need to adhere to the specified handshake rules in order to finalize the connection and be able to send or receive any messages.
Can be used to specify and enable reading, i.e. receiving inbound messages. If handshaking is enabled too, it goes into force only after the handshake has been concluded.
Can be used to specify and enable writing, i.e. sending outbound messages. If handshaking is enabled too, it goes into force only after the handshake has been concluded.
Type Definitions
An object allowing a Connection to be “borrowed” from the owning Node to enable a protocol
and to be sent back to it once it’s done its job.
