Modules
Data structures and implementations for sending and receiving messages from peers.
Structs
Used to keep track of peer references that are created only with an endpoint. When dropped, a
request is sent to the PeerManager to remove a reference to the peer, thus removing the peer
if no more references exist.
The PeerManager is in charge of keeping track of peers and their reference counts, as well as
requesting connections from the ConnectionManager. If a peer has disconnected, the
PeerManager will also try the peer’s other endpoints until one is successful.
The PeerManagerConnector will be used to make requests to the PeerManager.
PeerNotificationIter is used to receive notfications from the PeerManager. The notifications
include:
Used to keep track of peer references. When dropped, the PeerRef will send a request to the
PeerManager to remove a reference to the peer, thus removing the peer if no more references
exist.
The Peer ID that contains both the peer’s authorization type at the local authorization for the local node
Enums
The authorization type specific peer ID
Messages that will be dispatched to all subscription handlers
Traits
