Expand description
Implementation of the libp2p circuit relay specification.
§Example
let (relay_transport, relay_behaviour) = new_transport_and_behaviour(
RelayConfig::default(),
MemoryTransport::default(),
);
let transport = relay_transport
.upgrade(upgrade::Version::V1)
.authenticate(plain)
.multiplex(RemuxConfig::default())
.boxed();
let mut swarm = Swarm::new(transport, relay_behaviour, local_peer_id);
let relay_addr = Multiaddr::from_str("/memory/1234").unwrap()
.with(Protocol::P2p(PeerId::random().into()))
.with(Protocol::P2pCircuit);
let dst_addr = relay_addr.clone().with(Protocol::Memory(5678));
// Listen for incoming connections via relay node (1234).
Swarm::listen_on(&mut swarm, relay_addr).unwrap();
// Dial node (5678) via relay node (1234).
Swarm::dial_addr(&mut swarm, dst_addr).unwrap();
§Terminology
§Entities
-
Source: The node initiating a connection via a relay to a destination.
-
Relay: The node being asked by a source to relay to a destination.
-
Destination: The node contacted by the source via the relay.
§Messages
-
Outgoing relay request: The request sent by a source to a relay.
-
Incoming relay request: The request received by a relay from a source.
-
Outgoing destination request: The request sent by a relay to a destination.
-
Incoming destination request: The request received by a destination from a relay.
Structs§
- Network behaviour allowing the local node to act as a source, a relay and a destination.
- The ID of an outgoing / incoming, relay / destination request.
Enums§
- Error that occurred during relay connection setup.
