[−][src]Crate twilight_gateway
twilight-gateway
twilight-gateway
is an implementation of Discord's sharding gateway sessions.
This is responsible for receiving stateful events in real-time from Discord
and sending some stateful information.
It includes two primary types: the Shard and Cluster.
The Shard handles a single websocket connection and can manage up to 2500 guilds. If you manage a small bot in under about 2000 guilds, then this is what you use. See the Discord docs for more information on sharding.
The Cluster is an interface which manages the health of the shards it manages and proxies all of their events under one unified stream. This is useful to use if you have a large bot in over 1000 or 2000 guilds.
Features
Deserialization
twilight-gateway
supports serde_json
and simd-json
for
deserializing and serializing events.
simd-json
The simd-json
feature enables simd-json
support to use simd features
of modern cpus to deserialize responses faster. It is not enabled by
default.
To use this feature you need to also add these lines to
<project root>/.cargo/config
:
[build]
rustflags = ["-C", "target-cpu=native"]
you can also use this environment variable RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native"
.
[dependencies]
twilight-gateway = { default-features = false, features = ["rustls", "simd-json"], version = "0.2" }
TLS
twilight-gateway
has features to enable async-tungstenite
and
twilight-http
's TLS features. These features are mutually exclusive.
rustls
is enabled by default.
native
The native
feature enables async-tungstenite
's tokio-native-tls
feature as well as twilight-http
's native
feature which is mostly
equivalent to using native-tls
.
To enable native
, do something like this in your Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
twilight-gateway = { default-features = false, features = ["native"], version = "0.2" }
rustls
The rustls
feature enables async-tungstenite
's tokio-rustls
feature and
twilight-http
's rustls
feature, which use rustls
as the TLS backend.
This is enabled by default.
zlib
There are 2 zlib features stock-zlib
and simd-zlib
for the library to work
one of them has to be enabled. If both are enabled it will use stock-zlib
stock-zlib
enabled by default.
Enabling only simd-zlib
will make the library use zlib-ng
which is a modern
fork of zlib that is faster and more effective, but it needs cmake
to compile.
Metrics
The metrics
feature provides metrics information via the metrics
crate.
Some of the metrics logged are counters about received event counts and
their types and gauges about the capacity and efficiency of the inflater of
each shard.
This is disabled by default.
