//! Provides client-side functionality to connect to a XayNet service. //! //! This functionality includes: //! //! * Abiding by (the underlying [`Participant`]'s side of) the PET protocol. //! * Handling the network communication with the XayNet service, including //! polling of service data. //! //! # Participant //! In any given round of federated learning, each [`Participant`] of the //! protocol is characterised by a role which determines its [`Task`] to carry //! out in the round, and which is computed by [`check_task`]. //! //! Participants selected to `Update` are responsible for sending masked model //! updates in the form of PET messages constructed with //! [`compose_update_message`]. //! //! Participants selected to `Sum` are responsible for sending ephemeral keys //! and global masks in PET messages constructed respectively with //! [`compose_sum_message`] and [`compose_sum2_message`]. //! //! # Client //! A [`Client`] has an intentionally simple API - the idea is that it is //! initialised with some settings, and then [`start()`]ed. Currently for //! simplicity, clients that have started running will do so indefinitely. It is //! therefore the user's responsibility to terminate clients that are no longer //! needed. Alternatively, it may be more convenient to run just a single round //! (or a known fixed number of rounds). In this case, use [`during_round()`]. //! For examples of usage, see the `test-drive` scripts. //! //! **Note.** At present, the [`Client`] implementation is somewhat tightly //! coupled with the workings of the C-API SDK, but this may well change in a //! future version to be more independently reusable. //! //! ## Requests via Proxy //! There is a [`Proxy`] which a [`Client`] can use to communicate with the //! service. To summarise, the proxy: //! //! * Wraps either an in-memory service (for local comms) or a _client request_ //! object (for remote comms over HTTP). //! * In the latter case, deals with logging and wrapping of network errors. //! * Deals with deserialization //! //! The client request object is responsible for building the HTTP request and //! extracting the response body. As an example: //! //! ```no_rust //! async fn get_sums(&self) -> Result<Option<bytes::Bytes>, reqwest::Error> //! ``` //! //! issues a GET request for the sum dictionary. The return type reflects the //! presence of networking `Error`s, but also the situation where the dictionary //! is simply just not yet available on the service. That is, the type also //! reflects the _optionality_ of the data availability. //! //! [`Proxy`] essentially takes this (deserializing the `Bytes` into a `SumDict` //! while handling `Error`s into [`ClientError`]s) to expose the overall method //! //! ```no_rust //! async fn get_sums(&self) -> Result<Option<SumDict>, ClientError> //! ``` //! //!
