Expand description
Implementation of a Kademlia routing table as used by a single peer participating in a Kademlia DHT.
The entry point for the API of this module is a KBucketsTable.
Pending Insertions
When the bucket associated with the Key of an inserted entry is full
but contains disconnected nodes, it accepts a PendingEntry.
Pending entries are inserted lazily when their timeout is found to be expired
upon querying the KBucketsTable. When that happens, the KBucketsTable records
an AppliedPending result which must be consumed by calling take_applied_pending
regularly and / or after performing lookup operations like entry and closest.
Structs
An entry that is not present in any bucket.
The result of applying a pending node to a bucket, possibly
replacing an existing node.
A distance between two keys in the DHT keyspace.
An immutable by-reference view of a bucket entry.
A cloned, immutable view of an entry that is either present in a bucket
or pending insertion.
A reference to a bucket in a
KBucketsTable.A
KBucketsTable represents a Kademlia routing table.A
Key in the DHT keyspace with preserved preimage.The raw bytes of a key in the DHT keyspace.
A
Node in a bucket, representing a peer participating
in the Kademlia DHT together with an associated value (e.g. contact
information).An immutable by-reference view of a
Node.An entry waiting for a slot to be available in a bucket.
An entry present in a bucket.
Enums
A reference into a single entry of a
KBucketsTable.The result of inserting an entry into a bucket.
The status of a node in a bucket.
Constants
The
k parameter of the Kademlia specification.
