Central repository for work on libp2p

This repository is the central place for Rust development of the libp2p spec.

Getting started

Main documentation can be found on https://docs.rs/libp2p.
The examples folder contains small binaries showcasing the many protocols in this repository.
For security related issues please file a private security vulnerability report . Please do not file a public issue on GitHub.
To report bugs, suggest improvements or request new features please open a GitHub issue on this repository.
For rust-libp2p specific questions please use the GitHub Discussions forum https://github.com/libp2p/rust-libp2p/discussions.
For discussions and questions related to multiple libp2p implementations please use the libp2p Discourse forum https://discuss.libp2p.io.
For synchronous discussions join the open rust-libp2p maintainer calls or the biweekly libp2p community calls.

Repository Structure

The main components of this repository are structured as follows:

core/: The implementation of libp2p-core with its Transport and StreamMuxer API on which almost all other crates depend.
transports/: Implementations of transport protocols (e.g. TCP) and protocol upgrades (e.g. for authenticated encryption, compression, ...) based on the libp2p-core Transport API.
muxers/: Implementations of the StreamMuxer interface of libp2p-core, e.g. (sub)stream multiplexing protocols on top of (typically TCP) connections. Multiplexing protocols are (mandatory) Transport upgrades.
swarm/: The implementation of libp2p-swarm building on libp2p-core with the central interfaces NetworkBehaviour and ConnectionHandler used to implement application protocols (see protocols/).
protocols/: Implementations of application protocols based on the libp2p-swarm APIs.
misc/: Utility libraries.
libp2p/examples/: Worked examples of built-in application protocols (see protocols/) with common Transport configurations.

Community Guidelines

The libp2p project operates under the IPFS Code of Conduct.

tl;dr

Be respectful.

We're here to help: abuse@ipfs.io

Abusive behavior is never tolerated.

Violations of this code may result in swift and permanent expulsion from the IPFS [and libp2p] community.

"Too long, didn't read" is not a valid excuse for not knowing what is in this document.
