Cap'n Proto bindings for Go

License CodeQuality Go GoDoc Matrix

Cap’n Proto is an insanely fast data interchange format similar to Protocol Buffers, but much faster.

It also includes a sophisticated RPC system based on Object Capabilities, ideal for secure, low-latency applications.

This package provides:

  • Go code-generation for Cap'n Proto
  • Runtime support for the Go language
  • Level 1 support for the Cap'n Proto RPC protocol

Support for Level 3 RPC is planned.

API Compatibility

Until the official Cap'n Proto spec is finalized, this repository should be considered beta software.

We use semantic versioning to track compatibility and signal breaking changes. In the spirit of the Go 1 compatibility guarantee, we will make every effort to avoid making breaking API changes within major version numbers, but nevertheless reserve the right to introduce breaking changes for reasons related to:

  • Security.
  • Changes in the Cap'n Proto specification.
  • Bugs.

An exception to this rule is currently in place for the pogs package, which is relatively new and may change over time. However, its functionality has been well-tested, and breaking changes are relatively unlikely.

Note also we may merge breaking changes to the main branch without notice. Users are encouraged to pin their dependencies to a major version, e.g. using the semver-aware features of go get.

Documentation

Overview

Package capnp is a Cap'n Proto library for Go. https://capnproto.org/

Read the Getting Started guide for a tutorial on how to use this package. https://github.com/capnproto/go-capnproto2/wiki/Getting-Started

Generating code

capnpc-go provides the compiler backend for capnp. 

# First, install capnpc-go to $PATH.
go install capnproto.org/go/capnp/v3/capnpc-go
# Then, check out the go-capnp source code:
git clone https://github.com/capnproto/go-capnp /desired/path/to/go-capnp
# Then, generate Go files.
capnp compile -I /desired/path/to/go-capnp/std -ogo *.capnp

capnpc-go requires two annotations for all files: package and import. package is needed to know what package to place at the head of the generated file and what identifier to use when referring to the type from another package. import should be the fully qualified import path and is used to generate import statement from other packages and to detect when two types are in the same package. For example: 

using Go = import "/go.capnp";
$Go.package("main");
$Go.import("capnproto.org/go/capnp/v3/example");

For adding documentation comments to the generated code, there's the doc annotation. This annotation adds the comment to a struct, enum or field so that godoc will pick it up. For example: 

struct Zdate $Go.doc("Zdate represents a calendar date") {
  year  @0   :Int16;
  month @1   :UInt8;
  day   @2   :UInt8 ;
}

Messages and Segments

In Cap'n Proto, the unit of communication is a message. A message consists of one or more segments -- contiguous blocks of memory. This allows large messages to be split up and loaded independently or lazily. Typically you will use one segment per message. Logically, a message is organized in a tree of objects, with the root always being a struct (as opposed to a list or primitive). Messages can be read from and written to a stream.

The Message and Segment types are the main types that application code will use from this package. The Message type has methods for marshaling and unmarshaling its segments to the wire format. If the application needs to read or write from a stream, it should use the Encoder and Decoder types.

Pointers

The type for a generic reference to a Cap'n Proto object is Ptr. A Ptr can refer to a struct, a list, or an interface. Ptr, Struct, List, and Interface (the pointer types) have value semantics and refer to data in a single segment. All of the pointer types have a notion of "valid". An invalid pointer will return the default value from any accessor and panic when any setter is called.

In previous versions of this package, the Pointer interface was used instead of the Ptr struct. This interface and functions that use it are now deprecated. See https://github.com/capnproto/go-capnproto2/wiki/New-Ptr-Type for details about this API change.

Data accessors and setters (i.e. struct primitive fields and list elements) do not return errors, but pointer accessors and setters do. There are a few reasons that a read or write of a pointer can fail, but the most common are bad pointers or allocation failures. For accessors, an invalid object will be returned in case of an error.

Since Go doesn't have generics, wrapper types provide type safety on lists. This package provides lists of basic types, and capnpc-go generates list wrappers for named types. However, if you need to use deeper nesting of lists (e.g. List(List(UInt8))), you will need to use a PointerList and wrap the elements.

Structs

For the following schema: 

struct Foo @0x8423424e9b01c0af {
  num @0 :UInt32;
  bar @1 :Foo;
}

capnpc-go will generate: 

// Foo is a pointer to a Foo struct in a segment.
// Member functions are provided to get/set members in the
// struct.
type Foo struct{ capnp.Struct }

// Foo_TypeID is the unique identifier for the type Foo.
// It remains the same across languages and schema changes.
const Foo_TypeID = 0x8423424e9b01c0af

// NewFoo creates a new orphaned Foo struct, preferring placement in
// s.  If there isn't enough space, then another segment in the
// message will be used or allocated.  You can set a field of type Foo
// to this new message, but usually you will want to use the
// NewBar()-style method shown below.
func NewFoo(s *capnp.Segment) (Foo, error)

// NewRootFoo creates a new Foo struct and sets the message's root to
// it.
func NewRootFoo(s *capnp.Segment) (Foo, error)

// ReadRootFoo reads the message's root pointer and converts it to a
// Foo struct.
func ReadRootFoo(msg *capnp.Message) (Foo, error)

// Num returns the value of the num field.
func (s Foo) Num() uint32

// SetNum sets the value of the num field to v.
func (s Foo) SetNum(v uint32)

// Bar returns the value of the bar field.  This can return an error
// if the pointer goes beyond the segment's range, the segment fails
// to load, or the pointer recursion limit has been reached.
func (s Foo) Bar() (Foo, error)

// HasBar reports whether the bar field was initialized (non-null).
func (s Foo) HasBar() bool

// SetBar sets the value of the bar field to v.
func (s Foo) SetBar(v Foo) error

// NewBar sets the bar field to a newly allocated Foo struct,
// preferring placement in s's segment.
func (s Foo) NewBar() (Foo, error)

// Foo_List is a value with pointer semantics. It is created for all
// structs, and is used for List(Foo) in the capnp file.
type Foo_List struct{ capnp.List }

// NewFoo_List creates a new orphaned List(Foo), preferring placement
// in s. This can then be added to a message by using a Set function
// which takes a Foo_List. sz specifies the number of elements in the
// list.  The list's size cannot be changed after creation.
func NewFoo_List(s *capnp.Segment, sz int32) Foo_List

// Len returns the number of elements in the list.
func (s Foo_List) Len() int

// At returns a pointer to the i'th element. If i is an invalid index,
// this will return an invalid Foo (all getters will return default
// values, setters will fail).
func (s Foo_List) At(i int) Foo

// Foo_Promise is a promise for a Foo.  Methods are provided to get
// promises of struct and interface fields.
type Foo_Promise struct{ *capnp.Pipeline }

// Get waits until the promise is resolved and returns the result.
func (p Foo_Promise) Get() (Foo, error)

// Bar returns a promise for that bar field.
func (p Foo_Promise) Bar() Foo_Promise

Groups

For each group a typedef is created with a different method set for just the groups fields: 

struct Foo {
	group :Group {
		field @0 :Bool;
	}
}

generates the following: 

type Foo struct{ capnp.Struct }
type Foo_group Foo

func (s Foo) Group() Foo_group
func (s Foo_group) Field() bool

That way the following may be used to access a field in a group: 

var f Foo
value := f.Group().Field()

Note that group accessors just convert the type and so have no overhead.

Unions

Named unions are treated as a group with an inner unnamed union. Unnamed unions generate an enum Type_Which and a corresponding Which() function: 

struct Foo {
	union {
		a @0 :Bool;
		b @1 :Bool;
	}
}

generates the following: 

type Foo_Which uint16

const (
	Foo_Which_a Foo_Which = 0
	Foo_Which_b Foo_Which = 1
)

func (s Foo) A() bool
func (s Foo) B() bool
func (s Foo) SetA(v bool)
func (s Foo) SetB(v bool)
func (s Foo) Which() Foo_Which

Which() should be checked before using the getters, and the default case must always be handled.

Setters for single values will set the union discriminator as well as set the value.

For voids in unions, there is a void setter that just sets the discriminator. For example: 

struct Foo {
	union {
		a @0 :Void;
		b @1 :Void;
	}
}

generates the following: 

func (s Foo) SetA() // Set that we are using A
func (s Foo) SetB() // Set that we are using B

Similarly, for groups in unions, there is a group setter that just sets the discriminator. This must be called before the group getter can be used to set values. For example: 

struct Foo {
	union {
		a :group {
			v :Bool
		}
		b :group {
			v :Bool
		}
	}
}

and in usage: 

f.SetA()         // Set that we are using group A
f.A().SetV(true) // then we can use the group A getter to set the inner values

Enums

capnpc-go generates enum values as constants. For example in the capnp file: 

enum ElementSize {
  empty @0;
  bit @1;
  byte @2;
  twoBytes @3;
  fourBytes @4;
  eightBytes @5;
  pointer @6;
  inlineComposite @7;
}

In the generated capnp.go file: 

type ElementSize uint16

const (
	ElementSize_empty           ElementSize = 0
	ElementSize_bit             ElementSize = 1
	ElementSize_byte            ElementSize = 2
	ElementSize_twoBytes        ElementSize = 3
	ElementSize_fourBytes       ElementSize = 4
	ElementSize_eightBytes      ElementSize = 5
	ElementSize_pointer         ElementSize = 6
	ElementSize_inlineComposite ElementSize = 7
)

In addition an enum.String() function is generated that will convert the constants to a string for debugging or logging purposes. By default, the enum name is used as the tag value, but the tags can be customized with a $Go.tag or $Go.notag annotation.

For example: 

enum ElementSize {
	empty @0           $Go.tag("void");
	bit @1             $Go.tag("1 bit");
	byte @2            $Go.tag("8 bits");
	inlineComposite @7 $Go.notag;
}

In the generated go file: 

func (c ElementSize) String() string {
	switch c {
	case ElementSize_empty:
		return "void"
	case ElementSize_bit:
		return "1 bit"
	case ElementSize_byte:
		return "8 bits"
	default:
		return ""
	}
}

Interfaces

capnpc-go generates type-safe Client wrappers for interfaces. For parameter lists and result lists, structs are generated as described above with the names Interface_method_Params and Interface_method_Results, unless a single struct type is used. For example, for this interface: 

interface Calculator {
	evaluate @0 (expression :Expression) -> (value :Value);
}

capnpc-go generates the following Go code (along with the structs Calculator_evaluate_Params and Calculator_evaluate_Results): 

// Calculator is a client to a Calculator interface.
type Calculator struct{ Client capnp.Client }

// Evaluate calls `evaluate` on the client.  params is called on a newly
// allocated Calculator_evaluate_Params struct to fill in the parameters.
func (c Calculator) Evaluate(
	ctx context.Context,
	params func(Calculator_evaluate_Params) error,
	opts ...capnp.CallOption) *Calculator_evaluate_Results_Promise

capnpc-go also generates code to implement the interface: 

// A Calculator_Server implements the Calculator interface.
type Calculator_Server interface {
	Evaluate(context.Context, Calculator_evaluate_Call) error
}

// Calculator_evaluate_Call holds the arguments for a Calculator.evaluate server call.
type Calculator_evaluate_Call struct {
	Params  Calculator_evaluate_Params
	Results Calculator_evaluate_Results
	Options capnp.CallOptions
}

// Calculator_ServerToClient is equivalent to calling:
// NewCalculator(capnp.NewServer(Calculator_Methods(nil, s), s))
// If s does not implement the Close method, then nil is used.
func Calculator_ServerToClient(s Calculator_Server) Calculator

// Calculator_Methods appends methods from Calculator that call to server and
// returns the methods.  If methods is nil or the capacity of the underlying
// slice is too small, a new slice is returned.
func Calculator_Methods(methods []server.Method, s Calculator_Server) []server.Method

Since a single capability may want to implement many interfaces, you can use multiple *_Methods functions to build a single slice to send to NewServer.

An example of combining the client/server code to communicate with a locally implemented Calculator: 

var srv Calculator_Server
calc := Calculator_ServerToClient(srv)
result := calc.Evaluate(ctx, func(params Calculator_evaluate_Params) {
	params.SetExpression(expr)
})
val := result.Value().Get()

A note about message ordering: by default, only one method per server will be invoked at a time; when implementing a server method which blocks or takes a long time, you calling the server.Go function to unblock future calls.

Example 
// Make a brand new empty message.
msg, seg, err := capnp.NewMessage(capnp.SingleSegment(nil))
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

// If you want runtime-type identification, this is easily obtained. Just
// wrap everything in a struct that contains a single anoymous union (e.g. struct Z).
// Then always set a Z as the root object in you message/first segment.
// The cost of the extra word of storage is usually worth it, as
// then human readable output is easily obtained via a shell command such as
//
// $ cat binary.cpz | capnp decode aircraft.capnp Z
//
// If you need to conserve space, and know your content in advance, it
// isn't necessary to use an anonymous union. Just supply the type name
// in place of 'Z' in the decode command above.

// There can only be one root.  Subsequent NewRoot* calls will set the root
// pointer and orphan the previous root.
z, err := air.NewRootZ(seg)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

// then non-root objects:
aircraft, err := z.NewAircraft()
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
b737, err := aircraft.NewB737()
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
planebase, err := b737.NewBase()
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

// Set primitive fields
planebase.SetCanFly(true)
planebase.SetName("Henrietta")
planebase.SetRating(100)
planebase.SetMaxSpeed(876) // km/hr
// if we don't set capacity, it will get the default value, in this case 0.
//planebase.SetCapacity(26020) // Liters fuel

// Creating a list
homes, err := planebase.NewHomes(2)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
homes.Set(0, air.Airport_jfk)
homes.Set(1, air.Airport_lax)

// Ready to write!

// You can write to memory...
buf, err := msg.Marshal()
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
_ = buf

// ... or write to an io.Writer.
file, err := os.CreateTemp("", "go-capnproto")
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
defer file.Close()
defer os.Remove(file.Name())
err = capnp.NewEncoder(file).Encode(msg)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

Functions

func Canonicalize 

func Canonicalize(s Struct) ([]byte, error)

Canonicalize encodes a struct into its canonical form: a single- segment blob without a segment table. The result will be identical for equivalent structs, even as the schema evolves. The blob is suitable for hashing or signing.

func Disconnected 

func Disconnected(s string) error

Disconnected returns an error that formats as the given text and will report true when passed to IsDisconnected.

func Equal 

func Equal(p1, p2 Ptr) (bool, error)

Equal returns true iff p1 and p2 are equal.

Equality is defined to be:

  • Two structs are equal iff all of their fields are equal. If one struct has more fields than the other, the extra fields must all be zero.
  • Two lists are equal iff they have the same length and their corresponding elements are equal. If one list is a list of primitives and the other is a list of structs, then the list of primitives is treated as if it was a list of structs with the element value as the sole field.
  • Two interfaces are equal iff they point to a capability created by the same call to NewClient or they are referring to the same capability table index in the same message. The latter is significant when the message's capability table has not been populated.
  • Two null pointers are equal.
  • All other combinations of things are not equal.

func IsDisconnected 

func IsDisconnected(e error) bool

IsDisconnected reports whether e indicates a failure due to loss of a necessary capability.

func IsUnimplemented 

func IsUnimplemented(e error) bool

IsUnimplemented reports whether e indicates that functionality is unimplemented.

func NewMessage 

func NewMessage(arena Arena) (*Message, *Segment, error)

NewMessage creates a message with a new root and returns the first segment. It is an error to call NewMessage on an arena with data in it.

func NewMultiSegmentMessage 

func NewMultiSegmentMessage(b [][]byte) (msg *Message, first *Segment)

Analogous to NewSingleSegmentMessage, but using MultiSegment.

func NewPromisedClient 

func NewPromisedClient(hook ClientHook) (Client, Resolver[Client])

NewPromisedClient creates the first reference to a capability that can resolve to a different capability. The hook will be shut down when the promise is resolved or the client has no more references, whichever comes first.

Typically the RPC system will create a client for the application. Most applications will not need to use this directly.

func NewSingleSegmentMessage 

func NewSingleSegmentMessage(b []byte) (msg *Message, first *Segment)

NewSingleSegmentMessage(b) is equivalent to NewMessage(SingleSegment(b)), except that it panics instead of returning an error. This can only happen if the passed slice contains data, so the caller is responsible for ensuring that it has a length of zero.

func SamePtr 

func SamePtr(p, q Ptr) bool

SamePtr reports whether p and q refer to the same object.

func SetClientLeakFunc 

func SetClientLeakFunc(clientLeakFunc func(msg string))

SetClientLeakFunc sets a callback for reporting Clients that went out of scope without being released. The callback is not guaranteed to be called and must be safe to call concurrently from multiple goroutines. The exact format of the message is unspecified.

SetClientLeakFunc must not be called after any calls to NewClient or NewPromisedClient.

func Unimplemented 

func Unimplemented(s string) error

Unimplemented returns an error that formats as the given text and will report true when passed to IsUnimplemented.

Types

type Answer 

type Answer struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

An Answer is a deferred result of a client call. Conceptually, this is a future. It is safe to use from multiple goroutines.

func ErrorAnswer 

func ErrorAnswer(m Method, e error) *Answer

ErrorAnswer returns a Answer that always returns error e.

func ImmediateAnswer 

func ImmediateAnswer(m Method, ptr Ptr) *Answer

ImmediateAnswer returns an Answer that accesses ptr.

func (*Answer) Client 

func (ans *Answer) Client() Client

Client returns the answer as a client. If the answer's originating call has not completed, then calls will be queued until the original call's completion. The client reference is borrowed: the caller should not call Close.

func (*Answer) Done 

func (ans *Answer) Done() <-chan struct{}

Done returns a channel that is closed when the answer's call is finished.

func (*Answer) Field 

func (ans *Answer) Field(off uint16, def []byte) *Future

Field returns a derived future which yields the pointer field given, defaulting to the value given.

func (*Answer) Future 

func (ans *Answer) Future() *Future

Future returns a future that is equivalent to ans.

func (*Answer) List 

func (ans *Answer) List() (List, error)

List waits until the answer is resolved and returns the list this answer represents.

func (*Answer) Metadata 

func (ans *Answer) Metadata() *Metadata

Metadata returns a metadata map where callers can store information about the answer

func (*Answer) PipelineRecv 

func (ans *Answer) PipelineRecv(ctx context.Context, transform []PipelineOp, r Recv) PipelineCaller

PipelineRecv starts a pipelined call.

func (*Answer) PipelineSend 

func (ans *Answer) PipelineSend(ctx context.Context, transform []PipelineOp, s Send) (*Answer, ReleaseFunc)

PipelineSend starts a pipelined call.

func (*Answer) Struct 

func (ans *Answer) Struct() (Struct, error)

Struct waits until the answer is resolved and returns the struct this answer represents.

type AnswerQueue 

type AnswerQueue struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

AnswerQueue is a queue of method calls to make after an earlier method call finishes. The queue is unbounded; it is the caller's responsibility to manage/impose backpressure.

An AnswerQueue can be in one of three states:

  1. Queueing. Incoming method calls will be added to the queue.
  2. Draining, entered by calling Fulfill or Reject. Queued method calls will be delivered in sequence, and new incoming method calls will block until the AnswerQueue enters the Drained state.
  3. Drained, entered once all queued methods have been delivered. Incoming methods are passthrough.

func NewAnswerQueue 

func NewAnswerQueue(m Method) *AnswerQueue

NewAnswerQueue creates a new answer queue.

func (*AnswerQueue) Fulfill 

func (aq *AnswerQueue) Fulfill(ptr Ptr)

Fulfill empties the queue, delivering the method calls on the given pointer. After fulfill returns, pipeline calls will be immediately delivered instead of being queued.

func (*AnswerQueue) PipelineRecv 

func (aq *AnswerQueue) PipelineRecv(ctx context.Context, transform []PipelineOp, r Recv) PipelineCaller

func (*AnswerQueue) PipelineSend 

func (aq *AnswerQueue) PipelineSend(ctx context.Context, transform []PipelineOp, r Send) (*Answer, ReleaseFunc)

func (*AnswerQueue) Reject 

func (aq *AnswerQueue) Reject(e error)

Reject empties the queue, returning errors on all the method calls.

type Arena 

type Arena interface {
	// NumSegments returns the number of segments in the arena.
	// This must not be larger than 1<<32.
	NumSegments() int64

	// Data loads the data for the segment with the given ID.  IDs are in
	// the range [0, NumSegments()).
	// must be tightly packed in the range [0, NumSegments()).
	Data(id SegmentID) ([]byte, error)

	// Allocate selects a segment to place a new object in, creating a
	// segment or growing the capacity of a previously loaded segment if
	// necessary.  If Allocate does not return an error, then the
	// difference of the capacity and the length of the returned slice
	// must be at least minsz.  segs is a map of segments keyed by ID
	// using arrays returned by the Data method (although the length of
	// these slices may have changed by previous allocations).  Allocate
	// must not modify segs.
	//
	// If Allocate creates a new segment, the ID must be one larger than
	// the last segment's ID or zero if it is the first segment.
	//
	// If Allocate returns an previously loaded segment's ID, then the
	// arena is responsible for preserving the existing data in the
	// returned byte slice.
	Allocate(minsz Size, segs map[SegmentID]*Segment) (SegmentID, []byte, error)

	// Release all resources associated with the Arena. Callers MUST NOT
	// use the Arena after it has been released.
	//
	// Calling Release() is OPTIONAL, but may reduce allocations.
	//
	// Implementations MAY use Release() as a signal to return resources
	// to free lists, or otherwise reuse the Arena.   However, they MUST
	// NOT assume Release() will be called.
	Release()
}

An Arena loads and allocates segments for a Message.

func (ct *CapTable) Reset(cs ...Client)

Reset the cap table, releasing all capabilities and setting the length to zero. Clients passed as arguments are added to the table after zeroing, such that ct.Len() == len(cs).

func (CapTable) Set 

func (ct CapTable) Set(id CapabilityID, c Client)

Set the client for the supplied capability ID. If a client for the given ID already exists, it will be replaced without releasing.

type CapabilityID 

type CapabilityID uint32

A CapabilityID is an index into a message's capability table.

func (CapabilityID) GoString 

func (id CapabilityID) GoString() string

GoString returns the ID as a Go expression.

func (CapabilityID) String 

func (id CapabilityID) String() string

String returns the ID in the format "capability X".

type Client 

type Client ClientKind

A Client is a reference to a Cap'n Proto capability. The zero value is a null capability reference. It is safe to use from multiple goroutines.

func ErrorClient 

func ErrorClient(e error) Client

ErrorClient returns a Client that always returns error e. An ErrorClient does not need to be released: it is a sentinel like a nil Client.

The returned client's State() method returns a State with its Brand.Value set to e.

func NewClient 

func NewClient(hook ClientHook) Client

NewClient creates the first reference to a capability. If hook is nil, then NewClient returns nil.

Typically the RPC system will create a client for the application. Most applications will not need to use this directly.

func (Client) AddRef 

func (c Client) AddRef() Client

AddRef creates a new Client that refers to the same capability as c. If c is nil or has resolved to null, then AddRef returns nil.

func (Client) DecodeFromPtr

func (c Client) GetFlowLimiter() flowcontrol.FlowLimiter

Get the current flowcontrol.FlowLimiter used to manage flow control for this client.

func (Client) IsSame 

func (c Client) IsSame(c2 Client) bool

IsSame reports whether c and c2 refer to a capability created by the same call to NewClient. This can return false negatives if c or c2 are not fully resolved: use Resolve if this is an issue. If either c or c2 are released, then IsSame panics.

func (Client) IsValid 

func (c Client) IsValid() bool

IsValid reports whether c is a valid reference to a capability. A reference is invalid if it is nil, has resolved to null, or has been released.

func (Client) RecvCall 

func (c Client) RecvCall(ctx context.Context, r Recv) PipelineCaller

RecvCall starts executing a method with the referenced arguments and returns an answer that will hold the result. The hook will call a.Release when it no longer needs to reference the parameters. The caller must call the returned release function when it no longer needs the answer's data.

Note that unlike SendCall, this method does *not* respect the flow control policy configured with SetFlowLimiter.

func (Client) Release 

func (c Client) Release()

Release releases a capability reference. If this is the last reference to the capability, then the underlying resources associated with the capability will be released.

Release has no effect if c has already been released, or if c is nil or resolved to null.

func (Client) Resolve 

func (c Client) Resolve(ctx context.Context) error

Resolve blocks until the capability is fully resolved or the Context is Done. Resolve only returns an error if the context is canceled; it returns nil even if the capability resolves to an error.

func (Client) SendCall 

func (c Client) SendCall(ctx context.Context, s Send) (*Answer, ReleaseFunc)

SendCall allocates space for parameters, calls args.Place to fill out the parameters, then starts executing a method, returning an answer that will hold the result. The caller must call the returned release function when it no longer needs the answer's data.

This method respects the flow control policy configured with SetFlowLimiter; it may block if the sender is sending too fast.

func (Client) SendStreamCall 

func (c Client) SendStreamCall(ctx context.Context, s Send) error

SendStreamCall is like SendCall except that:

  1. It does not return an answer for the eventual result.
  2. If the call returns an error, all future calls on this client will return the same error (without starting the method or calling PlaceArgs).

func (Client) SetFlowLimiter 

func (c Client) SetFlowLimiter(lim flowcontrol.FlowLimiter)

Update the flowcontrol.FlowLimiter used to manage flow control for this client. This affects all future calls, but not calls already waiting to send. Passing nil sets the value to flowcontrol.NopLimiter, which is also the default.

When .Release() is called on the client, it will call .Release() on the FlowLimiter in turn.

func (Client) State 

func (c Client) State() ClientState

State reads the current state of the client. It returns the zero ClientState if c is nil, has resolved to null, or has been released.

func (Client) String 

func (c Client) String() string

String returns a string that identifies this capability for debugging purposes. Its format should not be depended on: in particular, it should not be used to compare clients. Use IsSame to compare clients for equality.

func (Client) WaitStreaming 

func (c Client) WaitStreaming() error

WaitStreaming waits for all outstanding streaming calls (i.e. calls started with SendStreamCall) to complete, and then returns an error if any streaming call has failed.

func (Client) WeakRef 

func (c Client) WeakRef() *WeakClient

WeakRef creates a new WeakClient that refers to the same capability as c. If c is nil or has resolved to null, then WeakRef returns nil.

type ClientHook 

type ClientHook interface {
	// Send allocates space for parameters, calls s.PlaceArgs to fill out
	// the arguments, then starts executing a method, returning an answer
	// that will hold the result.  The hook must call s.PlaceArgs at most
	// once, and if it does call s.PlaceArgs, it must return before Send
	// returns.  The caller must call the returned release function when
	// it no longer needs the answer's data.
	//
	// Send is typically used when application code is making a call.
	Send(ctx context.Context, s Send) (*Answer, ReleaseFunc)

	// Recv starts executing a method with the referenced arguments
	// and places the result in a message controlled by the caller.
	// The hook will call r.ReleaseArgs when it no longer needs to
	// reference the parameters and use r.Returner to complete the method
	// call.  If Recv does not call r.Returner.Return before it returns,
	// then it must return a non-nil PipelineCaller.
	//
	// Recv is typically used when the RPC system has received a call.
	Recv(ctx context.Context, r Recv) PipelineCaller

	// Brand returns an implementation-specific value.  This can be used
	// to introspect and identify kinds of clients.
	Brand() Brand

	// Shutdown releases any resources associated with this capability.
	// The behavior of calling any methods on the receiver after calling
	// Shutdown is undefined.  It is expected for the ClientHook to reject
	// any outstanding call futures.
	Shutdown()

	// String formats the hook as a string (same as fmt.Stringer)
	String() string
}

A ClientHook represents a Cap'n Proto capability. Application code should not pass around ClientHooks; applications should pass around Clients. A ClientHook must be safe to use from multiple goroutines.

Calls must be delivered to the capability in the order they are made. This guarantee is based on the concept of a capability acknowledging delivery of a call: this is specific to an implementation of ClientHook. A type that implements ClientHook must guarantee that if foo() then bar() is called on a client, then the capability acknowledging foo() happens before the capability observing bar().

ClientHook is an internal interface. Users generally SHOULD NOT supply their own implementations.

type ClientKind 

type ClientKind = struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

The underlying type of Client. We expose this so that we can use ~ClientKind as a constraint in generics to capture any capability type.

type ClientState 

type ClientState struct {
	// Brand is the value returned from the hook's Brand method.
	Brand Brand
	// IsPromise is true if the client has not resolved yet.
	IsPromise bool
	// Arbitrary metadata. Note that, if a Client is a promise,
	// when it resolves its metadata will be replaced with that
	// of its resolution.
	//
	// TODO: this might change before the v3 API is stabilized;
	// we are not sure the above is the correct semantics.
	Metadata *Metadata
}

ClientState is a snapshot of a client's identity.

type Message 

type Message struct {
	Arena Arena

	// TraverseLimit limits how many total bytes of data are allowed to be
	// traversed while reading.  Traversal is counted when a Struct or
	// List is obtained.  This means that calling a getter for the same
	// sub-struct multiple times will cause it to be double-counted.  Once
	// the traversal limit is reached, pointer accessors will report
	// errors. See https://capnproto.org/encoding.html#amplification-attack
	// for more details on this security measure.
	//
	// If not set, this defaults to 64 MiB.
	TraverseLimit uint64

func Unmarshal 

func Unmarshal(data []byte) (*Message, error)

Unmarshal reads an unpacked serialized stream into a message. No copying is performed, so the objects in the returned message read directly from data.

Example

if err != nil {
	fmt.Printf("allocation error %v\n", err)
	return
}
d, err := air.NewRootZdate(s)

d.SetDay(7)
data, err := msg.Marshal()
if err != nil {

}

// Read
msg, err = capnp.Unmarshal(data)
if err != nil {
	fmt.Printf("unmarshal error %v\n", err)
	return
}
d, err = air.ReadRootZdate(msg)
if err != nil {
