Functions

func EncodeMessage

func EncodeMessage(msg Message) []byte

EncodeMessage takes a message and returns a representation of it as a byte array as the message would appear in the database. This array is missing the the standard bitmessage header that goes along with every message sent over the p2p connection.

func EncodeMsgObjectHeader

func EncodeMsgObjectHeader(w io.Writer, nonce uint64, expiresTime time.Time,
	objectType ObjectType, version uint64, streamNumber uint64) error

EncodeMsgObjectHeader encodes the object header to the given writer. Object header consists of Nonce, ExpiresTime, ObjectType, Version and Stream, in that order. Read Protocol Specifications for more information.

func RandomUint64

func RandomUint64() (uint64, error)

RandomUint64 returns a cryptographically random uint64 value.

func WriteMessage

func WriteMessage(w io.Writer, msg Message, bmnet BitmessageNet) error

WriteMessage writes a bitmessage Message to w including the necessary header information. This function is the same as WriteMessageN except it doesn't doesn't return the number of bytes written. This function is mainly provided for backwards compatibility with the original API, but it's also useful for callers that don't care about byte counts.

func WriteMessageN

func WriteMessageN(w io.Writer, msg Message, bmnet BitmessageNet) (int, error)

WriteMessageN writes a bitmessage Message to w including the necessary header information and returns the number of bytes written. This function is the same as WriteMessage except it also returns the number of bytes written.

Types

type BitmessageNet

type BitmessageNet uint32

BitmessageNet represents which bitmessage network a message belongs to.

const (
	// MainNet represents the main bitmessage network.
	MainNet BitmessageNet = 0xe9beb4d9
)

Constants used to indicate the message bitmessage network. They can also be used to seek to the next message when a stream's state is unknown, but this package does not provide that functionality since it's generally a better idea to simply disconnect clients that are misbehaving over TCP.

func (BitmessageNet) String

func (n BitmessageNet) String() string

String returns the BitmessageNet in human-readable form.

type InvVect

type InvVect struct {
	Hash ShaHash // Hash of the data
}

InvVect defines a bitmessage inventory vector which is used to describe data, as specified by the Type field, that a peer wants, has, or does not have to another peer.

func NewInvVect

func NewInvVect(hash *ShaHash) *InvVect

NewInvVect returns a new InvVect using the provided type and hash.

type Message

type Message interface {
	Decode(io.Reader) error
	Encode(io.Writer) error
	Command() string
	MaxPayloadLength() int
}

Message is an interface that describes a bitmessage message. A type that implements Message has complete control over the representation of its data and may therefore contain additional or fewer fields than those which are used directly in the protocol encoded message.

func DecodeMsgObject

func DecodeMsgObject(obj []byte) (Message, error)

DecodeMsgObject takes a byte array and turns it into an object message.

func ReadMessage

func ReadMessage(r io.Reader, bmnet BitmessageNet) (Message, []byte, error)

ReadMessage reads, validates, and parses the next bitmessage Message from r for bitmessage network. It returns the parsed Message and raw bytes which comprise the message. This function only differs from ReadMessageN in that it doesn't return the number of bytes read. This function is useful for callers that don't care about byte counts.

func ReadMessageN

func ReadMessageN(r io.Reader, bmnet BitmessageNet) (int, Message, []byte, error)

ReadMessageN reads, validates, and parses the next bitmessage Message from r for the provided protocol version and bitmessage network. It returns the number of bytes read in addition to the parsed Message and raw bytes which comprise the message. This function is the same as ReadMessage except it also returns the number of bytes read.

type MessageError

type MessageError struct {
	Func        string // Function name
	Description string // Human readable description of the issue
}

MessageError describes an issue with a message. An example of some potential issues are messages from the wrong bitmessage network, invalid commands, mismatched checksums, and exceeding max payloads.

This provides a mechanism for the caller to type assert the error to differentiate between general io errors such as io.EOF and issues that resulted from malformed messages.

func (*MessageError) Error

type ObjectType

type ObjectType uint32

ObjectType represents the type of object than an object message contains. Objects in bitmessage are things on the network that get propagated. This can include requests/responses for pubkeys, messages and broadcasts.

const (
	ObjectTypeGetPubKey ObjectType = 0
	ObjectTypePubKey    ObjectType = 1
	ObjectTypeMsg       ObjectType = 2
	ObjectTypeBroadcast ObjectType = 3
)

There are five types of objects in bitmessage.

  • GetPubKey: requests for public keys.
  • PubKey: public keys sent in response.
  • Msg: bitmessage messages.
  • Broadcast: broadcast messages.

An ObjectType can also take on other values representing unknown message types.

func DecodeMsgObjectHeader

func DecodeMsgObjectHeader(r io.Reader) (nonce uint64, expiresTime time.Time,
	objectType ObjectType, version uint64, streamNumber uint64, err error)

DecodeMsgObjectHeader decodes the object header from given reader. Object header consists of Nonce, ExpiresTime, ObjectType, Version and Stream, in that order. Read Protocol Specifications for more information.

func (ObjectType) String

type RipeHash

type RipeHash [RipeHashSize]byte

RipeHash is used in several of the bitmessage messages and common structures. It typically represents the double sha512 of ripemd160 of data.

func NewRipeHash

func NewRipeHash(newHash []byte) (*RipeHash, error)

NewRipeHash returns a new RipeHash from a byte slice. An error is returned if the number of bytes passed in is not RipeHashSize.

func NewRipeHashFromStr

func NewRipeHashFromStr(hash string) (*RipeHash, error)

NewRipeHashFromStr creates a RipeHash from a hash string. The string should be the hexadecimal string of a byte hash.

func (*RipeHash) Bytes

func (hash *RipeHash) Bytes() []byte

Bytes returns the bytes which represent the hash as a byte slice.

func (*RipeHash) IsEqual

func (hash *RipeHash) IsEqual(target *RipeHash) bool

IsEqual returns true if target is the same as hash.

func (*RipeHash) SetBytes

func (hash *RipeHash) SetBytes(newHash []byte) error

func (RipeHash) String

func (hash RipeHash) String() string

String returns the RipeHash as the hexadecimal string of the byte-reversed hash.

type ServiceFlag

type ServiceFlag uint64

ServiceFlag identifies services supported by a bitmessage peer.

const (
	// SFNodeNetwork is a flag used to indicate a peer is a full node.
	SFNodeNetwork ServiceFlag = 1 << iota
)

func (ServiceFlag) String

func (f ServiceFlag) String() string

String returns the ServiceFlag in human-readable form.

type ShaHash

type ShaHash [HashSize]byte
