> an implementation of the multistream protocol in go
|
||
|
|
||
|
This package implements a simple stream router for the multistream-select protocol.
|
||
|
The protocol is defined [here](https://github.com/multiformats/multistream-select).

## Install
|
||
|
|
||
|
`go-multistream` is a standard Go module which can be installed with:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
go get github.com/multiformats/go-multistream
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note that `go-multistream` is packaged with Gx, so it is recommended to use Gx to install and use it (see Usage section).
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Example
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
This example shows how to use a multistream muxer. A muxer uses user-added handlers to handle different "protocols". The first step when interacting with a connection handler by the muxer is to select the protocol (the example uses `SelectProtoOrFail`). This will then let the muxer use the right handler.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
package main
|
||
|
|
||
|
import (
|
||
|
"fmt"
|
||
|
"io"
|
||
|
"io/ioutil"
|
||
|
"net"
|
||
|
|
||
|
ms "github.com/multiformats/go-multistream"
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
|
||
|
// This example creates a multistream muxer, adds handlers for the protocols
|
||
|
// "/cats" and "/dogs" and exposes it on a localhost:8765. It then opens connections
|
||
|
// to that port, selects the protocols and tests that the handlers are working.
|
||
|
func main() {
|
||
|
mux := ms.NewMultistreamMuxer()
|
||
|
mux.AddHandler("/cats", func(proto string, rwc io.ReadWriteCloser) error {
|
||
|
fmt.Fprintln(rwc, proto, ": HELLO I LIKE CATS")
|
||
|
return rwc.Close()
|
||
|
})
|
||
|
mux.AddHandler("/dogs", func(proto string, rwc io.ReadWriteCloser) error {
|
||
|
fmt.Fprintln(rwc, proto, ": HELLO I LIKE DOGS")
|
||
|
return rwc.Close()
|
||
|
})
|
||
|
|
||
|
list, err := net.Listen("tcp", ":8765")
|
||
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
go func() {
|
||
|
for {
|
||
|
con, err := list.Accept()
|
||
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
go mux.Handle(con)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}()
|
||
|
|
||
|
// The Muxer is ready, let's test it
|
||
|
conn, err := net.Dial("tcp", ":8765")
|
||
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Create a new multistream to talk to the muxer
|
||
|
// which will negotiate that we want to talk with /cats
|
||
|
mstream := ms.NewMSSelect(conn, "/cats")
|
||
|
cats, err := ioutil.ReadAll(mstream)
|
||
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
fmt.Printf("%s", cats)
|
||
|
mstream.Close()
|
||
|
|
||
|
// A different way of talking to the muxer
|
||
|
// is to manually selecting the protocol ourselves
|
||
|
conn, err = net.Dial("tcp", ":8765")
|
||
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
defer conn.Close()
|
||
|
err = ms.SelectProtoOrFail("/dogs", conn)
|
||
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
dogs, err := ioutil.ReadAll(conn)
|
||
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
fmt.Printf("%s", dogs)
|
||
|
conn.Close()
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
