> 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
```
## 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()
}
```
