Pascal Precht 1bab7ae056 refactor(communities): improve archive handling memory pressure
Instead of loading the entire torrent file into memory when trying
to extrract active messages, we now only read the chunks that are
necessary to decode any individual archive and then process
extracted messages in chunks.

This doesn't introduce a max cap of allowed memory yet, since the
chunk size depends entirely on the size of the archive, but this
will be done soon.

status-go/protocol

This is an implementation of the secure transport and payloads which are a part of the Status Client specification.

This implementation uses SQLite and SQLCipher for persistent storage.

The payloads are encoded using protocol-buffers.

Content

  • messenger.go is the main file which exports Messenger struct. This is a public API to interact with this implementation of the Status Chat Protocol.
  • protobuf/ contains protobuf files implementing payloads described in the Payloads spec.
  • encryption/ implements the Secure Transport spec.
  • transport/ connects the Status Chat Protocol with a wire-protocol which in our case is either Whisper or Waku.
  • datasync/ is an adapter for MVDS.
  • applicationmetadata/ is an outer layer wrapping a payload with an app-specific metadata like a signature.
  • identity/ implements details related to creating a three-word name and identicon.
  • migrations/ contains implementation specific migrations for the sqlite database which is used by Messenger as a persistent data store.

History

Originally this package was a dedicated repo called status-protocol-go and was migrated into status-go. The new status-go/protocol package maintained its own dependencies until sub modules were removed and the root go.mod file managed all dependencies for the entire status-go repo.
