## # Circuit Relay example ## ## Circuit Relay can be used when a node cannot reach another node ## directly, but can reach it through a another node (the Relay). ## ## That may happen because of NAT, Firewalls, or incompatible transports. ## ## More informations [here](https://docs.libp2p.io/concepts/circuit-relay/). import chronos, stew/byteutils import libp2p, libp2p/protocols/connectivity/relay/[relay, client] # Helper to create a circuit relay node proc createCircuitRelaySwitch(r: Relay): Switch = SwitchBuilder.new() .withRng(newRng()) .withAddresses(@[ MultiAddress.init("/ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/0").tryGet() ]) .withTcpTransport() .withMplex() .withNoise() .withCircuitRelay(r) .build() proc main() {.async.} = # Create a custom protocol let customProtoCodec = "/test" var proto = new LPProtocol proto.codec = customProtoCodec proto.handler = proc(conn: Connection, proto: string) {.async.} = var msg = string.fromBytes(await conn.readLp(1024)) echo "1 - Dst Received: ", msg assert "test1" == msg await conn.writeLp("test2") msg = string.fromBytes(await conn.readLp(1024)) echo "2 - Dst Received: ", msg assert "test3" == msg await conn.writeLp("test4") let relay = Relay.new() clSrc = RelayClient.new() clDst = RelayClient.new() # Create three hosts, enable relay client on two of them. # The third one can relay connections for other peers. # RelayClient can use a relay, Relay is a relay. swRel = createCircuitRelaySwitch(relay) swSrc = createCircuitRelaySwitch(clSrc) swDst = createCircuitRelaySwitch(clDst) swDst.mount(proto) await swRel.start() await swSrc.start() await swDst.start() let # Create a relay address to swDst using swRel as the relay addrs = MultiAddress.init($swRel.peerInfo.addrs[0] & "/p2p/" & $swRel.peerInfo.peerId & "/p2p-circuit").get() # Connect Dst to the relay await swDst.connect(swRel.peerInfo.peerId, swRel.peerInfo.addrs) # Dst reserve a slot on the relay. let rsvp = await clDst.reserve(swRel.peerInfo.peerId, swRel.peerInfo.addrs) # Src dial Dst using the relay let conn = await swSrc.dial(swDst.peerInfo.peerId, @[ addrs ], customProtoCodec) await conn.writeLp("test1") var msg = string.fromBytes(await conn.readLp(1024)) echo "1 - Src Received: ", msg assert "test2" == msg await conn.writeLp("test3") msg = string.fromBytes(await conn.readLp(1024)) echo "2 - Src Received: ", msg assert "test4" == msg await relay.stop() await allFutures(swSrc.stop(), swDst.stop(), swRel.stop()) waitFor(main())
