Content Topic: /waku/2/huilong/proto
.
This specification explains a toy chat example using Waku v2. This protocol is mainly used to:
- Dogfood Waku v2,
- Show an example of how to use Waku v2.
Currently, all main Waku v2 implementations support the toy chat protocol: nim-waku, js-waku (NodeJS and web) and go-waku.
Note that this is completely separate from the protocol the Status app is using for its chat functionality.
Design
The chat protocol enables sending and receiving messages in a chat room. There is currently only one chat room, which is tied to the content topic. The messages SHOULD NOT be encrypted.
The contentTopic
MUST be set to /waku/2/huilong/proto
.
