refactor(cbindings): Thread-safe communication between the main thread and the Waku Thread (#1978)
* Thread-safe comms between main thread & Waku Thread - ChannelSPSCSingle.
* Renaming procs from 'new' to 'createShared'. They use the shared allocator.
* peer_manager_request: no need to use ptr WakuNode.
* waku_thread: moving the 'waitFor' to upper layer.
* waku_thread: `poll()` -> `waitFor sleepAsync(1)` to avoid risk of blocking.
* libwaku: thread-safe "sub-objects" in an inter-thread requests.
  When two threads send data each other, that data cannot contain any
  GC'ed type (string, seq, ref, closures) at any level.
* Allocating the 'configJson' in main thread and deallocating in Waku Thread.

Nwaku

Introduction

The nwaku repository implements Waku, and provides tools related to it.

  • A Nim implementation of the Waku (v2) protocol.
  • CLI application wakunode2 that allows you to run a Waku node.
  • Examples of Waku usage.
  • Various tests of above.

For more details see the source code

How to Build & Run

These instructions are generic. For more detailed instructions, see the Waku source code above.

Prerequisites

The standard developer tools, including a C compiler, GNU Make, Bash, and Git. More information on these installations can be found here.

Wakunode

# The first `make` invocation will update all Git submodules.
# You'll run `make update` after each `git pull` in the future to keep those submodules updated.
make wakunode2

# See available command line options
./build/wakunode2 --help

For more on how to run wakunode2, refer to:

Issues

WSL

If you encounter difficulties building the project on WSL, consider placing the project within WSL's filesystem, avoiding the /mnt/ directory.

Developing

Nim Runtime

This repository is bundled with a Nim runtime that includes the necessary dependencies for the project.

Before you can utilise the runtime you'll need to build the project, as detailed in a previous section. This will generate a vendor directory containing various dependencies, including the nimbus-build-system which has the bundled nim runtime.

After successfully building the project, you may bring the bundled runtime into scope by running:

source env.sh

If everything went well, your should see your prompt suffixed with [Nimbus env]$. Now you can run nim commands as usual.

Waku Protocol Test Suite

# Run all the Waku tests
make test

Examples

Examples can be found in the examples folder. This includes a fully featured chat example.

Tools

Different tools and their corresponding how-to guides can be found in the tools folder.
