Interface ConnectionEncrypter<Extension>

A libp2p connection encrypter module must be compliant to this interface to ensure all exchanged data between two peers is encrypted.

interface ConnectionEncrypter<Extension> {
    protocol: string;
    secureInbound<Stream>(localPeer, connection, remotePeer?): Promise<SecuredConnection<Stream, Extension>>;
    secureOutbound<Stream>(localPeer, connection, remotePeer?): Promise<SecuredConnection<Stream, Extension>>;
}

Methods

secureInbound

secureInbound<Stream>(localPeer, connection, remotePeer?): Promise<SecuredConnection<Stream, Extension>>
Decrypt incoming data. If the remote PeerId is known, pass it for extra verification, otherwise it will be determined during the handshake
Type Parameters
- Stream extends Duplex<AsyncGenerator<Uint8Array | Uint8ArrayList, any, unknown>, AsyncGenerator<Uint8Array | Uint8ArrayList, any, unknown>, unknown> = MultiaddrConnection
Parameters
- localPeer: PeerId
- connection: Stream
- Optional remotePeer: PeerId
Returns Promise<SecuredConnection<Stream, Extension>>
- Defined in packages/interface/src/connection-encrypter/index.ts:25

secureOutbound

secureOutbound<Stream>(localPeer, connection, remotePeer?): Promise<SecuredConnection<Stream, Extension>>
Encrypt outgoing data to the remote party. If the remote PeerId is known, pass it for extra verification, otherwise it will be determined during the handshake.
Type Parameters
- Stream extends Duplex<AsyncGenerator<Uint8Array | Uint8ArrayList, any, unknown>, AsyncGenerator<Uint8Array | Uint8ArrayList, any, unknown>, unknown> = MultiaddrConnection
Parameters
- localPeer: PeerId
- connection: Stream
- Optional remotePeer: PeerId
Returns Promise<SecuredConnection<Stream, Extension>>
- Defined in packages/interface/src/connection-encrypter/index.ts:18
