A command issued from a NetworkBehaviour for the Swarm.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

GenerateEvent(TOutEvent)

Instructs the Swarm to return an event when it is being polled.

Dial

Instructs the swarm to start a dial.

On success, NetworkBehaviour::on_swarm_event with ConnectionEstablished is invoked. On failure, NetworkBehaviour::on_swarm_event with DialFailure is invoked.

DialOpts provides access to the ConnectionId via DialOpts::connection_id. This ConnectionId will be used throughout the connection’s lifecycle to associate events with it. This allows a NetworkBehaviour to identify a connection that resulted out of its own dial request.

Fields

opts: DialOpts

ListenOn

Instructs the Swarm to listen on the provided address.

Fields

opts: ListenOpts

RemoveListener

Instructs the Swarm to remove the listener.

Fields

id: ListenerId

NotifyHandler

Instructs the Swarm to send an event to the handler dedicated to a connection with a peer.

If the Swarm is connected to the peer, the message is delivered to the ConnectionHandler instance identified by the peer ID and connection ID.

If the specified connection no longer exists, the event is silently dropped.

Typically the connection ID given is the same as the one passed to NetworkBehaviour::on_connection_handler_event, i.e. whenever the behaviour wishes to respond to a request on the same connection (and possibly the same substream, as per the implementation of ConnectionHandler).

Note that even if the peer is currently connected, connections can get closed at any time and thus the event may not reach a handler.

Fields

peer_id: PeerId

The peer for whom a ConnectionHandler should be notified.

handler: NotifyHandler

The options w.r.t. which connection handler to notify of the event.

event: TInEvent

The event to send.

NewExternalAddrCandidate(Multiaddr)

Reports a new candidate for an external address to the Swarm.

The emphasis on a new candidate is important. Protocols MUST take care to only emit a candidate once per “source”. For example, the observed address of a TCP connection does not change throughout its lifetime. Thus, only one candidate should be emitted per connection.

This makes the report frequency of an address a meaningful data-point for consumers of this event. This address will be shared with all NetworkBehaviours via FromSwarm::NewExternalAddrCandidate.

This address could come from a variety of sources:

• A protocol such as identify obtained it from a remote.
• The user provided it based on configuration.
• We made an educated guess based on one of our listen addresses.

ExternalAddrConfirmed(Multiaddr)

Indicates to the Swarm that the provided address is confirmed to be externally reachable.

This is intended to be issued in response to a FromSwarm::NewExternalAddrCandidate if we are indeed externally reachable on this address. This address will be shared with all NetworkBehaviours via FromSwarm::ExternalAddrConfirmed.

ExternalAddrExpired(Multiaddr)

Indicates to the Swarm that we are no longer externally reachable under the provided address.

This expires an address that was earlier confirmed via ToSwarm::ExternalAddrConfirmed. This address will be shared with all NetworkBehaviours via FromSwarm::ExternalAddrExpired.

CloseConnection

Instructs the Swarm to initiate a graceful close of one or all connections with the given peer.

Closing a connection via ToSwarm::CloseConnection will poll ConnectionHandler::poll_close to completion. In most cases, stopping to “use” a connection is enough to have it closed. The keep-alive algorithm will close a connection automatically once all ConnectionHandlers are idle.

Use this command if you want to close a connection despite it still being in use by one or more handlers.

Fields

peer_id: PeerId

The peer to disconnect.

connection: CloseConnection

Whether to close a specific or all connections to the given peer.

NewExternalAddrOfPeer

Reports external address of a remote peer to the Swarm and through that to other NetworkBehaviours.

Fields

peer_id: PeerId

address: Multiaddr
