Expand description

Noise protocol framework support for libp2p.

Note: This crate is still experimental and subject to major breaking changes both on the API and the wire protocol.

This crate provides libp2p_core::InboundUpgrade and libp2p_core::OutboundUpgrade implementations for various noise handshake patterns (currently IK, IX, and XX) over a particular choice of Diffie–Hellman key agreement (currently only X25519).

Note: Only the XX handshake pattern is currently guaranteed to provide interoperability with other libp2p implementations.

All upgrades produce as output a pair, consisting of the remote’s static public key and a NoiseOutput which represents the established cryptographic session with the remote, implementing futures::io::AsyncRead and futures::io::AsyncWrite.

Usage

Example:

use libp2p_core::{identity, Transport, upgrade};
use libp2p_tcp::TcpConfig;
use libp2p_noise::{Keypair, X25519Spec, NoiseConfig};

let id_keys = identity::Keypair::generate_ed25519();
let dh_keys = Keypair::<X25519Spec>::new().into_authentic(&id_keys).unwrap();
let noise = NoiseConfig::xx(dh_keys).into_authenticated();
let builder = TcpConfig::new().upgrade(upgrade::Version::V1).authenticate(noise);
// let transport = builder.multiplex(...);

Modules

Noise protocol handshake I/O.

Structs

A DH keypair that is authentic w.r.t. a identity::PublicKey.

A future performing a Noise handshake pattern.

DH keypair.

The associated public identity of a DH keypair.

Legacy configuration options.

A NoiseAuthenticated transport upgrade that wraps around any NoiseConfig handshake and verifies that the remote identified with a RemoteIdentity::IdentityKey, aborting otherwise.

The protocol upgrade configuration.

A noise session to a remote.

The parameters of a Noise protocol, consisting of a choice for a handshake pattern as well as DH, cipher and hash functions.

DH public key.

DH secret key.

A X25519 key.

A X25519 key.

Enums

Type tag for the IK handshake pattern.

Type tag for the IX handshake pattern.

The options for identity exchange in an authenticated handshake.

libp2p_noise error type.

The identity of the remote established during a handshake.

Type tag for the XX handshake pattern.

Traits

A Noise protocol over DH keys of type C. The choice of C determines the protocol parameters for each handshake pattern.
