README.md

Examples

A set of examples showcasing how to use rust-libp2p.

Ping

Small ping clone, sending a ping to a peer, expecting a pong as a response. See tutorial for a step-by-step guide building the example.

Chat

A basic chat application demonstrating libp2p and the mDNS and floodsub protocols.
- Gossipsub chat
  
  Same as the chat example but using mDNS and the Gossipsub protocol.
- Tokio based chat
  
  Same as the chat example but using tokio for all asynchronous tasks and I/O.
Distributed key-value store

A basic key value store demonstrating libp2p and the mDNS and Kademlia protocol.
Identify

Demonstrates how to use identify protocol to query peer information.
IPFS Kademlia

Demonstrates how to perform Kademlia queries on the IPFS network.
IPFS Private

Implementation using the gossipsub, ping and identify protocols to implement the ipfs private swarms feature.
Passive Discovery via MDNS

Discover peers on the same network via the MDNS protocol.
Hole punching tutorial

Tutorial on how to overcome firewalls and NATs with libp2p’s hole punching mechanism.

File sharing application

Basic file sharing application with peers either providing or locating and getting files by name.

While obviously showcasing how to build a basic file sharing application with the Kademlia and Request-Response protocol, the actual goal of this example is to show how to integrate rust-libp2p into a larger application.
