README

go-enet

Enet bindings for Go using cgo.

Installation

First, you might need to install enet as a dependency:

  • Windows: Nothing to do - should work out of the box with the supplied headers and library.
  • Linux: Install the enet development package with your package manager.
    • On Debian-based systems: apt install libenet-dev
  • MacOS: Install the enet package with brew: brew install enet

Since this module uses cgo, you must also make sure you have a C compiler in your PATH. For Linux and Mac, this is usually pretty straight forward. On Windows, you may have to use something like MSYS2.

When ready, get the module like this:

$ go get github.com/codecat/go-enet

Usage

import "github.com/codecat/go-enet"

The API is mostly the same as the C API, except it's more object-oriented.

Server example

This is a basic server example that responds to packets "ping" and "bye".

package main

import (
	"github.com/codecat/go-enet"
	"github.com/codecat/go-libs/log"
)

func main() {
	// Initialize enet
	enet.Initialize()

	// Create a host listening on 0.0.0.0:8095
	host, err := enet.NewHost(enet.NewListenAddress(8095), 32, 1, 0, 0)
	if err != nil {
		log.Error("Couldn't create host: %s", err.Error())
		return
	}

	// The event loop
	for true {
		// Wait until the next event
		ev := host.Service(1000)

		// Do nothing if we didn't get any event
		if ev.GetType() == enet.EventNone {
			continue
		}

		switch ev.GetType() {
		case enet.EventConnect: // A new peer has connected
			log.Info("New peer connected: %s", ev.GetPeer().GetAddress())

		case enet.EventDisconnect: // A connected peer has disconnected
			log.Info("Peer disconnected: %s", ev.GetPeer().GetAddress())

		case enet.EventReceive: // A peer sent us some data
			// Get the packet
			packet := ev.GetPacket()

			// We must destroy the packet when we're done with it
			defer packet.Destroy()

			// Get the bytes in the packet
			packetBytes := packet.GetData()

			// Respond "pong" to "ping"
			if string(packetBytes) == "ping" {
				ev.GetPeer().SendString("pong", ev.GetChannelID(), enet.PacketFlagReliable)
				continue
			}

			// Disconnect the peer if they say "bye"
			if string(packetBytes) == "bye" {
				log.Info("Bye!")
				ev.GetPeer().Disconnect(0)
				continue
			}
		}
	}

	// Destroy the host when we're done with it
	host.Destroy()

	// Uninitialize enet
	enet.Deinitialize()
}

Client example

This is a basic client example that sends a ping to the server every second that there is no event.

package main

import (
	"github.com/codecat/go-enet"
	"github.com/codecat/go-libs/log"
)

func main() {
	// Initialize enet
	enet.Initialize()

	// Create a client host
	client, err := enet.NewHost(nil, 1, 1, 0, 0)
	if err != nil {
		log.Error("Couldn't create host: %s", err.Error())
		return
	}

	// Connect the client host to the server
	peer, err := client.Connect(enet.NewAddress("127.0.0.1", 8095), 1, 0)
	if err != nil {
		log.Error("Couldn't connect: %s", err.Error())
		return
	}

	// The event loop
	for true {
		// Wait until the next event
		ev := client.Service(1000)

		// Send a ping if we didn't get any event
		if ev.GetType() == enet.EventNone {
			peer.SendString("ping", 0, enet.PacketFlagReliable)
			continue
		}

		switch ev.GetType() {
		case enet.EventConnect: // We connected to the server
			log.Info("Connected to the server!")

		case enet.EventDisconnect: // We disconnected from the server
			log.Info("Lost connection to the server!")

		case enet.EventReceive: // The server sent us data
			packet := ev.GetPacket()
			log.Info("Received %d bytes from server", len(packet.GetData()))
			packet.Destroy()
		}
	}

	// Destroy the host when we're done with it
	client.Destroy()

	// Uninitialize enet
	enet.Deinitialize()
}

Initialize enet

func LinkedVersion 

func LinkedVersion() string

LinkedVersion returns the linked version of enet currently being used. Returns MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH as a string.

Types

type Address 

type Address interface {
	SetHostAny()
	SetHost(ip string)
	SetPort(port uint16)

	String() string
	GetPort() uint16
}

Address specifies a portable internet address structure.

func NewAddress 

func NewAddress(ip string, port uint16) Address

NewAddress creates a new address

func NewListenAddress 

func NewListenAddress(port uint16) Address

NewListenAddress makes a new address ready for listening on ENET_HOST_ANY

type Event 

type Event interface {
	GetType() EventType
	GetPeer() Peer
	GetChannelID() uint8
	GetData() uint32
	GetPacket() Packet
}

Event as returned by Host.Service()

type EventType 

type EventType int

EventType is a type of event 

const (
	// EventNone means that no event occurred within the specified time limit
	EventNone EventType = iota

	// EventConnect means that a connection request initiated by Host.Connect has completed
	// The peer field contains the peer which successfully connected
	EventConnect

	// EventDisconnect means that a peer has disconnected. This event is generated on a
	// successful completion of a disconnect initiated by Peer.Disconnect, if a peer has
	// timed out, or if a connection request intialized by Host.Connect has timed out. The
	// peer field contains the peer which disconnected. The data field contains user supplied
	// data describing the disconnection, or 0, if none is available.
	EventDisconnect

	// EventReceive means that a packet has been received from a peer. The peer field
	// specifies the peer which sent the packet. The channelID field specifies the channel
	// number upon which the packet was received. The packet field contains the packet that
	// was received; this packet must be destroyed with Packet.Destroy after use.
	EventReceive
)

type Host

type PacketFlags 

type PacketFlags uint32

PacketFlags are bit constants 

const (

	// should be made until the packet is delivered
	PacketFlagReliable PacketFlags = C.ENET_PACKET_FLAG_RELIABLE

	// PacketFlagUnsequenced packets will not be sequenced with other packets not supported
	// for reliable packets
	PacketFlagUnsequenced PacketFlags = C.ENET_PACKET_FLAG_UNSEQUENCED

	// PacketFlagNoAllocate packets will not allocate data, and user must supply it instead
	PacketFlagNoAllocate PacketFlags = C.ENET_PACKET_FLAG_NO_ALLOCATE

	// PacketFlagUnreliableFragment packets will be fragmented using unreliable (instead of
	// reliable) sends if it exceeds the MTU
	PacketFlagUnreliableFragment PacketFlags = C.ENET_PACKET_FLAG_UNRELIABLE_FRAGMENT

	// PacketFlagSent specifies whether the packet has been sent from all queues it has been
	// entered into
	PacketFlagSent PacketFlags = C.ENET_PACKET_FLAG_SENT
)

	// SetData sets an arbitrary value against a peer. This is useful to attach some
	// application-specific data for future use, such as an identifier.
	//
	// http://enet.bespin.org/structENetPeer.html#a1873959810db7ac7a02da90469ee384e
	//
	// Note that due to the way the enet library works, if using this you are
	// responsible for clearing this data when the peer is finished with.
	// SetData(nil) will free underlying memory and avoid any leaks.
	//
	// See http://enet.bespin.org/Tutorial.html#ManageHost for an example of this
	// in the underlying library.
	SetData(data []byte)

	// GetData returns an application-specific value that's been set
	// against this peer. This returns nil if no data has been set.
	//
	// http://enet.bespin.org/structENetPeer.html#a1873959810db7ac7a02da90469ee384e
