Types

type Config 

type Config struct {
	// DataDir is the file system folder the node should use for any data storage
	// requirements. The configured data directory will not be directly shared with
	// registered services, instead those can use utility methods to create/access
	// databases or flat files. This enables ephemeral nodes which can fully reside
	// in memory.
	DataDir string

	// IPCPath is the requested location to place the IPC endpoint. If the path is
	// a simple file name, it is placed inside the data directory (or on the root
	// pipe path on Windows), whereas if it's a resolvable path name (absolute or
	// relative), then that specific path is enforced. An empty path disables IPC.
	IPCPath string

	// This field should be a valid secp256k1 private key that will be used for both
	// remote peer identification as well as network traffic encryption. If no key
	// is configured, the preset one is loaded from the data dir, generating it if
	// needed.
	PrivateKey *ecdsa.PrivateKey

	// Name sets the node name of this server. Use common.MakeName to create a name
	// that follows existing conventions.
	Name string

	// NoDiscovery specifies whether the peer discovery mechanism should be started
	// or not. Disabling is usually useful for protocol debugging (manual topology).
	NoDiscovery bool

	// Bootstrap nodes used to establish connectivity with the rest of the network.
	BootstrapNodes []*discover.Node

	// Network interface address on which the node should listen for inbound peers.
	ListenAddr string

	// If set to a non-nil value, the given NAT port mapper is used to make the
	// listening port available to the Internet.
	NAT nat.Interface

	// If Dialer is set to a non-nil value, the given Dialer is used to dial outbound
	// peer connections.
	Dialer *net.Dialer

	// If NoDial is true, the node will not dial any peers.
	NoDial bool

	// MaxPeers is the maximum number of peers that can be connected. If this is
	// set to zero, then only the configured static and trusted peers can connect.
	MaxPeers int

	// MaxPendingPeers is the maximum number of peers that can be pending in the
	// handshake phase, counted separately for inbound and outbound connections.
	// Zero defaults to preset values.
	MaxPendingPeers int

	// HTTPHost is the host interface on which to start the HTTP RPC server. If this
	// field is empty, no HTTP API endpoint will be started.
	HTTPHost string

	// HTTPPort is the TCP port number on which to start the HTTP RPC server. The
	// default zero value is/ valid and will pick a port number randomly (useful
	// for ephemeral nodes).
	HTTPPort int

	// HTTPCors is the Cross-Origin Resource Sharing header to send to requesting
	// clients. Please be aware that CORS is a browser enforced security, it's fully
	// useless for custom HTTP clients.
	HTTPCors string

	// HTTPModules is a list of API modules to expose via the HTTP RPC interface.
	// If the module list is empty, all RPC API endpoints designated public will be
	// exposed.
	HTTPModules []string

	// WSHost is the host interface on which to start the websocket RPC server. If
	// this field is empty, no websocket API endpoint will be started.
	WSHost string

	// WSPort is the TCP port number on which to start the websocket RPC server. The
	// default zero value is/ valid and will pick a port number randomly (useful for
	// ephemeral nodes).
	WSPort int

	// WSOrigins is the list of domain to accept websocket requests from. Please be
	// aware that the server can only act upon the HTTP request the client sends and
	// cannot verify the validity of the request header.
	WSOrigins string

	// WSModules is a list of API modules to expose via the websocket RPC interface.
	// If the module list is empty, all RPC API endpoints designated public will be
	// exposed.
	WSModules []string

Notes:

  • Service life-cycle management is delegated to the node. The service is allowed to initialize itself upon creation, but no goroutines should be spun up outside of the Start method.
  • Restart logic is not required as the node will create a fresh instance every time a service is started.
