* P2P Module Implementation
|
||||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||||
:CUSTOM_ID: p2p-module-implementation
|
||||
:END:
|
||||
The P2P module (i.e Peer to Peer Module) is responsible for storing the
|
||||
IP table and interacting with the IP table. In the following
|
||||
implementation of the P2P module ,the IP table stores information about
|
||||
servers available in the network. The other functionality the P2P module
|
||||
takes care of is doing the appropriate speed tests to the servers in the
|
||||
IP table. This is for informing the users about nodes which are close by
|
||||
and nodes which have quicker uploads and downloads speeds. The module is
|
||||
responsible to ensure that there are no duplicate server IPs in the IP
|
||||
table and to remove all server IPs which are not pingable.
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
The peer to peer implementation was built from scratch. This is because
|
||||
other peer to peer libraries were on the implementation of the
|
||||
Distributed hash table. At the current moment all those heavy features
|
||||
are not needed because the objective is to search and list all possible
|
||||
servers available. The limitation being that to be a part of the network
|
||||
the user has to know at least 1 server. The advantage of building from
|
||||
scratch makes the module super light and possibility for custom
|
||||
functions and structs. The sub topics below will mention the
|
||||
implementations of each functionality in depth.
|
||||
|
||||
** IP Table
|
||||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||||
:CUSTOM_ID: ip-table
|
||||
:END:
|
||||
The ip table file is a json as the format with a list of servers ip
|
||||
addresses, latencies, downloads and uploads speeds. The functions
|
||||
implemented include read file, write file and remove duplicate IP
|
||||
addresses. The remove duplicate IP address function exists because
|
||||
sometimes servers IP tables can have the same ip addresses as what the
|
||||
client has. The path of the IP table json file is received from the
|
||||
configuration module.
|
||||
|
||||
#+begin_src json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"ip_address": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"ipv4": "<ipv4 address>",
|
||||
"latency": "<latency>",
|
||||
"download": "<download>",
|
||||
"upload": "<upload>"
|
||||
"port no": "<server port no>",
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
#+end_src
|
||||
|
||||
*** Latency
|
||||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||||
:CUSTOM_ID: latency
|
||||
:END:
|
||||
The latency is measured in milliseconds. The route /server_info is
|
||||
called from the server and time it takes to provide a json response is
|
||||
recorded.
|
||||
|
||||
** NAT Traversal
|
||||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||||
:CUSTOM_ID: nat-traversal
|
||||
:END:
|
||||
P2PRC currently supports TURN for NAT traversal.
|
||||
|
||||
** TURN
|
||||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||||
:CUSTOM_ID: turn
|
||||
:END:
|
||||
The current TURN implementation used is FRP. The TURN server is also
|
||||
required when a P2PRC node is acting as a Server. The TURN server is
|
||||
determined based on the Node with the least amount of latency based on
|
||||
the Nodes available on the IPTable. Once a TURN server is determined
|
||||
there are 2 actions performed. The first one is =/FRPPort= to the TURN
|
||||
server to receive a port which is used to generate the external port
|
||||
from the TURN server. The flow below describes the workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
*** Client mode
|
||||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||||
:CUSTOM_ID: client-mode
|
||||
:END:
|
||||
- Call =/FRPPort=
|
||||
|
||||
#+begin_example
|
||||
http://<turn server ip>:<server port no>/FRPport
|
||||
#+end_example
|
||||
|
||||
- Call the TURN server in the following manner. The following is a
|
||||
sample code snippet below.
|
||||
|
||||
#+begin_src go
|
||||
import (
|
||||
"github.com/Akilan1999/p2p-rendering-computation/p2p/frp"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
func main() {
|
||||
serverPort, err := frp.GetFRPServerPort("http://" + <lowestLatencyIpAddress.Ipv4> + ":" + lowestLatencyIpAddress.ServerPort)
|
||||
if err != nil {
|
||||
return nil, err
|
||||
}
|
||||
// Create 1 second delay to allow FRP server to start
|
||||
time.Sleep(1 * time.Second)
|
||||
// Starts FRP as a client with
|
||||
proxyPort, err := frp.StartFRPClientForServer(<lowestLatencyIpAddress.Ipv4>, serverPort, <the port you want to expose externally>)
|
||||
if err != nil {
|
||||
return nil, err
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
#+end_src
