Module gossip

The NetworkGraph stores the network gossip and P2PGossipSync fetches it from peers

Structs

• ChannelInfo
  Details about a channel (both directions). Received within a channel announcement.
• ChannelUpdateInfo
  Details about one direction of a channel as received within a ChannelUpdate.
• DirectedChannelInfo
  A wrapper around ChannelInfo representing information about the channel as directed from a source node to a target node.
• NetworkGraph
  Represents the network as nodes and channels between them
• NodeAlias
  A user-defined name for a node, which may be used when displaying the node in a graph.
• NodeAnnouncementDetails
  Non-relayable information received in the latest node_announcement from this node.
• NodeId
  Represents the compressed public key of a node
• NodeInfo
  Details about a node in the network, known from the network announcement.
• P2PGossipSync
  Receives and validates network updates from peers, stores authentic and relevant data as a network graph. This network graph is then used for routing payments. Provides interface to help with initial routing sync by serving historical announcements.
• ReadOnlyNetworkGraph
  A read-only view of NetworkGraph.
• RoutingFees
  Fees for routing via a given channel or a node

Enums

• EffectiveCapacity
  The effective capacity of a channel for routing purposes.
• NetworkUpdate
  Update to the NetworkGraph based on payment failure information conveyed via the Onion return packet by a node along the route. See BOLT #4 for details.
• NodeAnnouncementInfo
  Information received in the latest node_announcement from this node.

Constants

• UNKNOWN_CHANNEL_CAPACITY_MSAT
  The presumed channel capacity denominated in millisatoshi for EffectiveCapacity::Unknown to use when making routing decisions.

Functions

• verify_channel_announcement
  Verifies all signatures included in a ChannelAnnouncement.
• verify_node_announcement
  Verifies the signature of a NodeAnnouncement.
