Weicore P2P
weicore-p2p
adds Wei protocol support for Weicore.
See the main weicore-lib repo for more information.
Getting Started
npm install @weicrypto/weicore-p2p
In order to connect to the Wei network, you'll need to know the IP address of at least one node of the network, or use Pool to discover peers using a DNS seed.
var Peer = require('@weicrypto/weicore-p2p').Peer;
var peer = new Peer({host: '127.0.0.1'});
peer.on('ready', function() {
// peer info
console.log(peer.version, peer.subversion, peer.bestHeight);
});
peer.on('disconnect', function() {
console.log('connection closed');
});
peer.connect();
Then, you can get information from other peers by using:
// handle events
peer.on('inv', function(message) {
// message.inventory[]
});
peer.on('tx', function(message) {
// message.transaction
});
Take a look at the bitcore guide on the usage of the Peer
class.
