> Node.js implementation of libp2p

## Interface

> **This is a work in progress, interface might change at anytime**

libp2p expects a [Record Store interface](https://github.com/diasdavid/abstract-record-store), a swarm and one or more Peer Routers that implement the [Peer Routing](https://github.com/diasdavid/abstract-peer-routing), the goal is to keep simplicity and plugability while the remaining modules execute the heavy lifting.

### Setting everything up

```
var libp2p = require('libp2p')
```

### Dialing and listening

libp2p.swarm.dialStream(peerInfo, protocol, options, function (err, stream) {})
libp2p.swarm.handleProtocol(protocol, options, handlerFunction)

### Using Peer Routing

libp2p.routing.findPeers(key, function (err, peerInfos) {})

### Using Records

libp2p.record.get(key, function (err, records) {})
libp2p.record.store(key, record)

### Stats
