* [libp2p-dns] Use trust-dns-resolver. Use the `trust-dns-resolver` library for DNS resolution, thereby removing current use of the thread pool. Since `trust-dns-resolver` and related crates already provide support for both `async-std` and `tokio`, we make use of that here in our own feature flags. Since `trust-dns-resolver` provides many useful configuration options and error detail, central types of `trust-dns-resolver` like `ResolverConfig`, `ResolverOpts` and `ResolveError` are re-exposed in the API of `libp2p-dns`. Full encapsulation does not seem preferable in this case. * Cleanup * Fix two intra-doc links. * Simplify slightly. * Incorporate review feedback. * Remove git dependency and fix example. * Update version and changelogs.
Central repository for work on libp2p
This repository is the central place for Rust development of the libp2p spec.
Warning: While we are trying our best to be compatible with other libp2p implementations, we cannot guarantee that this is the case considering the lack of a precise libp2p specifications.

Repository Structure
The main components of this repository are structured as follows:
-
core/
: The implementation oflibp2p-core
with itsNetwork
,Transport
andStreamMuxer
API on which almost all other crates depend. -
transports/
: Implementations of transport protocols (e.g. TCP) and protocol upgrades (e.g. for authenticated encryption, compression, ...) based on thelibp2p-core
Transport
API . -
muxers/
: Implementations of theStreamMuxer
interface oflibp2p-core
, e.g. (sub)stream multiplexing protocols on top of (typically TCP) connections. Multiplexing protocols are (mandatory)Transport
upgrades. -
swarm/
: The implementation oflibp2p-swarm
building onlibp2p-core
with the central interfacesNetworkBehaviour
andProtocolsHandler
used to implement application protocols (seeprotocols/
). -
protocols/
: Implementations of application protocols based on thelibp2p-swarm
APIs. -
misc/
: Utility libraries. -
examples/
: Worked examples of built-in application protocols (seeprotocols/
) with commonTransport
configurations.
