cometbft-p2p
Pure Rust implementation of the Secret Connection transport encryption protocol used by CometBFT for peer-to-peer (P2P) connections.
Features
- Synchronous
SecretConnectionimplementation forstd::io(e.g.TcpStream) AsyncSecretConnectionimplementation based ontokio- Protobuf
Message-oriented interface which abstracts away low-level buffering/framing - Support for splitting connections into separate readers/writers that can be used concurrently
- Self-contained with no dependencies on legacy
tendermint-rs
Compatibility
Tested in production with CometBFT v0.37, v0.38, and v1.0.
Should also be compatible with legacy Tendermint versions v0.34+, as well as earlier versions of CometBFT.
Cryptographic algorithms
The Secret Connection protocol uses the following cryptographic algorithms:
- Identity: Ed25519
- Key exchange: X25519
- Packet encryption: ChaCha20Poly1305
