ibc-types
This crate defines common data structures for Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) messages that can be reused by different IBC implementations or IBC ecosystem tooling.
Unlike ibc-rs, which provides a specific and opinionated implementation of
IBC, ibc-types just defines Rust types that allow working with IBC messages,
allowing an IBC implementation or IBC ecosystem tooling to be built on top using
a common language.
In addition to defining Rust types for IBC messages, ibc-types also defines
Rust types for IBC events, and provides code for parsing IBC events to and from
ABCI messages. IBC events are de facto a critical part of IBC, in that they're
needed to interoperate with relayers, but are not really specified anywhere.
Providing event parsing code in ibc-types allows IBC implementations and
relayer implementations to share common code for producing and consuming events.
The ibc-types crate is a top-level wrapper crate re-exporting the contents of
subcrates scoped by IBC module. This structure means that external users of the
library can use one catch-all crate, but allows dependency relationships between
different IBC modules. For example, the ibc-types crate re-exports the client
types defined in the ibc-types-core-client crate, as well as the types for the
Tendermint light client defined in the ibc-types-lightclients-tendermint
crate. But because these are separate crates, the Tendermint light client
types can depend on the core IBC client types, preventing cyclic dependency
issues.
Contributing
IBC is specified in English in the cosmos/ibc repo. Any protocol changes or clarifications should be contributed there.
This repo contains Rust datatypes modeling IBC messages.
Versioning
We follow Semantic Versioning, though APIs are still under active development.
