A Micro Transport Protocol library implemented in Rust.
The Micro Transport Protocol is a reliable transport protocol built over UDP. Its congestion control algorithm is LEDBAT, which tries to use as much unused bandwidth as it can but readily yields to competing flows, making it useful for bulk transfers without introducing congestion in the network.
The current implementation is somewhat incomplete, lacking a complete implementation of congestion
control. However, it does support packet loss detection (except by timeout) the
Selective Acknowledgment extension, handles unordered and duplicate packets and
presents a stream interface (UtpStream
).
To use utp
, add this to your Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
utp = "*"
Then, import it in your crate root or wherever you need it:
extern crate utp;
The simplest example program would be:
extern crate utp;
use utp::UtpStream;
use std::io::Write;
fn main() {
// Connect to an hypothetical local server running on port 8080
let addr = "127.0.0.1:8080";
let mut stream = UtpStream::connect(addr).expect("Error connecting to remote peer");
// Send a string
stream.write("Hi there!".as_bytes()).expect("Write failed");
// Close the stream
stream.close().expect("Error closing connection");
}
