ranger

Ranger is a set of utilities for listening to the peer to peer network without a node, serving mempool transactions and other data from the eth p2p protocol.

⚠️🚧 WIP 🚧⚠️

Ranger is separated into two parts currently:

  • sauron provides a command line program which will print out
    incoming transactions and transaction hashes as it receives them from the
    network. This needs a lot of work before it can remain connected to other
    nodes! This is a work in progress!
  • relay includes utility code for interacting with the p2p
    network, and traits for exposing mempool transactions as a Stream.

  • ethp2p, a library built for ranger, which is used for encoding and decoding eth messages.
  • Sentry, which provides much of the code that we use to interact with eth p2p networking protocols.
