Crate no_std_net

Networking primitives for TCP/UDP communication.

This module provides networking functionality for the Transmission Control and User Datagram Protocols, as well as types for IP and socket addresses. It has been ported from std::net to remove the dependency on std.

This crate is a WIP, issues, feedback and PRs are welcome as long as they follow the theme of “std::net” clone.

Organization

• IpAddr represents IP addresses of either IPv4 or IPv6; Ipv4Addr and Ipv6Addr are respectively IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
• TcpListener and TcpStream provide functionality for communication over TCP
• UdpSocket provides functionality for communication over UDP
• SocketAddr represents socket addresses of either IPv4 or IPv6; SocketAddrV4 and SocketAddrV6 are respectively IPv4 and IPv6 socket addresses
• ToSocketAddrs is a trait that used for generic address resolution when interacting with networking objects like TcpListener, TcpStream or UdpSocket
• Other types are return or parameter types for various methods in this module

Structs

• Ipv4Addr
  An IPv4 address.
• Ipv6Addr
  An IPv6 address.
• SocketAddrV4
  An IPv4 socket address.
• SocketAddrV6
  An IPv6 socket address.

Enums

• IpAddr
  An IP address, either IPv4 or IPv6.
• SocketAddr
  An internet socket address, either IPv4 or IPv6.

Traits

• ToSocketAddrs
  A trait for objects which can be converted or resolved to one or more SocketAddr values.
