Gravitation Protocol

Gravitation Protocol provides a way to find peers with simlar properties, functions, and goals.

How it works:

• Local peers send a "gravitation" request which includes a Metadata ID (list of properties that describe the peer) and their "orbit" (a collection of peers they've collected and their properties).
• Remote peers respond with the same information
• Upon recieving a gravitation request or response, both peers determine whether to accept a peer into their orbit based on their Metadata ID, and their orbits, as well as performing this process on the remote peers' orbit as well.

How to use:

Clone the project make deps go build

./GravitationProtocol -listen /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/{port} : Runs Gravitation with specific multiadresss and default profile ./GravitationProtocol -listen /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/{another port} : To create other peer

Relavant Flags:

• save [filename] : Saves Gravitation Data to file after program is closed [Ctrl+C]
• load [filename] : Loads gravitation data from file
• profile "test1 test2 test3 test4" : Double-quoted, space separated list of profile values.
• test [filename]: Runs test with specified test file
