type Service ¶
type Service struct {
// Port specifies the type of service based on the well known port used by the
// protocol. For bitcoin, for example, this would be 8333 for its peer to peer
// listener, for SSH it would be 22, and so on.
Port uint16
// RelayRate is the fee in mSAT for megabytes forwarded to and returned from the
// service.
RelayRate uint32
// Transport is a channel that will have a network handler at the other end to
// dispatch and return replies to the Engine.
tpt.Transport

Service is a specification for a publicly accessible service available at a relay.
Through this mechanism relay operators can effectively create a paywall for a service, or at least cover their operating costs. Hidden services can do this also, with server side anonymity.
todo: hidden services need a session type.
