Enum libp2p::gossipsub::MessageAuthenticity

pub enum MessageAuthenticity {
    Signed(Keypair),
    Author(PeerId),
    RandomAuthor,
    Anonymous,
}

[−] Expand description

Determines if published messages should be signed or not.

Without signing, a number of privacy preserving modes can be selected.

NOTE: The default validation settings are to require signatures. The ValidationMode should be updated in the GossipsubConfig to allow for unsigned messages.

Variants

Signed(Keypair)

[−] Expand description

Message signing is enabled. The author will be the owner of the key and the sequence number will be a random number.

Author(PeerId)

[−] Expand description

Message signing is disabled.

The specified PeerId will be used as the author of all published messages. The sequence number will be randomized.

RandomAuthor

[−] Expand description

Message signing is disabled.

A random PeerId will be used when publishing each message. The sequence number will be randomized.

Anonymous

[−] Expand description

Message signing is disabled.

The author of the message and the sequence numbers are excluded from the message.

NOTE: Excluding these fields may make these messages invalid by other nodes who enforce validation of these fields. See ValidationMode in the GossipsubConfig for how to customise this for rust-libp2p gossipsub. A custom message_id function will need to be set to prevent all messages from a peer being filtered as duplicates.
