Detailed Description

Consumer logic to subscribe to producer's data.

Application needs to call sendHelloInterest to get the subscription list in psync::ReceiveHelloCallback. It can then add the desired names using addSubscription. Finally application will call sendSyncInterest. If the application adds something later to the subscription list then it may call sendSyncInterest again for sending the next sync interest with updated IBF immediately to reduce any delay in sync data. Whenever there is new data UpdateCallback will be called to notify the application.

If consumer wakes up after a long time to sync, producer may not decode the differences with its old IBF successfully and send an application nack. Upon receiving the nack, consumer will send a hello again and inform the application via psync::ReceiveHelloCallback and psync::UpdateCallback.

Currently, fetching of the data needs to be handled by the application.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Consumer()

psync::Consumer::Consumer	(	const ndn::Name &	syncPrefix,
		ndn::Face &	face,
		const ReceiveHelloCallback &	onReceiveHelloData,
		const UpdateCallback &	onUpdate,
		unsigned int	count,
		double	false_positive = 0.001,
		ndn::time::milliseconds	helloInterestLifetime = HELLO_INTEREST_LIFETIME,
		ndn::time::milliseconds	syncInterestLifetime = SYNC_INTEREST_LIFETIME
	)

constructor

Parameters

syncPrefix	syncPrefix to send hello/sync interests to producer
face	application's face
onReceiveHelloData	call back to give hello data back to application
onUpdate	call back to give sync data back to application
count	bloom filter number of expected elements (subscriptions) in bloom filter
false_positive	bloom filter false positive probability
helloInterestLifetime	lifetime of hello interest
syncInterestLifetime	lifetime of sync interest

Member Function Documentation

addSubscription()

bool psync::Consumer::addSubscription	(	const ndn::Name &	prefix,
		uint64_t	seqNo,
		bool	callSyncDataCb = true
	)

Add prefix to subscription list.

Parameters

prefix	prefix to be added to the list
seqNo	the latest sequence number for the prefix received in HelloData callback
callSyncDataCb	true by default to let app know that a new sequence number is available. Usually sequence number is zero in hello data, but when it is not Consumer can notify the app. Since the app is aware of the latest sequence number by ReceiveHelloCallback, app may choose to not let Consumer call UpdateCallback by setting this to false.

Returns

true if prefix is added, false if it is already present

sendHelloInterest()

void psync::Consumer::sendHelloInterest

(

)

send hello interest /<sync-prefix>/hello/

Should be called by the application whenever it wants to send a hello

sendSyncInterest()

void psync::Consumer::sendSyncInterest

(

)

Should be called after subscription list is set or updated

stop()

void psync::Consumer::stop

(

)

Stop segment fetcher to stop the sync and free resources.
