Network tools
In its current state, dchat is ready to use. But there's steps we can
take to improve it. If we connect dchat to JSON-RPC, we gain access to
a tool called dnetview
that allows us to visually explore connections
and messages on the p2p network.
As well as facilitating debugging, connecting
dnetview
is a good excuse to dive into DarkFi's rpc
module
which is essential to the DarkFi code base.
This section will cover:
- DarkFi's JSON-RPC interface
- Exploring the p2p network topology using
dnetview
