PSync: Partial and Full Synchronization Library for NDN

Latest version Language CI Docs

The PSync library implements the PSync protocol. It uses Invertible Bloom Lookup Table (IBLT), also known as Invertible Bloom Filter (IBF), to represent the state of a producer in partial sync mode and the state of a node in full sync mode. An IBF is a compact data structure where difference of two IBFs can be computed efficiently. In partial sync, PSync uses a Bloom Filter to represent the subscription list of the consumer.

PSync uses the ndn-cxx library.

Installation

Prerequisites

Build

To build PSync from source:

./waf configure
./waf
sudo ./waf install

To build on memory constrained systems, please use ./waf -j1 instead of ./waf. This will disable parallel compilation.

If configured with tests (./waf configure --with-tests), the above commands will also build a suite of unit tests that can be run with ./build/unit-tests.

Reporting bugs

Please submit any bug reports or feature requests to the PSync issue tracker.
