<p>A number of examples are included in the source distribution of Reticulum.
You can use these examples to learn how to write your own programs.</p>
<section id="minimal">

<p>The <em>Minimal</em> example demonstrates the bare-minimum setup required to connect to
a Reticulum network from your program. In about five lines of code, you will
have the Reticulum Network Stack initialised, and ready to pass traffic in your
program.</p>

<span class="c1"># Channel data must be structured in a subclass of</span>
<span class="c1"># MessageBase. This ensures that the channel will be able</span>
<span class="c1"># to serialize and deserialize the object and multiplex it</span>
<span class="c1"># with other objects. Both ends of a link will need the</span>
<span class="c1"># same object definitions to be able to communicate over</span>
<span class="c1"># a channel.</span>
<span class="c1">#</span>
<span class="c1"># Note: The objects we wish to use over the channel must</span>
<span class="c1"># be registered with the channel, and each link has a</span>
<span class="c1"># different channel instance. See the client_connected</span>
<span class="c1"># and link_established functions in this example to see</span>
<span class="c1"># how message types are registered.</span>
<span class="c1"># Let&#39;s make a simple message class called StringMessage</span>
<span class="c1"># that will convey a string with a timestamp.</span>
<span class="k">class</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nc">StringMessage</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">RNS</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">MessageBase</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="c1"># The MSGTYPE class variable needs to be assigned a</span>
<span class="c1"># 2 byte integer value. This identifier allows the</span>
<span class="c1"># channel to look up your message&#39;s constructor when a</span>
<span class="c1"># message arrives over the channel.</span>
<span class="c1">#</span>
<span class="c1"># MSGTYPE must be unique across all message types we</span>
<span class="c1"># register with the channel. MSGTYPEs &gt;= 0xf000 are</span>
<span class="c1"># reserved for the system.</span>
<span class="n">MSGTYPE</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="mh">0x0101</span>
<span class="c1"># The constructor of our object must be callable with</span>
<span class="c1"># no arguments. We can have parameters, but they must</span>
<span class="c1"># have a default assignment.</span>
<span class="c1">#</span>
<span class="c1"># This is needed so the channel can create an empty</span>
<span class="c1"># version of our message into which the incoming</span>
<span class="c1"># message can be unpacked.</span>

<span class="c1"># Finally, our message needs to implement functions</span>
<span class="c1"># the channel can call to pack and unpack our message</span>
<span class="c1"># to/from the raw packet payload. We&#39;ll use the</span>
<span class="c1"># umsgpack package bundled with RNS. We could also use</span>
<span class="c1"># the struct package bundled with Python if we wanted</span>
<span class="c1"># more control over the structure of the packed bytes.</span>
<span class="c1">#</span>
<span class="c1"># Also note that packed message objects must fit</span>
<span class="c1"># entirely in one packet. The number of bytes</span>
<span class="c1"># available for message payloads can be queried from</span>
<span class="c1"># the channel using the Channel.MDU property. The</span>
<span class="c1"># channel MDU is slightly less than the link MDU due</span>
<span class="c1"># to encoding the message header.</span>
<span class="c1"># The pack function encodes the message contents into</span>

<p>The <em>Filetransfer</em> example implements a basic file-server program that
allow clients to connect and download files. The program uses the Resource
interface to efficiently pass files of any size over a Reticulum <a class="reference internal" href="reference.html#api-link"><span class="std std-ref">Link</span></a>.</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="c1">##########################################################</span>
<span class="c1"># This RNS example demonstrates a simple filetransfer #</span>
<span class="c1"># server and client program. The server will serve a #</span>
<span class="c1"># directory of files, and the clients can list and #</span>
<span class="c1"># download files from the server. #</span>
<span class="c1"># #</span>
<span class="c1"># Please note that using RNS Resources for large file #</span>
<span class="c1"># transfers is not recommended, since compression, #</span>
<span class="c1"># encryption and hashmap sequencing can take a long time #</span>
<span class="c1"># on systems with slow CPUs, which will probably result #</span>
<span class="c1"># in the client timing out before the resource sender #</span>
<span class="c1"># can complete preparing the resource. #</span>
<span class="c1"># #</span>
<span class="c1"># If you need to transfer large files, use the Bundle #</span>
<span class="c1"># class instead, which will automatically slice the data #</span>
<span class="c1"># into chunks suitable for packing as a Resource. #</span>
