区块链开发:P2P网络 #C10
P2P技术目前已经广泛应用于流媒体、点对点通讯以及文件协同共享等领域,区块链的去中心化特性也少不了其功劳。P2P网络协议有很多,例如BitTorrent、ED2K、Gnutella、Tor等,目前的主流数字货币都实现了自己的P2P网络协议。
P2P协议目前多基于TCP/IP协议,与HTTP协议不同,P2P网络中没有中心化的服务器,完全变成点对点的拓扑结构,每个节点既是服务器,也是客户端。
在实际区块链应用中,不同类型的节点之间交互协议比较复杂,这里我们将其简化,基于前文的区块链结构和DPoS共识,设计一个简单的P2P网络模块。
基本结构
这里我们将基于TCP/IP来实现P2P网络模型,节点默认都是超级节点,而对于普通节点,可以采用同步超级节点的方式,这里不在本文的讨论范围之内。
var net = require("net");
var Msg = require("./message");
var EventEmitter = require('events').EventEmitter;
var Promise = require("bluebird");
var PORT = 8000;
class Node extends EventEmitter {
constructor(id) {
super();
this.id_ = id;
this.peers_ = {};
let self = this;
this.server_ = net.createServer((socket) => {
socket.setEncoding('utf8');
socket.on('data', (data) => { self.on_data(data, socket); });
socket.on('end', () => { self.remove_peer(socket); });
});
this.server_.listen(PORT + id);
}
}
我们使用net
模块来进行网络连接,每个节点创建时会自动创建一个TCP server,并监听指定的端口(与节点ID有关)。peers_
用于记录当前节点连接的其他节点。
网络模型
P2P网络拓扑有很多种,有些是传统的中心化拓扑结构,有些是半中心化拓扑结构和去中心化拓扑结构。例如比特币的全节点网络就是一个去中心化拓扑结构,节点与节点之间的传输过程更接近“泛洪算法”,即:交易从某个节点产生,接着广播到临近节点,临近节点一传十十传百,直至传播到全网。
我们也采用这种“泛洪算法”来构建一个去中心化的拓扑结构,每个节点启动时会随机连接一些其他的节点,然后发送connection消息,将自己的信息发送给对方,这样对方收到消息后就能把信息加入自己的peers_
列表,双方建立连接。
async start() {
for (var i = 0; i < 5; ++i) {
var remote_id = Math.floor(Math.random() * 20); // [0, 20)
if (remote_id !== this.id_ && !this.peers_[remote_id]) {
let self = this;
// console.log(`${this.id_}-->${remote_id}`);
var socket = net.createConnection({ port: (PORT + remote_id) });
await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
socket.on('connect', () => {
resolve();
});
socket.on('error', function (e) {
resolve();
});
socket.setEncoding('utf8');
socket.on('data', (data) => { self.on_data(data, socket); });
});
// console.log(`id: ${self.id_} connected to remote_id: ${remote_id}`);
let data = Msg.connection(self.id_);
self.send(socket, data);
self.add_peer(socket, remote_id);
}
}
}
on_data(data, socket) {
try {
var arr = data.split("\r\n");
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; ++i) {
if (arr[i] == '') continue;
let obj = JSON.parse(arr[i]);
if (obj.type == Msg.type.Connection) {
// if data is connection info, add peer and response
let remote_id = obj.data;
this.add_peer(socket, remote_id);
// console.log(`node ${this.id_} receive connection: ${remote_id}`);
// console.log(`${this.id_}-->${remote_id}`);
} else {
// else emit msg to blockchain
this.emit("message", obj);
}
}
} catch (err) {
console.log(`node: ${this.id_}\t receive msg error`);
console.log(err);
console.log(err.message);
throw new Error();
}
}
send(socket, data) {
if (typeof data === 'object') {
data = JSON.stringify(data);
}
socket.write(data + "\r\n");
}
broadcast(data) {
for (var index in this.peers_) {
let socket = this.peers_[index];
this.send(socket, data);
}
}
add_peer(socket, remote_id) {
if (!this.peers_[remote_id]) {
this.peers_[remote_id] = socket;
// console.log(`${this.id_}-->${remote_id}`);
}
}
remove_peer(socket) {
for (var index in this.peers_) {
if (this.peers_[index] == socket) {
delete this.peers_[index];
break;
}
}
}
当我们需要广播消息时,也是将消息发送给与当前节点连接的peer节点,peer节点收到消息后继续广播下去。
测试
我们启动20个节点然后让它们轮流记账,得到如下的结果:

可以看到节点18出现了分叉,而其他节点都是按照顺序产生区块。但是查看节点的连接信息,发现节点18并不是孤岛,所以猜测是因为我们节点启动后马上进行挖矿并广播,此时节点之间的P2P网络可能还没有建立好。在这里我们手动将挖矿起始时间延后,等待节点建立完成之后再进行挖矿,可以看到调整后可以避免这种情况。

在以太坊中,每个节点保持与至少13个其他节点的连接。而在我们的实现中,每个节点都尝试连接5个peer,但由于启动的先后顺序,有的节点被连接时还没有启动,这就会造成连接数进一步减少,一种解决办法时使用ZeroMQ
协议来进行热启动连接。
总结
我们这里实现的P2P网络模型只是一个简化了的网络传输模块,只考虑了超级节点的模型。节点的发现过程也是将节点IP硬编码进去的,实际区块链中还分为初始节点和启动后节点发现,还有黑名单与白名单、网络穿透等问题需要考虑,很多的细节问题这里都没有涉及,仅可作为P2P网络最基本的学习使用。
