hopr_lib/

lib.rs

//! HOPR library creating a unified [`Hopr`] object that can be used on its own,
//! as well as integrated into other systems and libraries.
//!
//! The [`Hopr`] object is standalone, meaning that once it is constructed and run,
//! it will perform its functionality autonomously. The API it offers serves as a
//! high-level integration point for other applications and utilities, but offers
//! a complete and fully featured HOPR node stripped from top level functionality
//! such as the REST API, key management...
//!
//! The intended way to use hopr_lib is for a specific tool to be built on top of it;
//! should the default `hoprd` implementation not be acceptable.
//!
//! For most of the practical use cases, the `hoprd` application should be a preferable
//! choice.
