Implementation of the chord peer-to-peer networking protocol, introduced by Stoica et al.

ChordNet

Python implementation of the chord protocol, introduced by Stoica et al. This library began as a group project for cs536 at Purdue University in Fall 2024.

Installation

pip install chordnet

uv add chordnet

Usage

to stay consistent with the language from the original paper, we recommend naming your chordnet attribute ring:

from chordnet import ChordNet

ring = new ChordNet(...)
ring.create()
# or ring.join(...)
#...
ring.leave()

This fits with the concept of "joining" an existing ring network, or creating a new one. Examples follow this practice.
