Attribution. + + 1.

You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any + reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in + which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be + reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or + hyperlink to a resource that includes the required + information. + + 3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the + information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent + reasonably practicable. + + b. ShareAlike. + + In addition to the conditions in Section 3(a), if You Share + Adapted Material You produce, the following conditions also apply. + + 1. The Adapter's License You apply must be a Creative Commons + license with the same License Elements, this version or + later, or a BY-SA Compatible License. + + 2. You must include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, the + Adapter's License You apply. You may satisfy this condition + in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and + context in which You Share Adapted Material. + + 3. You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms + or conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological + Measures to, Adapted Material that restrict exercise of the + rights granted under the Adapter's License You apply. + + +Section 4 -- Sui Generis Database Rights. + +Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that +apply to Your use of the Licensed Material: + + a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right + to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial + portion of the contents of the database; + + b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database + contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database + Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database + Rights (but not its individual contents) is Adapted Material, + including for purposes of Section 3(b); and + + c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share + all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database. + +For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not +replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed +Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights. + + +Section 5 -- Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability. + + a. UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE + EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS + AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF + ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS, + IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER.

WHERE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT + ALLOWED IN FULL OR IN PART, THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. + + b. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE + TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, + NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, + INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER LOSSES, + COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS PUBLIC LICENSE OR + USE OF THE LICENSED MATERIAL, EVEN IF THE LICENSOR HAS BEEN + ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR + DAMAGES. WHERE A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FULL OR + IN PART, THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. + + c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided + above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent + possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and + waiver of all liability. + + +Section 6 -- Term and Termination. + + a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and + Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with + this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License + terminate automatically. + + b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under + Section 6(a), it reinstates: + + 1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided + it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the + violation; or + + 2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor. + + For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any + right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations + of this Public License. + + c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the + Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop + distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so + will not terminate this Public License. + + d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public + License. + + +Section 7 -- Other Terms and Conditions. + + a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different + terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed. + + b. Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the + Licensed Material not stated herein are separate from and + independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License. + + +Section 8 -- Interpretation. + + a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and + shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose + conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully + be made without permission under this Public License. + + b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is + deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the + minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision + cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License + without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and + conditions. + + c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no + failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the + Licensor. + + d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted + as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities + that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal + processes of any jurisdiction or authority. + + +======================================================================= + +Creative Commons is not a party to its public +licenses.

+Section 2 -- Scope.
+
+  a. License grant.
+
+       1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License,
+          the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
+          non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to
+          exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
+
+            a. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or
+               in part; and
+
+            b. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
+
+       2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
+          Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public
+          License does not apply, and You do not need to comply with
+          its terms and conditions.
+
+       3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section
+          6(a).
+
+       4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The
+          Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in
+          all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created,
+          and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The
+          Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or
+          authority to forbid You from making technical modifications
+          necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
+          technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
+          Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License,
+          simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)
+          (4) never produces Adapted Material.
+
+       5. Downstream recipients.
+
+            a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material. Every
+               recipient of the Licensed Material automatically
+               receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
+               Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this
+               Public License.
+
+            b. Additional offer from the Licensor -- Adapted Material.
+               Every recipient of Adapted Material from You
+               automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to
+               exercise the Licensed Rights in the Adapted Material
+               under the conditions of the Adapter's License You apply.
+
+            c. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose
+               any additional or different terms or conditions on, or
+               apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the
+               Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the
+               Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed
+               Material.
+
+       6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or
+          may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You
+          are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected

+          Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society
+          under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory
+          licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly
+          reserves any right to collect such royalties.
+
+
+Section 3 -- License Conditions.
+
+Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
+following conditions.
+
+  a. Attribution.
+
+       1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified
+          form), You must:

+            b. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and
+               retain an indication of any previous modifications; and
+
+            c. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this
+               Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or
+               hyperlink to, this Public License.
+
+       2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any
+          reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in
+          which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be
+          reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or
+          hyperlink to a resource that includes the required
+          information.
+
+       3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the
+          information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent
+          reasonably practicable.
+
+  b. ShareAlike.
+
+     In addition to the conditions in Section 3(a), if You Share
+     Adapted Material You produce, the following conditions also apply.
+
+       1. The Adapter's License You apply must be a Creative Commons
+          license with the same License Elements, this version or
+          later, or a BY-SA Compatible License.
+
+       2. You must include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, the
+          Adapter's License You apply. You may satisfy this condition
+          in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and

+          rights granted under the Adapter's License You apply.
+
+
+Section 4 -- Sui Generis Database Rights.
+
+Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that
+apply to Your use of the Licensed Material:
+
+  a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right
+     to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial
+     portion of the contents of the database;
+
+  b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database
+     contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database
+     Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database
+     Rights (but not its individual contents) is Adapted Material,
+     including for purposes of Section 3(b); and
+
+  c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share
+     all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.
+
+For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not
+replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed
+Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights.
+
+
+Section 5 -- Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.
+
+  a. UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE
+     EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS
+     AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF
+     ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS,
+     IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
+     WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+     PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS,
+     ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT
+     KNOWN OR DISCOVERABLE. WHERE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT
+     ALLOWED IN FULL OR IN PART, THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
+
+  b. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE
+     TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
+     NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
+     INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER LOSSES,
+     COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS PUBLIC LICENSE OR
+     USE OF THE LICENSED MATERIAL, EVEN IF THE LICENSOR HAS BEEN
+     ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR
+     DAMAGES. WHERE A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FULL OR
+     IN PART, THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
+
+  c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided
+     above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent
+     possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and
+     waiver of all liability.
+
+
+Section 6 -- Term and Termination.
+
+  a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and
+     Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with
+     this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License
+     terminate automatically.
+
+  b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under
+     Section 6(a), it reinstates:
+
+       1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided
+          it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the
+          violation; or
+
+       2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
+
+     For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any
+     right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations
+     of this Public License.
+
+  c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the
+     Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop
+     distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so
+     will not terminate this Public License.
+
+  d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public
+     License.
+
+
+Section 7 -- Other Terms and Conditions.
+
+  a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different
+     terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.

+     independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License.
+
+
+Section 8 -- Interpretation.
+
+  a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and
+     shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose
+     conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully
+     be made without permission under this Public License.
+
+  b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is
+     deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the
+     minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision
+     cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License
+     without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and
+     conditions.
+
+  c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no
+     failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the
+     Licensor.
+
+  d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted
+     as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities
+     that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal
+     processes of any jurisdiction or authority.

It is based heavily on the https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/blob/master/PROTOCOL.key[OpenSSH "v1" key format^] https://git.r00t2.io/r00t2/go_sshkeys/src/branch/master/_ref/KEY_GUIDE.html#v1_plain_2[(example/details)] packing method. + +It supports arbitrary binary values, which means they can be anything according to the implementation-specific details; a common practice is to encode ("marshal") a Go struct to JSON bytes, and set that as a WireProto field's value. + +It supports both static construction/parsing/dissection and stream approaches in a single format, as well as multiple commands per request message/multiple answers per response message. + +*All* packed uint32 values are big-endian. + +This specification <> is `{this_protover}` (`{this_protover_hex}`). + +[id="lib"] +=== Library +This protocol specification is accompanied with a reference library for Golang, https://git.r00t2.io/r00t2/go_wireproto["WireProto"^] (https://git.r00t2.io/r00t2/wireproto[_source_^]): + +++++ + + Go Reference + +++++ + +[id="ytho"] +=== Why a Custom Message Format? +Because existing ones (e.g. JSON, XML, YAML) are slow/bloaty, inaccurate, and/or inflexible. They struggle with binary or abritrary data (or in e.g. XML's case requiring intermediate conditional encoding/decoding). + +If it can be represented as bytes (which all digital data can), WireProto can send and receive it. + +Additionally: + +* https://protobuf.dev/[*Protobuf*^] has performance issues (yes, really; protobufs have large overhead) and is restrictive on data types for future-proofing. +* https://go.dev/blog/gob[*Gob*^] is very language-limiting and does not support e.g. nil pointers and cyclical values. +* https://capnproto.org/[Cap'n Proto^] has wide language support and excellent performance but is terribly non-idiomatic, requiring the code to be generated from the schema and not vice versa (which is only ideal if you have only one communication interface). +* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_streaming[JSON streams^] have no delimiters defined, and thus this makes it an inconvenience if using a parser that does not know when the message ends/is complete, or if it is expecting a standalone JSON object. + +[TIP] +==== +WireProto is only used for binary packing/unpacking; this means it can be used with any e.g. https://pkg.go.dev/net#Conn[`net.Conn`^] (and even has helper functions explicitly to facilitate this), storage on-disk, etc. + +Thus it is transport/storage-agnostic, and can be used with a https://pkg.go.dev/net#Dial[TCP socket, UDP socket, IPC (InterProcess Communication)/UDS (UNIX Domain Socket) handle,^] https://pkg.go.dev/crypto/tls#Dial[TLS-tunneled TCP socket^], etc. +==== + +[id="msg"] +== Message Format + +[TIP] +==== +Throughout this document, you may see references to things like `LF`, `SOH`, and so forth. + +These refer to _ASCII control characters_. You will also see many values represented in hex. + +You can find more details about this (along with a full ASCII reference) https://square-r00t.net/ascii.html[here^].

+     Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before
+     applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the

+     rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests,
+     such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
+     Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
+     respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations

+Section 2 -- Scope.
+
+  a. License grant.
+
+       1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License,
+          the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
+          non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to
+          exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
+
+            a. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or
+               in part; and
+
+            b. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
+
+       2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
+          Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public
+          License does not apply, and You do not need to comply with
+          its terms and conditions.
+
+       3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section
+          6(a).
+
+       4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The
+          Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in
+          all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created,
+          and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The
+          Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or
+          authority to forbid You from making technical modifications
+          necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
+          technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
+          Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License,
+          simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)
+          (4) never produces Adapted Material.
+
+       5. Downstream recipients.
+
+            a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material. Every
+               recipient of the Licensed Material automatically
+               receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
+               Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this
+               Public License.
+
+            b. Additional offer from the Licensor -- Adapted Material.
+               Every recipient of Adapted Material from You
+               automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to
+               exercise the Licensed Rights in the Adapted Material
+               under the conditions of the Adapter's License You apply.
+
+            c. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose
+               any additional or different terms or conditions on, or
+               apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the
+               Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the
+               Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed
+               Material.
+
+       6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or
+          may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You
+          are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected
+          with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by,
+          the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as
+          provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
+
+  b. Other rights.
+
+       1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not
+          licensed under this Public License, nor are publicity,
+          privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to
+          the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to
+          assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited
+          extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed
+          Rights, but not otherwise.
+
+       2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this
+          Public License.
+
+       3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to
+          collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed
+          Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society
+          under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory
+          licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly
+          reserves any right to collect such royalties.
+
+
+Section 3 -- License Conditions.
+
+Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
+following conditions.
+
+  a. Attribution.
+
+       1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified
+          form), You must:
+
+            a. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor
+               with the Licensed Material:
+
+                 i. identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed
+                    Material and any others designated to receive
+                    attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by
+                    the Licensor (including by pseudonym if
+                    designated);
+
+                ii. a copyright notice;
+
+               iii. a notice that refers to this Public License;
+
+                iv. a notice that refers to the disclaimer of
+                    warranties;
+
+                 v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the
+                    extent reasonably practicable;
+
+            b. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and
+               retain an indication of any previous modifications; and
+
+            c. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this
+               Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or
+               hyperlink to, this Public License.
+
+       2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any
+          reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in
+          which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be
+          reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or
+          hyperlink to a resource that includes the required
+          information.
+
+       3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the
+          information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent
+          reasonably practicable.
+
+  b. ShareAlike.
+
+     In addition to the conditions in Section 3(a), if You Share
+     Adapted Material You produce, the following conditions also apply.
+
+       1. The Adapter's License You apply must be a Creative Commons
+          license with the same License Elements, this version or
+          later, or a BY-SA Compatible License.
+
+       2. You must include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, the
+          Adapter's License You apply. You may satisfy this condition
+          in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and
+          context in which You Share Adapted Material.
+
+       3. You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms
+          or conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological
+          Measures to, Adapted Material that restrict exercise of the
+          rights granted under the Adapter's License You apply.
+
+
+Section 4 -- Sui Generis Database Rights.
+
+Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that
+apply to Your use of the Licensed Material:
+
+  a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right
+     to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial
+     portion of the contents of the database;
+
+  b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database
+     contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database
+     Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database
+     Rights (but not its individual contents) is Adapted Material,
+     including for purposes of Section 3(b); and
+
+  c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share
+     all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.
+
+For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not
+replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed
+Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights.
+
+
+Section 5 -- Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.
+
+  a. UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE
+     EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS
+     AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF
+     ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS,
+     IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
+     WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+     PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS,
+     ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT
+     KNOWN OR DISCOVERABLE. WHERE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT
+     ALLOWED IN FULL OR IN PART, THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
+
+  b. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE
+     TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
+     NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
+     INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER LOSSES,
+     COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS PUBLIC LICENSE OR
+     USE OF THE LICENSED MATERIAL, EVEN IF THE LICENSOR HAS BEEN
+     ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR
+     DAMAGES. WHERE A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FULL OR
+     IN PART, THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
+
+  c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided
+     above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent
+     possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and
+     waiver of all liability.
+
+
+Section 6 -- Term and Termination.
+
+  a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and
+     Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with
+     this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License
+     terminate automatically.
+
+  b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under
+     Section 6(a), it reinstates:
+
+       1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided
+          it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the
+          violation; or
+
+       2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
+
+     For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any
+     right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations
+     of this Public License.
+
+  c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the
+     Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop
+     distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so
+     will not terminate this Public License.
+
+  d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public
+     License.
+
+
+Section 7 -- Other Terms and Conditions.
+
+  a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different
+     terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.
+
+  b. Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the

+     independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License.
+
+
+Section 8 -- Interpretation.
+
+  a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and

+     conditions.
+
+  c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no
+     failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the
+     Licensor.
+

2. Protocol

+
+
+

The WireProto data packing API is a custom wire protocol//message format designed for incredibly performant, unambiguous, predictable, platform-agnostic, client-agnostic communication. It is based heavily on the OpenSSH "v1" key format (example/details) packing method.

+
+
+

It supports arbitrary binary values, which means they can be anything according to the implementation-specific details; a common practice is to encode ("marshal") a Go struct to JSON bytes, and set that as a WireProto field’s value.

+
+
+

It supports both static construction/parsing/dissection and stream approaches in a single format, as well as multiple commands per request message/multiple answers per response message.

+
+
+

All packed uint32 values are big-endian.

+
+
+

This specification Protocol Version is 1 (0x00000001).

+
+
+

2.1. Library

+
+

This protocol specification is accompanied with a reference library for Golang, "WireProto" (source):

+
+ + Go Reference + +
+
+

2.2. Why a Custom Message Format?

+
+

Because existing ones (e.g. JSON, XML, YAML) are slow/bloaty, inaccurate, and/or inflexible. They struggle with binary or abritrary data (or in e.g. XML’s case requiring intermediate conditional encoding/decoding).

+
+
+

If it can be represented as bytes (which all digital data can), WireProto can send and receive it.

+
+
+

Additionally:

+
+
+
    +
  • +

    Protobuf has performance issues (yes, really; protobufs have large overhead) and is restrictive on data types for future-proofing.

    +
  • +
  • +

    Gob is very language-limiting and does not support e.g. nil pointers and cyclical values.

    +
  • +
  • +

    Cap’n Proto has wide language support and excellent performance but is terribly non-idiomatic, requiring the code to be generated from the schema and not vice versa (which is only ideal if you have only one communication interface).

    +
  • +
  • +

    JSON streams have no delimiters defined, and thus this makes it an inconvenience if using a parser that does not know when the message ends/is complete, or if it is expecting a standalone JSON object.

    +
  • +
+
+
+ + + + + +
+
Tip
+
+
+

WireProto is only used for binary packing/unpacking; this means it can be used with any e.g. net.Conn (and even has helper functions explicitly to facilitate this), storage on-disk, etc.

+
+ +
+
+
+
+
+
+

3. Message Format

+
+
+ + + + + +
+
Tip
+
+
+

Throughout this document, you may see references to things like LF, SOH, and so forth.

+
+
+

These refer to ASCII control characters. You will also see many values represented in hex.

+
+
+

You can find more details about this (along with a full ASCII reference) here. Note that the socket API fully supports UTF-8 — just be sure that your Size Allocator are aligned to the byte count, not character count.

+
+
+
+
+

Each message is generally composed of:

+
+
+ +
+
+

3.1. Response Status

+
+

For responses, their messages have an additional byte prepended; a status indicator. +This allows client programs to quickly bail in the case of an error if no further parsing is desired.

+
+
+

The status will be indicated by one of two values: an ASCII ACK (0x06) for all requests being returned successfully or an ASCII NAK (0x15) if one or more errors were encountered across all records.

+
+
+
+

3.2. Protocol Version

+
+

The protocol version is a packed uint32 that denotes which version of this protocol specification is being used.

+
+
+

It is maintained seperately from the library version/repo tags.

+
+
+

The current protocol version (as demonstrated in this document) is 1 (0x00000001).

+
+
+ + + + + +
+
Note
+
+Version 0 is reserved for current HEAD of the master branch of this specification and should be considered experimental. +
+
+
+
+

3.3. Record Group

+
+

A record group contains multiple related Records. It is common to only have a single Record Group.

+
+
+

Its structure is:

+
+
+
    +
  1. +

    Record Count Allocator

    +
  2. +
  3. +

    Record Size Allocator

    +
  4. +
  5. +

    One (or more) Records

    +
  6. +
+
+
+

3.3.1. Record

+
+

A record contains multiple related Field/Value Pairs (FVP). It is typical to only have a single Record.

+
+
+

Its structure is:

+
+ +
+ + + + + +
+
Important
+
+
+

For response messages, the record’s size allocator (but NOT the count allocator) includes the Copy Record size for each response record copy![1]

+

3.3.1.1. Field/Value Pair (Key/Value Pair)
+
+

A field/value pair (also referred to as a key/value pair) contains a matched Field Name and its Field Value.

+
+
+

Its structure is:

+
+
+
    +
  1. +

    Field Name Size Allocator

    +
  2. +
  3. +

    Field Value Size Allocator

    +
  4. +
  5. +

    A single Field Name

    +
  6. +
  7. +

    A single matching Field Value

    +
  8. +
+
+
+ + + + + +
+
Important
+
+
+

Unlike most/all other Allocators for other sections/levels, the field name and value allocators are consecutive Size Allocators! This is because there is only one field name and value per record.

+
+
+
+
+
3.3.1.1.1. Field Name
+
+

The field name is usually from a finite set of allowed names. The Field Value, while written as bytes, often contains a data structure defined by the field name. (A field name is closer to a "value type".) It must be a UTF-8 string.

+
+
+

Its structure is:

+
+
+
    +
  1. +

    The name in bytes

    +
  2. +
+
+
+
+
3.3.1.1.2. Field Value
+
+

A field’s value is, on the wire, just a series of bytes. The actual content of those bytes, including any structure or encoding, is likely to/probably depends on the paired Field Name.

+
+
+

Its structure is:

+
+
+
    +
  1. +

    The value in bytes

    +
  2. +
+
+
+
+
+
3.3.1.2. Copy Record (Response Copy of Request)
+
+

This contains a "copy" of the original/request’s Record that this record is in response to.

+
+
+

It is a variant of a Record used exclusively in responses, and is tied to (included in) each response’s FVP.

+
+
+

Its structure is:

+
+ +
+
3.3.1.2.1. Field/Value Pair (Key/Value Pair) (Response Copy)
+
+

A field/value pair (also referred to as a key/value pair) contains a matched Field Name and its Field Value.

+
+
+

It is a variant of a Field/Value Pair used exclusively in response copies of the original request’s FVP.

+
+
+

Its structure is:

+
+
+
    +
  1. +

    Field Name Size Allocator

    +
  2. +
  3. +

    Field Value Size Allocator

    +
  4. +
  5. +

    A single Field Name

    +
  6. +
  7. +

    A single matching Field Value

    +
  8. +
+
+
+ + + + + +
+
Important
+
+
+

Unlike most/all other Allocators for other sections/levels, the field name and value allocators are consecutive Size Allocators! This is because there is only one field name and value per record.

+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+

4. Checksums

+
+
+

Checksums are optional for the client but the server will always send them. If present in the request, the server will validate to ensure the checksum matches the message body (body start to body end, headers included). If the checksum does not match, an error will be returned.

+
+
+

They are represented as a big-endian-packed uint32.

+
+
+

The checksum must be prefixed with a CKSUM Header Prefix. If no checksum is provided, this prefix must not be included in the sequence.

+
+
+ + + + + +
+
Tip
+
+
+

You can quickly check if a checksum is present by checking the first byte in requests or the second byte in responses. If it is ESC (0x1b), a checksum is provided. If it is SOH (0x01), one was not provided.

+
+
+
+
+

The checksum method used is the IEEE 802.3 CRC-32, which should be natively available for all/most client implementations as it is perhaps the most ubiquitous of CRC-32 variants. (Polynomial 0x04c11db7, reversed polynomial 0xedb88320.)

+
+
+

To confirm you are using the correct CRC32 implementation (as there are a ton of "CRC-32" algorithms and methods out there), use the following validations:

5. Headers

+
+
+

Certain sections are wrapped with an identifying header. Those headers are included below for reference.

+
+
+

5.1. RESPSTART Byte Sequence

+
+

Responses have a Response Status.[1]

+
+
+

It is either an ACK (0x06) or NAK (0x15).

+
+
+
+

5.2. CKSUM Header Prefix

+
+

A checksum, if provided, will have a prefix header of ESC (0x1b).

+
+
+
+

5.3. MSGSTART Header Prefix

+
+

The message start header indicates a start of a message.

+
+
+

It is an SOH (0x01).

+
+
+
+

5.4. BODYSTART Header Prefix

+
+

The body start header indicates that actual data/records follows.

+
+
+

It is an STX (0x02).

+
+
+
+

5.5. BODYEND Sequence

+
+

The body end prefix indicates the end of data/records.

+
+
+

It is an ETX (0x03).

+
+
+
+

5.6. MSGEND Sequence

+
+

The message end prefix indicates that a message in its entirety has ended.

+
+
+

It is an EOT (0x04).

+
+
+
+
+
+

6. Allocators

+
+
+

There are two type of allocators included for each following sequence of bytes: count allocators and size allocators.

+
+
+

They can be used by clients to determine the size of destination buffers, and are used by the server to efficiently unpack requests.

+
+
+

They are usually paired together with the count allocator preceding the size allocator, but not always (e.g. Field/Value Pair (Key/Value Pair) have two Size Allocator).

+
+
+

All allocators are unsigned 32-bit integers, little-endian-packed.

+
+
+

6.1. Count Allocator

+
+

Count allocators indicate how many children objects are contained.

+
+
+
+

6.2. Size Allocator

+
+

Size allocators indicate how much (in bytes) all children objects are combined together. It includes e.g. separators, etc.

+
+
+
+
+
+

7. Reference Model and Examples

+
+
+
