PluginOp: Pluginizable Operations

One day, we will make the Internet great again. In the meantime, we struggle with engineering problems.

PluginOp is a crate intending to make (Rust) network implementation seamlessly pluginizable. The project consists in several sub-crates:

• pluginop-common: contains all the common structures (part of the standardized API) shared by both the plugins and the host implementation
• pluginop: the main crate of this project, used by the host implementation to be pluginizable
• pluginop-macro: contains macros to be used by the host implementation to pluginize its functions using one-liners
• pluginop-mock: a mocking host implementation used to test and benchmark the whole project
• pluginop-octets: a fork of the quiche's octets crate with support to raw pointer conversion
• pluginop-rawptr: an abstraction over raw pointers
• pluginop-wasm: the crate offering an API to plugins

The tests folder contains plugins for tests and benchmarks purposes.

Supported Core Implementations

• core-quic: Based on quiche, main core implementation
• core-quinn: Based on quinn, mostly integrated in the quinn-proto crate. Does not have full support (yet), but simple frame-based plugins work.

Existing plugins

QUIC-specific plugins are available at the core-quic-plugins repo.
