Module prelude 

Curated re-exports for the most common umbrella-crate entry points.

This prelude intentionally favors the application-facing path: Host -> LocalNode -> PeerConnection -> payload wrapper.

Lower-level MAC coordinator types remain available from [crate::mac], but are not pulled into the prelude by default.

Structs

BoundChannel

A channel bound to a specific LocalNode. Implements Transport.

Channel

A channel descriptor — holds the key, derived ID, and display name.

ChannelId

Two-byte multicast channel identifier.

ChannelInfoRef

Borrowing view of an inbound MAC event.

ChannelKey

Raw 32-byte multicast channel secret.

Host

Multi-identity orchestration layer for the node API.

LocalIdentityId

Opaque handle that identifies a locally registered identity within the [Mac] coordinator.

LocalNode

Per-identity application handle.

MessageSequence

Message Sequence option value.

MulticastTextChatWrapper

NodeCapabilities

NodeIdentityPayload

OwnedTextMessage

Owned counterpart of TextMessage.

PeerConnection

Relationship with one remote peer, bound to a transport context.

PublicKey

Node public key, which also acts as the full network address.

ReceivedPacketRef

Borrowed view of one accepted inbound packet together with parsed on-wire metadata.

RouteHops

Iterator over packed two-byte route hops from a source-route or trace-route option.

RxMetadata

Local physical-layer observations captured when a frame was received.

SendOptions

High-level transmission options passed to Mac send helpers.

SendProgressTicket

Lightweight handle for observing the progress of an in-flight send.

SendToken

Identity-scoped send token.

Snr

Signal-to-noise ratio represented in centibels (0.1 dB units).

Subscription

Owned subscription guard.

TextMessage

Borrowed decoded text message.

UnicastTextChatWrapper

Thin convenience wrapper for plain unicast text chat over a peer connection.

Enums

CommandId

HostError

Error returned when a Host cannot make progress.

MacCommand

MessageType

Text-message rendering/control type.

NodeError

Errors produced by node-layer operations.

NodeRole

OwnedMacCommand

PacketFamily

Coarser grouping of on-wire packet types.

PayloadType

Application payload type carried inside the MAC body.

PfsStatus

Regarding

Regarding option value: a reference to a previously sent message.

Traits

Platform

Bundle of platform-specific associated types used by the higher layers.

Transport

A context through which UMSH frames can be sent.
