Protocol Documentation

service/meta.proto

RequestMetaHeader contains information about request meta headers (should be embedded into message)

Field	Type	Description
TTL	uint32	TTL must be larger than zero, it decreased in every NeoFS Node
Epoch	uint64	Epoch for user can be empty, because node sets epoch to the actual value
Version	uint32	Version defines protocol version TODO: not used for now, should be implemented in future

ResponseMetaHeader contains meta information based on request processing by server (should be embedded into message)

Field	Type	Label	Description
Epoch	uint64		Current NeoFS epoch on server
Version	uint32		Version defines protocol version TODO: not used for now, should be implemented in future

RequestVerificationHeader is a set of signatures of every NeoFS Node that processed request (should be embedded into message).

Field	Type	Label	Description
Signatures	RequestVerificationHeader.Signature	repeated	Signatures is a set of signatures of every passed NeoFS Node

Field	Type	Label	Description
Sign	bytes		Sign is signature of the request or session key.
Peer	bytes		Peer is compressed public key used for signature.

Field	Type	Label	Description
Sign	RequestVerificationHeader.Sign		Sign is a signature and public key of the request.
Origin	RequestVerificationHeader.Sign		Origin used for requests, when trusted node changes it and re-sign with session key. If session key used for signature request, then Origin should contain public key of user and signed session key.

Field	Type	Label	Description
IntField	int32
StringField	string
BytesField	bytes
CustomField	bytes
Meta	RequestMetaHeader
Header	RequestVerificationHeader

int32	Uses variable-length encoding. Inefficient for encoding negative numbers – if your field is likely to have negative values, use sint32 instead.	int32	int	int
int64	Uses variable-length encoding. Inefficient for encoding negative numbers – if your field is likely to have negative values, use sint64 instead.	int64	long	int/long
uint32	Uses variable-length encoding.	uint32	int	int/long
uint64	Uses variable-length encoding.	uint64	long	int/long
sint32	Uses variable-length encoding. Signed int value. These more efficiently encode negative numbers than regular int32s.	int32	int	int
sint64	Uses variable-length encoding. Signed int value. These more efficiently encode negative numbers than regular int64s.	int64	long	int/long
fixed32	Always four bytes. More efficient than uint32 if values are often greater than 2^28.	uint32	int	int
fixed64	Always eight bytes. More efficient than uint64 if values are often greater than 2^56.	uint64	long	int/long
sfixed32	Always four bytes.	int32	int	int
sfixed64	Always eight bytes.	int64	long	int/long
bool		bool	boolean	boolean
string	A string must always contain UTF-8 encoded or 7-bit ASCII text.	string	String	str/unicode
bytes	May contain any arbitrary sequence of bytes.	string	ByteString	str
