* Package name : magic-wormhole-mailbox-server Version : 0.3.1 Upstream Author : Brian Warner * URL : https://github.com/warner/magic-wormhole-mailbox-server * License : MIT Programming Lang: Python Description : Magic Wormhole Mailbox Server This is the main server that Magic-Wormhole clients connect to. The server performs store-and-forward delivery for small key-exchange and control messages. Bulk data is sent over a direct TCP connection, or through a transit-relay. Clients connect with WebSockets, for low-latency delivery in the happy case where both clients are attached at the same time. Message are stored to enable non-simultaneous clients to make forward progress. The server uses a small SQLite database for persistence (and clients will reconnect automatically, allowing the server to be rebooted without losing state). An optional "usage DB" tracks historical activity for status monitoring and operational maintenance. == This is necessary for magic-wormhole 0.11.2 tests to pass as they include code from this package, which is now split out in a different upstream repository. It can also be useful for people who want to run their own custom wormhole-based system without using any of the global wormhole architecture.
