A fishing rod for measuring TCP/UDP network performance.

castline's Issues

Tracking issue for `castline trap`

Tracking issue for trap subcommand.

Move `Protocol` enum to `tacklebox`

To identify which protocol we want to use (TCP/UDP), we currently derive the structopt trait for the protocol enum. This enum is currently defined in the catch module; but it would be more suited to in the tacklebox module so that other API's may make use of it.

Tracking issue for `castline fish`

General tracking issue for the fish subcommand.

Create verbose output

Tracking issue for creating verbose output mode, Iff a command has a verbose option.

• catch
• cast
• fish

Tracking issue for `castline cast`

Tracking issue for cast subcommand.

• Add support for printing TCP/UDP packet responses to the console. What information should be included?
  • header info: src, dst, len, chksum
  • raw data
  • time spent waiting for response
  • amount of bytes read when reading response
• Add mechanism to stop printing response to console when when either N timeouts occur or N packets have been collected.

Tracking issue for `castline catch`

Tracking issue for catch subcommand.

• Get amount of bytes read for TCP streams
• Change TCP output to include time spent waiting to connect; and max, min, avg time spent waiting for datagrams
• Make output "pretty"

Fix error propagation throughout codebase

As it currently stands, there are a crap ton of unwrap()s all over the place. This might be okay initially, but as the code base grows it makes tracking errors harder. Errors should be propagated up from where they occur and include specific information about the error that occurred.

Meta-information of port usage

castline fish will be used to gather meta-information about a port's usage. Information such as: process that last used the port, how many bytes were written to it, timing information, src/dest information, etc.

Add packet sending abilities

Tracking issue for giving users the ability to send packets to remote hosts. Will be implemented via
castline cast.
