Python: Peer can not listen for connection in P2P implementation network












1















I am newbie in Python. I tried to implement p2p network. My purpose is: create peers, connect peers, add new peers... which ensures the eventual consistency. I downloaded a P2P framework on http://cs.berry.edu/~nhamid/p2p/framework-python.html website and try to write the main method for it. However, when I compile the code, it failed to connect. Can anyone help me to fix it? Thanks adv



main.py



import threading
import btpeer

def test():
print("Test received!")
#end def

class peer(btpeer.BTPeer):
def __init__(self, maxpeers, serverport):
btpeer.BTPeer.__init__(self, maxpeers, serverport)
#end def

serverport=5321
me=peer(5, serverport)
me.debug=1
me.handlers={"test":test}
name=raw_input("Enter your name: ")
me.setmyid(name)
print("Your peer is already created with host is "+str(me.serverhost))
option=raw_input("Press 1 to add new peer: ")
if option=='1':
peer_name=raw_input("Enter name of new peer: ")
peer_ip=raw_input("Enter the IP of new peer: ")
peer_port=raw_input("Enter the port of new peer: ")
me.addpeer(peer_name, peer_ip, peer_port)
print("connecting to "+peer_name+"...")
me.mainloop()

      I am newbie in Python. I tried to implement p2p network. My purpose is: create peers, connect peers, add new peers... which ensures the eventual consistency. I downloaded a P2P framework on http://cs.berry.edu/~nhamid/p2p/framework-python.html website and try to write the main method for it. However, when I compile the code, it failed to connect. Can anyone help me to fix it? Thanks adv

      me.setmyid(name)

      option=raw_input("Press 1 to add new peer: ")
      if option=='1':
      peer_name=raw_input("Enter name of new peer: ")
      peer_ip=raw_input("Enter the IP of new peer: ")
      peer_port=raw_input("Enter the port of new peer: ")

      I am newbie in Python. I tried to implement p2p network. My purpose is: create peers, connect peers, add new peers... which ensures the eventual consistency. I downloaded a P2P framework on http://cs.berry.edu/~nhamid/p2p/framework-python.html website and try to write the main method for it. However, when I compile the code, it failed to connect. Can anyone help me to fix it? Thanks adv

      peer_ip=raw_input("Enter the IP of new peer: ")
