Example of protocols that ProtoDef could handle #6

I think it's interesting to list some protocols we want Protocols to be able to handle.

would be fun to look into LoL
minetest (also see client.cpp by ctrl+f "NetworkPacket pkt")
what other binary protocol would be interesting ?

Just some ideas of what binary protocols look like, of course we don't have to implement them !

roblabla commented 9 years ago

not a protocol, but binary file formats would be cool as well. My original use-case was the Java Class File Format

MCPE (see https://github.com/PrismarineJS/node-minecraft-protocol/issues/235) : stateless, directionless protocol. (directionless in the implementation but some packet are only clientBound and serverBound : not sure exactly how to represent that (currently done with a clientBound and a serverBound boolean for each packet))

minetest protocol is almost available in a structured form, see https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/src/network/networkprotocol.h

rom1504 commented 8 years ago

this is cool too https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/world_format.txt

Good reason to write a python protodef too. (And I've been thinking that writing protodef in other languages might give some optimization clues)

would be fun to implement protobuf with protodef https://github.com/mafintosh/protocol-buffers-schema
