brontide ========== [![Build Status](http://img.shields.io/travis/lightningnetwork/lnd.svg)] (https://travis-ci.org/lightningnetwork/lnd) [![MIT licensed](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg)] (https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/LICENSE) [![GoDoc](https://img.shields.io/badge/godoc-reference-blue.svg)] (http://godoc.org/github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/brontide) The brontide package implements a secure crypto messaging protocol based off of the [Noise Protocol Framework](http://noiseprotocol.org/noise.html). The package exposes the raw state machine that handles the handshake and subsequent message encryption/decryption scheme. Additionally, the package exposes a [net.Conn](https://golang.org/pkg/net/#Conn) and a [net.Listener](https://golang.org/pkg/net/#Listener) interface implementation which allows the encrypted transport to be seamlessly integrated into a codebase. The secure messaging scheme implemented within this package is described in detail in [BOLT #8 of the Lightning Network specifications](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lightning-rfc/blob/master/08-transport.md). This package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing secure encrypted+authenticated communications between network enabled programs. ## Installation and Updating ```bash $ go get -u github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/brontide ```
