}

A downloader capable of fetching and yielding block headers.

A downloader represents a distinct strategy for submitting requests to download block headers, while a HeadersClient represents a client capable of fulfilling these requests.

A HeaderDownloader is a [Stream] that returns batches of headers.

Required Associated Types

type Header: Send + Sync + Unpin + 'static

The header type being downloaded.

Required Methods

fn update_local_head(&mut self, head: SealedHeader<Self::Header>)

Updates the block number of the local database

fn update_sync_target(&mut self, target: SyncTarget)

Updates the target we want to sync to

fn set_batch_size(&mut self, limit: usize)

Sets the headers batch size that the Stream should return.

Provided Methods

fn update_sync_gap( &mut self, head: SealedHeader<Self::Header>, target: SyncTarget, )

Updates the gap to sync which ranges from local head to the sync target
