This change introduces a major refactoring of the RPC service layer to improve modularity, unify the API, and simplify the overall architecture.
Key changes:
- Replaced per-network-instance RPC services with a single global RPC server, reducing resource usage and simplifying management.
- All clients (CLI, Web UI, etc.) now interact with EasyTier core through a unified RPC entrypoint, enabling consistent authentication and control.
- RPC implementation logic has been moved to `easytier/src/rpc_service/` and organized by functionality (e.g., `instance_manage.rs`, `peer_manage.rs`, `config.rs`) for better maintainability.
- Standardized Protobuf API definitions under `easytier/src/proto/` with an `api_` prefix (e.g., `cli.proto` → `api_instance.proto`) to provide a consistent interface.
- CLI commands now require explicit `--instance-id` or `--instance-name` when multiple network instances are running; the parameter is optional when only one instance exists.
BREAKING CHANGE:
RPC portal configuration (`rpc_portal` and `rpc_portal_whitelist`) has been removed from per-instance configs and the Web UI. The RPC listen address must now be specified globally via the `--rpc-portal` command-line flag or the `ET_RPC_PORTAL` environment variable, as there is only one RPC service for the entire application.
This patch implements:
1. A dns server that handles .et.net. zone in local and forward all other queries to system dns server.
2. A dns server instance which is a singleton in one machine, using one specific tcp port to be exclusive with each other. this instance is responsible for config system dns and run the dns server to handle dns queries.
3. A dns client instance that all easytier instance will run one, this instance will try to connect to dns server instance, and update the dns record in the dns server instance.
this pr only implements the system config for windows. linux & mac will do later.
Tested building natively on Windows ARM64, with Rust 1.82 and VS2022 toolchains.
Basic functionality of easytier-cli, easytier-core and easytier-web has been verified.
This patch implement a restful server without any auth.
usage:
```bash
# run easytier-web, which acts as an gateway and registry for all easytier-core
$> easytier-web
# run easytier-core and connect to easytier-web with a token
$> easytier-core --config-server udp://127.0.0.1:22020/fdsafdsa
# use restful api to list session
$> curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X GET 127.0.0.1:11211/api/v1/sessions
[{"token":"fdsafdsa","client_url":"udp://127.0.0.1:48915","machine_id":"de3f5b8f-0f2f-d9d0-fb30-a2ac8951d92f"}]%
# use restful api to run a network instance
$> curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST 127.0.0.1:11211/api/v1/network/de3f5b8f-0f2f-d9d0-fb30-a2ac8951d92f -d '{"config": "listeners = [\"udp://0.0.0.0:12344\"]"}'
# use restful api to get network instance info
$> curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X GET 127.0.0.1:11211/api/v1/network/de3f5b8f-0f2f-d9d0-fb30-a2ac8951d92f/65437e50-b286-4098-a624-74429f2cb839
```
* move rpc-build out of easytier dir and make it a independant project
* easytier core use launcher
* fix flags not print on launch
* allow launcher not fetch node info
* abstract out peer rpc impl
* fix arm gui ci. see https://github.com/actions/runner-images/pull/10807
* add easytier-web crate
* fix manual_connector test case
This patch removes Tarpc & Tonic GRPC and implements a customized rpc framework, which can be used by peer rpc and cli interface.
web config server can also use this rpc framework.
moreover, rewrite the public server logic, use ospf route to implement public server based networking. this make public server mesh possible.
