progress.pqnet.messages

This module contains the messages that are used at the NET level for module-to-module communication and for controller-device communication.

class progress.pqnet.messages.InterModuleMessage(sender_device, sender_id, destination_device, destination_id, inner_message, topology_id=0)[source]

Bases: Message

A message that is used to communicate between modules.

property destination_device

The id of the device that the message is intended for.

Returns:

int

property destination_id

The id of the module that the message is intended for.

Returns:

int

property inner_message

The message that is being sent.

Returns:

netsquid.components.Message

property sender_device

The id of device that sent the message.

Returns:

int

property sender_id

The id of the module that sent the message.

Returns:

int

property topology_id

The current topology id of the network. If it does not match the current topology id of the device, the message is discarded. This is used to prevent messages from being sent to device that are not yet up to date with the current topology (they must receive a new DAG).

Returns:

int

class progress.pqnet.messages.ReplaceDAGMessage(destination_device, dag_factory, topology_id=0)[source]

Bases: Message

A message used by the controller to update the DAG of a device

property dag_factory

The DAG factory that is used to create the new DAG.

Returns:

DAGFactory

property destination_device

The id of the device that the message is intended for.

Returns:

int

property topology_id

The new topology id of the network.

Returns:

int
