MessageSystem Dependency

kade_drive relies on the MessageSystem package as a side dependency for communication between new nodes and the network. MessageSystem provides a messaging system using multicast and broadcast, allowing for efficient message exchange.

The MessageSystem package is a separate Python package that needs to be installed as a prerequisite for using kade_drive. It handles the low-level communication aspects required for the functioning of kade_drive.

To install MessageSystem, you can use pip. Run the following command in your terminal:

pip install message-system

Usage

Once MessageSystem is installed, you can use kade_drive as described in this doc. It will automatically utilize the MessageSystem package for autodiscovery.
