"""This module implements the TCP replication protocol used by synapse to
communicate between the master process and its workers (when they're enabled).
Further details can be found in docs/tcp_replication.md
Structure of the module:
* handler.py - the classes used to handle sending/receiving commands to
replication
* command.py - the definitions of all the valid commands
* protocol.py - the TCP protocol classes
* resource.py - handles streaming stream updates to replications
* streams/ - the definitions of all the valid streams
The general interaction of the classes are:
+---------------------+
| ReplicationStreamer |
+---------------------+
|
v
+---------------------------+ +----------------------+
| ReplicationCommandHandler |---->|ReplicationDataHandler|
+---------------------------+ +----------------------+
| ^
v |
+-------------+
| Protocols |
| (TCP/redis) |
+-------------+
Where the ReplicationDataHandler (or subclasses) handles incoming stream
updates.
