## Solana Geyser gRPC Multiplexing and Reconnect
This project provides multiplexing of multiple [Yellowstone gRPC](https://github.com/rpcpool/yellowstone-grpc) subscriptions based on _Fastest Wins Strategy_.
* Multiple _Futures_ get **merged** where the first next block that arrives will be emitted.
* No __guarantees__ are made about if the messages are continuous or not.
* __Reconnects__ are handled transparently inside the _Futures_.
Disclaimer: The library is designed with the needs of
[LiteRPC](https://github.com/blockworks-foundation/lite-rpc) in mind
yet might be useful for other projects as well.
The implementation is based on _Rust Futures_.
Please open an issue if you have any questions or suggestions -> [New Issue](https://github.com/blockworks-foundation/geyser-grpc-connector/issues/new).
## Installation and Usage
```cargo add geyser-grpc-connector ```
An example how to use the library is provided in `stream_blocks_mainnet.rs`.
## Known issues
* Library does not support other data than Blocks/Slots very well.
* Should not be used with commitment level __PROCESSED__ because slot numbers are not monotoic.
* Library needs messages to be in order and provide slot information to work properly.
