Question about implementing custom PubSubRouter

[opaolini]

Greetings!

I am currently implementing a custom Router outside of context of pubsub package that uses some types outside of the scope of pubsub.

The last thing I am missing is grabbing the message channel for a particular peer. In floodsub and gossipsub it's done like so:

	mch, ok := gs.p.peers[p]
	if !ok {
		return
	}

The problem in my custom one is that *PubSub's field peers is unexported and I am unable to do so.

Is it currently possible for me to implement a custom Publish outside of the scope of this package (and not trying to use reflect or anything)?

Thanks!

It is a little more complicated than that, but we are aware that there is a need to implement routers outside the library.
We will work to address the issue in the not-so-distant future.

@vyzo could you elaborate a little more on the work required to allow for this? I'd love to see external routers written, and i'm sure people wanting to write them would be happy to help make it possible

#199 performs the necessary refactoring; it should be sufficient to implement out of tree routers.
