const msgType = 1; // can be any positive number
const address = '127.0.0.1';
const port = 12345;

  
// peer 1
const anternet1 = new Anternet();
anternet1.bind(port);

anternet1.on(msgType, (rid, args, rinfo) => {
  anternet1.response(rid, args.reverse(), rinfo.port, rinfo.address);
});

// peer 2
const anternet2 = new Anternet();
anternet2.request(msgType, ['foo', 'bar'], port, address, (err, args, rinfo) => {
  console.log(args); // [ "bar", "foo" ]
});
