#### Wire.sendHandshake()
The first step in starting a channel with another peer
#### Wire.sendInterested()
This will request unchoking the connection
#### Wire.sendNotInterested()
If the peer does not have data we need
#### Wire.sendHave(index: number) index
* the block in question [e.g. 0, 1, 2, 3, ...]
* Send peers that you have a new piece in your bitfield
#### Wire.sendBitfield(bitfield: string) bitfield
* string representing a hex bitfield [e.g. "f8"] [binary: 1111 1000]
* Send peer your current downloaded bitfield
#### Wire.sendRequest(payload: Buffer, count: number) payload
* wrap the index, begin, and length all into one buffercount
* number of pieces you are requesting [e.g. 0, 1, 2, 3, ...]
* Send a request for either a piece or block. Payload allows for multiple requests
#### Wire.sendPiece(piece: Buffer) piece
* wrap the index, begin, and length all into one buffer
* Given a request, this is how you respond
#### Wire.sendCancel(index: number, begin: number, length: number) index
* index of the block [e.g. 0, 1, 2, 3, ...]begin
number inside the block [e.g. 0 16384, 1 16384, 2 16384, ...]
* length: length (always 16384 unless last piece)
* Canceling a download with the peer
#### Wire.sendPort(port: number) port
* number of the UDP port the DHT is listening on
* send peer your KPRC protocol UDP port
#### Wire.sendMetaHandshake()
if "metadata_handshake"* options are set, this will send your options specified, otherwise the defaults are:
* ut_metadata 2ut_pex
* 1
#### Wire.createExtensions(metadataSize: number, torrentInfo: Info)
* this.createUTmetadata(metadataSize, torrentInfo)this.createUTpex()
*
#### Wire.createUTmetadata(metadataSize: number, torrentInfo: Info)
* this.ext[UT_METADATA] = new UTmetadata(metadataSize, this.infoHash, torrentInfo)
#### Wire.createUTpex()
* this.ext[UT_PEX] = new UTpex()
#### Wire.prototype.sendPexPeers (addPeers: Array
* addPeers ipv4 peers that you know are goodaddPeers6
* ipv6 peers that you know are gooddropPeers
* ipv4 peers that you know are baddropPeers6
* ipv6 peers that you know are bad
#### Wire.isChoked(): Boolean
* return this.choked
#### Wire.isBusy(): Boolean
* return this.busy
#### Wire.setBusy()
* this.busy = true
#### Wire.unsetBusy()
* this.busy = false
#### Wire.closeConnection()
* this.isActive = falsethis.emit("close")
*
#### Wire.removeMeta()
* this.meta = falsedelete this.ext[ UT_METADATA ]
*
#### Wire.removePex()
* delete this.ext[ UT_PEX ]
