-//! The server sends a compressed response containing differential gossip data. The gossip data is
-//! formatted compactly, omitting signatures and opportunistically incremental where previous

+//! The rapid gossip sync server will provide a compressed response containing differential gossip
+//! data. The gossip data is formatted compactly, omitting signatures and opportunistically
+//! incremental where previous channel updates are known. This mechanism is enabled when the
+//! timestamp of the last known channel update is communicated. A reference server implementation
+//! can be found [on Github](https://github.com/lightningdevkit/rapid-gossip-sync-server).
//!
-//! An example server request could look as simple as the following. Note that the first ever rapid
-//! sync should use `0` for `last_sync_timestamp`:
+//! The primary benefit of this syncing mechanism is that it allows a low-powered client to offload
+//! the validation of gossip signatures to a semi-trusted server. This enables the client to
+//! privately calculate routes for payments, and to do so much faster than requiring a full
+//! peer-to-peer gossip sync to complete.
+//!
+//! The server calculates its response on the basis of a client-provided `latest_seen` timestamp,
+//! i.e., the server will return all rapid gossip sync data it has seen after the given timestamp.
+//!
+//! # Getting Started
+//! Firstly, the data needs to be retrieved from the server. For example, you could use the server
+//! at <https://rapidsync.lightningdevkit.org> with the following request format:
//!
//! ```shell
//! curl -o rapid_sync.lngossip https://rapidsync.lightningdevkit.org/snapshot/<last_sync_timestamp>
//! ```
+//! Note that the first ever rapid sync should use `0` for `last_sync_timestamp`.
//!
-//! Then, call the network processing function. In this example, we process the update by reading
-//! its contents from disk, which we do by calling the `sync_network_graph_with_file_path` method:
+//! After the gossip data snapshot has been downloaded, one of the client's graph processing
+//! functions needs to be called. In this example, we process the update by reading its contents
+//! from disk, which we do by calling [`RapidGossipSync::update_network_graph`]:
//!
//! ```
//! use bitcoin::blockdata::constants::genesis_block;
//! let block_hash = genesis_block(Network::Bitcoin).header.block_hash();
//! let network_graph = NetworkGraph::new(block_hash, &logger);
//! let rapid_sync = RapidGossipSync::new(&network_graph);
-//! let new_last_sync_timestamp_result = rapid_sync.sync_network_graph_with_file_path("./rapid_sync.lngossip");
+//! let snapshot_contents: &[u8] = &[0; 0];
+//! let new_last_sync_timestamp_result = rapid_sync.update_network_graph(snapshot_contents);
//! ```
-//!
-//! The primary benefit this syncing mechanism provides is that given a trusted server, a
-//! low-powered client can offload the validation of gossip signatures. This enables a client to
-//! privately calculate routes for payments, and do so much faster and earlier than requiring a full
-//! peer-to-peer gossip sync to complete.
-//!
-//! The reason the rapid sync server requires trust is that it could provide bogus data, though at
-//! worst, all that would result in is a fake network topology, which wouldn't enable the server to
-//! steal or siphon off funds. It could, however, reduce the client's privacy by forcing all
-//! payments to be routed via channels the server controls.
-//!
-//! The way a server is meant to calculate this rapid gossip sync data is by using a `latest_seen`
-//! timestamp provided by the client. It's not included in either channel announcement or update,
-//! (not least due to announcements not including any timestamps at all, but only a block height)
-//! but rather, it's a timestamp of when the server saw a particular message.
