example of using peers,
my understanding when reading the libo2p spec is that peerid can be used to manage users per nodes (each user has a key). How to create and add multiple peer ids / nodes? do you have any example for it?
https://docs.libp2p.io/concepts/peer-id/ https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/peer-ids/peer-ids.md
i may not understand what is a peer id in this case though. basically i would like to be able tro manage an object that has its own key pair that be be use to open private channels to exchanges messages between them.

basically a swarm is a peer.. Each swarm has it's own key pair and it's p2p address is /p2p/<b58pubkey>.
If you want to address "objects" in a swarm you use streams to address them inside that swarm. The dial function does that by taking a p2p address of a swarm and a "path" to the object (really a stream) you want to communicate with.
