blockchain-base

blockchain-base provides a customizable base for a blockchain implementation.

The purpose of this crate is to build your own Blockchain with as few dependencies as possible. This means that when possible, the library uses the standard Rust structures and functions.

It is in the process of being part of blockchain-satellite project for implementing an original idea of a blockchain over a Low-Orbit satellite. The idea is described on the paper:

Blockchain and radio communications over suborbital spaceflights: Watchtowers and Mystics

Usage

Add blockchain-base to your project's Cargo.toml. For more details, consult the Cargo guide.

Example:

extern crate blockchainblock;
use crate::blockchainblock::*;

let prev  : Option<BlockHash> = None;
let nonce : u64 = 3;
let timestamp : u64 = 4;
let data : [i32; 1] = [5];
let block : BlockchainBlock<i32> = BlockchainBlock::new(prev, &data, timestamp, nonce);
println!("\n{:?}\n", &block);

For more examples, consult the documentation.
