Types

type Block 

type Block struct {
	ParentID     BlockID         `json:"parentid"`
	Nonce        BlockNonce      `json:"nonce"`
	Timestamp    Timestamp       `json:"timestamp"`
	MinerPayouts []SiacoinOutput `json:"minerpayouts"`
	Transactions []Transaction   `json:"transactions"`
}

A Block is a summary of changes to the state that have occurred since the previous block. Blocks reference the ID of the previous block (their "parent"), creating the linked-list commonly known as the blockchain. Their primary function is to bundle together transactions on the network. Blocks are created by "miners," who collect transactions from other nodes, and then try to pick a Nonce that results in a block whose BlockID is below a given Target.

func (Block) CalculateSubsidy added in v0.3.3 

func (b Block) CalculateSubsidy(height BlockHeight) Currency

CalculateSubsidy takes a block and a height and determines the block subsidy.

func (Block) Header added in v0.3.3 

func (b Block) Header() BlockHeader

Header returns the header of a block.

func (Block) ID 

func (b Block) ID() BlockID

ID returns the ID of a Block, which is calculated by hashing the concatenation of the block's parent's ID, nonce, and the result of the b.MerkleRoot(). It is equivalent to calling block.Header().ID()

func (Block) MarshalSia added in v1.0.0 

func (b Block) MarshalSia(w io.Writer) error

MarshalSia implements the encoding.SiaMarshaler interface.

func (Block) MerkleRoot 

func (b Block) MerkleRoot() crypto.Hash

MerkleRoot calculates the Merkle root of a Block. The leaves of the Merkle tree are composed of the Timestamp, the miner outputs (one leaf per payout), and the transactions (one leaf per transaction).

func (Block) MinerPayoutID 

func (b Block) MinerPayoutID(i uint64) SiacoinOutputID

MinerPayoutID returns the ID of the miner payout at the given index, which is calculated by hashing the concatenation of the BlockID and the payout index.

func (*Block) UnmarshalSia added in v1.0.0 

func (b *Block) UnmarshalSia(r io.Reader) error

UnmarshalSia implements the encoding.SiaUnmarshaler interface.

type BlockHeader added in v0.3.3 

type BlockHeader struct {
	ParentID   BlockID     `json:"parentid"`
	Nonce      BlockNonce  `json:"nonce"`
	Timestamp  Timestamp   `json:"timestamp"`
	MerkleRoot crypto.Hash `json:"merkleroot"`
}

A BlockHeader, when encoded, is an 80-byte constant size field containing enough information to do headers-first block downloading. Hashing the header results in the block ID.

func (BlockHeader) ID added in v1.0.0 

func (h BlockHeader) ID() BlockID

ID returns the ID of a Block, which is calculated by hashing the header.

type CoveredFields 

type CoveredFields struct {
	WholeTransaction      bool     `json:"wholetransaction"`
	SiacoinInputs         []uint64 `json:"siacoininputs"`
	SiacoinOutputs        []uint64 `json:"siacoinoutputs"`
	FileContracts         []uint64 `json:"filecontracts"`
	FileContractRevisions []uint64 `json:"filecontractrevisions"`

	SiafundOutputs        []uint64 `json:"siafundoutputs"`
	MinerFees             []uint64 `json:"minerfees"`
	ArbitraryData         []uint64 `json:"arbitrarydata"`
	TransactionSignatures []uint64 `json:"transactionsignatures"`
}

CoveredFields indicates which fields in a transaction have been covered by the signature. (Note that the signature does not sign the fields themselves, but rather their combined hash; see SigHash.) Each slice corresponds to a slice in the Transaction type, indicating which indices of the slice have been signed. The indices must be valid, i.e. within the bounds of the slice. In addition, they must be sorted and unique.

As a convenience, a signature of the entire transaction can be indicated by the 'WholeTransaction' field. If 'WholeTransaction' == true, all other fields must be empty (except for the Signatures field, since a signature cannot sign itself).

type Currency 

type Currency struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A Currency represents a number of siacoins or siafunds. Internally, a Currency value is unbounded; however, Currency values sent over the wire protocol are subject to a maximum size of 255 bytes (approximately 10^614). Unlike the math/big library, whose methods modify their receiver, all arithmetic Currency methods return a new value. Currency cannot be negative.

func CalculateCoinbase 

func CalculateCoinbase(height BlockHeight) Currency

CalculateCoinbase calculates the coinbase for a given height. The coinbase equation is: 

coinbase := max(InitialCoinbase - height, MinimumCoinbase) * SiacoinPrecision

func CalculateNumSiacoins added in v1.0.0 

func CalculateNumSiacoins(height BlockHeight) Currency

CalculateNumSiacoins calculates the number of siacoins in circulation at a given height.

func NewCurrency 

func NewCurrency(b *big.Int) (c Currency)

NewCurrency creates a Currency value from a big.Int. Undefined behavior occurs if a negative input is used.

func NewCurrency64 

func NewCurrency64(x uint64) (c Currency)

NewCurrency64 creates a Currency value from a uint64.

func PostTax added in v1.0.0 

func PostTax(height BlockHeight, payout Currency) Currency

PostTax returns the amount of currency remaining in a file contract payout after tax.

func Tax added in v1.0.0 

func Tax(height BlockHeight, payout Currency) Currency

Tax returns the amount of Currency that will be taxed from fc.

func (Currency) Add 

func (x Currency) Add(y Currency) (c Currency)

Add returns a new Currency value c = x + y

func (Currency) Big 

func (c Currency) Big() *big.Int

Big returns the value of c as a *big.Int. Importantly, it does not provide access to the c's internal big.Int object, only a copy.

func (Currency) Cmp 

func (x Currency) Cmp(y Currency) int

Cmp compares two Currency values. The return value follows the convention of math/big.

func (Currency) Div 

func (x Currency) Div(y Currency) (c Currency)

Div returns a new Currency value c = x / y.

func (Currency) IsZero 

func (c Currency) IsZero() bool

IsZero returns true if the value is 0, false otherwise.

func (Currency) MarshalJSON 

func (c Currency) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

MarshalJSON implements the json.Marshaler interface.

func (Currency) MarshalSia 

func (c Currency) MarshalSia(w io.Writer) error

MarshalSia implements the encoding.SiaMarshaler interface. It writes the byte-slice representation of the Currency's internal big.Int to w. Note that as the bytes of the big.Int correspond to the absolute value of the integer, there is no way to marshal a negative Currency.

func (Currency) Mul 

func (x Currency) Mul(y Currency) (c Currency)

Mul returns a new Currency value c = x * y.

func (Currency) MulFloat 

func (x Currency) MulFloat(y float64) (c Currency)

COMPATv0.4.0 - until the first 10e3 blocks have been archived, MulFloat is needed while verifying the first set of blocks.

MulFloat returns a new Currency value y = c * x, where x is a float64. Behavior is undefined when x is negative.

func (Currency) MulRat added in v1.0.0 

func (x Currency) MulRat(y *big.Rat) (c Currency)

MulRat returns a new Currency value c = x * y, where y is a big.Rat.

func (Currency) MulTax added in v1.0.0 

func (x Currency) MulTax() (c Currency)

MulTax returns a new Currency value c = x * 0.039, where 0.039 is a big.Rat.

func (Currency) RoundDown 

func (x Currency) RoundDown(y Currency) (c Currency)

RoundDown returns the largest multiple of y <= x.

func (*Currency) Scan 

func (c *Currency) Scan(s fmt.ScanState, ch rune) error

Scan implements the fmt.Scanner interface, allowing Currency values to be scanned from text.

func (Currency) Sqrt 

func (x Currency) Sqrt() (c Currency)

Sqrt returns a new Currency value y = sqrt(c). Result is rounded down to the nearest integer.

func (Currency) String 

func (c Currency) String() string

String implements the fmt.Stringer interface.

func (Currency) Sub 

func (x Currency) Sub(y Currency) (c Currency)

Sub returns a new Currency value c = x - y. Behavior is undefined when x < y.

func (Currency) Uint64 added in v1.0.0 

func (c Currency) Uint64() (u uint64, err error)

Uint64 converts a Currency to a uint64. An error is returned because this function is sometimes called on values that can be determined by users - rather than have all user-facing points do input checking, the input checking should happen at the base type. This minimizes the chances of a rogue user causing a build.Critical to be triggered.

func (*Currency) UnmarshalJSON 

func (c *Currency) UnmarshalJSON(b []byte) error

UnmarshalJSON implements the json.Unmarshaler interface. An error is returned if a negative number is provided.

func (*Currency) UnmarshalSia 

func (c *Currency) UnmarshalSia(r io.Reader) error

UnmarshalSia implements the encoding.SiaUnmarshaler interface.

type FileContract 

type FileContract struct {
	FileSize           uint64          `json:"filesize"`
	FileMerkleRoot     crypto.Hash     `json:"filemerkleroot"`
	WindowStart        BlockHeight     `json:"windowstart"`
	WindowEnd          BlockHeight     `json:"windowend"`
	Payout             Currency        `json:"payout"`
	ValidProofOutputs  []SiacoinOutput `json:"validproofoutputs"`
	MissedProofOutputs []SiacoinOutput `json:"missedproofoutputs"`
	UnlockHash         UnlockHash      `json:"unlockhash"`
	RevisionNumber     uint64          `json:"revisionnumber"`
}

A FileContract is a public record of a storage agreement between a "host" and a "renter." It mandates that a host must submit a storage proof to the network, proving that they still possess the file they have agreed to store.

The party must submit the storage proof in a block that is between 'WindowStart' and 'WindowEnd'. Upon submitting the proof, the outputs for 'ValidProofOutputs' are created. If the party does not submit a storage proof by 'WindowEnd', then the outputs for 'MissedProofOutputs' are created instead. The sum of 'MissedProofOutputs' must equal 'Payout', and the sum of 'ValidProofOutputs' must equal 'Payout' plus the siafund fee. This fee is sent to the siafund pool, which is a set of siacoins only spendable by siafund owners.

Under normal circumstances, the payout will be funded by both the host and the renter, which gives the host incentive not to lose the file. The 'ValidProofUnlockHash' will typically be spendable by host, and the 'MissedProofUnlockHash' will either by spendable by the renter or by nobody (the ZeroUnlockHash).

A contract can be terminated early by submitting a FileContractTermination whose UnlockConditions hash to 'TerminationHash'.

type FileContractID 

type FileContractID crypto.Hash

func (FileContractID) MarshalJSON added in v1.0.0 

func (fcid FileContractID) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

MarshalJSON marshales an id as a hex string.

func (FileContractID) StorageProofOutputID 

func (fcid FileContractID) StorageProofOutputID(proofStatus ProofStatus, i uint64) SiacoinOutputID

StorageProofOutputID returns the ID of an output created by a file contract, given the status of the storage proof. The ID is calculating by hashing the concatenation of the StorageProofOutput Specifier, the ID of the file contract that the proof is for, a boolean indicating whether the proof was valid (true) or missed (false), and the index of the output within the file contract.

func (FileContractID) String added in v1.0.0 

func (fcid FileContractID) String() string

String prints the id in hex.

func (*FileContractID) UnmarshalJSON added in v1.0.0 

func (fcid *FileContractID) UnmarshalJSON(b []byte) error

UnmarshalJSON decodes the json hex string of the id.

type FileContractRevision 

type FileContractRevision struct {
	ParentID          FileContractID   `json:"parentid"`
	UnlockConditions  UnlockConditions `json:"unlockconditions"`
	NewRevisionNumber uint64           `json:"newrevisionnumber"`

	NewFileSize           uint64          `json:"newfilesize"`
	NewFileMerkleRoot     crypto.Hash     `json:"newfilemerkleroot"`
	NewWindowStart        BlockHeight     `json:"newwindowstart"`
	NewWindowEnd          BlockHeight     `json:"newwindowend"`
	NewValidProofOutputs  []SiacoinOutput `json:"newvalidproofoutputs"`
	NewMissedProofOutputs []SiacoinOutput `json:"newmissedproofoutputs"`
	NewUnlockHash         UnlockHash      `json:"newunlockhash"`
}

A FileContractRevision revises an existing file contract. The ParentID points to the file contract that is being revised. The UnlockConditions are the conditions under which the revision is valid, and must match the UnlockHash of the parent file contract. The Payout of the file contract cannot be changed, but all other fields are allowed to be changed. The sum of the outputs must match the original payout (taking into account the fee for valid proof payouts.) A revision number is included. When getting accepted, the revision number of the revision must be higher than any previously seen revision number for that file contract.

FileContractRevisions enable trust-free modifications to existing file contracts.

	ProofValid  ProofStatus = true
	ProofMissed ProofStatus = false
)

type SiaPublicKey 

type SiaPublicKey struct {
	Algorithm Specifier `json:"algorithm"`
	Key       []byte    `json:"key"`
}

A SiaPublicKey is a public key prefixed by a Specifier. The Specifier indicates the algorithm used for signing and verification. Unrecognized algorithms will always verify, which allows new algorithms to be added to the protocol via a soft-fork.

type SiacoinInput 

type SiacoinInput struct {
	ParentID         SiacoinOutputID  `json:"parentid"`
	UnlockConditions UnlockConditions `json:"unlockconditions"`
}

A SiacoinInput consumes a SiacoinOutput and adds the siacoins to the set of siacoins that can be spent in the transaction. The ParentID points to the output that is getting consumed, and the UnlockConditions contain the rules for spending the output. The UnlockConditions must match the UnlockHash of the output.

type SiacoinOutput 

type SiacoinOutput struct {
	Value      Currency   `json:"value"`
	UnlockHash UnlockHash `json:"unlockhash"`
}

A SiacoinOutput holds a volume of siacoins. Outputs must be spent atomically; that is, they must all be spent in the same transaction. The UnlockHash is the hash of the UnlockConditions that must be fulfilled in order to spend the output.

type SiacoinOutputID 

type SiacoinOutputID crypto.Hash

func (SiacoinOutputID) MarshalJSON added in v1.0.0 

func (scoid SiacoinOutputID) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

type SiafundInput 

type SiafundInput struct {
	ParentID         SiafundOutputID  `json:"parentid"`
	UnlockConditions UnlockConditions `json:"unlockconditions"`
	ClaimUnlockHash  UnlockHash       `json:"claimunlockhash"`
}

A SiafundInput consumes a SiafundOutput and adds the siafunds to the set of siafunds that can be spent in the transaction. The ParentID points to the output that is getting consumed, and the UnlockConditions contain the rules for spending the output. The UnlockConditions must match the UnlockHash of the output.

type SiafundOutput 

type SiafundOutput struct {
	Value      Currency   `json:"value"`
	UnlockHash UnlockHash `json:"unlockhash"`
	ClaimStart Currency   `json:"claimstart"`
}

A SiafundOutput holds a volume of siafunds. Outputs must be spent atomically; that is, they must all be spent in the same transaction. The UnlockHash is the hash of a set of UnlockConditions that must be fulfilled in order to spend the output.

When the SiafundOutput is spent, a SiacoinOutput is created, where: 

SiacoinOutput.Value := (SiafundPool - ClaimStart) / 10,000
SiacoinOutput.UnlockHash := SiafundOutput.ClaimUnlockHash

When a SiafundOutput is put into a transaction, the ClaimStart must always equal zero. While the transaction is being processed, the ClaimStart is set to the value of the SiafundPool.

type SiafundOutputID 

type SiafundOutputID crypto.Hash

func (SiafundOutputID) MarshalJSON added in v1.0.0 

func (sfoid SiafundOutputID) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

MarshalJSON marshales an id as a hex string.

func (SiafundOutputID) SiaClaimOutputID 

func (id SiafundOutputID) SiaClaimOutputID() SiacoinOutputID

SiaClaimOutputID returns the ID of the SiacoinOutput that is created when the siafund output is spent. The ID is the hash the SiafundOutputID.

func (SiafundOutputID) String added in v1.0.0

String prints the id in hex.

func (*SiafundOutputID) UnmarshalJSON added in v1.0.0 

func (sfoid *SiafundOutputID) UnmarshalJSON(b []byte) error

UnmarshalJSON decodes the json hex string of the id.

type Specifier 

type Specifier [SpecifierLen]byte

A Specifier is a fixed-length byte-array that serves two purposes. In the wire protocol, they are used to identify a particular encoding algorithm, signature algorithm, etc. This allows nodes to communicate on their own terms; for example, to reduce bandwidth costs, a node might only accept compressed messages.

Internally, Specifiers are used to guarantee unique IDs. Various consensus types have an associated ID, calculated by hashing the data contained in the type. By prepending the data with Specifier, we can guarantee that distinct types will never produce the same hash.

func (Specifier) MarshalJSON added in v1.0.0 

func (s Specifier) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

MarshalJSON marshales a specifier as a hex string.

func (Specifier) String added in v1.0.0

type StdClock added in v1.0.0 

type StdClock struct{}

StdClock is an implementation of Clock that retrieves the current time using the system time.

func (StdClock) Now added in v1.0.0 

func (c StdClock) Now() Timestamp

type StorageProof 

type StorageProof struct {
	ParentID FileContractID           `json:"parentid"`
	Segment  [crypto.SegmentSize]byte `json:"segment"`
	HashSet  []crypto.Hash            `json:"hashset"`
}

A StorageProof fulfills a FileContract. The proof contains a specific segment of the file, along with a set of hashes from the file's Merkle tree. In combination, these can be used to prove that the segment came from the file. To prevent abuse, the segment must be chosen randomly, so the ID of block 'WindowStart' - 1 is used as a seed value; see StorageProofSegment for the exact implementation.

A transaction with a StorageProof cannot have any SiacoinOutputs, SiafundOutputs, or FileContracts. This is because a mundane reorg can invalidate the proof, and with it the rest of the transaction.

type Target 

type Target crypto.Hash

A Target is a hash that a block's ID must be "less than" in order for the block to be considered valid. Miners vary the block's 'Nonce' field in order to brute-force such an ID. The inverse of a Target is called the "difficulty," because it is proportional to the amount of time required to brute-force the Target.

	TransactionSignatures []TransactionSignature `json:"transactionsignatures"`
}

A Transaction is an atomic component of a block. Transactions can contain inputs and outputs, file contracts, storage proofs, and even arbitrary data. They can also contain signatures to prove that a given party has approved the transaction, or at least a particular subset of it.

Transactions can depend on other previous transactions in the same block, but transactions cannot spend outputs that they create or otherwise be self-dependent.

func (Transaction) FileContractID 

func (t Transaction) FileContractID(i uint64) FileContractID

FileContractID returns the ID of a file contract at the given index, which is calculated by hashing the concatenation of the FileContract Specifier, all of the fields in the transaction (except the signatures), and the contract index.

func (Transaction) ID 

func (t Transaction) ID() TransactionID

ID returns the id of a transaction, which is taken by marshalling all of the fields except for the signatures and taking the hash of the result.

func (Transaction) SiacoinOutputID 

func (t Transaction) SiacoinOutputID(i uint64) SiacoinOutputID

SiacoinOutputID returns the ID of a siacoin output at the given index, which is calculated by hashing the concatenation of the SiacoinOutput Specifier, all of the fields in the transaction (except the signatures), and output index.

func (Transaction) SiacoinOutputSum 

func (t Transaction) SiacoinOutputSum() (sum Currency)

SiacoinOutputSum returns the sum of all the siacoin outputs in the transaction, which must match the sum of all the siacoin inputs. Siacoin outputs created by storage proofs and siafund outputs are not considered, as they were considered when the contract responsible for funding them was created.

func (Transaction) SiafundOutputID 

func (t Transaction) SiafundOutputID(i uint64) SiafundOutputID

SiafundOutputID returns the ID of a SiafundOutput at the given index, which is calculated by hashing the concatenation of the SiafundOutput Specifier, all of the fields in the transaction (except the signatures), and output index.

type TransactionID added in v1.0.0 

type TransactionID crypto.Hash

IDs are used to refer to a type without revealing its contents. They are constructed by hashing specific fields of the type, along with a Specifier. While all of these types are hashes, defining type aliases gives us type safety and makes the code more readable.

type TransactionSignature 

type TransactionSignature struct {
	ParentID       crypto.Hash   `json:"parentid"`
	PublicKeyIndex uint64        `json:"publickeyindex"`
	Timelock       BlockHeight   `json:"timelock"`
	CoveredFields  CoveredFields `json:"coveredfields"`
	Signature      []byte        `json:"signature"`
}

A TransactionSignature is a signature that is included in the transaction. The signature should correspond to a public key in one of the UnlockConditions of the transaction. This key is specified first by 'ParentID', which specifies the UnlockConditions, and then 'PublicKeyIndex', which indicates the key in the UnlockConditions. There are three types that use UnlockConditions: SiacoinInputs, SiafundInputs, and FileContractTerminations. Each of these types also references a ParentID, and this is the hash that 'ParentID' must match. The 'Timelock' prevents the signature from being used until a certain height. 'CoveredFields' indicates which parts of the transaction are being signed; see CoveredFields.

type UnlockConditions 

type UnlockConditions struct {
	Timelock           BlockHeight    `json:"timelock"`
	PublicKeys         []SiaPublicKey `json:"publickeys"`
	SignaturesRequired uint64         `json:"signaturesrequired"`
}

UnlockConditions are a set of conditions which must be met to execute certain actions, such as spending a SiacoinOutput or terminating a FileContract.

The simplest requirement is that the block containing the UnlockConditions must have a height >= 'Timelock'.

'PublicKeys' specifies the set of keys that can be used to satisfy the UnlockConditions; of these, at least 'SignaturesRequired' unique keys must sign the transaction. The keys that do not need to use the same cryptographic algorithm.

If 'SignaturesRequired' == 0, the UnlockConditions are effectively "anyone can unlock." If 'SignaturesRequired' > len('PublicKeys'), then the UnlockConditions cannot be fulfilled under any circumstances.

func (UnlockConditions) UnlockHash 

func (uc UnlockConditions) UnlockHash() UnlockHash

UnlockHash calculates the root hash of a Merkle tree of the UnlockConditions object. The leaves of this tree are formed by taking the hash of the timelock, the hash of the public keys (one leaf each), and the hash of the number of signatures. The keys are put in the middle because Timelock and SignaturesRequired are both low entropy fields; they can be protected by having random public keys next to them.

type UnlockHash 

type UnlockHash crypto.Hash

An UnlockHash is a specially constructed hash of the UnlockConditions type. "Locked" values can be unlocked by providing the UnlockConditions that hash to a given UnlockHash. See SpendConditions.UnlockHash for details on how the UnlockHash is constructed.
