Functions

func Score

func Score(msg []byte) uint64

Score returns the PoW score of msg.

Types

type Worker

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

The Worker performs the PoW.

func New

func New(numWorkers ...int) *Worker

New creates a new PoW Worker. The optional numWorkers specifies how many go routines should be used to perform the PoW.

func (*Worker) Mine

func (w *Worker) Mine(ctx context.Context, data []byte, targetScore uint64) (uint64, error)

Mine performs the PoW for data. It returns a nonce that appended to data results in a PoW score of at least targetScore. The computation can be canceled anytime using ctx.
