Nano-rs is a pure Rust implementation of the Nano cryptocurrency based on Tokio. It is currently in its very infancy.

This repo serves as a monorepo that contains several crates, including the root nano-rs crate, which is the node implementation itself. There are also several subcrates:

• nanopow-rs is a standalone Proof of Work implementation.
• nano-lib-rs provides types and functions for working with the Nano protocol in Rust.

• A basic node that can validate and store blocks sent to it
  • Data structures
    • Blocks
    • Message headers
    • Message body
      • Block
      • Keepalive peers
      • Confirm Ack (votes etc)
      • Others...
  • Database
  • Proof of work
  • Cryptographic functions
  • Basic wallet functions
  • Networking
    • Receiving keepalives and blocks
      • keepalives
      • publish
      • confirm_req
      • confirm_ack
      • others...
    • Sending keepalives
• Add broadcasting and discovery
• Add RPC interface
• Add voting
• Add compatibility with existing Nano Nodes
• Add complete testing harness
• Possibly more things in the future

First, install Rust.

Then make sure you're running nightly rust:

rustup toolchain install nightly
rustup default nightly

Then,

git clone https://github.com/termhn/nano-rs
cd nano-rs
cargo run --release

Logging is printed to stderr and saved in files in the logs/ folder.
