license build issues

This is a custom lightweight blockchain written in C# and tries to have as many solutions as possible, including NFT , Pools, Stakings, a document ledger and even private messaging! This blockchain uses P2P and a central server (recommended Firebase) to organize current and available IPs in the network.

Installation

There is a NuGet Package here to develop apps that use this blockchain solution. There is also a CLI tool that make your computer become a node and interacts with the main network. In the future there will be a Desktop App for creating and managing your wallet.

Usage

As a library in your project

After the NuGet Package has been added to your project, you can use it as following (C#)

using UniChain.Events;
using UniChain.Core;

int difficulty = 5;
float reward = 100;
Blockchain blockchain = new(difficulty, reward); 
User currentUser = new(); // will generate a random pair of keys
string receiver = new User().Address;

double fee = 5.2f;
ITransaction tx = new CurrencyTransaction(currentUser, fee, receiver, 15); // from, fee, to and amount
tx.SignTransaction(); // signs the transaction

blockchain.AddEvent(tx); // adds a event to the PendingEvents list
blockchain.MinePendingTransactions(currentUser.Address); // currentUser will receive the reward

Console.WriteLine(blockchain.GetBalance(currentUser.Address));
// balance = reward - (fee + 15)
// prints out: 79.8

Command Line Interface (CLI)

You can download the latest CLI executable version here. After you installed it, you can add the folder containing the .exe to your system PATH (if you don't know how read this).

Sample usage:

## Creating a new blockchain
unichain create -f ./unichain.json  ==> You can leave the '-f' flag to autogenerate the file!


unichain -h OR unichain --help OR unichain help  ==>  general help
unichain mine -h OR unichain --help  ==>  sub-command specific help

unichain print --base64  ==> Prints out the entire blockchain in Base-64 format
unichain print --dump  ==> Dumps all output text to a file

Desktop App

Currently, the desktop is WIP.
