lockchain-core 0.9.0

//! Common vault traits for plugin-crates
//!
//! The core of this crate has no functionality and is dependant
//! on other libraries to fill those holes. To make this easer
//! (and sometimes possible), we defined a few common behaviours
//! in traits to expand on in implementations specific to the
//! library.
//!
//! Each trait is documented in more detail and provides default
//! implementations with `unimplemented!` macros to make
//! compilation work without external crates but not calling
//! functions at runtime.
