Crate transparentlog_core 

Transparent Log

This crate provides an implementation of a Merkle tree for log records, for sceptical clients.

See https://research.swtch.com/tlog

Examples

use transparentlog_core::{check_record,InMemoryLog,InMemoryLogClientBuilder,TransparentLog};
 
// Create a new log
let mut ml: InMemoryLog<String>=InMemoryLog::default();
// Create a new client
let mut client= InMemoryLogClientBuilder::new(&ml)?.build();
// Append a record to the log
let rec1 = ml.append(String::from("entry1"))?;
// Check the log contains the record
assert_eq!(true, check_record(&mut client,&ml,&rec1)?);
// Get back the data
assert_eq!("entry1",ml.get(rec1.id)?.unwrap().as_str());

tree_sizes

Return the level sizes for each level of the tree

verify

Verify that a given record belongs to the given tree, using the proofs provided

verify_tree

Verify that the tree is correct with the proofs provided

Type Aliases
