#Block Chain Dev

Models

Block

  1. index
  2. hash
  3. prev hash
  4. timeStamp
  5. ledger

Hasher

hashes the block

Factory

generates new block- takes in previous block, builds last and current hash, passes them in to new Block()

isValidBlock

checks the index of the most recent block, the hash of the previous block against the stored hash of the previous block, and rehashes the newest block and ensures it matches the stored hash. Also checks that newest block contains all required properties.

Chain

  1. Root

Pusher

pushes the entire chain to temp storage in everyones server for length comparisons

isValidChain

checks the geneseis block, calls the isValidBlock function on all the other blocks

WebSockets

Stores an array of all met servers

Stable chain

the most current longest chain that has been approved by the collection of servers. All new blocks are built onto this.

Competing Chains

chains that are competing for longest chain get stored here and compared with each other. Once a majority of servers accept one chain as both the first and the longest chain, that chain becomes the Stable Chains

Routes

  1. made to socket list

GET CHAIN

whenever a server connects- it requests the longest chain

POST CHAIN

when a server generates a new block- it sends it to the other servers

GET SOCKETS

copies another peers sockets

POST SOCKETS

adds sockets to peers

DELETE SOCKETS

adds sockets to peers

Routes
