A set of tools for handling functions related to the NANO cryptocurrency protocol.
- Solve and verify proof-of-work
- Create and deserialize legacy and universal blocks
- Account generation from seed using the same algorithm as the original NANO wallet and NanoVault
- Functions for converting between different NANO denominations
- High performance cryptographic operations using C extensions (signing and verifying blocks, and generating block proof-of-work)
- Proof-of-work generation supports SSE2, SSSE3, SSE4.1, AVX and NEON instruction sets for improved performance. The best supported implementation is selected at runtime with a fallback implementation with universal compatibility.
- Backed by automated tests
- Compatible with Python 3.6 and up
- Licensed under the very permissive Creative Commons Zero license
You can install the library using pip:
pip install nanolib
nanolib requires a working build environment for the C extensions. For example, on Debian-based distros you can install the required Python header files and a C compiler using the following command:
apt install build-essential python3-dev
An online copy of the documentation can be found at Read the Docs.
You can also build the documentation yourself by running python setup.py build_sphinx.
The setup.py script comes with a few additional commands besides installation:
build_sphinx- Build the documentation in
build/sphinx/html.
- Build the documentation in
test- Run tests using pytest
speed- Run a benchmark testing the performance of various cryptographic operations used in the library.
