Hi there!
Thank you for dropping by. BigchainDB is open source project that has many moving parts. We try to allocate time to each issue and feature request but sometimes we run out of time or the problem is out of our maintainers expertise reach. To combat this problem we add bounties to issues / features. this is our way of saying Thanks for your contribution to our cause.
We will try to help you help us getting this issue closed. But, if for some reason you would not be able to work on this bounty, please see our Gitcoin profile for our other open bounties. We would also encourage you to watch this repo as we are planning more upcoming bounties and we would love to have your contributions.
How can you help?
We are looking for some help to update and maintain java driver for bigchaindb. We already have community supported java driver - https://github.com/authenteq/java-bigchaindb-driver, but after version upgrade for "1.x" to "2.0", there are breaking changes and it needs to be updated. Also, we would like to add support for Android so that even android app developers can take advantages of bigchaindb. There is already a reference repo by Gerardo for android bigchaindb driver - https://github.com/GerardoGa/bigchaindb-android, but we are looking for maintaining a single repo for java and android.
What needs to be done?
- Upgrade java driver to support version 2.0 of bigchainDB. This spec - https://github.com/bigchaindb/BEPs/blob/master/13/README.md#changes-between-version-1-and-2-of-this-spec explains changes in version 2.0
- Add android support.
- Improve code coverage to >95%.
We are very happy when -
When all below changes is merged with master branch -
- Java driver is compatible with version 2.0 of bigchaindb with changes implemented according to this spec
- Java driver is now compatible Android and supports android devices with version >= 6.0.
- Code coverage is improved to >95%
