Random beacon simulator

Build

docker pull dfinity/build-env

git clone git@github.com:timohanke/rb.git

cd rb

docker run --rm -it -v `pwd`/go:/go dfinity/build-env go run main.go

Run all linters:

docker run --rm -it -v `pwd`/go:/go dfinity/build-env gometalinter ./...

As of Jan 22 (EOD) this runs without warnings:

gometalinter --deadline=10s --disable=gas --disable=gocyclo --disable=gotype --disable=interfacer ./...

go run sim.go

go run test.go

All dependencies below are taken care off in the docker image dfinity/build-env.

Code currently depends on github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/common being present in the src directory. This will be removed.

Code currently calls the command line tool bls_tool.exe compiled from Shigeo's code. This is to be replaced by Shigeo's Cgo code.

The build instructions are here: https://github.com/herumi/bls -> readme.md -> Installation Requirements

That also requires apt-get install libssl-dev

For cgo, which is transitioning in, we need the environment variables set:

export LIBRARY_PATH=/build/herumi/bls/lib:/build/herumi/mcl/lib:$LIBRARY_PATH

export CPATH=/build/herumi/bls/include:$CPATH
