* introduce grin_keychain, encapsulate derivation of secret_keys
* core compiles against keychain, tests don't run yet
* core tests are now passing against keychain
* wip - getting wallet working with keychain
* add util and keychain to travis test matrix
* basic test around key derivation
* Adding ability to load multiple mining plugins in parallel via cuckoo miner
* updating with newest cuckoo-miner changes
* revert default config value
* update pow document with link to podcast
* Adding output stats from plugin, when available
* adding grin config
* moving pow crate from core/pow to it's own crate
* moving POW/mining stuff into pow module, and removing mining dependency from chain
* refactored most of mining into pow module...miner.rs still in server
* update grin tests
* updating genesis block mining to use configured miner, if available
* chain tests back into chain, done with pow refactor
* use tag of cuckoo-miner for pr
* minor cleanup - unused imports
* cleanup build warnings - unused vars
* make structs pub to get rid of the private_in_public lint warning
* missing docs on RangeProof
* add missing docs to store delete function
* cleaned up deprecation warning -
tokio_core -> tokio_io
complete() -> send()
* playing around with changing cuckoo sizes on the fly
* modifying tests to use global cuckoo parameters, and checking results
* check for pow size
* Changing global function names, and removing length from POW serialization
* Adding ability to serialise parts of the header, pre-nonce and post-nonce
* Some test integration of queueing functions in cuckoo-miner
* more cuckoo-miner async mode integration, now more or less working
* integrating async miner workflow
* rocksdb update
* u64 internal difficulty representation, and integration of latest Cuckoo-miner API
* change to cuckoo-miner notify function
* Issue in testing, and if use_async value is None in grin.toml
* making async mode explicit in tests - 2
* fiddle with port numbers for CI
* update tag to ensure cuckoo-miner build doesn't fail on windows
* change the order in which tests are run
* Adding cuckoo-miner into grin as a proper dependency now
* Defaulting to using cuckoo-miner
* Updates to tests to use cuckoo_miner by default, (using cuckoo16)
* addition of configuration file to grin executable, instructions on how it's picked up are in grin.toml
* Starting to add a configuration file, and change some elements of configuration structures to make them more consistent
* Refactoring to allow for different miner implementations. Added conditional support for compiling and loading the cuckoo-miner plugin project.
* Small changes to experimentally integrate with cuckoo-miner and compatibility with latest version of cuckoo-miner.
* Turning off inclusion of cuckoo_miner by default
* Disabling simulate_parallel_mining test for now
* Beginning to add a POW description, and some minor changes to mining testing, addition of further debug information to mining output.
* Many additions to create first draft of POW documentation
* Fixes to difficult adjustments by adding a MINIMUM_DIFFICULTY consensus value. Otherwise never adjusted above 1 due to flooring.
* Starting to refactor test, adding http post to wallet sender
* Implemented ability to run servers on different ports (mostly for testing), and implemented ability to post http requests directly to receiving wallets
* Adding detailed instructions on running multiple servers on the same machine
* Changes to build.doc to outline server running process
* Removed unwanted debug statements
* WIP Local server testing framework evolution
* More refactoring of server pool, checked in because there's a problem
* Added server reference structure, and ability to return server references from tests cleanly
* Added simulate_parallel_mining test, which puts some artificial slowdown into test mining loops, and the difficulty can currently be watched in the log
* Removing the ServerRef structure placed in earlier and replaced with a ServerStats structure, that just returns relevant info about the Server state without exposing it to the world
Integrate the new difficulty calculation into the block chain
validation, the miner and tests. As the difficulty calculation
doesn't use varying Cuckoo sizes anymore and we narrowed down
reasonable final Cuckoo Cycle parameters, removed all Cuckoo
Cycle sizes from block headers.
Formalized easier Cuckoo Cycle sizes for testing (and possibly
testnet) by introducing a test mode in configuration. Updated
all tests.
* Beginning to refactor server tests
* Extended test framework to include running wallet servers and miners. Also some changes to the wallet reciever api to include a wallet config and set the data directly for the wallet file explicitly rather than assuming it's always in the working dir.
* Adding wallet config to main executable
* Adding ability to select wallet server while mining
* Configurable wallet receiver url
