embedded IOTA C library

embedded IOTA C library

Alpha version:

API might change over time. Don't use it in production environments!

Design:

This library is designed to make it possible to use IOTA on really small embedded devices. The library has the following attributes:

• POSIX compatible Threads (pthread)
• Thread-safe
• Low footprint
• Usable on devices without MMU
• C99 compliant

A notice to trytes:

Due to confusion of several people, a short explanation about the conversions. The API for the conversion is available in conversion.c and conversion.h.

In this context the following words have the following meaning:

Chars: Means the char representation of an Tryte. (ASCII character) A - Z and 9. (base-27 encoded ternary number) Bytes: Means a byte representation of trytes, optimized for low storage and memory usage.
Trits: Means a int8_t array representation of trits.
Trytes: Means a int8_t array representation of trytes.

Conversion space ratio

One transaction = 2673 trytes = ((2673/81) * 48) Bytes = 2673*3 Trits = 2673 chars

Usage:

Generation of addresses

Coming soon.

Generation of transactions and bundles

Coming soon.
