Blockchain-Racket
=================
My walkthrough of the outstanding [Introduction to Blockchain in Lisp](https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4842-6969-5) book by [Boro Sitnikovski](https://bor0.wordpress.com/) with some changes (tests added, code comments added, [threading macros](https://docs.racket-lang.org/threading/index.html) added, code changes, etc.).
View the original project [here](https://github.com/MarkP88/racket-coin).
* [Racket 8.5](https://download.racket-lang.org/) reference platform.
* Tests included.
## Installation
1. Download this project.
2. Install [Racket](https://download.racket-lang.org/).
3. Install the dependencies. In the project root directory, execute in a shell: `make deps`.
## Example Usage
1. Run the first peer. In the project root directory, execute in a shell:
```bash
racket src/main-p2p.rkt test.data 7000 127.0.0.1:7001,127.0.0.1:7002
```
2. You will see output like the following. When you do, press _control-c_ to break execution.
```bash
Making genesis transaction...
Mining genesis block...
#
Mined a block!
Exported blockchain to 'test.data'...
```
3. Run the second peer. In the project root directory, execute in a shell:
```bash
racket src/main-p2p.rkt test2.data 7000 127.0.0.1:7001
```
4. To sync the peers, run the first peer again while keeping the second peer active. In the project root directory, execute in a shell:
```bash
racket src/main-p2p.rkt test.data 7000 127.0.0.1:7001,127.0.0.1:7002
```
To run the tests, in the project root directory, execute in a shell:
```bash
make test
```
