A set of tools for handling functions related to the NANO cryptocurrency protocol.

Features

========

* Solve and verify proof-of-work

* Create and deserialize legacy and universal blocks

* Account generation from seed using the same algorithm as the original NANO wallet and NanoVault

* Functions for converting between different NANO denominations

* High performance cryptographic operations using C extensions (signing and verifying blocks, and generating block proof-of-work)

  * Proof-of-work generation supports SSE2, SSSE3, SSE4.1, AVX and NEON instruction sets for improved performance. The best supported implementation is selected at runtime with a fallback implementation with universal compatibility.

* Backed by automated tests

* Compatible with Python 3.6 and up

* Licensed under the very permissive *Creative Commons Zero* license

Installation

============

You can install the library using pip:

```

pip install nanolib

```

nanolib requires a working build environment for the C extensions. For example, on Debian-based distros you can install the required Python header files and a C compiler using the following command:

```

apt install build-essential python3-dev

```

Documentation

=============

An online copy of the documentation can be found at [Read the Docs](https://nanolib.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).

You can also build the documentation yourself by running `python setup.py build_sphinx`.

Commands

========

The `setup.py` script comes with a few additional commands besides installation:

* `build_sphinx`

  * Build the documentation in `build/sphinx/html`.

* `test`

  * Run tests using pytest

* `speed`

  * Run a benchmark testing the performance of various cryptographic operations used in the library.
