Crate merkle [−] [src]

merkle implements a Merkle Tree in Rust.

Structs

MerkleTree	A Merkle tree is a binary tree, with values of type `T` at the leafs, and where every node holds the hash of the concatenation of the hashes of its children nodes.
Proof	An inclusion proof represent the fact that `value` is a member of a `MerkleTree` with root hash `root_hash`, and hash function `digest`. A proof is a linked-list of `ProofBlock`s. TODO: Represent a proof as a vector of ProofBlock instead of a linked-list?
ProofBlock	A `ProofBlock` is a linked-list holding the hash of the node, the hash of its sibling node, and the rest of the inclusion proof.

Tags a value so that we know from in branch (if any) it was found.

The sole purpose of this trait is to extend the standard crypto::digest::Digest with a couple utility functions.
