PoH-yugen (Proof-of-History Implementation)

Author: @silene0259

Description

Proof-of-History offers a realistic way of measuring time using hash functions and ticks (time intervals). PoH-yugen features advanced features like custom configuration including:

• Interval Choosing (Ticks)
• Max Entries (Number of Ticks Per Slot)
• Generic Hash Functions (any that use the digest trait)
• Appending Data Per Tick
• Seeding
• Other Advanced Features

Usage

use poh_yugen::{PoHConfig,PoHUsage,InitialSeed,TickEntryType};
use sha2::Sha256;

fn main() {
    let config = PoHConfig::new(Sha256::new(), 32, 100, Some(1000), true, true, TickEntryType::Data);
    let seed = InitialSeed([0; 64]);
    let mut poh = PoHUsage::new(config, seed, Some(vec![1, 2, 3]), vec![]);
    println!("{:?}", poh.state);
    println!("Initializing PoH...");
    // Initialize the PoH process
    poh.init();
}
