AElf Common

Overview

AElf Common is a foundational library for the AElf blockchain project. It contains essential types and helper classes that are used throughout the AElf system.

Features

• Common Types: Basic data structures and types used across the AElf project, like AElf.Types and AElf.Kernel.Types.
• Helper Classes: Utility classes that provide common functionalities, like AElf.Cryptography.
• Extensions: Extension methods to enhance the functionality of existing types.
• Infrastructure: Database implementation of AElf, AElf.Database.

Installation

To install AElf Common, add the following package to your project:

dotnet add package AElf.Common

Usage

Here are some examples of how to use the types and helper classes provided by AElf Common:

Example 1: Using a Common Type

using AElf.Common;

public class Example
{
    public void UseCommonType()
    {
        var hash = HashHelper.ComputeFrom("example");
        Console.WriteLine(hash.ToHex());
        var address = Address.FromPublicKey(GenerateKeyPair().PublicKey);
        Console.WriteLine(address.ToBase58());
    }
}

Example 2: Using a Helper Class

using AElf.Common.Helpers;

public class Example
{
    public ECKeyPair GenerateKeyPair()
    {
        var ecKeyPair = CryptoHelper.GenerateKeyPair();
        Console.WriteLine(ecKeyPair.PublicKey.ToHex());
        return ecKeyPair;
    }
}
