Light client logic and implementation. //! //! A "light" client stores very little chain-related data locally //! unlike a full node, which stores all blocks, headers, receipts, and more. //! //! This enables the client to have a much lower resource footprint in //! exchange for the cost of having to ask the network for state data //! while responding to queries. This makes a light client unsuitable for //! low-latency applications, but perfectly suitable for simple everyday //! use-cases like sending transactions from a personal account. //! //! The light client performs a header-only sync, doing verification and pruning //! historical blocks. Upon pruning, batches of 2048 blocks have a number => (hash, TD) //! mapping sealed into "canonical hash tries" which can later be used to verify //! historical block queries from peers. #![deny(missing_docs)] pub mod client; pub mod cht; pub mod net; pub mod on_demand; pub mod transaction_queue; pub mod cache; pub mod provider; mod types; pub use self::cache::Cache; pub use self::provider::Provider; pub use self::transaction_queue::TransactionQueue; pub use types::request as request; #[macro_use] extern crate serde_derive; #[macro_use] extern crate log; extern crate bincode; extern crate ethcore_io as io; extern crate ethcore_network as network; extern crate ethcore_util as util; extern crate ethcore_bigint as bigint; extern crate ethcore_bytes as bytes; extern crate ethcore; extern crate evm; extern crate heapsize; extern crate futures; extern crate itertools; extern crate memorydb; extern crate patricia_trie as trie; extern crate rand; extern crate rlp; extern crate parking_lot; #[macro_use] extern crate rlp_derive; extern crate serde; extern crate smallvec; extern crate stats; extern crate time; extern crate vm; extern crate keccak_hash as hash; extern crate triehash; extern crate kvdb; extern crate kvdb_memorydb; extern crate kvdb_rocksdb; extern crate memory_cache; #[cfg(test)] extern crate tempdir;
