QBFT
Package qbft is an implementation of the "The Istanbul BFT Consensus Algorithm" by Henrique Moniz
as referenced by the QBFT spec.
Features
- Simple API, just a single function:
qbft.Run. - Consensus on arbitrary data.
- Transport abstracted and not provided.
- Decoupled from process authentication and message signing (not provided).
- No dependencies.
- Explicit justifications.
TODO
- Add specific Byzantium tests.
- Add long-running tests. Workaround for now: while go test . -count=10 -timeout=5s; do; done
# Functions
InputValue is a convenience function to create a populated input value channel.
Run executes the consensus algorithm until the context closed.
# Constants
Note that message type ordering MUST not change, since it breaks backwards compatibility.

# Structs
Definition defines the consensus system parameters that are external to the qbft algorithm.
Transport abstracts the transport layer between processes in the consensus system.
# Interfaces
Msg defines the inter process messages.
