RuboCoin

RuboCoin is my attempt of a cryptocurrency. I created it mainly just to learn more about blockchain technology. This gem is the full node you can run on your machine to mine rubocoin and handle transactions

Installation

You have 2 ways to get the rubocoin node (rubocoind). You can grab the source code or you can download the gem from RubyGems.

Installing from source

$ git clone https://github.com/cbrnrd/RuboCoin
$ cd RuboCoin
$ bundle install
$ bundle exec bin/rubocoind

Installing via gem

$ gem install rubocoin
$ rubocoind

Usage

All you have to do is open port 44856 and run rubocoind.

You can view the API documentation here

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
