The Go-verushash implementation is experimental software. Use it at your own risk.

This is preliminary work and subject to change.

# Overview

[Go-verushash](https://github.com/asherda/Go-verushash) is an implementation of the VerusCoin hash algorithms in C++ wrapped using swig to allow access from go

The C++ source modules are identical with those used in the [verusd](https://giuthub.com/VerusCoin/VerusCoin) peer to peer daemon. The hash is current as of the V2b2 version, supporting that and all prior hashes.

# Local/Developer Usage

Dependencies: cmake, go, swig, protoc, c++

Install [Cmake](https://cmake.org/download/)

Install [Go](https://golang.org/dl/#stable) version 1.11 or later. You can see your current version by running `go version`.

## Getting Started
First clone the archive and run cmake
```
~$ git clone [email protected]:Asherda/Go-VerusHash.git

```
Now that you've generated the Makefile, run make repeatedly each time you change naything, no need to repeat cmake:
```
~/Go-VerusHash$ make

```
If everything worked you now have the library file in the projects root directory.
```
~/Go-VerusHash$ ls -l libverushash.a
-rw-r--r-- 1 virtualsoundnw virtualsoundnw 1059760 Aug 19 22:18 libverushash.a
~/Go-VerusHash$
```
Usually you simply import this module directly from github into your golang module, so you won't need to do all of the above steps unless you are actually working on the Go-VerusHash code directly.
# Using Go_VerusHash
Import Go-VerusHash into your golang modules to access the verushash method.
