A Java library for working with Dash
The dashj library is a Java implementation of the Dash protocol, which allows it to maintain a wallet and send/receive transactions without needing a local copy of Dash Core. It comes with full documentation and some example apps showing how to use it.
- Java 7 for the core modules, Java 8 for everything else
- Maven 3+ - for building the project
- Google Protocol Buffers - for use with serialization and hardware communications
To get started, it is best to have the latest JDK and Maven installed. The HEAD of the master branch contains the latest development code and various production releases are provided on feature branches.
To initialize the repo after cloning it:
git submodule update --init --recursive
To perform a full build use (this includes the dashjbls shared library):
mvn clean package
To perform a full build without building the bls shared library and skip the test:
mvn clean package -Pno-build-bls -DskipTests
To perform a full build and install it in the local maven repository:
mvn clean install
You can also run
mvn site:site
to generate a website with useful information like JavaDocs.
The outputs are under the target directory.
To deploy to the maven repository:
mvn clean deploy -DskipTests -P release
Alternatively, just import the project using your IDE. IntelliJ has Maven integration built-in and has a free Community Edition. Simply use File | Import Project and locate the pom.xml in the root of the cloned project source tree.
The dashjbls library must still be built with mvn.
These are found in the examples module.
Now you are ready to follow the tutorial. Though this is for bi 6036 tcoinj, there is no equivalent site for dashj.
