Struct Block

pub struct Block {
    pub block_index: u64,
    pub timestamp: u64,
    pub previous_hash: String,
    pub hash: String,
    pub data: Value,
    pub miner_address: String,
    pub transactions: Vec<Transaction>,
}

This is the block struct.
It includes index, timestamp,
hash previous hash and data field.

Fields

block_index: u64

timestamp: u64

previous_hash: String

hash: String

data: Value

miner_address: String

transactions: Vec<Transaction>

Implementations

impl Block

Functions for Struct Block.

pub fn new( block_index: u64, timestamp: u64, previous_hash: String, data: Value, miner_address: String, transactions: Vec<Transaction>, ) -> Block

Function to create a new block struct.

pub fn calculate_hash(&self) -> String

This function calculates the hash for the block.
The hash is SHA256.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Block

fn clone(&self) -> Block

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Block

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for Block

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl PartialEq for Block

Adding Trait PartialEq.

fn eq(&self, other: &Self) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for Block

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.
