Bytom is software designed to operate and connect to highly scalable blockchain networks confirming to the Bytom Blockchain Protocol, which allows partipicants to define, issue and transfer digitial assets on a multi-asset shared ledger. Please refer to the White Paper for more details.
In the current state bytom
is able to:
- Issue assets
- Manage account as well as asset
- Go version 1.8 or higher, with
$GOPATH
set to your preferred directory
Ensure Go with the supported version is installed properly:
$ go version
$ go env GOROOT GOPATH
$ git clone https://github.com/Bytom/bytom $GOPATH/src/github.com/bytom
- Bytomd
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/bytom
$ make install
$ cd ./cmd/bytomd
$ go build
- Bytomcli
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/bytom/cmd/bytomcli
$ go build
Currently, bytom is still in active development and a ton of work needs to be done, but we also provide the following content for these eager to do something with bytom
.
When successfully building the project, the bytom
and bytomcli
binary should be present in cmd/bytom/bytom
and cmd/bytomcli/bytomcli
, respectively. The next step is to initialize the node:
$ cd ./cmd/bytomd
$ ./bytomd init
After that, you'll see .bytom
generated in current directory, then launch the single node:
$ ./bytomd node --wallet.enable
Given the bytom
node is running, the general workflow is as follows:
- create an account
- create an asset
- create/sign/submit a transaction to transfer an asset
- query the assets on-chain
Create an account named alice
:
$ ./bytomcli create-account alice
xprv:<alice_account_private_key>
responses:{acc04K9MCFBG0A04 alice [0xc4200966e0] 1 0xc4204be220}
account id:<alice_account_id>
Create an asset named gold
:
$ ./bytomcli create-asset gold
xprv:<gold_asset_private_key>
xpub:[98 55 100 48 102 100 53 101 54 55 55 49 48 52 97 100 50 100 51 51 98 49 56 98 98 100 55 55 50 51 98 53 102 51 101 97 56 55 49 52 48 53 57 54 50 56 55 48 49 97 50 99 97 100 101 51 51 102 100 100 97 53 56 51 49 54 97 50 57 54 101 49 102 100 48 102 53 57 99 55 50 49 53 98 50 54 55 102 50 52 102 52 54 50 48 101 51 48 102 55 99 51 50 56 49 102 97 52 99 55 97 53 102 50 57 97 100 53 51 100 56 100 55 56 50 50 98 98]
responses:[{{4131000809721133708 15036469059929217352 9712753415038655527 16992088508821480533} gold [118 107 170 32 152 106 231 249 212 15 215 121 94 191 102 23 231 61 38 211 121 176 221 199 48 173 145 207 243 201 82 0 215 2 72 243 81 81 173 105 108 0 192] [0xc420020850] 1 0xc4204c1960 0xc4204c1980 true}]
asset id:<gold_asset_id>
Now we can transafer <gold_asset_amount>
gold to alice
using a single command sub-create-issue-tx
:
$ ./bytomcli sub-create-issue-tx <alice_account_id> <gold_asset_id> <asset_private_key> <gold_asset_amount>

Query the assets on-chain:
$ ./bytomcli list-balances
0 ----- map[<gold_asset_id>:<gold_asset_amount>]
If you have started a bytom node, then you can create an account via create-key password
, which will generate a keystore
directory containing the keys under the project directory.
$ ./bytomcli create-key account_name password # Create an account named account_name using password
$ ./bytomcli delete-key password pubkey # Delete account pubkey
$ ./bytomcli reset-password oldpassword newpassword pubkey # Update password
Get the submodule depenency for the two-node test:
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
Create the first node bytomd0
and second node bytomd1
:
$ cd cmd/bytomd/2node-test
$ ./test.sh bytomd0 # Start the first node
$ ./test.sh bytomd1 # Start the second node
Then we have two nodes:
$ curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0", "method": "net_info", "params":[], "id":"67"}' http://127.0.0.1:46657
If everything goes well, we'll see the following response:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": "67",
"result": {
"listening": true,
"listeners": [
"Listener(@192.168.199.178:3332)"
