Merge pull request #22 from garious/add-transaction
Extend the event log with a Transaction event to transfer possession
2018-02-26 11:26:58 -07:00
Greg Fitzgerald b02eab57d2 Extend the event log with a Transaction event to transfer possession
This implementation assumes 'from' is the current owner of 'data'.
Once that's verified, the signature ensures that nobody modified
'data' (the asset being transferred) or 'to' the entity taking
ownership.

Fixes #14

Greg Fitzgerald 08e501e57b Extend the event log with a Claim event to claim possession
Unlike a Discovery event, a Claim event associates a public key
with a hash. It's intended to to be used to claim ownership of
some hashable data. For example, a graphic designer could claim
copyright by hashing some image they created, signing it with
their private key, and publishing the hash-signature pair via
the historian. If someone else tries to claim it as their own,
the designer can point to the historian's log as cryptographically
secure evidence that the designer's copy existed before anyone
else's.

Note there's nothing here that verifies the first claim is the actual
content owner, only that the first claim almost certainly happened
before a second.

Greg Fitzgerald 29a607427d Rename UserDataKey to Discovery
From the perspective of the log, when some data's hash is added,
that data is "discovered" by the historian.  Another event
might be a "claim" that some signed data belongs to the owner of a
public key.

Also:
* Hash userdata so that verification works as the readme describes.
* Drop itertools package. Found a way to use std::iter instead.

Greg Fitzgerald 0297edaf1f Use sha256 hashes instead of Rust's builtin hasher.
Causes a 20x performance degradation. Enabling asm did not
speed things up.
