TODA Cryptographic Asset System

TODA is a system for creating digital assets, based on a unique crypographic distributed data structure and supporting systems.

This package contains the library for interacting with low-level structures, as well as higher-level abstractions for application design. It additionally contains the toda command-line tool to assist with development, debugging, admin and support. Further, the CLI now contains a quick-start server for serving and viewing assets.

Code Layout

core:

Defines Hash and Packet, the only two core data structures. Relies on a util class we have called ByteArray which extends UIntArray. Includes a Rig Checker, which assesses the validity of asset integrity.

• Atoms: an ordered hashmap of : pairs
• Shield: utilities for creating and checking Shield values
• ReqSat: utilities for creating and parsing Requirements and Satisfactions packets
• interpret: the rig checker
• Twist: an abstraction over Hash and Packets which represents twists
• TwistBuilder: a factory for Twists

abject:

Higher-level structures describing contents of TODA assets and how to apply the rig checker in various desireable ways.

• Actionable: any TODA object requiring a line of integrity
• DelegableActionable: a TODA object which depends on the integrity of a another in a particular way
• DI: Basic container for fields and values
• Primitive: Boxes up values for float, string, boolean in a well-specified byte representation
• Capability: a DelegableActionable intended for authorization

TODA Client

Coming soon: while the command-line tools provide a window into the range of functionality provided by the core libraries, these are being abstracted into an application developer-friendly class.
