About

Hive.go is a shared library that is used in the GoShimmer, Hornet and IOTA Core node software. This library contains shared:

  • Data structures
  • Utility methods
  • Abstractions

This is beta software, so there may be performance and stability issues. Please report any issues in our issue tracker.

Prerequisites

To use the library, you need to have at least version 1.13 of Go installed on your device.

To check if you have Go installed, run the following command:

go version

If Go is installed, you should see the version that's installed.

Installation

To install Hive.go and its dependencies, you can use one of the following options:

  • If you use Go modules, just import the packages that you want to use

    import (
    "github.com/iotaledger/hive.go/logger"
    "github.com/iotaledger/hive.go/node"
    )
  • To download the library from GitHub, use the go get command

    go get github.com/iotaledger/hive.go

Getting started

After you've installed the library, you can use it in your project.

For example, to create a new logger instance:

import "github.com/iotaledger/hive.go/logger"

log = logger.NewLogger('myNewLoggerName')

Activating deadlock detection

To replace the mutexes in the syncutils package with Go deadlock, use the deadlock build flag when compiling your program.
