前言
在前一篇“golang-区块链学习01”的基础上，增加我们区块链的工作量证明。
知识点
1、区块链ProofOfWork（工作量证明）概念，因为所有人都想生成区块来获取奖励，为了公平起见，我们规定要想成功生成一个区块必须完成指定难度的任务才行。也就是谁先完成指定难度的任务就将成功生成一个区块。先预留个彩蛋，结合实例的工作量证明将在文末总结。
golang实现简单的工作量证明
1、定义一个工作量难度。比如要求生产的区块的hash值前面五位必须为0。即hash类似：00000xxxxxxxxxxx的样式。
2、在Block的结构中增加一个Nonce变量，通过不断修改Nonce的值，不断计算整个区的hash值，直到满足上面的要求即可。
3、代码实例
创建一个proofofwork.go文件。定义一个工作量证明的结构体
type ProofOfWork struct {
block *Block // 即将生成的区块对象
target *big.Int //生成区块的难度}创建实例化工作量证明结构体.
const targetBits = 20func NewProofOfWork(b *Block) *ProofOfWork {
target := big.NewInt(1) //难度：target=10的18次方（即要求计算出的hash值小于这个target）
target.Lsh(target, uint(256-targetBits)) pow := &ProofOfWork{b, target} return pow}计算hash值的算法
func (pow *ProofOfWork) Run() (int, []byte) {
var hashInt big.Int
var hash [32]byte
nonce := 0// 从0自增
fmt.Printf("Mining the block containing \"%s\"\n", pow.block.Data) // 循环从nonce=0一直计算到nonce=2的64次方的值，知道算出符合要求的hash值
for nonce < maxNonce { // 准备计算hash的数据
data := pow.prepareData(nonce)
hash = sha256.Sum256(data)// 计算hash
fmt.Printf("\r%x", hash)
hashInt.SetBytes(hash[:]) // 难度证明
if hashInt.Cmp(pow.target) == -1 { break// 符合
} else {
nonce++// 不符合继续计算
}
}
fmt.Printf("\n\n") return nonce, hash[:]
}准备数据
func (pow *ProofOfWork) prepareData(nonce int) []byte { data := bytes.Join([][]byte{
pow.block.PrevBlockHash,
pow.block.Data,
IntToHex(pow.block.TimeStamp), IntToHex(int64(targetBits)), IntToHex(int64(nonce)),
}, []byte{}) return data}附件
