adieska/ibc-rs

Rust implementation of the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol.

ibc-rs

Rust implementation of the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol that hosts all the data structures and on-chain logic implementations of various IBC core, clients and applications. This repository organized as a collection of sub-crates that can be used independently or together.

Project Structure

Crate	Description
ibc	Re-exports all the data structures and on-chain logic of various IBC core, clients and applications.
ibc-data-types	Re-exports all the IBC data types that are shared across different IBC implementations.
ibc-core	Contains data structures and implementations of all the IBC core specifications.
ibc-clients	Contains data structures and implementations of various IBC light clients.
ibc-apps	Contains data structures and implementations of various IBC applications.
ibc-testkit	Provides testing toolkit to aid ibc-rs and host chains in writing integration tests.
ibc-query	Contains utility traits and implementations for querying states of an integrated IBC module.
ibc-derive	Derive macros for ClientState and ConsensusState traits, reducing boilerplate.

Contributing

IBC is specified in English in the cosmos/ibc repo. Any protocol changes or clarifications should be contributed there.

If you're interested in contributing, please take a look at the CONTRIBUTING guidelines. We welcome and appreciate community contributions!

Community calls

The IBC-rs community calls are now part of the IBC Core community calls. During these calls, we update the community on our current direction and gather feedback on what to work on next. The community calls are also a platform for you to update everyone else on what you're working on and find opportunities to collaborate.

Please join the Google group to receive a calendar invitation to the monthly meetings.

Versioning

We follow Semantic Versioning, though APIs are still under active development.
