Releases: TiesNetwork/ties.db
Version 0.2.1-ALPHA
The TiesNetwork development team is pleased to announce TiesDB version 0.2.1. This release provides an initial implementation of the automatic node payment process. Starting from version 0.2.0, nodes store cheques in their internal storage for further redemption. This version offers a cheque redemption process through TiesDB Satellites. TiesDB Satellites are microservices for registering and monitoring nodes, and now also redeeming cheques. The normal Satellite workflow is to register a node URL and query the availability of the registered nodes from time to time. In addition, now satellites request unredeemed cheques from registered nodes and create a local store of them. Periodically, the Satellite checks the cheque storage for the most profitable cheques and then redeems them through the TiesDB smart contract. This repayment process automatically converts the cheque crops into Tie tokens, in accordance with the contract rules and fees. And transfers the tokens to the nodes serving the Table specified in the cheque. This is the basic logic for now. The future process will allow node owners to redeem cheques on their nodes by themselves.
Features
- Added billing schema to TiesDB protocol
- Implemented cheque redeeming throgh the Satellite service
- Various bug fixes
Run instructions
Before running a TiesDB Node or Coordinator you should install go-ethereum locally following the instructions from https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/wiki/Building-Ethereum. After installation succeeded you could start geth for rinkeby network using the following command:
geth --rinkeby --datadir .rinkeby --cache 512 --rpc --rpcaddr 127.0.0.1 --syncmode "light"
After geth is successfully starting you should wait for full synchronisation with selected network, to be able to access newly created tables.
For running a TiesDB Node instance please install it by downloading and unpacking the binary distribution or building it from source. Then run in the installation directory the following command for the TiesDB Node:
bin/tiesdb
Or this one for the TiesDB Coordinator:
bin/tiesdb-coordinator
Build instructions
For building a TiesDB Node or Coordinator from sources you should preinstall several tools:
- Apache Maven (version >= 3.5.2) from https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi
- Apache Ant (version >= 1.10.5) from https://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi
- Git SCM (version >= 2.15) from https://git-scm.com/downloads

- Oracle Java SE Development Kit 8 from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html
- OpenJDK 8 (Windows 10 is broken) from https://adoptopenjdk.net/releases.html?variant=openjdk8
After installing prerequisites run the following commands in sources directory:
For building custom version of cassandra (required for TiesDB node):
cd node/node-elassandra/elassandra/core/cassandra

Version 0.2.0-ALPHA
We are glad to present you a new 0.2.0 version of TiesDB! In this significant release, the system of settlements with nodes was completely revised and reimplemented. The new accounting system introduces the concept of "Crops". The Crops are analogous to Gas on the Ethereum network and operate in a similar manner. Any Entries manipulation (creation, modification, and deletion) requires adequate payment in Crops. TiesDB users issue Cheques with a certain amount of Crops for each Entry to pay the operational cost. Checks are saved at the service nodes storing the entry and eventually cashed out. The Crop is an intermediate facility to Node repayment. Each Crop is replicated for the number of Nodes serving the Entity and multiplied on the Crop cost in tokens (the cost is specified for each table), and then the total amount of tokens are distributed among the nodes. So the final amount of user payment is (tokens_amount = crops_amount * serving_nodes * crop_cost), and each node gets the (tokens_amount / serving_nodes) tokens. The Crop cost for a Table will be calculated based on the number of Fields, their types, the number of Indices, and other aspects of the particular Table.
Features
- Refactored payment system and Cheque structure
- Reorganized the structure of the Cheque storage on the Nodes
- Implemented Cheque verification and signature validation
- Minor refactoring of ths Coordinator error formatting
- Various bug fixes and improvements
