This commit solves several issues concerning the genesis block: * Genesis/ChainConfig loading was handled by cmd/geth code. This left library users in the cold. They could specify a JSON-encoded string and overwrite the config, but didn't get any of the additional checks performed by geth. * Decoding and writing of genesis JSON was conflated in WriteGenesisBlock. This made it a lot harder to embed the genesis block into the forthcoming config file loader. This commit changes things so there is a single Genesis type that represents genesis blocks. All uses of Write*Genesis* are changed to use the new type instead. * If the chain config supplied by the user was incompatible with the current chain (i.e. the chain had already advanced beyond a scheduled fork), it got overwritten. This is not an issue in practice because previous forks have always had the highest total difficulty. It might matter in the future though. The new code reverts the local chain to the point of the fork when upgrading configuration. The change to genesis block data removes compression library dependencies from package core. |

Swarm ENS interface
Usage
Full documentation for the Ethereum Name Service can be found as EIP 137. This package offers a simple binding that streamlines the registration arbitrary utf8 domain names to swarm content hashes.
Development
The SOL file in contract subdirectory implements the ENS root registry, a simple first-in-first-served registrar for the root namespace, and a simple resolver contract; they're used in tests, and can be used to deploy these contracts for your own purposes.
The solidity source code can be found at github.com/arachnid/ens/.
The go bindings for ENS contracts are generated using abigen via the go generator:
go generate ./contracts/ens
