Nonce mining is slow on json object, on string is fast but on bytes is the fastest.
Have been trying to develop an nostr server, and looked at the event id mining.
Thus gave it a try as a unit test, and thought to share it as you may need equal like code;
@Test
public void testMining() throws Exception {
Duration maxMining = Duration.ofSeconds(360);
int maxDifficulty = (OctoTrust.KEY_LENGTH * 8) / 2; // is 128 thus 50% of bits are zero
NoStrIdentity nid = new NoStrIdentity(NoStrIdentityPrivateKey.ofRandom());
try (JsonReader reader = Json.createReader(new InputStreamReader(getClass().getResourceAsStream("note-text-simple.json")))) {
NoStrEvent event = new NoStrEvent(reader.readObject());
Assertions.assertTrue(NoStrEventSignature.verify(event));
int testOffsetDifficulty = 10; // +12 from note-text-simple.json
// use test public key and copy others
NoStrEventPayload payload = new NoStrEventPayload(nid.getPublicKey(), event.getPayload().getCreatedAt(), event.getPayload().getKind(), event.getPayload().getTags(), event.getPayload().getContent());
Optional<NoStrEventTag> nonceTagOpt = payload.findFirstByQName(NoStrImplEventTag.NONCE);
if (nonceTagOpt.isEmpty()) {
return; // no mining requested
}
// replace X NoStrEventTag impl or NoStrEventTagCustom or NoStrTagNonce with local tag for setter access
NoStrTagNonce nonceTag = new NoStrTagNonce(Integer.parseInt(nonceTagOpt.get().getMetaArgument(NoStrImplTagNonce.DIFFICULTY).get()) + testOffsetDifficulty);
int nonceTagIdx = payload.getTags().indexOf(nonceTagOpt.get());
payload.getTags().set(nonceTagIdx, nonceTag);
int targetDifficulty = nonceTag.getDifficulty();
if (targetDifficulty > maxDifficulty) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Target difficulty can't be larger than " + maxDifficulty);
}
int mineCnt = 0;
byte[] eventId = null;
int leadingZeroBits = 0;
byte[] nowStr = Long.toString(payload.getCreatedAt().getEpochSecond()).getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
byte[] payloadStr = NoStrEventSignature.generateEventIdJsonString(payload).getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
int createdAtLength = nowStr.length;
int createdAtIdx = indexOf(payloadStr, nowStr, indexOf(payloadStr, new byte[]{'\"'}, 5));
int nonceProofIdx = indexOf(payloadStr, "\"nonce\"".getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8), 0) + 9;// ["nonce","7539","12"]],
int nonceProofLength = Integer.toString(nonceTag.getBearerProof()).getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8).length;
long createdAtTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
long maxMiningTime = createdAtTime + maxMining.toMillis();
MessageDigest sha256 = OctoTrustHash.sha256Algorithm();
while (leadingZeroBits < targetDifficulty) {
mineCnt++;
createdAtTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
if (createdAtTime > maxMiningTime) {
throw new IllegalStateException("Mining resource limit exceeded");
}
long createdAtTimeSecs = createdAtTime / 1000;
int createdAtTimeDigits = numDigits(createdAtTimeSecs);
if (createdAtLength != createdAtTimeDigits) {
createdAtLength = createdAtTimeDigits;
payloadStr = growBySplit(payloadStr, createdAtIdx);
}
writeDigits(createdAtTimeSecs, createdAtTimeDigits, payloadStr, createdAtIdx);
int nonceProofDigits = numDigits(mineCnt);
if (nonceProofLength != nonceProofDigits) {
nonceProofLength = nonceProofDigits;
payloadStr = growBySplit(payloadStr, nonceProofIdx);
}
writeDigits(mineCnt, nonceProofDigits, payloadStr, nonceProofIdx);
eventId = sha256.digest(payloadStr);
leadingZeroBits = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < eventId.length; i++) {
int step = eventId[i] & 0xFF; // force unsigned
if (step == 0) {
leadingZeroBits += 8;
continue;
}
leadingZeroBits += Integer.numberOfLeadingZeros(step) - 24;
break;
}
}
payload.setCreatedAt(Instant.ofEpochMilli(createdAtTime));
nonceTag.setBearerProof(mineCnt);
NoStrEvent eventMined = NoStrEventSignature.sign(payload, nid.getPrivateKey(), eventId);
