General
-
Reduce Qora2 down to core blockchain node with RESTful API access. Other libraries can process name-storage data into websites, or provide web-based wallet UI, etc.
-
Trying to reduce number of external dependencies where possible, e.g. avoiding heavy-weight ORM like Hive, Hibernate, etc.
-
Trying to reduce duplicated code, especially across transactions with lots of serialisation and signature generation.
-
Transaction signatures should really be generated after creating the transaction, compared to the old style of generating signature first (and throw-away transaction in the process) then using signature when creating actual transaction!
-
Trying to keep most of the source structure, naming, code paths, etc. similar to old Qora to reduce brain load!

Differences due to switching from MapDB to HSQLDB
-
We might need to maintain more mappings in the database, e.g. Qora address to/from public key, as previously public key objects could be stored directly in MapDB.
-
The new database tried to store the data in "rawest" form, i.e. raw
byte[]signatures, not base58-encoded. -
The
Transactionstable containscreatorcolumn, which duplicates various child table columns, e.g.PaymentTransactions.sender, so that all transactions by a specific Qora account can be quickly found without scanning all child tables. -
SQL is contained within repository classes repository.* (interfaces) and repository.hsqldb.* (implementations).
-
We use transfer objects in data.*
-
"Business logic" is left in qora.*
-
Some MapDB-based objects had Java Map<> objects as their values. These will need to be unpacked into separate tables.
