# jABCI

A Java implementation of the Tendermint Application BlockChain Interface ([ABCI](https://github.com/tendermint/abci))

## How to use

Check out [StartupExampleDummy.java](https://github.com/jTendermint/jabci/blob/master/src/main/java/com/github/jtendermint/jabci/StartupExampleDummy.java) or [JavaCounter.java](https://github.com/jTendermint/jabci/blob/master/src/main/java/com/github/jtendermint/jabci/JavaCounter.java) for examples.

#### Maven integration
jABCI v0.10.0 Release is now available via maven central. Use the following dependency to include the latest release:
```xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.jtendermint</groupId>
    <artifactId>jabci</artifactId>
    <version>0.10.0</version>
</dependency>
```

Development will move onto a dedicated `develop` branch in the short term and it's artifacts will be available in Central's snapshot repository

The current snapshot repository is: `https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/` which can be used by adding the repository:
```xml
      <repository>
         <id>snapshots-repo</id>
         <url>https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots</url>
         <releases><enabled>false</enabled></releases>
         <snapshots><enabled>true</enabled></snapshots>
       </repository>
```

Use the following dependency to include current snapshot of jABCI in your project:
```xml
            <dependency>
                <groupId>com.github.jtendermint</groupId>
                <artifactId>jabci</artifactId>
                <version>0.10.0</version>
                <scope>compile</scope>
                <!-- you might want to exclude slf4j, depending on your setup -->
                <exclusions>
                    <exclusion>
                        <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
                        <artifactId>slf4j-simple</artifactId>
                    </exclusion>
                </exclusions>
            </dependency>
```

#### Update protobuf types

When you make changes to the protobuf file, you can enable the appropriate build-phase for the compiler-plugin to generate the file(s) in the target-directory.
Just switch the comments on line [pom.xml](https://github.com/jTendermint/jabci/blob/master/pom.xml#L86).




#### Looking for TMSP?
The Tendermint protocol was changed from TMSP to ABCI. While these where just minor changes, we wanted to completely reflect all the naming changes in this project. If you're still developing with Tendermint v0.8 and prior check out the [0.8 version of jTMSP](https://github.com/jTendermint/jabci/releases/tag/v0.8)
