This package expose altcoin's Network class.
For example if you want to use Litecoin testnet:
Network network = NBitcoin.Altcoins.Litecoin.Instance.Testnet;
You can then use this fork generating a Litecoin address for example:
Console.WriteLine(new Key().PubKey.GetAddress(network));
Follow Litecoin example and make a pull request.
NBitcoin developers do not test those PRs, so you are responsible to keep it working.
If you want to test your newly created Network, update WellknownNodeDownloadData so the test environment can download binaries and run for your blockchain on regtest.
Then, change NodeBuilderEx like the following example.
public static NodeBuilder Create([CallerMemberName] string caller = null)
{
return NodeBuilder.Create(NodeDownloadData.Litecoin.v0_15_1, Altcoins.AltNetworkSets.Litecoin.Regtest, caller);
}
You can then run the tests for your altcoin in command line from the NBitcoin.Tests project:
Note that the first time can take a while because the test environment download the node binaries.
dotnet test NBitcoin.Tests.csproj --filter "Altcoins=Altcoins" -p:ParallelizeTestCollections=false --framework netcoreapp2.1
You can also manually execute any test with Visual Studio.
Note that the tests with the trait Altcoins=Altcoins are only doing some sanity check. You might want to run additional tests.
You can take a look at this commit as an example.
