 # NOSTR Core Library - Automatic Versioning System
 ## Overview
 The NOSTR Core Library now features an automatic version increment system that automatically increments the patch version (e.g., v0.2.0 → v0.2.1) with each build. This ensures consistent versioning and traceability across builds.
 ## How It Works
 ### Version Format
 The library uses semantic versioning with the format: `vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`
 - **MAJOR**: Incremented for breaking changes (manual)
 - **MINOR**: Incremented for new features (manual)  
 - **PATCH**: Incremented automatically with each build
 ### Automatic Increment Process
 1. **Version Detection**: The build system scans all git tags matching `v*.*.*` pattern
 2. **Highest Version**: Uses `sort -V` to find the numerically highest version (not chronologically latest)
 3. **Patch Increment**: Increments the patch number by 1
 4. **Git Tag Creation**: Creates a new git tag for the incremented version
 5. **File Generation**: Generates `nostr_core/version.h` and `nostr_core/version.c` with build metadata
 ### Generated Files
 The system automatically generates two files during each build:
 #### `nostr_core/version.h`
 ```c
 #define VERSION_MAJOR 0
 #define VERSION_MINOR 2  
 #define VERSION_PATCH 1
 #define VERSION_STRING "0.2.1"
 #define VERSION_TAG "v0.2.1"
 #define BUILD_DATE "2025-08-09"
 #define BUILD_TIME "10:42:45"
 #define BUILD_TIMESTAMP "2025-08-09 10:42:45"
 #define GIT_HASH "ca6b475"
 #define GIT_BRANCH "master"
 // API functions
 const char* nostr_core_get_version(void);
 const char* nostr_core_get_version_full(void);
 const char* nostr_core_get_build_info(void);
 ```
 #### `nostr_core/version.c`
 Contains the implementation of the version API functions.
 ## Usage
 ### Building with Auto-Versioning
 All major build targets automatically increment the version:
 ```bash
 # Build static library (increments version)
 ./build.sh lib
 # Build shared library (increments version)
 ./build.sh shared
 # Build all libraries (increments version)
 ./build.sh all
 # Build examples (increments version)
 ./build.sh examples
 # Install to system (increments version)
 ./build.sh install
 ```
 ### Non-Versioned Builds
 Some targets do not increment versions:
 ```bash
 # Clean build artifacts (no version increment)
 ./build.sh clean
 # Run tests (no version increment)
 ./build.sh test
 ```
 ### Using Version Information in Code
 ```c
 #include "version.h"
 // Get version string
 printf("Version: %s\n", nostr_core_get_version());
 // Get full version with timestamp and commit
 printf("Full: %s\n", nostr_core_get_version_full());
 // Get detailed build information  
 printf("Build: %s\n", nostr_core_get_build_info());
 // Use version macros
 #if VERSION_MAJOR >= 1
    // Use new API
 #else
    // Use legacy API
 #endif
 ```
 ### Testing Version System
 A version test example is provided:
 ```bash
 # Build and run version test
 gcc -I. -Inostr_core examples/version_test.c -o examples/version_test ./libnostr_core.a ./secp256k1/.libs/libsecp256k1.a -lm
 ./examples/version_test
 ```
 ## Version History Tracking
 ### View All Versions
 ```bash
 # List all version tags
 git tag --list
 # View version history
 git log --oneline --decorate --graph
 ```
 ### Current Version
 ```bash
 # Check current version
 cat VERSION
 # Or check the latest git tag
 git describe --tags --abbrev=0
 ```
 ## Manual Version Management
 ### Major/Minor Version Bumps
 For major or minor version changes, manually create the appropriate tag:
 ```bash
 # For a minor version bump (new features)
 git tag v0.3.0
 # For a major version bump (breaking changes)  
 git tag v1.0.0
 ```
 The next build will automatically increment from the new base version.
 ### Resetting Version
 To reset or fix version numbering:
 ```bash
 # Delete incorrect tags (if needed)
 git tag -d v0.2.1
 git push origin --delete v0.2.1
 # Create correct base version
 git tag v0.2.0
 # Next build will create v0.2.1
 ```
 ## Integration Notes
 ### Makefile Integration
 - The `version.c` file is automatically included in `LIB_SOURCES`
 - Version files are compiled and linked with the library
 - Clean targets remove generated version object files
 ### Git Integration
 - Version files (`version.h`, `version.c`) are excluded from git via `.gitignore`
 - Only version tags and the `VERSION` file are tracked
 - Build system works in any git repository with version tags
 ### Build System Integration
 - Version increment is integrated directly into `build.sh`
 - No separate scripts or external dependencies required
 - Self-contained and portable across systems
 ## Example Output
 When building, you'll see output like:
 ```
 [INFO] Incrementing version...
 [INFO] Current version: v0.2.0
 [INFO] New version: v0.2.1
 [SUCCESS] Created new version tag: v0.2.1
 [SUCCESS] Generated version.h and version.c
 [SUCCESS] Updated VERSION file to 0.2.1
 ```
 ## Troubleshooting
 ### Version Not Incrementing
 - Ensure you're in a git repository
 - Check that git tags exist with `git tag --list`
 - Verify tag format matches `v*.*.*` pattern
 ### Tag Already Exists
 If a tag already exists, the build will continue with the existing version:
 ```
 [WARNING] Tag v0.2.1 already exists - using existing version
 ```
 ### Missing Git Information
 If git is not available, version files will show "unknown" for git hash and branch.
 ## Benefits
 1. **Automatic Traceability**: Every build has a unique version
 2. **Build Metadata**: Includes timestamp, git commit, and branch information  
 3. **API Integration**: Version information accessible via C API
 4. **Zero Maintenance**: No manual version file editing required
 5. **Git Integration**: Automatic git tag creation for version history

        fprintf(stderr, "Failed to publish to any relay\n");
        return -1;
    }
    return success_count;

 ## Notes
 - All functions are **not thread-safe**. Use from a single thread or add external synchronization.
 - **Memory ownership**: The pool duplicates filters and URLs internally. Caller owns returned events and must free them.
 - **Event deduplication** is applied pool-wide using a circular buffer of 1000 event IDs.
 - **Ping functionality** is currently disabled in this build.
 - **Reconnection** happens on-demand when sending, but active subscriptions are not automatically re-sent after reconnect.
 - **Polling model**: You must drive the event loop via [`nostr_relay_pool_run()`](nostr_core/core_relay_pool.c:1192) or [`nostr_relay_pool_poll()`](nostr_core/core_relay_pool.c:1232) to receive events.

 # NOSTR Core Integration Example
 This directory contains a complete example showing how to integrate the NOSTR Core library into your own projects.
 ## What This Example Demonstrates
 - **Library Initialization**: Proper setup and cleanup of the NOSTR library
 - **Identity Management**: Key generation, bech32 encoding, and format detection
 - **Event Creation**: Creating and signing different types of NOSTR events
 - **Input Handling**: Processing various input formats (mnemonic, hex, bech32)
 - **Utility Functions**: Using helper functions for hex conversion and error handling
 - **CMake Integration**: How to integrate the library in your CMake-based project
 ## Building and Running
 ### Method 1: Using CMake
 ```bash
 # Create build directory
 mkdir build && cd build
 # Configure with CMake
 cmake ..
 # Build
 make
 # Run the example
 ./my_nostr_app
 ```
 ### Method 2: Manual Compilation
 ```bash
 # Compile directly (assuming you're in the c_nostr root directory)
 gcc -I. examples/integration_example/main.c nostr_core.c nostr_crypto.c cjson/cJSON.c -lm -o integration_example
 # Run
 ./integration_example
 ```
 ## Expected Output
 The example will demonstrate:
 1. **Identity Management Demo**
   - Generate a new keypair
   - Display keys in hex and bech32 format
 2. **Event Creation Demo**
   - Create a text note event
   - Create a profile event
   - Display the JSON for both events
 3. **Input Handling Demo**
   - Process different input formats
   - Show format detection and decoding
 4. **Utility Functions Demo**
   - Hex conversion round-trip
   - Error message display
 ## Integration Patterns
 ### Pattern 1: CMake Find Package
 If NOSTR Core is installed system-wide:
 ```cmake
 find_package(nostr_core REQUIRED)
 target_link_libraries(your_app nostr_core::static)
 ```
 ### Pattern 2: CMake Subdirectory
 If NOSTR Core is a subdirectory of your project:
 ```cmake
 add_subdirectory(nostr_core)
 target_link_libraries(your_app nostr_core_static)
 ```
 ### Pattern 3: pkg-config
 If using pkg-config:
 ```cmake
 find_package(PkgConfig REQUIRED)
 pkg_check_modules(NOSTR_CORE REQUIRED nostr_core)
 target_include_directories(your_app PRIVATE ${NOSTR_CORE_INCLUDE_DIRS})
 target_link_libraries(your_app ${NOSTR_CORE_LIBRARIES})
 ```
 ### Pattern 4: Direct Source Integration
 Copy the essential files to your project:
 ```bash
 cp nostr_core.{c,h} nostr_crypto.{c,h} your_project/src/
 cp -r cjson/ your_project/src/
 ```
 Then compile them with your project sources.
 ## Code Structure
 ### main.c Structure
 The example is organized into clear demonstration functions:
 - `demo_identity_management()` - Key generation and encoding
 - `demo_event_creation()` - Creating different event types
 - `demo_input_handling()` - Processing various input formats
 - `demo_utilities()` - Using utility functions
 Each function demonstrates specific aspects of the library while maintaining proper error handling and resource cleanup.
 ### Key Integration Points
 1. **Initialization**
   ```c
   int ret = nostr_init();
   if (ret != NOSTR_SUCCESS) {
       // Handle error
   }
   ```
 2. **Resource Cleanup**
   ```c
   // Always clean up JSON objects
   cJSON_Delete(event);
   // Clean up library on exit
   nostr_cleanup();
   ```
 3. **Error Handling**
   ```c
   if (ret != NOSTR_SUCCESS) {
       printf("Error: %s\n", nostr_strerror(ret));
       return ret;
   }
   ```
 ## Customization
 You can modify this example for your specific needs:
 - Change the `app_config_t` structure to match your application's configuration
 - Add additional event types or custom event creation logic
 - Integrate with your existing error handling and logging systems
 - Add networking functionality using the WebSocket layer
 ## Dependencies
 This example requires:
 - C99 compiler (gcc, clang)
 - CMake 3.12+ (for CMake build)
 - NOSTR Core library and its dependencies
 ## Testing
 You can test different input formats by passing them as command line arguments:
 ```bash
 # Test with mnemonic
 ./my_nostr_app "abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon about"
 # Test with hex private key
 ./my_nostr_app "0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef"
 # Test with bech32 nsec
 ./my_nostr_app "nsec1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
 ```
 ## Next Steps
 After studying this example, you can:
 1. Integrate the patterns into your own application
 2. Explore the WebSocket functionality for relay communication
 3. Add support for additional NOSTR event types
 4. Implement your own identity persistence layer
 5. Add networking and relay management features
