rsk3.js

rsk3

The rsk3 allows you to interact with a Rsk blockchain itself and the deployed smart contracts.

import {Rsk3} from '@rsksmart/rsk3';

const rsk3 = new Rsk3('ws://some.local-or-remote.node:8546', null, options);

// -> rsk3

Note on checksum addresses

All Rsk addresses returned by functions of this package are returned as checksum addresses. This means some letters are uppercase and some are lowercase. Based on that it will calculate a checksum for the address and prove its correctness. Incorrect checksum addresses will throw an error when passed into functions. If you want to circumvent the checksum check you can make an address all lower- or uppercase.

Example

rsk3.getAccounts(console.log);
> ["0x11f4d0A3c12e86B4b5F39B213F7E19D048276DAe" ,"0x85F43D8a49eeB85d32Cf465507DD71d507100C1d"]

options

An Rsk3 module does provide several options for configuring the transaction confirmation worklfow or for defining default values. These are the currently available option properties on a Rsk3 module:

Module Options

defaultAccount

defaultBlock

defaultGas

defaultGasPrice

transactionBlockTimeout

transactionConfirmationBlocks

transactionPollingTimeout

transactionSigner

Example

import {Rsk3} from '@rsksmart/rsk3';

const options = {
    defaultAccount: '0x0',
    defaultBlock: 'latest',
    defaultGas: 1,
    defaultGasPrice: 0,
    transactionBlockTimeout: 50,
    transactionConfirmationBlocks: 24,
    transactionPollingTimeout: 480,
    transactionSigner: new CustomTransactionSigner()
}

const rsk3 = new Rsk3('http://localhost:8545', null, options);

defaultBlock

rsk3.defaultBlock
...

The default block is used for all methods which have a block parameter. You can override it by passing the block parameter if a block is required.

Example:

rsk3.getBalance()
rsk3.getCode()
rsk3.getTransactionCount()
rsk3.getStorageAt()
rsk3.call()
new rsk3.Contract() -> myContract.methods.myMethod().call()

Returns

The defaultBlock property can return the following values:

Number: A block number
"genesis" - String: The genesis block
"latest" - String: The latest block (current head of the blockchain)
"pending" - String: The currently mined block (including pending transactions)

Default is "latest"

defaultAccount

rsk3.defaultAccount
...

This default address is used as the default "from" property, if no "from" property is specified.

Returns

String - 20 Bytes: Any Rsk address. You need to have the private key for that address in your node or keystore. (Default is undefined)

defaultGasPrice

rsk3.defaultGasPrice
...

The default gas price which will be used for a request.

Returns

string|number: The current value of the defaultGasPrice property.

defaultGas

rsk3.defaultGas
...

The default gas which will be used for a request.

Returns

string|number: The current value of the defaultGas property.

transactionBlockTimeout

rsk3.transactionBlockTimeout
...

The transactionBlockTimeout will be used over a socket based connection. This option does define the amount of new blocks it should wait until the first confirmation happens. This means the PromiEvent rejects with a timeout error when the timeout got exceeded.

Returns

number: The current value of transactionBlockTimeout

transactionConfirmationBlocks

rsk3.transactionConfirmationBlocks
...

This defines the number of blocks it requires until a transaction will be handled as confirmed.

Returns

number: The current value of transactionConfirmationBlocks

transactionPollingTimeout

rsk3.transactionPollingTimeout
...

The transactionPollingTimeout will be used over a HTTP connection. This option does define the amount of polls (each second) it should wait until the first confirmation happens.

Returns

number: The current value of transactionPollingTimeout

transactionSigner

rsk3.transactionSigner
...

The transactionSigner property does provide us the possibility to customize the signing process of the Rsk3 module and the related sub-modules.

The interface of a TransactionSigner:

interface TransactionSigner {
    sign(txObject: Transaction): Promise<SignedTransaction>
}

interface SignedTransaction {
    messageHash: string,
    v: string,
    r: string,
    s: string,
    rawTransaction: string
}

Returns

TransactionSigner: A JavaScript class of type TransactionSigner.

setProvider

rsk3.setProvider(myProvider)
...

Will change the provider for its module.

Parameters

Object|String - provider: a valid provider
Net - net: (optional) the node.js Net package. This is only required for the IPC provider.

Returns

Boolean

Example

import {Rsk3} from '@rsksmart/rsk3';

const rsk3 = new Rsk3('http://localhost:8545');


// change provider
rsk3.setProvider('ws://localhost:8546');

// Using the IPC provider in node.js
const net = require('net');
const rsk3 = new Rsk3('/Users/myuser/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc', net); // mac os path

// or
const rsk3 = new Rsk3(new Rsk3.providers.IpcProvider('/Users/myuser/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc', net)); // mac os path
// on windows the path is: '\\\\.\\pipe\\geth.ipc'
// on linux the path is: '/users/myuser/.ethereum/geth.ipc'

providers

Rsk3.providers
...

Contains the current available providers.

Value

Object with the following providers:

Object - HttpProvider: The HTTP provider is deprecated, as it won't work for subscriptions.

Object - WebsocketProvider: The Websocket provider is the standard for usage in legacy browsers.

Object - IpcProvider: The IPC provider is used node.js dapps when running a local node. Gives the most secure connection.

Example

const {Rsk3} = require('@rsksmart/rsk3');


// Using the IPC provider in node.js
const net = require('net');

const rsk3 = new Rsk3('/Users/myuser/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc', net); // mac os path
// or
