Kadena Rust Lib

Continuous Integration License: MIT Contributor Covenant

A comprehensive Rust library for interacting with Pact smart contracts and the Kadena blockchain. This library provides a type-safe, ergonomic interface for creating and signing Pact commands, managing cryptographic operations, and interacting with Kadena nodes.

Features

  • 🔑 Cryptographic Operations
    • ED25519 key generation and management
    • Message signing and verification
    • Blake2b hashing
  • 📜 Pact Command Creation
    • Type-safe command builders
    • Capability management
    • Transaction metadata handling
  • 🔄 Transaction Management
    • Command preparation
    • Transaction signing
    • Local and Send endpoint integration

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
kadena = "0.1.0"

Quick Start

use kadena::{
    crypto::PactKeypair,
    pact::{
        meta::Meta,
        cap::Cap,
        command::Cmd,
    },
    fetch::{ApiClient, ApiConfig}
};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Create keypair from known keys
    let keypair = PactKeypair::generate();

    // Format sender account with "k:" prefix
    let sender_account = format!("k:{}", keypair.public_key);

    let network = "testnet04";
    let chain_id = "0";

    // Create metadata using the new constructor and builder pattern
    let meta = Meta::new(chain_id, &sender_account)
        .with_gas_limit(1500)
        .with_gas_price(0.00000001)
        .with_ttl(3600);

    // Create capabilities using the new constructors
    let caps = vec![
        Cap::new("coin.GAS"), // Using the convenience constructor for GAS capability
        Cap::transfer(&sender_account, "Bob", 10.0), // Using the convenience constructor for TRANSFER
    ];

    // Create Pact code for the transaction
    let pact_code = format!("(coin.transfer \"{}\" \"Bob\" 10.0)", sender_account);

    // Prepare the execution command using the new method
    let transaction_cmd = Cmd::prepare_exec(
        &[(&keypair, caps)],
        None, // Let it generate a random nonce
        &pact_code,
        None,
        meta,
        Some(network.to_string()),
    )?;

    println!("Transaction Payload:");
    println!("{}", serde_json::to_string_pretty(&transaction_cmd)?);

    // Send the transaction to the Kadena testnet node
    // Create the client
    let client = ApiClient::new(
        ApiConfig::new("https://api.testnet.chainweb.com", network, chain_id).with_timeout(60),
    );
    let result = client.local(&transaction_cmd).await?;

    println!("\nTransaction Response:");
    println!("{}", serde_json::to_string_pretty(&result)?);

    Ok(())
}
