Connex Entities

Connex entity contracts allows mapping of contract entities and uses a middleware (Vue plugin) to connect to Comet and Connex.

Middleware

Vue

npm i -S @decent-bet/vue-connex-entities

More info: https://github.com/decent-bet/vue-connex-entities

Adding Contract Entities to plugin middleware

Vue.use(ConnexEntityContract, {
    entities: [
      { name: 'Energy', contract: EnergyTokenContract }, 
      { name: 'DBET', contract: DBETVETTokenContract }
    ]
});

Requesting Connex and Comet

When required, request access to the external wallet and middleware will create the contract entities in the Vue instance variable $contractEntities.

The following instance variables are available:

• $requestExternalWalletAccess: Request access to external wallet
• $contractEntities: The contract entities created after external wallet access sucess.

  async loginComet() {
    await this.$requestExternalWalletAccess();
    const myAccount = this.$contractEntities.Energy.defaultAccount;
    const vthoBalance = await this.$contractEntities.Energy.balanceOf(myAccount);
  }

Contract Import

const EnergyTokenContractAbi = require('./Energy');

const EnergyContractImport: ContractImport = {
  raw: {
    abi: EnergyTokenContractAbi.abi
  },
  address: {
    '0x27': '0x0000000000000000000000000000456E65726779',
    '0x4a': '0x0000000000000000000000000000456E65726779'
  }
};

API

@ConnexContract

A contract entity maps to a contract import using the @ConnexContract, which has an IConnexContract interface and OnConnexReady mixin.

@ConnexContract({
  import: EnergyContractImport
})
export class EnergyTokenContract {
  constructor() {
    super();
  }
}

IConnexContract properties

• connex
• chainTag
• defaultAccount

OnConnexReady events

• onConnexReady(connex, chainTag, defaultAccount)

In most cases the base class will handle the basic scenario where a vendor wallet sets the connex and other properties.

Contract Methods

@GetMethod

Returns a Connex.Thor.Method instance.

  @GetMethod({
    nameOrAbi: 'balanceOf',
    address: () => EnergyContractImport.address[ConnexService.chainTag]
  })
  public balanceOfMethod(): any {}

@Read

Returns a Promise with the result of the VMOutput call execution.

  @Read({
    nameOrAbi: 'balanceOf',
    returns: 'decoded',
    address: () => EnergyContractImport.address[ConnexService.chainTag]
  })
  public balanceOf(address: string): any {}

or

  @Read()
  public balanceOf(address: string): any {}

@Write

Returns a Promise with the result of a signing execution.

  @Write({
    nameOrAbi: 'transfer',
    gas: 90_000
  })
  public transferMethod(address: string, wei: BigNumber): any {}

@MultiClauseWrite

  @MultiClauseWrite({
    nameOrAbi: 'transfer',
    gas: 90_000
  })
  public transferMethod(address: string, wei: BigNumber, world: BigNumber): any {
    return (m: Connex.Thor.Method) => {
      return [{
        comment: 'Hello',
        ...m.asClause(address, wei)
      },{
        comment: 'World',
        ...m.asClause(world)
      }];
    }
  }

Using validations

Returns an error if a validation fails, otherwise continues with call execution.

  @Write({
    nameOrAbi: 'transfer',
    gas: 90_000,
    validations: {
      address: 'address',
      wei: 'bignumber'
    }
  })
  public transferMethod(address: string, wei: BigNumber): any {}

Contract Events

@AccountEventFilter

A contract event filter, it can run once or by polling. A thunk function is required which gets a Filter instance. Returns an Observable if interval is used, else a Promise.

  @AccountEventFilter({
    nameOrAbi: 'Transfer',
    interval: 10_000,
  })
  public getTransfers$(indices: Array<object>, options: AccountEventFilterOptions) {
    return (filter: Connex.Thor.Filter<'event'>) => {
      filter.order('asc');

      return filter.apply(0, 5);
    };
  }

  @AccountEventFilter({
    nameOrAbi: 'Transfer',
    address: () => EnergyContractImport.address[ConnexService.chainTag],
  })
  public getTransfers(indices: Array<object>, options: AccountEventFilterOptions) {
    return (filter: Connex.Thor.Filter<'event'>) => {
      filter
        .order('asc')
        .range({
          unit: 'block',
          from: fromBlock,
          to
        });

      return filter.apply(0, 5);
    };
  }

Properties

• nameOrAbi(abi.Event.Definition | abi.Function.Definition | string): ABI definition name or ABI definition. Defaults to method name.
• address(string): Contract address.
• interval(number): Polls event every n seconds. To enabled, set blockConfirmationUntil to null.
• skipIndices: Skip calling event with indexed arguments.
• validations(object): Validate arguments.
• blockConfirmationUntil(number): Waits for n block confirmation before calling log event. Runs once. Default is 12 block confirmation.

Blockchain Events

@BlockchainEventFilter

Polls an event or transfer. A thunk function is required which gets a Filter instance. Returns an Observable if interval is used, else a Promise.

  @BlockchainEventFilter({
    interval: 10_000,
    kind: 'transfer'
  })
  public getAllTransfers$() {
    return (filter: Connex.Thor.Filter<'transfer'>) => {
      filter.order('asc');

      return filter.apply(0, 5);
    };
  }

Utils

@GetEventSignature

Returns an event signature

  @GetEventSignature()
  public Transfer() {
  }

@GetMethodSignature

Returns a method signature

  @GetMethodSignature()
  public transfer() {
  }
