To install open a Julia REPL and run the following:
]add AbstractWalletsThe AbstractWallets API defines the following basic structures:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
AbstractAddress |
Abstraction over digital addresses. |
AbstractPortfolio |
A container of assets with methods for evaluating their value relative to other assets. |
AbstractWallet |
A wallet is a portfolio with a digital address to identify it. |
Transactions between digital wallets or from wallets to addresses is mediated by the AbstractTransaction type. Transactions can take the two generic forms
| Form | Description |
|---|---|
AbstractSendTransaction |
Results in the movement of assets from one party to another. |
AbstractDestroyTransaction |
Results in the net destruction of assets. |
which can be mediated by the two generic transaction functions:
| Action | Constructor |
|---|---|
send! |
build_send_transaction |
destroy! |
build_destroy_transaction |
To use more advanced transaction types we have the following states:
| State | Description |
|---|---|
is_pending |
Transaction is waiting to complete. |
has_executed |
Transaction was executed but not necessarily completed. It is at least pending. |
was_completed |
Transaction was executed and completed. |
was_cancelled |
Transaction was cancelled before completion. |
failed |
Transaction failed to complete, but was not cancelled. |
and the allowed actions:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
sign! |
Signatures on a transaction verify that it should be executed. |
execute! |
Execution of a transaction is the attempt to perform the appropriate transfer of assets defined in the transaction. |
cancel! |
Stop a pending transaction. |
rollback! |
Reset a completed transaction to return the state of the associated portfolios to before the transaction occured. |
cancelback! |
Cancel and then roll back the transaction. |
For cryptocurrency wallets and other wallets protected by asymmetric-cryptography, public-private key pairs are the method with which wallets can identify themselves. To access the keys, use either the keypairs(wallet) function or the privatekey(wallet, publickey).
A deterministic wallet can generate new public-private key pairs from one root private key. Such wallets are represented by the AbstractDeterministicWallet type. Use rootkey, mnemonic, or seed to access the root private key, and next_keypair! or next_address! to generate the next key.
