Crypto.org Chain JS library
Warning
Crypto.org Chain and this library is currently in the alpha development phase and subjects to changes. Before proceeding, please be aware of the following:
-
This library is not production-ready, do not use in production systems.
-
Do not transfer any ERC20 tokens to addresses generated by this sample code as it can cause loss of funds.
-
Crypto.org is not liable for any potential damage, loss of data/files arising from the use of the library.
1. Quick Guide
⬇️
1.0. Installing the library npm install @crypto-com/chain-jslib
🔐
1.1. Working with private keys and key pairs // Imports
const sdk = require("@crypto-com/chain-jslib");
const HDKey = sdk.HDKey;
const Secp256k1KeyPair = sdk.Secp256k1KeyPair;
const Bytes = sdk.utils.Bytes;
// Initializing the library configurations with TestNet config
const cro = sdk.CroSDK({ network: sdk.CroNetwork.Testnet });
// Generating a random mnemonic phrase
let randomPhrase = HDKey.generateMnemonic(12); // This returns a 12 words mnemonic phrase
// Import an HDKey from a previous mnemonic phrase
const importedHDKey = HDKey.fromMnemonic(
"curtain maid fetch push pilot frozen speak motion island pigeon habit suffer gap purse royal hollow among orange pluck mutual eager cement void panther"
);
// Derive a private key from an HDKey at the specified path
const privateKey = importedHDKey.derivePrivKey("m/44'/1'/0'/0/0");
// Getting a keyPair from a private key
const keyPair = Secp256k1KeyPair.fromPrivKey(privateKey);
🔖
1.2. Generating an address // Initializing the library configurations with TestNet config
const cro = sdk.CroSDK({ network: sdk.CroNetwork.Testnet });
// Import private key from hex key value
let privKey = Bytes.fromHexString(
"66633d18513bec30dd11a209f1ceb1787aa9e2069d5d47e590174dc9665102b3"
);
// Get keyPair from the imported private key
const importedKeyPair = Secp256k1KeyPair.fromPrivKey(privKey);
// Generate address from the imported key pair
let address = new cro.Address(importedKeyPair).account();
console.log(address); // tcro1sxe3v6gka3u8j7d2xhl8rmfyjnmggqlh6e82hq
✅
1.3. Build and Sign a transfer transaction // Imports
const sdk = require("@crypto-com/chain-jslib");
const HDKey = sdk.HDKey;
const Secp256k1KeyPair = sdk.Secp256k1KeyPair;
const Units = sdk.Units;
const Big = sdk.utils.Big;
// Initialize the library configurations with TestNet configs
const cro = sdk.CroSDK({ network: sdk.CroNetwork.Testnet });
const importedHDKey = HDKey.fromMnemonic(
"curtain maid fetch push pilot frozen speak motion island pigeon habit suffer gap purse royal hollow among orange pluck mutual eager cement void panther"
);
// Derive a private key from an HDKey at the specified path
const privateKey = importedHDKey.derivePrivKey("m/44'/1'/0'/0/0");
// Getting a keyPair from a private key
const keyPair = Secp256k1KeyPair.fromPrivKey(privateKey);
// Init Raw transaction
const rawTx = new cro.RawTransaction();
const feeAmount = new cro.Coin("6500", Units.BASE);
// Custom properties set
rawTx.setMemo("Hello Test Memo");
rawTx.setGasLimit("280000");
rawTx.setFee(feeAmount);
rawTx.setTimeOutHeight(341910);
const msgSend = new cro.bank.MsgSend({
fromAddress: "tcro165tzcrh2yl83g8qeqxueg2g5gzgu57y3fe3kc3",
toAddress: "tcro165tzcrh2yl83g8qeqxueg2g5gzgu57y3fe3kc3",
amount: new cro.Coin("1210", Units.BASE),
});
const signableTx = rawTx
.appendMessage(msgSend)
.addSigner({
publicKey: keyPair.getPubKey(),
accountNumber: new Big(41),
accountSequence: new Big(13),
})
.toSignable();
const signedTx = signableTx
.setSignature(0, keyPair.sign(signableTx.toSignDoc(0)))
.toSigned();
console.log(signedTx.getHexEncoded());

// Note that the result of signedTx.getHexEncoded() can be directly broadcasted to the network as a raw tx
📨
1.4. Sending transactions The SDK uses cosmjs stargate client to send transactions. For more information, check https://github.com/cosmos/cosmjs/tree/main/packages/stargate
// Imports
const sdk = require("@crypto-com/chain-jslib");
const cro = sdk.CroSDK({ network: sdk.CroNetwork.Testnet });
const client = await cro.CroClient.connect();
await client.broadcastTx(signedTx.encode().toUint8Array());
❓
1.5. Query the chain The SDK uses cosmjs queryclient to query the blockchain. For more information, check https://github.com/cosmos/cosmjs/tree/main/packages/stargate/src/queries
// Imports
const sdk = require("@crypto-com/chain-jslib");
const cro = sdk.CroSDK({ network: sdk.CroNetwork.Testnet });
const client = await cro.CroClient.connect();
const queryResult = await client.query().<module>.<operation>
// example client.query().bank.allBalances(<address>)
2. Cosmos Protobuf Definitions
Generate Cosmos Protobuf Definitions in JavaScript
-
Download Cosmos proto definitions folder
npm run get-proto
-
Generate definitions files in JavaScript
npm run define-proto
Update Supported Modules
-
To support more Cosmos modules, edit
lib/src/cosmos/v1beta1/scripts/predefine-proto.sh
and append the lines"$COSMOS_PROTO_DIR/bank/v1beta1/bank.proto" \ "$COSMOS_PROTO_DIR/bank/v1beta1/tx.proto" \
In this example it is adding
bank
module support, replace the paths with the modules and its protbuf files accordingly. -
edit
lib/src/cosmos/v1beta1/types/typeurls.ts
to add the protobuf type URLs to JS definitions mapping
3. API Documentation
The library API documentation can be generated by running
npm run docs:build
The resulting generated documentation will be created in the docs/dist
directory
