Web3 Client

Introduction

Web3 Client is a powerful tool that allows you to interact with the Cartesi Machine. It enables you to send transactions, query data, and interact with your backend seamlessly.

Getting Started

Installation

To use our web3 client, follow these simple installation steps:

npm install @calindra/web3-client

Usage

1. Import and configure the Web3 library into your project:

   import { type CartesiClient, CartesiClientBuilder } from "@calindra/web3-client";
   
   const CARTESI_INSPECT_ENDPOINT="http://localhost:8080/inspect";
   
   // replace with the content of your dapp address (it could be found on dapp.json)
   const DAPP_ADDRESS="0x70ac08179605AF2D9e75782b8DEcDD3c22aA4D0C";
   
   const cartesiClient: CartesiClient = new CartesiClientBuilder()
    .withEndpoint(CARTESI_INSPECT_ENDPOINT)
    .withLogger({
      info: console.log,
      error: console.error,
    })
    .withDappAddress(DAPP_ADDRESS)
    .build();

2. When available set the provider and the signer

   cartesiClient.setProvider(provider);
   cartesiClient.setSigner(signer);

3. Start interacting with the Cartesi Machine:

   const payload = { foo: "bar" };
   
   // send an advance command
   cartesiClient.advance(payload);
   
   // send an inspect command
   cartesiClient.inspect(payload);

Examples

Here are some examples to get started:

Sending a Transaction

Example: Sending an advance input

const payload = { "action": "start_game", "game_id": "123" };
await cartesiClient.advance(payload);

Querying Data

Example: Getting the player

const payload = { "action": "show_player", "address": "0xf39Fd6e51aad88F6F4ce6aB8827279cffFb92266" };
const player = await cartesiClient.inspect(payload);

Future Work

• REST client interface.
