@litentry/chain-types v2.1.0

chain-types

This library contains the Litentry Network API types and types definitions.

These types were auto generated using Polkadot.js Type Generation

How to use it

1. Install the package from NPM

   npm install @litentry/chain-types

2. Extend and decorate the API's types with:

   import { identityManagement } from '@litentry/chain-types';
   
   const api = await ApiPromise.create({
     provider: wsProvider,
     types: {
       ...identityManagement.types,
     },
   });

3. Import type definitions as needed:

   import type { LitentryIdentity } from '@litentry/chain-types';
   
   function myFunction(identity: LitentryIdentity) {
     // ...
   }

Versions

This package is distributed under two main tags: next and latest.

Versions in the pattern of x.x.x-next.x feature the most recent code version to work with tee-dev. E.g., 1.0.0-next.0. Once stable and once the Litentry Protocol is upgraded, the version will be tagged as latest and should be used against tee-prod. E.g., 1.0.0. You can find all versions on https://www.npmjs.com/package/@litentry/chain-types?activeTab=versions

Development

Quick start

1. Install dependencies

   pnpm install

2. Spin up an local NPM registry

   pnpm nx local-registry

3. Publish locally

   Follow the steps of Publish new versions. The step 1 can be skipped.

   As long as the local registry is up, any publishing will happen locally.

4. Run test and lint checks

   pnpm nx run chain-types:lint
   
   pnpm nx run chain-types:test

Publish new versions

1. Bump the version on package.json to for instance 1.0.0.

2. Update the latest documentation

   pnpm nx run chain-types:generate-doc

3. Build the project

   pnpm nx run chain-types:build

4. Publish the distribution files

   pnpm nx run chain-types:publish --ver 1.0.0 --tag latest

How to regenerate types

By default, the following commands will ran against the tee-dev Parachain Endpoint

pnpm nx run chain-types:download-meta
pnpm nx run chain-types:generate-defs
pnpm nx run chain-types:generate-meta

When to regenerate types

Regenerating types can be done at any time. It will pull metadata from the Parachain and create the corresponding interfaces, types and API metadata.

We may want to regenerate when any of these happen:

• The Parachain pallet changed.
• The Parachain TypeScript test type definitions changed.
• We added new type definitions in libs/chain-types/src/lib/interfaces.
• @polkadot/* dependencies got updated.
