reflux-tx v0.2.4

reflux-tx

Reflux store & higher order component for monitoring Ethereum transactions in real-time.

Features

• Serverless (excluding eth client)
• Persistent - uses localstorage, retains state over page refreshes
• Associate arbitrary data with any transaction
• Detect chain reorgs and failed transactions
• States filterable by extra properties you can associate w txs
• Multiple chain support

TX States

Installation

npm install reflux-tx

or for the browserified version which exposes global refluxTX:

<script type='text/javascript' src='./dist/refluxTX.min.js'></script>

If using with webpack, you'll need these config additions to support localforage:

	module: {
		noParse: [ /localforage\/dist\/localforage.js/ ],
		loaders: [ {test: /localforage\/dist\/localforage.js/, loader: 'exports?localforage'} ]
	},
	resolve: {
		alias: { 'localforage': 'localforage/dist/localforage.js' }
	}
	

Usage

initialization

Before connecting to the store, you must first initialize it in a toplevel component with TXActions.connect(). This loads the genesis identifier required for storing any transaction data.

Available options

versions >= 0.2.0

Note: for version 0.2.0 and above, web3 is a required parameter for TXStore.connect so the provider option is removed

Example:

TXActions.connect(web3, {confirmCount: 10, bufferSize: 5})

versions < 0.2.0

Example:

TXActions.connect({provider: 'http://localhost:8545', confirmCount: 10, bufferSize: 5})

create a transaction

Add transaction to TXStore with TXActions.add(txInfo) where txInfo is an object or array of objects containing at least a {hash: '0x..'} property referencing a transaction hash. Any additional properties will be saved and can be used to filter out transactions by arbitrary data.

Example:

TXActions.add({
	hash: '0x30f42ba1f7d816d850fd172e128ffbacee7564e0cb41cc27c1e9af743aace6bc',
	txType: 'deposit',
	parentAddress: '0x26ac60acb581516b175010730a2bcee041bb0099'
});

view transactions

React components can use the TXComponent wrapper to inherit the latest blockNumber, timestamp (block.timesamp), and blockHash along with array representations of each transaction state as its properties.

Transaction state objects have 3 possible fields

Example:

	render() {
		<TXComponent filter={{txType: 'deposit'}} >
			<MyComponent />
		</TXComponent>
	}

Would be represented in MyComponent as

console.log(this.props.received)
[{info: {...}, receipt: {...}, data: {...}}, ...]

console.log(this.props.confirmed)
[{info: {...}, receipt: {...}, data: {...}}, ...]

console.log(this.props.pending)
[{info: {...}, data: {...}}, ...]

console.log(this.props.dropped)
[{info: {...}, data: {...}}, ...]

console.log(this.props.failed)
[{info: {...}, data: {...}}, ...]

console.log(this.props.blockNumber)
30000

Notes

reflux-tx will only subscribe to new block info when it's needed for tx confirmations. For that reason, a component's block properties (blockNumber, timestamp, blockHash) will update only while you have pending or received transactions matching the wrapping TXComponent's filter and keys.
