rust-web3

Ethereum JSON-RPC multi-transport client. Rust implementation of Web3.js library.

Usage

First, add this to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] web3 = { git = "https://github.com/tomusdrw/rust-web3" }

Example

```rust

[tokio::main]

async fn main() -> web3::Result<()> { let transport = web3::transports::Http::new("http://localhost:8545")?; let web3 = web3::Web3::new(transport);

println!("Calling accounts.");
let mut accounts = web3.eth().accounts().await?;
println!("Accounts: {:?}", accounts);
accounts.push("00a329c0648769a73afac7f9381e08fb43dbea72".parse().unwrap());

println!("Calling balance.");
for account in accounts {
    let balance = web3.eth().balance(account, None).await?;
    println!("Balance of {:?}: {}", account, balance);
}

Ok(())

} ```

If you want to deploy smart contracts you have written you can do something like this (make sure you have the solidity compiler installed):

solc -o build --bin --abi contracts/*.sol

The solidity compiler is generating the binary and abi code for the smart contracts in a directory called contracts and is being output to a directory called build.

Futures migration

[ ] Get rid of parking_lot (replace with async-aware locks if really needed).
[ ] Consider getting rid of Unpin requirements.
[ ] WebSockets: TLS support
[ ] WebSockets: Reconnecting & Pings
[ ] Consider using tokio instead of async-std for ws.rs transport (issue with test).
[ ] Restore IPC Transport

General

[ ] More flexible API (accept Into<X>)
[x] Contract calls (ABI encoding; debris/ethabi)
[X] Batch Requests

Transports

[x] HTTP transport
[x] IPC transport
[x] WebSockets transport

Types

[x] Types for U256,H256,Address(H160)
[x] Index type (numeric, encoded to hex)
[x] Transaction type (Transaction from Parity)
[x] Transaction receipt type (TransactionReceipt from Parity)
[x] Block type (RichBlock from Parity)
[x] Work type (Work from Parity)
[X] Syncing type (SyncStats from Parity)

APIs

[x] Eth: eth_*
[x] Eth filters: eth_*
[x] Eth pubsub: eth_*
[x] net_*
[x] web3_*
[x] personal_*
[ ] traces_*

Parity-specific APIs

[ ] Parity read-only: parity_*
[ ] Parity accounts: parity_* (partially implemented)
[x] Parity set: parity_*
[ ] signer_*
[x] Own APIs (Extendable) rust let web3 = Web3::new(transport); web3.api::<CustomNamespace>().custom_method().wait().unwrap()

Installation on Windows

Currently, Windows does not support IPC, which is enabled in the library by default. To complile, you need to disable the IPC feature: web3 = { version = "0.11.0", default-features = false, features = ["http"] }
