alberta-buck-core 0.1.0

Alberta Buck core platform (Python): the ChainSession API over anvil/testnets/pyrevm with expectation journaling, and the Foundry artifact loader

alberta-buck-core

The Python side of the Alberta Buck platform: one testing API over every EVM backend, with expectation checking and journaling.

• Web3Session -- the ChainSession API. Send, call and deploy against anvil, a public testnet, or in-process pyrevm with the same code. Every state-changing operation declares whether it is expected to succeed or revert, so expectation mismatches are first-class results rather than surprises.
• Journal -- an append-only JSONL record of every operation: tag, op, sender, expectation, outcome, gas, tx hash, block, error. Journals are auditable, diffable across backends and across languages (the JavaScript platform writes the same schema), and replayable.
• load_artifact -- contract artifacts from a repo checkout's out/ when there is one, falling back to the installed alberta-buck-contracts otherwise, so an installed package can deploy a world with no checkout.

Install

pip install alberta-buck-core

The distribution is prefixed; the import is not:

from buck_core import Web3Session, Expect, load_artifact

The compiled kernels are optional

buck_core.buck_math, buck_core.buck_identity, buck_core.buck_wallet and buck_core.buck_registry are shims that delegate to alberta-buck-kernel when it is installed. This package is deliberately a pure-Python wheel: keeping the binaries out means depending on the session API does not drag a per-platform wheel matrix behind it.

In a repo checkout the built .so sits beside the shim and CPython prefers the extension, so a freshly rebuilt kernel takes effect immediately.

Status

0.1.0, prototype. Unaudited software for a monetary system, published so the simulation and identity work can be reproduced and built on.
