CoLink Python SDK

CoLink Python SDK helps both application and protocol developers access the functionalities provided by the CoLink server.

• For application developers, CoLink Python SDK allows them to update storage, manage computation requests, and monitor the CoLink server status.
• For protocol developers, CoLink Python SDK allows them to write CoLink Extensions that extend the functionality of CoLink to support new protocols.

Requirements

• Python 3.9
• pytest

Getting started

You can use this SDK to run protocols, update storage, developing protocol operators. Here is a tutorial for you about how to start a greetings task between two users.

• Set up CoLink server. Please refer to colinkctl, and run the command below. For the following steps, we assume you are using the default settings in colinkctl.

colinkctl enable_dev_env

• Create two new terminals and start protocol operator for two users separately.

python3 examples/protocol_greetings.py \
  --addr http://127.0.0.1:8080  \
  --jwt $(sed -n "1,1p" ~/.colink/user_token.txt)

python3 examples/protocol_greetings.py \
  --addr http://127.0.0.1:8080 \
  --jwt $(sed -n "2,2p" ~/.colink/user_token.txt)

• Run task

python3 examples/user_run_task.py \
  http://127.0.0.1:8080 \
  $(cat ~/.colink/user_token.txt)

• Check the output in protocol operators' terminals
