neojsonrpc 0.1.1

A Python JSON-RPC client for the NEO blockchain.

NeoJsonRPC is a Python JSON-RPC client for the NEO blockchain. It implements the JSON-RPC methods of the API interface provided by NEO nodes (minus the methods requiring an opened wallet). The client also provides a high-level interface to invoke contract methods on the NEO blockchain.

Documentation

Online browsable documentation is available at https://neojsonrpc.readthedocs.io.

Requirements

Python 3.4+, Requests 2.0+.

Installation

To install NeoJsonRPC, please use pip (or pipenv) as follows:

$ pip install neojsonrpc

Basic usage

The first step to interact with the NEO JSON-RPC interface is to initialize a neojsonrpc.Client instance. The following examples respectively show how to get clients for the TestNet, the MainNet and an hypothetical local PrivNet:

>>> from neojsonrpc import Client
>>> testnet_client = Client.for_testnet()
>>> mainnet_client = Client.for_mainnet()
>>> privnet_client = Client(host='localhost', port='30333')

Then you can easily call some of the JSON-RPC methods provided by NEO nodes. Here are some examples:

>>> from neojsonrpc import Client
>>> client = Client.for_testnet()
>>> client.get_block_count()
973369
>>> client.get_contract_state('2c0fdfa9592814b0a938219e218e3a6b08615acd')
{'author': 'foobar',
 'code_version': '0.3',
# [...]
}

You can also invoke smart contract functions using the following methods:

>>> from neojsonrpc import Client
>>> client = Client.for_testnet()
>>> result = client.invoke_function('34af1b6634fcd7cfcff0158965b18601d3837e32', 'symbol', [])
{'gas_consumed': '0.217',
 'stack': [{'type': 'ByteArray', 'value': bytearray(b'TKN')}],
 'state': 'HALT, BREAK'}
>>> # Another convenient way to do the same operation is as follows:
>>> client.contract('34af1b6634fcd7cfcff0158965b18601d3837e32').symbol()
{'gas_consumed': '0.217',
 'stack': [{'type': 'ByteArray', 'value': bytearray(b'TKN')}],
 'state': 'HALT, BREAK'}
