Features

Squid-py include the methods to make easy the connection with contracts deployed in different networks. This repository include also the methods to encrypt and decrypt information.

Prerequisites

Python 3.6

Quick-start

Install Squid:

pip install squid-py

The entry point into the Squid functionality is the Ocean class:

from squid_py.ocean import Ocean
ocean = Ocean('config.ini')

assert ocean.get_accounts()

Configuration

keeper.url points to an Ethereum RPC client. Note that Squid learns the name of the network to work with from this client.

keeper.path points to the folder with keeper contracts definitions. When you install the package, the artifacts are automatically picked up from the keeper-contracts Python dependency.

storage.path points to the local database file used for storing temporary information (for instance, pending service agreements).

In addition to the configuration file, you may use the following environment variables (override the corresponding configuration file values):

• KEEPER_PATH
• KEEPER_URL
• GAS_LIMIT
• AQUARIUS_URL

Development

1. Set up a virtual environment

2. Install requirements

   pip install -r requirements_dev.txt
   

3. Run Docker images. Alternatively, set up and run some or all of the corresponding services locally.

   docker-compose -f ./docker/docker-compose.yml up
   

   It runs an Aquarius node and an Ethereum RPC client. For details, read docker-compose.yml.

4. Create local configuration file

   cp config.ini config_local.ini
   

   config_local.ini is used by unit tests.

5. Copy keeper artifacts

   A bash script is available to copy keeper artifacts into this file directly from a running docker image. This script needs to run in the root of the project. The script waits until the keeper contracts are deployed, and then copies the artifacts.

   ./scripts/wait_for_migration_and_extract_keeper_artifacts.sh
   

   The artifacts contain the addresses of all the deployed contracts and their ABI definitions required to interact with them.

6. Run the unit tests

   python3 setup.py test
   

Code style

The information about code style in python is documented in this two links python-developer-guide and python-style-guide.

Testing

Automatic tests are setup via Travis, executing tox. Our test use pytest framework.
