Introduction

tons (TON Stash) is an Open Source cross-platform wallet application and command-line interface to maintain any type of wallet on the TON network on desktops and servers. Works with Windows/Mac/Linux.

keystore - is a file encrypted by a user's password. It is used to store private keys from user's wallets.

whitelist - is a file which stores all user's contacts. User have to use it to transfer coins from their wallets to other addresses.

dapp - allows user to connect to TON blockchain. See config section to understand how to set it up properly.

Create .tons folder in the current directory

$ tons init

Set TON network

$ tons config --network testnet

Create a keystore and set it as a current keystore

$ tons keystore new myFirstKeystore
Password []:

$ tons config tons.keystore_name myFirstKeystore

  -h, --help     Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  config     Control config parameters (check README.md for all fields info)
  contract   Operate with contracts
  dev        Development tools
  init       Initialize .tons workdir in a current directory
  keystore   Operate with keystores
  wallet     Operate with wallets
  whitelist  Operate with whitelist contacts

$ tons wallet -h
...

Config

tons uses the following file structure:

.tons
├── config.yaml
├── whitelist.json
├── keystores
│   ├── *.keystore

Every time tons reads settings in the way where a next config alters previous one

1. global: ~/.config/tons/
2. local: ./..N/.tons/ (where N {0, inf} any number of subdirectories) Note: to init tons locally run 'tons init' command
3. env: export TONS_CONFIG_PATH=~/your/own/path/.tons/

All config.yaml parameters

Name	Description
tons.workdir	directory where whitelist and keystores are stored
tons.keystore_name	name of the keystore a person wants to use
tons.provider	provider to access the TON blockchain
tons.default_wallet_version	the version that will be used during tons wallet create cmd
tons.warn_if_outdated	every run checks whether there is a new version of tons pkg
provider.dapp.api_key	api key for the dapp (TODO: type bot's name)
provider.dapp.network	TON network to use (mainnet/testnet)

List parameters of all configs (global/local/env)

$ tons config --list
...
~/local/path/.tons/config.yaml  tons.keystore_name=dev.keystore
...
~/.config/.tons/config.yaml tons.keystore_name=global.keystore

List all values of final altered config

$ tons config --current-setup
tons.workdir=/Users/username/.config/.tons
tons.keystore_name=dev.keystore
tons.provider=dapp
tons.default_wallet_version=v3r2
tons.warn_if_outdated=True
provider.dapp.api_key=YOUR_API_KEY
provider.dapp.network=testnet

Change the network

$ tons config --network testnet

Set value of a parameter

$ tons config --global tons.keystore_name myKeystore2

Unset value of a parameter

$ tons config --local tons.keystore_name --unset

Get value of a parameter

$ tons config tons.keystore_name
dev.keystore

Keystore

Keystore is encrypted by user's password. There are several options to work with a password:

1. Runs a command and enter it through input

$ tons keystore new
Password []: 

2. Runs a command with a --password flag

$ tons keystore new --password admin123
Password []: 

3. Set up environment variable TONS_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD

$ export TONS_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD=admin123
$ tons keystore new

List all keystores in a tons.workdir

$ tons keystore list
dev.keystore
test.keystore

Create a new keystore

$ tons keystore new myNewKeystore
Password []: 

Backup a keystore (password is used to export private keys)

$ tons keystore backup myNewKeystore ./myNewKeystore.backup
Password []: 

Restore a keystore (password is used for a new keystore)

$ tons keystore restore keystoreFromBackup ./myOldKeystore.backup
Password []: 

# to restore keystore from ton-cli's keystore add flag --from-ton-cli
$ tons keystore restore keystoreFromBackup ./ton-cli.backup --from-ton-cli
Password []:

Development

A person can deploy smart-contracts using tons and tonsdk. There are three options: send-boc, send-internal and send-external.

Send internal allows a user to send any internal message using any of their wallets

$ tons dev send-internal ./scripts/deploy.py deploy_through_internal MY_WALLET_NAME 0.1 --wait

# ./scripts/deploy.py example. 
# Function must receive WalletContract and  return (str, Optional[Cell], Optional[Cell]) values.

from typing import Optional

from tonsdk.contract.wallet import WalletContract
from tonsdk.boc import Cell
from tonsdk.contract.token.ft import JettonMinter


def deploy_through_internal(wallet: WalletContract) -> (str, Optional[Cell], Optional[Cell]):
    minter = JettonMinter(admin_address=wallet.address,
                          jetton_content_uri="URL",
                          jetton_wallet_code_hex='CODE')

    return minter.address.to_string(), minter.create_state_init()["state_init"], None

Send external allows a user to create an external message using tonsdk and send it to the TON blockchain

$ tons dev send-external ./scripts/deploy.py deploy_through_external --wait

# ./scripts/deploy.py example. 
# Function must receive nothing and return (str, Cell) values.
from tonsdk.contract.wallet import WalletContract, WalletVersionEnum, Wallets
from tonsdk.boc import Cell


def deploy_through_external() -> (str, Cell):
    wallet_workchain = 0
    wallet_version = WalletVersionEnum.v3r2
    wallet_mnemonics = "YOUR 24 ... WORDS".split(" ")

    _mnemonics, _pub_k, _priv_k, wallet = Wallets.from_mnemonics(
        wallet_mnemonics, wallet_version, wallet_workchain)
    return wallet.address.to_string(), wallet.create_init_external_message()["message"]

Note: to deploy a wallet one can use '$ tons wallet init WALLET_NAME'

Send boc allows to send a .boc file to the TON blockchain

$ tons dev send-boc ./generated-through-fif.boc --wait

integrations

Example of automatic salary payment, you may use cron to run pay_salary.sh

$ cat employee.info
employee1 EQDvtizebIVTGYASXgjYX5sHfkGLW8aFTa7wfYCyARIpARB0 10
employee2 EQA-Ri7Oftdjq--NJmuJrFJ1YqxYk6t2K3xIFKw3syhIUgUe 20
employee3 EQCNLRRZkvoqAW6zwYyy_BVwOBcMnwqvyrSpm8WnACdzXuu3 15.5

$ cat pay_salary.sh
cd ~/team_workspace/ton/
source venv/bin/activate
tons config tons.keystore_name myKeystore

input="./employees.info"
while IFS= read -r line
do
    stringarray=($line)
    name=${stringarray[0]}
    addr=${stringarray[1]}
    salary=${stringarray[2]}

    tons wallet transfer salaryWallet $name $salary --wait
done < "$input"

toncli

toncli uses deploy wallet with the following params:

• version v3r2
• subwallet-id 0
• workchain 0

First a developer should create a tons wallet

$ tons wallet create toncli-deployer -v v3r2 -w 0 -id 0 --save-to-whitelist toncli-deployer

Then get the path of toncli deploy wallet

$ python
>>> from appdirs import user_config_dir
>>> import os
>>> user_config_dir("toncli")  # output may be different
/Users/username/Library/Application Support/toncli
>>> os.path.join(user_config_dir("toncli"), "wallet", "build")  # output may be different
/Users/username/Library/Application Support/toncli/wallet/build

Finally, replace toncli default wallet with the tons one

$ tons wallet to-addr-pk toncli-deployer '/Users/username/Library/Application Support/toncli/wallet/build'
$ cd '/Users/username/Library/Application Support/toncli/wallet/build'
$ mv contract.pk backup_old.pk && mv contract.addr backup_old.addr
$ mv toncli-deployer.pk contract.pk && mv toncli-deployer.addr contract.addr
