Cardano Transactions
## Overview
This library provides a simple interface for building transactions on Cardano. It also
provides a small command-line interface for playing around in a terminal.
## Installation
### Building from source
1. download [haskell stack](https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/)
2. clone this repo: `git clone https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-transactions.git`
3. cd into the project: `cd cardano-transactions`
4. install: `stack install` (the binary will be in `~/.local/bin/cardano-tx`)
### Download binaries
Check the [release page](https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-transactions/releases) for binaries.
### Docker container
Run:
```sh
# build (run inside the project dir)
docker build -t inputoutput/cardano-transactions .
# simple run
docker run --rm inputoutput/cardano-transactions --help
# interactive shell (to pipe commands)
docker run --rm -ti --entrypoint sh inputoutput/cardano-transactions
```
The docker image is `alpine`, so tools can be installed as follows in an interactive shell:
```sh
apk add --no-cache nano git curl
```
## Payment
We call _Payment_ a simple UTxO transactions with no metadata, moving funds from a set of inputs to a set of outputs.
Payments are constructed from a small set of primitives, following the given state-machine:
### Example (Haskell)
Imports
```hs
{-# LANGUAGE NumericUnderscores #-}
{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}
import Data.Function
( (&) )
import Data.Maybe
( fromMaybe )
import Data.UTxO.Transaction.Cardano.Byron
( fromBase16
, fromBase58
, mkInput
, mkOutput
, mkSignKey
, testnetMagic
)
import qualified Data.ByteString as BS
import qualified Data.UTxO.Transaction as Tx
```
Constructing Inputs / Outputs
```hs
-- Say we want to construct a transaction from a known input to two
-- different addresses. Let's start by constructing the primitive types
-- for /Byron/ by using the smart-constructors from:
--
-- 'Data.UTxO.Transaction.Cardano.Byron'
let (Just input0) = mkInput 0 =<< fromBase16
"3b40265111d8bb3c3c608d95b3a0bf83461ace32d79336579a1939b3aad1c0b7"
let Just key0 = mkSignKey =<< fromBase16
"e0860dab46f13e74ab834142e8877b80bf22044cae8ebab7a21ed1b8dc00c155\
\f6b78eee2a5bbd453ce7e7711b2964abb6a36837e475271f18ff36ae5fc8af73\
\e25db39fb78e74d4b53fb51776d0f5eb360e62d09b853f3a87ac25bf834ee1fb"
let oneAda = 1_000_000
let (Just output0) = mkOutput oneAda =<< fromBase58
"2cWKMJemoBajc46Wu4Z7e6bG48myZWfB7Z6pD77L6PrJQWt9HZ3Yv7o8CYZTBMqHTPTkv"
let (Just output1) = mkOutput oneAda =<< fromBase58
"2cWKMJemoBaiLiNB8QpHKjkQhnPdQSyxaLb8JJFUQYpiVzgEJE59fN7V7StqnyDuDjHYJ"
```
Constructing The Transaction
```hs
-- Next, we can construct the transaction using the DSL provided by:
--
-- 'Data.UTxO.Transaction#MkPayment'
let eitherTx = Tx.empty testnetMagic
& Tx.addInput input0
& Tx.addOutput output0
& Tx.addOutput output1
& Tx.lock
& Tx.signWith key0
& Tx.serialize
```
Writing Binary Transaction to a File
```hs
-- Finally, let's export the binary transaction to a file, if we didn't screw
-- up the in the above example ^^"
case eitherTx of
Left e ->
fail $ show e
Right bytes ->
BS.writeFile "transaction.bin" bytes
```
### Example (CLI)
```shell
cardano-tx empty 764824073 \
| cardano-tx add-input 0 3b40265111d8bb3c3c608d95b3a0bf83461ace32d79336579a1939b3aad1c0b7 \
| cardano-tx add-output 42 Ae2tdPwUPEZETXfbQxKMkMJQY1MoHCBS7bkw6TmhLjRvi9LZh1uDnXy319f \
| cardano-tx lock \
| cardano-tx sign-with e0860dab46f13e74ab834142e8877b80bf22044cae8ebab7a21ed1b8dc00c155f6b78eee2a5bbd453ce7e7711b2964abb6a36837e475271f18ff36ae5fc8af73e25db39fb78e74d4b53fb51776d0f5eb360e62d09b853f3a87ac25bf834ee1fb \
| cardano-tx serialize
```
## About Library Dependencies
This library requires quite a few exotic dependencies from the cardano realm which aren't
necessarily on hackage nor stackage. The dependencies are listed in [stack.yaml](https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-transactions/blob/master/stack.yaml#L7-L33),
make sure to also include those for importing `cardano-transactions`.
## Documentation
API documentation is available [here](https://input-output-hk.github.io/cardano-transactions/haddock).
[End-to-end example](https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-transactions/wiki/How-to-submit-transaction-via-cardano-tx-CLI) of constructing transaction via `cardano-tx` and then submitting it.
