# Casper Go SDK
[](https://badge.fury.io/gh/make-software%2Fcasper-go-sdk)
[](https://github.com/make-software/casper-go-sdk/actions/workflows/quality-check.yml)
The Casper Go SDK provides a convenient way to interact with the Casper Network using Go.
## Get started
```shell
go get github.com/make-software/casper-go-sdk/v2/
```
## Base usage
### RPC client
Package rpc provides access to the exported methods of RPC Client and data structures where the response is serialized.
[See more details here](rpc/README.md)
Example:
```go
package main
import (
"context"
"fmt"
"net/http"
"github.com/make-software/casper-go-sdk/v2/casper"
)
func main() {
handler := casper.NewRPCHandler("http://:7777/rpc", http.DefaultClient)
client := casper.NewRPCClient(handler)
deployHash := "62972eddc6fdc03b7ec53e52f7da7e24f01add9a74d68e3e21d924051c43f126"
deploy, err := client.GetDeploy(context.Background(), deployHash)
if err != nil {
return
}
fmt.Println(deploy.Deploy.Hash)
}
```
### SSE
The SSE package provides basic functionality to work with Casper events that streamed by SSE server.
[See more details here](sse/README.md)
Example:
```go
package main
import (
"context"
"log"
"github.com/make-software/casper-go-sdk/v2/sse"
)
func main() {
client := sse.NewClient("http://:9999/events/main")
defer client.Stop()
client.RegisterHandler(
sse.DeployProcessedEventType,
func(ctx context.Context, rawEvent sse.RawEvent) error {
deploy, err := rawEvent.ParseAsDeployProcessedEvent()
if err != nil {
return err
}
log.Printf("Deploy hash: %s", deploy.DeployProcessed.DeployHash)
return nil
})
lastEventID := 1234
client.Start(context.TODO(), lastEventID)
}
```
### Work with Casper types
SDK implements base functionality that allows to work with native Casper types.
* High-level types declaration and the base functions to construct them. [details](types/README.md)
* Low level types (CLValue) with base functionality [details](types/clvalue/README.md)
* Identifiers, hashes and related functions [details](types/key/README.md)
* Cryptography public and private keys functionality [details](types/keypair/README.md)
Example of how to construct a native transfer transaction and push it to the network:
```go
package main
import (
"context"
"log"
"math/big"
"net/http"
"time"
"github.com/make-software/casper-go-sdk/v2/casper"
"github.com/make-software/casper-go-sdk/v2/rpc"
"github.com/make-software/casper-go-sdk/v2/types"
"github.com/make-software/casper-go-sdk/v2/types/clvalue"
)
func main() {
keys, _ := casper.NewED25519PrivateKeyFromPEMFile("./secret-key.pem")
pubKey := keys.PublicKey()
target, _ := casper.NewPublicKey("0106ed45915392c02b37136618372ac8dde8e0e3b8ee6190b2ca6db539b354ede4")
args := &types.Args{}
args.AddArgument("target", clvalue.NewCLPublicKey(target)).
AddArgument("amount", *clvalue.NewCLUInt512(big.NewInt(2500000000)))
payload, err := types.NewTransactionV1Payload(
types.InitiatorAddr{
PublicKey: &pubKey,
},
types.Timestamp(time.Now().UTC()),
1800000000000,
"casper-net-1",
types.PricingMode{
Limited: &types.LimitedMode{
GasPriceTolerance: 1,
StandardPayment: true,
PaymentAmount: 100000000,
},
},
types.NewNamedArgs(args),
types.TransactionTarget{
Native: &struct{}{},
},
types.TransactionEntryPoint{
Transfer: &struct{}{},
},
types.TransactionScheduling{
Standard: &struct{}{},
},
)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
transaction, err := types.MakeTransactionV1(payload)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
err = transaction.Sign(keys)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
rpcClient := rpc.NewClient(rpc.NewHttpHandler("http://:7777/rpc", http.DefaultClient))
res, err := rpcClient.PutTransactionV1(context.Background(), *transaction)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
log.Println("TransactionV1 submitted:", res.TransactionHash.TransactionV1)
}
```
## Advanced usage
It is crucial to have a clear understanding of the SDK structure and its functionalities in order to avoid common mistakes or misuse of functionality. The SDK consists of several packages that have strict dependencies.
If we were to present the packages in different layers, the structure would be as follows (in ascending order, from low to high):
1. Lowest layer: `cltype` and `keypair`
2. `key`
3. `clvalue`
4. `types`
5. Services `rpc` and `sse`
6. The highest level is a facade that provides popular interfaces through the `casper` package
The Dependency tree can help to visualise:

2. `clvalue` [doc](types/clvalue/README.md) | [examples](tests/types/cl_value/example_test.go)
3. `keypair` [doc](types/keypair/README.md) | [examples](tests/types/keypair/private_key_test.go)
4. `types` [doc](types/README.md) | [examples](tests/types/deploy_make_test.go)
5. `rpc` [doc](rpc/README.md) | [examples](tests/rpc/client_example_test.go)
6. `sse` [doc](sse/README.md) | [examples](tests/sse/example_test.go)
### Lint and test
