Pyhmy - Harmony's python utilities

This library only supports Python 3.6+

A Python library for interacting and working the Harmony blockchain and related codebases.

Full documentation is located on Harmony's GitBook (in progress).

Installation

pip install pyhmy

On MacOS: Make sure you have Python3 installed, and use python3 to install pyhmy

sudo pip3 install pathlib
sudo pip3 install pyhmy

Development

Clone the repository and then run the following:

make install

Running tests

Before you can run tests, you need the python dependencies (make install), docker and go installed to quickly run a local blockchain with staking enabled (detailed instructions here):

mkdir -p $(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/harmony-one
cd $(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/harmony-one
git clone https://github.com/harmony-one/mcl.git
git clone https://github.com/harmony-one/bls.git
git clone https://github.com/harmony-one/harmony.git
cd harmony
make test-rpc

Once the terminal displays === FINISHED RPC TESTS ===, use another shell to run the following tests

make test

Or directly with pytest (reference here for more info):

py.test tests

Releasing

You can release this library with the following command (assuming you have the credentials to upload):

make release

Usage

test_net = 'https://api.s0.b.hmny.io'				# this is shard 0
test_net_shard_1 = 'https://api.s1.b.hmny.io'
test_address = 'one18t4yj4fuutj83uwqckkvxp9gfa0568uc48ggj7'

main_net = 'https://rpc.s0.t.hmny.io'
main_net_shard_1 = 'https://rpc.s1.t.hmny.io'

accounts

from pyhmy import account
balance = account.get_balance(test_address, endpoint=test_net)				# on shard 0, in ATTO
total_balance = account.get_total_balance(test_address, endpoint=test_net)	# on all shards, in ATTO
balance_by_shard = account.get_balance_on_all_shards(test_address, endpoint=test_net)	# list of dictionaries with shard and balance as keys
genesis_balance = account.get_balance_by_block(test_address, block_num=0, endpoint=test_net)
latest_balance = account.get_balance_by_block(test_address, block_num='latest', endpoint=test_net)	# block_num can be a string 'latest', or 'pending', if implemented at the RPC level
account_nonce = account.get_account_nonce(test_address, block_num='latest', endpoint=test_net)

Transaction history

To get a list of hashes, use include_full_tx=False

first_100_tx_hashes = account.get_transaction_history(test_address, page=0, page_size=100, include_full_tx=False, endpoint=test_net)

To get the next 100 transactions, change the page

next_100_tx_hashes = account.get_transaction_history(test_address, page=1, page_size=100, include_full_tx=False, endpoint=test_net)

To get a list of full transaction details, use include_full_tx=True (see get_transaction_by_hash for the reply structure

first_3_full_tx = account.get_transaction_history(test_address, page=0, page_size=3, include_full_tx=True, endpoint=test_net)

To get newest transactions, use order='DESC'

last_3_full_tx = account.get_transaction_history(test_address, page=0, page_size=3, include_full_tx=True, order='DESC', endpoint=test_net)

To change the transaction type (SENT / RECEIVED / ALL), pass the tx_type parameter

first_100_received_tx_hashes = account.get_transaction_history(test_address, page=0, page_size=100, include_full_tx=False, tx_type='RECEIVED', endpoint=test_net)
Staking transaction history

To get a list of staking hashes, use include_full_tx=False

first_100_stx_hashes = account.get_staking_transaction_history(test_address, page=0, page_size=100, include_full_tx=False, endpoint=test_net)

To get the next 100 staking transactions, change the page

next_100_stx_hashes = account.get_staking_transaction_history(test_address, page=1, page_size=100, include_full_tx=False, endpoint=test_net)

To get a list of full staking transaction details, use include_full_tx=True (see get_transaction_by_hash for the reply structure

first_3_full_stx = account.get_staking_transaction_history(test_address, page=0, page_size=3, include_full_tx=True, endpoint=test_net)

To get newest staking transactions, use order='DESC'

last_3_full_stx = account.get_staking_transaction_history(test_address, page=0, page_size=3, include_full_tx=True, order='DESC', endpoint=test_net)

To change the staking transaction type (SENT / RECEIVED / ALL), pass the tx_type parameter

last_block_of_epoch5 = blockchain.epoch_last_block(block_num=5, test_net)
circulating_supply = Decimal(blockchain.get_circulating_supply(test_net))
premined = blockchain.get_total_supply(test_net)					# should be None?

Blocks
By block number

Fetch the barebones information about the block as a dictionary

latest_block = blockchain.get_block_by_number(block_num='latest', endpoint=test_net)

Fetch a block with full information (full_tx=True) for each transaction in the block

block = blockchain.get_block_by_number(block_num=9017724, full_tx=True, include_tx=True, include_staking_tx=True, endpoint=test_net)

Fetch a block and only staking transactions (include_tx=False, include_staking_tx=True) for the block

block = blockchain.get_block_by_number(block_num='latest', include_tx=False, include_staking_tx=True, endpoint=test_net)

Fetch block signer addresses (include_signers=True) as a list

signers = blockchain.get_block_by_number(block_num=9017724, include_signers=True, endpoint=test_net)['signers']

Or, alternatively, use the direct get_block_signers method:

signers = blockchain.get_block_signers(block_num=9017724, endpoint=test_net)

Fetch the public keys for signers

signers_keys = blockchain.get_block_signers_keys(block_num=9017724, endpoint=test_net)

Check if an address is a signer for a block

is_block_signer = blockchain.is_block_signer(block_num=9017724, address='one1yc06ghr2p8xnl2380kpfayweguuhxdtupkhqzw', endpoint=test_net)

Fetch the number of blocks signed by a particular validator for the last epoch

number_signed_blocks = blockchain.get_signed_blocks(address='one1yc06ghr2p8xnl2380kpfayweguuhxdtupkhqzw', endpoint=test_net)

Fetch a list of validators and their public keys for specific epoch number

validators = blockchain.get_validators(epoch=12, endpoint=test_net)
validator_keys = blockchain.get_validator_keys(epoch=12, endpoint=test_net)

Fetch number of transactions

tx_count = blockchain.get_block_transaction_count_by_number(block_num='latest', endpoint=test_net)

Fetch number of staking transactactions

stx_count = blockchain.get_block_staking_transaction_count_by_number(block_num='latest', endpoint=test_net)

Fetch a list of blocks using the block numbers

blocks = blockchain.get_blocks(start_block=0, end_block=2, full_tx=False, include_tx=False, include_staking_tx=False, include_signers=False, endpoint=test_net)
By block hash

Most of the functions described above can be applied for fetching information about a block whose hash is known, for example:

block_hash = '0x44fa170c25f262697e5802098cd9eca72889a637ea52feb40c521f2681a6d720'

block_with_full_tx = blockchain.get_block_by_hash(block_hash=block_hash, full_tx=True, include_tx=True, include_staking_tx=True, endpoint=test_net)
block_with_only_staking_tx = blockchain.get_block_by_hash(block_hash=block_hash, include_tx=False, include_staking_tx=True, endpoint=test_net)
signers = blockchain.get_block_by_hash(block_hash=block_hash, include_signers=True, endpoint=test_net)['signers']
tx_count = blockchain.get_block_transaction_count_by_hash(block_hash=block_hash, endpoint=test_net)
stx_count = blockchain.get_block_staking_transaction_count_by_hash(block_hash=block_hash, endpoint=test_net)

Validator class

Instantiate a validator object and load it from the chain

from pyhmy.validator import Validator
validator = Validator(validator_addr)
validator.load_from_blockchain(test_net)

Create a new validator object and load from dictionary

from pyhmy.numbers import convert_one_to_atto
validator = Validator('one1a0x3d6xpmr6f8wsyaxd9v36pytvp48zckswvv9')

        'min-self-delegation': convert_one_to_atto(10000),
        'amount': convert_one_to_atto(10001),
        'max-rate': '0.9',

        'max-total-delegation': convert_one_to_atto(40000)
    }
validator.load(info)

Sign a validator creation transaction

signed_create_tx_hash = validator.sign_create_validator_transaction(
            nonce = 2,
            gas_price = 1,
            gas_limit = 100,
            private_key = '4edef2c24995d15b0e25cbd152fb0e2c05d3b79b9c2afd134e6f59f91bf99e48',
            chain_id = None).rawTransaction.hex()

To edit validator, change its parameters using the setter functions, for example, validator.set_details, except the rate, bls_keys_to_add and bls_keys_to_remove which can be passed to the below function:

signed_edit_tx_hash = validator.sign_edit_validator_transaction(
            nonce = 2,
            gas_price = 1,
            gas_limit = 100,
            rate = '0.06',
            bls_keys_to_add = "0xb9486167ab9087ab818dc4ce026edb5bf216863364c32e42df2af03c5ced1ad181e7d12f0e6dd5307a73b62247608611",
            bls_keys_to_remove = '0xb9486167ab9087ab818dc4ce026edb5bf216863364c32e42df2af03c5ced1ad181e7d12f0e6dd5307a73b62247608612',

stx_from_block_number = transaction.get_staking_transaction_by_block_number_and_index(9018043, tx_index=0, endpoint=test_net)
Cross shard transactions
cx_hash = '0xd324cc57280411dfac5a7ec2987d0b83e25e27a3d5bb5d3531262387331d692b'
cx_receipt = transaction.get_cx_receipt_by_hash(cx_hash, main_net_shard_1)	# the shard which receives the tx
tx_resent = transaction.resend_cx_receipt(cx_hash, main_net)				# beacon chain
Sending transactions

Sign it with your private key and use send_raw_transaction

from pyhmy import signing
tx = {
'chainId': 2,
'from': 'one18t4yj4fuutj83uwqckkvxp9gfa0568uc48ggj7',
'gas': 6721900,
'gasPrice': 1000000000,
'nonce': 6055,
'shardID': 0,
'to': 'one1ngt7wj57ruz7kg4ejp7nw8z7z6640288ryckh9',
'toShardID': 0,
'value': 500000000000000000000
}
transaction.send_raw_transaction(signing.sign_transaction(tx, '01F903CE0C960FF3A9E68E80FF5FFC344358D80CE1C221C3F9711AF07F83A3BD').rawTransaction.hex(), test_net)

A similar approach can be followed for staking transactions

from pyhmy import staking_structures, staking_signinge
tx = {
  'chainId': 2,
 'delegatorAddress': 'one18t4yj4fuutj83uwqckkvxp9gfa0568uc48ggj7',
 'directive': staking_structures.Directive.CollectRewards,
 'gasLimit': 6721900,
 'gasPrice': 1,
 'nonce': 6056
}
transaction.send_raw_staking_transaction(staking_signing.sign_staking_transaction(tx, private_key = '01F903CE0C960FF3A9E68E80FF5FFC344358D80CE1C221C3F9711AF07F83A3BD').rawTransaction.hex(), test_net)

Contracts

from pyhmy import contract
from pyhmy.util import convert_one_to_hex
contract_addr = 'one1rcs4yy4kln53ux60qdeuhhvpygn2sutn500dhw'

Call a contract without saving state

from pyhmy import numbers
result = contract.call(convert_one_to_hex(contract_addr), 'latest', value=hex(int(numbers.convert_one_to_atto(5)))
, gas_price=hex(1), gas=hex(100000), endpoint=test_net)

Estimate gas required for a smart contract call

estimated_gas = contract.estimate_gas(convert_one_to_hex(contract_addr), endpoint=test_net)

Fetch the byte code of the contract

byte_code = contract.get_code(convert_one_to_hex(contract_addr), 'latest', endpoint=test_net)

Get storage in the contract at key

storage = contract.get_storage_at(convert_one_to_hex(contract_addr), key='0x0', block_num='latest', endpoint=test_net)

Calling a function on a contract needs the contract ABI. The ABI can be obtained by compiling the contract.

from web3 import Web3
from web3 import providers
from pyhmy.util import convert_one_to_hex
contract_abi = '[{"constant":true,"inputs":[],"name":"manager","outputs":[{"name":"","type":"address"}],"payable":false,"stateMutability":"view","type":"function"},{"constant":false,"inputs":[],"name":"pickWinner","outputs":[],"payable":false,"stateMutability":"nonpayable","type":"function"},{"constant":true,"inputs":[],"name":"getPlayers","outputs":[{"name":"","type":"address[]"}],"payable":false,"stateMutability":"view","type":"function"},{"constant":false,"inputs":[],"name":"enter","outputs":[],"payable":true,"stateMutability":"payable","type":"function"},{"constant":true,"inputs":[{"name":"","type":"uint256"}],"name":"players","outputs":[{"name":"","type":"address"}],"payable":false,"stateMutability":"view","type":"function"},{"inputs":[],"payable":false,"stateMutability":"nonpayable","type":"constructor"}]'
w3 = Web3(providers.HTTPProvider(test_net))
lottery = w3.eth.contract(abi=contract_abi, address=convert_one_to_hex('one1rcs4yy4kln53ux60qdeuhhvpygn2sutn500dhw'))
lottery.functions.getPlayers().call()

To actually participate in a contract, you can sign a transaction from your account to it.

from pyhmy import signing
contract_addr = 'one1rcs4yy4kln53ux60qdeuhhvpygn2sutn500dhw'
tx = {
 'chainId': 2,
 'from': 'one18t4yj4fuutj83uwqckkvxp9gfa0568uc48ggj7',
 'gas': 6721900,
 'gasPrice': 1000000000,
 'nonce': 6054,
 'shardID': 0,
 'to': contract_addr,
 'toShardID': 0,
 'value': 500000000000000000000
}
tx_hash = transaction.send_raw_transaction(signing.sign_transaction(tx, '01F903CE0C960FF3A9E68E80FF5FFC344358D80CE1C221C3F9711AF07F83A3BD').rawTransaction.hex(), test_net)

To deploy a contract, sign a transaction from your account without a to field and with the byte code as data and send it.

from pyhmy import signing
from pyhmy import transaction

Signing transactions

from pyhmy import signing

Create a transaction_dict with the parameters, and supply your private key to sign (but not submit) a transaction. A signed transaction can be submitted using transaction.sendRawTransaction.

transaction_dict = {
        'nonce': 2,
        'gasPrice': 1,
        'gas': 100,             # signing.py uses Ether, which by default calls it gas
        'to': '0x14791697260e4c9a71f18484c9f997b308e59325',
        'value': 5,
        'shardID': 0,
        'toShardID': 1,
        'chainId': 'HmyMainnet'
    }
signed_tx = signing.sign_transaction(transaction_dict, private_key = '4edef2c24995d15b0e25cbd152fb0e2c05d3b79b9c2afd134e6f59f91bf99e48')
signed_hash = signed_tx.rawTransaction.hex()

For a transaction with is Ethereum-like, the shardID and toShardID are optional, which implies that the transaction is not cross-shard.

transaction_dict = {
        'nonce': 2,
        'gasPrice': 1,
        'gas': 100,             # signing.py uses Ether, which by default calls it gas
        'to': '0x14791697260e4c9a71f18484c9f997b308e59325',
        'value': 5,
    }
signed_tx = signing.sign_transaction(transaction_dict, private_key = '4edef2c24995d15b0e25cbd152fb0e2c05d3b79b9c2afd134e6f59f91bf99e48')
signed_hash = signed_tx.rawTransaction.hex()

The chainId parameter is also optional, and according to Ethereum, it should not be passed if "you want a transaction that can be replayed across networks." A full list of the possible values of chainId is provided below. You can pass either the str or the int. The RPC API may, however, reject the transaction, which is why it is recommended to pass either 1 or 2 for mainnet and testnet respectively.

Default = 0,
EthMainnet = 1,
Morden = 2,
Ropsten = 3,
Rinkeby = 4,
RootstockMainnet = 30,
RootstockTestnet = 31,
Kovan = 42,
EtcMainnet = 61,
EtcTestnet = 62,
Geth = 1337,
Ganache = 0,
HmyMainnet = 1,
HmyTestnet = 2,
HmyLocal = 2,
HmyPangaea = 3,

Signing staking transactions

from pyhmy import staking_structures, staking_signing

To sign a transaction to collect rewards, supply the dictionary containing the delegatorAddress and the private key.

transaction_dict = {
    'directive': staking_structures.Directive.CollectRewards,
    'delegatorAddress': 'one1a0x3d6xpmr6f8wsyaxd9v36pytvp48zckswvv9',
    'nonce': 2,
    'gasPrice': 1,
    'gasLimit': 100,
}
signed_tx = staking_signing.sign_staking_transaction(transaction_dict, private_key = '4edef2c24995d15b0e25cbd152fb0e2c05d3b79b9c2afd134e6f59f91bf99e48')

To sign a transaction to delegate or undelegate, supply the dictionary containing the delegatorAddress, the validatorAddress, the amount to delegate or undelegate, and the private key.

transaction_dict = {
        'directive': staking_structures.Directive.Delegate,
        'delegatorAddress': 'one1a0x3d6xpmr6f8wsyaxd9v36pytvp48zckswvv9',
        'validatorAddress': 'one1xjanr7lgulc0fqyc8dmfp6jfwuje2d94xfnzyd',
        'amount': 5,
        'nonce': 2,
        'gasPrice': 1,
        'gasLimit': 100,
    }
signed_tx = staking_signing.sign_staking_transaction(transaction_dict, '4edef2c24995d15b0e25cbd152fb0e2c05d3b79b9c2afd134e6f59f91bf99e48')
transaction_dict = {
        'directive': staking_structures.Directive.Undelegate,
        'delegatorAddress': 'one1a0x3d6xpmr6f8wsyaxd9v36pytvp48zckswvv9',
        'validatorAddress': 'one1xjanr7lgulc0fqyc8dmfp6jfwuje2d94xfnzyd',
        'amount': 5,
        'nonce': 2,
        'gasPrice': 1,
        'gasLimit': 100,
    }
signed_tx = staking_signing.sign_staking_transaction(transaction_dict, '4edef2c24995d15b0e25cbd152fb0e2c05d3b79b9c2afd134e6f59f91bf99e48')

For validator-related transactions, see the section on the Validator class.

Keeping your private key safe

You need eth-keyfile installed

pip install eth-keyfile

In a Python shell, you can save or load the key into / from a key file.

import eth_keyfile
from eth_utils import to_bytes, to_hex
import json
keyfile = eth_keyfile.create_keyfile_json(to_bytes(hexstr='01F903CE0C960FF3A9E68E80FF5FFC344358D80CE1C221C3F9711AF07F83A3BD'), b'password')
with open('keyfile.json', 'w+') as outfile:
    json.dump(keyfile, outfile)

private_key = to_hex(eth_keyfile.extract_key_from_keyfile('keyfile.json', b'password'))[2:].upper()
