@harmony-js/account

This package provides a collection of apis to create accounts and wallets and sign using them. A wallet can hold multiple accounts and account is associated with a unique one address. This package also provides facilies to manage account keys.

Installation

npm install @harmony-js/account

Usage

Creating new account and display hex and bech32 (one) addresses

const account = new Account(); // or const account = Account.new()
console.log(account.checksumAddress);
console.log(account.bech32Address);

Creating new account using private key

const account = Account.add('45e497bd45a9049bcb649016594489ac67b9f052a6cdf5cb74ee2427a60bf25e');

Creating account using private key and custom messenger

const account = new Account(
  '45e497bd45a9049bcb649016594489ac67b9f052a6cdf5cb74ee2427a60bf25e',
  new Messenger(
    new HttpProvider('https://api.s0.b.hmny.io'),
    ChainType.Harmony,
    ChainID.HmyTestnet,
  ),
);

Creating account and setting custom messenger

// uses by default http://localhost:9500 as messenger
const account = new Account();
const customMessenger = new Messenger(
    new HttpProvider('https://api.s0.b.hmny.io'),
    ChainType.Harmony,
    ChainID.HmyTestnet,
  );

account.setMessenger(customMessenger);

Storing the account data to keystore file

const passphrase = '';
const account = new Account('45e497bd45a9049bcb649016594489ac67b9f052a6cdf5cb74ee2427a60bf25e');
account.toFile(passphrase).then(keystore => {
    console.log(keystore);
});

Fetching account from keystore file

const passphrase = '';
const keystore = '{"version":3,"id":"33363566-3564-4264-a638-363531666335","address":"7c41e0668b551f4f902cfaec05b5bdca68b124ce","crypto":{"ciphertext":"9b09380afb742838b32d9afc0ec1a3df35dbd7a41e3a160d08c07a4d0e79b855","cipherparams":{"iv":"1cd0e0522260eef055b9170f4825f4a0"},"cipher":"aes-128-ctr","kdf":"scrypt","kdfparams":{"salt":"bf35e36c45cccefcef73a4c900f41c682c94c28630d94d2d1f764760d245f30b","n":8192,"r":8,"p":1,"dklen":32},"mac":"25b4442972356bea02af57eba3b87803086d90b5e7657a57b528b89b1aa25f2f"}}';
const account = new Account();
account.fromFile(keystore, passphrase).then(account => {
    console.log(account.bech32Address);
});

Get the account balance

const account = new Account(
  '45e497bd45a9049bcb649016594489ac67b9f052a6cdf5cb74ee2427a60bf25e',
  new Messenger(
    new HttpProvider('https://api.s0.b.hmny.io'),
    ChainType.Harmony,
    ChainID.HmyTestnet,
  ),
);
account.getBalance().then(response => {
    console.log(response);
});

outputs { balance: '9126943763247054940484', nonce: 45, shardID: 0 }

Create a transaction and account, and sign it

const account = new Account(
  '45e497bd45a9049bcb649016594489ac67b9f052a6cdf5cb74ee2427a60bf25e',
  new Messenger(
    new HttpProvider('https://api.s0.b.hmny.io'),
    ChainType.Harmony,
    ChainID.HmyTestnet,
  ),
);
const { TransactionFactory } = require('@harmony-js/transaction');
const { Unit } = require('@harmony-js/utils');
const factory = new TransactionFactory();

const txn = factory.newTx({
  to: 'one166axnkjmghkf3df7xfvd0hn4dft8kemrza4cd2',
  value: new Unit(1).asOne().toWei(),
  // gas limit, you can use string
  gasLimit: '21000',
  // send token from shardID
  shardID: 0,
  // send token to toShardID
  toShardID: 0,
  // gas Price, you can use Unit class, and use Gwei, then remember to use toWei(), which will be transformed to BN
  gasPrice: new Unit('1').asGwei().toWei(),
});

account.signTransaction(txn).then((signedTxn) => {
  console.log(signedTxn);
});

Similarily staking transactions can be created and signed using account.

A wallet represents user wallet that can hold one or more user accounts.

Creating an empty wallet

const { Wallet } = require('@harmony-js/account')
const wallet = new Wallet();

Setting a messenger to be used to send wallet transactions

wallet.setMessenger(
  new Messenger(
    new HttpProvider('https://api.s0.b.hmny.io'),
    ChainType.Harmony,
    ChainID.HmyTestnet,
  ),
);

Create an empty wallet with messenger

const wallet = new Wallet(
  new Messenger(
    new HttpProvider('https://api.s0.b.hmny.io'),
    ChainType.Harmony,
    ChainID.HmyTestnet,
  ),
);

An account could be added to a wallet using different ways. Adding account using mnemonics

const mnemonics = 'horse distance dry brother pretty manual chicken mushroom town swim prize clutch';
const account = wallet.addByMnemonic(mnemonics);

Adding account using private key

const account = wallet.addByPrivateKey('0x676cd9773dd23a4c1d7f22767c61c7b6723cc6be37b078545f6e0e91433a23dd')

Adding account using keystore file

const keystore = '{"version":3,"id":"33363566-3564-4264-a638-363531666335","address":"7c41e0668b551f4f902cfaec05b5bdca68b124ce","crypto":{"ciphertext":"9b09380afb742838b32d9afc0ec1a3df35dbd7a41e3a160d08c07a4d0e79b855","cipherparams":{"iv":"1cd0e0522260eef055b9170f4825f4a0"},"cipher":"aes-128-ctr","kdf":"scrypt","kdfparams":{"salt":"bf35e36c45cccefcef73a4c900f41c682c94c28630d94d2d1f764760d245f30b","n":8192,"r":8,"p":1,"dklen":32},"mac":"25b4442972356bea02af57eba3b87803086d90b5e7657a57b528b89b1aa25f2f"}}';
const passphrase = '';
wallet.addByKeyStore(keystore, passphrase).then(account => {
    console.log(account.bech32Address);
});

Creating a new account using passphrase

const passphrase = 'harmony-one';
wallet.createAccount(passphrase).then(account => {
    console.log(account.bech32Address);
});

Get all accounts in the wallet

wallet.accounts.forEach(addr => {
    const account = wallet.getAccount(addr);
    console.log(account.bech32Address);
});

Set wallet signer when multiple accounts exists in the wallet

wallet.setSigner(signerAddr);

Sign transaction using wallet, will sign the transaction using the wallet signer

const txn = factory.newTx({
  to: 'one166axnkjmghkf3df7xfvd0hn4dft8kemrza4cd2',
  value: new Unit(1).asOne().toWei(),
  // gas limit, you can use string
  gasLimit: '21000',
  // send token from shardID
  shardID: 0,
  // send token to toShardID
  toShardID: 0,
  // gas Price, you can use Unit class, and use Gwei, then remember to use toWei(), which will be transformed to BN
  gasPrice: new Unit('1').asGwei().toWei(),
});

wallet.signTransaction(txn).then((signedTxn) => {
  console.log(signedTxn);
});

Similarily staking transactions can be signed using signStaking api.
