Dragonchain .Net SDK

Talk to your dragonchain.

Installation

First, install NuGet. Then, install Dragonchain .Net SDK from the package manager console:

Pre -release

PM> Install-Package dragonchain-sdk-dotnet -Version 1.0.0-alpha

Examples

Import

using dragonchain_sdk;
using dragonchain_sdk.Framework.Web;

GetBlock

var myDcId = "3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130";
var client = new DragonchainClient(myDcId);

const call = await client.getBlock('block-id-here');

try 
{
    var block = await client.GetBlock("block-id-here");
    var block = call.Response;
    Console.WriteLine("Successful call!");
    Console.WriteLine($"Block: {block.Header.BlockId}");
}
catch(DragonchainApiException exception)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Something went wrong!");
    Console.WriteLine($"HTTP status code from chain: {exception.Status}");
    Console.WriteLine($"Error response from chain: {exception.Message}");
}

QueryTransactions

var searchResult = await client.QueryTransactions("tag=MyAwesomeTransactionTag");
var totalTransactionsCount = searchResult.Response.Total;
var transactions = searchResult.Response.Results;

Create Transaction Type

var transactionTypeSimpleResponse = await _dragonchainLevel1Client.CreateTransactionType("NewType", 
    new List<CustomIndexStructure>
    {
        new CustomIndexStructure{ Key ="SomeKey", Path="SomePath" }
    }
});

Create a Transaction

var transactionCreateResponse = await _dragonchainLevel1Client.CreateTransaction("apple", new {}, "pottery", "http://mycallbackUrl");

Inject into Asp.net Core Web App

Program.cs

Configure logging and configuration choices.

public class Program
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        BuildWebHost(args).Run();
    }

    public static IWebHost BuildWebHost(string[] args) =>
        WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
            .UseSerilog()
            .ConfigureAppConfiguration((hostingContext, config) =>
            {
                config.SetBasePath(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory());
                config.AddJsonFile("config.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true);
            })
            .UseStartup<Startup>()
            .Build();
}

Startup.cs

Add the dragonchain client service using the ConfigureServices method

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    services.AddSingleton<IDragonchainClient, DragonchainClient>();
    services.AddMvc();            
}

Controller.cs

Consume the service in controllers or middleware

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    private IDragonchainClient _client;

    public HomeController(IDragonchainClient client)
    {
        _client = client;
    }

    public IActionResult Index()
    {
        var transactionTypes = _client.ListTransactionTypes();
        return View(transactionTypes);
    }

Configuration

In order to use this SDK, you need to have an Auth Key as well as an Auth Key ID for a given dragonchain. This can be loaded into the sdk in various ways using an IConfiguration provider:

1. The environment variables AUTH_KEY and AUTH_KEY_ID can be set with the appropriate values
2. Write a json, ini or xml file and use the required Configuration Builder extension like so:

Environment Variables

  var config = new ConfigurationBuilder()
    .AddEnvironmentVariables()
    .Build();    
  var client = new DragonchainClient(myDcId, config);

Json

  var config = new ConfigurationBuilder()
    .AddJsonFile("appsettings.json")
    .Build();    
  var client = new DragonchainClient(myDcId, config);

{
  "dragonchainId": "3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130",
  "AUTH_KEY": "MyAuthKey",
  "AUTH_KEY_ID": "MyAuthKeyId"
 }

or

{
 "dragonchainId": "3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130",
 "3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130": {
   "AUTH_KEY": "MyAuthKey",
   "AUTH_KEY_ID": "MyAuthKeyId"
 }
}

INI

  var config = new ConfigurationBuilder()
    .AddIniFile("config.ini")
    .Build();    
  var client = new DragonchainClient(myDcId, config);

dragonchainId=3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130
AUTH_KEY=MyAuthKey
AUTH_KEY_ID=MyAuthKeyId

or

dragonchainId=3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130
[3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130]
AUTH_KEY=MyAuthKey
AUTH_KEY_ID=MyAuthKeyId

XML

  var config = new ConfigurationBuilder()
    .AddXmlFile("config.xml")
    .Build();    
  var client = new DragonchainClient(myDcId, config);

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
  <dragonchainId>3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130</dragonchainId>
  <AUTH_KEY>MyAuthKey</AUTH_KEY>
  <AUTH_KEY_ID>MyAuthKeyId</AUTH_KEY_ID>
</configuration>

or

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>  
  <dragonchainId>3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130</dragonchainId>
  <3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130>
    <AUTH_KEY>MyAuthKey</AUTH_KEY>
    <AUTH_KEY_ID>MyAuthKeyId</AUTH_KEY_ID>  
  </3f2fef78-0000-0000-0000-9f2971607130>
</configuration>

Logging

In order to get the logging output of the sdk, a logger must be set (by default all logging is thrown away).

In order to set the logger, simply inject a Microsoft.Extensions.Logging implementation. Read here for more information Microsoft Logging Docs. For example, if you just wanted to log to the console you can set the logger like the following:

var webHost = new WebHostBuilder()        
  .ConfigureLogging((hostingContext, logging) =>
  {
    logging.AddConsole();            
  })
  .UseStartup<Startup>()
  .Build();

You can also create your own implemnations of ILogger

var logger = new MyLogger();
var client = new DragonchainClient(myDcId, config, logger);
