REMME JavaScript Client

An open source JS integration library for REMChain, simplifying the access and interaction with REMME nodes both public or permissioned.

How to use

1. Install and run REMME node with required REST API methods enabled.

You can check out how to do that at REMME core repo. Note: you can enable/disable methods by modifying REMME_REST_API_AVAILABLE_METHODS eviroment variable at the .env file.

2. Install the latest version of library to your JS project

Node

npm install remme

Yarn

yarn add remme

In the Browser

Use the prebuild dist/remme.min.js, or build using the [remme][repo] repository:

npm run build

Then include dist/remme.min.js in your html file. This will expose Remme on the window object.

3. Run methods of RemmeClient class to interract with REMME node.

4. Possible errors and solutions

Can't find name "Long"

Describe:
Our library use protobuf.js to work with protobufs. So for usage with Typescript you may get this error.
Solution:

1. You need to install @types/long.
   
2. You need to import Long before import remme library

Can't resolve 'crypto' | Can't resolve 'stream'

Describe:
Our library use crypto nodejs package for working with hash. So for usage with Typescript you may get this error.
Solution:
web3/web3.js#1555 (comment)

1. open node_modules/@angular-devkit/build-angular/src/angular-cli-files/models/webpack-configs/browser.js
2. Find "node: false", and change it to "node: {crypto: true, stream: true}"

Failed to minify

Describe:
Our library use sawtooth-sdk package. So for usage with React you may get this error if you build app.
Issue: hyperledger-archives/sawtooth-sdk-javascript#4
Solution:

1. npm run eject
2. npm i uglifyjs-webpack-plugin@1.3.0
3. In webpack.config.prod.js you need import this package and use it:

const UglifyJsPlugin = require('uglifyjs-webpack-plugin');
// ...

// Find string: "Minify the code."
// Comment or remove new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin with all configuration after this string.
// And provide next string:
new UglifyJsPlugin(),

Examples

Implement Remme client

const Remme = require("remme");
// import Remme from "remme";

const privateKeyHex = "7f752a99bbaf6755dc861bb4a7bb19acb913948d75f3b718ff4545d01d9d4f10";
const networkConfig = {
    nodeAddress: "localhost",
    nodePort: "8080",
    sslMode: false,
};
const remme = new Remme.Client({ privateKeyHex, networkConfig });

Tokens

const { RemmeFamilyName } = require("remme-utils");
const someAccountPublicKeyInHexFormat = "0306796698d9b14a0ba313acc7fb14f69d8717393af5b02cc292d72009b97d8759";
const someRemmeAddress = generateAddress(RemmeFamilyName.Account, someAccountPublicKeyInHexFormat);
const balance = await remme.token.getBalance(someRemmeAddress);
console.log(`Account ${someRemmeAddress} balance - ${balance} REM`);

const transactionResult = await remme.token.transfer(someRemmeAddress, 100);
console.log(`Sending tokens...BatchId: ${transactionResult.batchId}`);

const transactionCallback = async (err, result) => {
    if (err) return;
    console.log("token", result);
    const newBalance = await remme.token.getBalance(someRemmeAddress);
    console.log(`Account ${someRemmeAddress} balance - ${newBalance} REM`);
    transactionResult.closeWebSocket()
};

transactionResult.connectToWebSocket(transactionCallback);

Certificates

const certificateTransactionResult = await remme.certificate.createAndStore({
    commonName: "userName1",
    email: "user@email.com",
    name: "John",
    surname: "Smith",
    countryName: "US",
    validity: 360,
    serial: "some serial"
});

const certificateTransactionCallback = async (err, response) => {
    if (err) return;
    console.log("certificate", response);
    console.log(`Certificate was saved on REMchain at block number: ${response.block_number}`);
    const certificateStatus = await remme.certificate.check(certificateTransactionResult.certificate);
    console.log(`Certificate IsValid = ${certificateStatus.valid}`);
    certificateTransactionResult.closeWebSocket();
};

certificateTransactionResult.connectToWebSocket(certificateTransactionCallback);

Subscribing to Events

RemmeEvents is enums which describe all available events.

import { RemmeEvents } from "remme-web-socket-events";

remme.events.subscribe({
    events: RemmeEvents.SwapInit
}, (err, res) => {
    if (err) {
        console.log(err);
        return;
    }
    console.log(res);
})

Also we give a possibility to start listen events from previous block by providing last known block id

import { RemmeEvents } from "remme-web-socket-events";

remme.events.subscribe({
    events: RemmeEvents.SwapInit,
    lastKnownBlockId: "db19f0e3b3f001670bebc814e238df48cef059f3f0668f57702ba9ff0c4b8ec45c7298f08b4c2fa67602da27a84b3df5dc78ce0f7774b3d3ae094caeeb9cbc82"
    }, (err, res) => {
        if (err) {
          console.log(err);
          return;
        }
        console.log("events", res);
});
