casper-swift-sdk

Swift sdk library for interacting with a CSPR node.

What is casper-swift-sdk?

SDK to streamline the 3rd party Swift client integration processes. Such 3rd parties include exchanges & app developers.

System requirement

The SDK use Swift 5.0 and support device running IOS from 10.0, MacOS from 10.4.4, WatchOS from 5.3, tvOS from 12.3

Build and test from terminal

Go to the SDK root folder.

Build command in terminal, type this in terminal

swift build

Test command in terminal, type this in terminal

swift test

For a full build,test on the SDK, run the following command

swift package clean

swift build

swift test

Note: The project is built and tested successfully without error and warning in Xcode. There are 2 warnings in Github automated script for building or when you run with build script "swift build" in Terminal. The warnings comes from the external package https://github.com/leif-ibsen/SwiftECC.git, which refers to the unused result of 2 function calls, in detail the two warnings are:

SwiftECC/Sources/SwiftECC/Domain2/Domain2.swift, at line 196: result of call to 'add' is unused seq1.add(ASN1Integer(BInt(self.rp.k1)))
SwiftECC/Sources/SwiftECC/Domain2/Domain2.swift, at line 198: result of call to 'add' is unused seq1.add(ASN1Sequence()

The result maybe used for the next work of the external package. (More implementation or extenstion of the encrypting functions).

It does not effect the overall performance or cause any problem to the SDK.

Build and test from Xcode IDE

In order to build and test the SDK from Xcode, you need to have a Mac run MacOS and Xcode 13 (or above) installed.

To install Xcode 13 go to this link: https://developer.apple.com/xcode/

Once you have Xcode 13 or above installed in your Mac machine, download or clone the CasperSDKInSwift from Github. An easy way to clone the SDK is just to open XCode and choose "Clone an existing project" in the left panel like what it is in the image below

Enter the Github url (for example "https://github.com/hienbui9999/CasperSDKInSwift.git") for the Clone address, then hit "Clone"

When you have the SDK and all source code in your local machine, you can then Build or Test the SDK.

To Build the project hit "Product->Build" like this

To Test the project hit "Product->Test" like this

You can see log information by "View->Debug Area->Active Console" or just press the combination of Key "Cmd + Shift + C"

Information for Secp256k1, Ed25519 Key Wrapper and Put Deploy

Key wrapper specification:

The Key wrapper do the following work:(for both Secp256k1 and Ed25519):

(PrivateKey,PublicKey) generation
Sign message
Verify message
Read PrivateKey/PublicKey from PEM file
Write PrivateKey/PublicKey to PEM file

The key wrapper is used in account_put_deploy RPC method to generate approvals signature based on deploy hash.

Put deploy specification:

The put deploy RPC method implements the call "account_put_deploy". User needs to declare a deploy and assign the information for the deploy (header,payment,session,approvals). The following information is generated based on the deploy:

Deploy body hash - base on the serialization of deploy body, which is a string of payment serialization + deploy session serialization. Then use the blake2b256 hash over the generated serialized string to make the deploy body hash. The deploy body hash is an attribute of the deploy header.
Deploy hash: Use the blake2b256 hash over the header of the deploy.
Signature in deploy approvals is generated using the deploy hash using the key wrapper to sign over the deploy hash. You can use either Secp256k1 or Ed25519 to sign over the deploy hash, based on the account type of the deploy. If the deploy use account of type Secp256k1 then you have to sign with Secp256k1 key. If the deploy use account of type Ed25519 then you have to sign with Ed25519 key.
The whole deploy with full information is then serialized to a Json string and sent with a POST request to Casper main or test net, or localhost to call account_put_deploy RPC method.

To call the Put Deploy correctly, remember to do the following thing:

Know what your account type is, Ed25519 or Secp256k1.
Save your private key in 1 place that you can point to from code.
Choose correct path to private key to sign for the deploy hash in put deploy function.

Documentation for classes and methods

List of classes and methods

Flow of processing:

Instantiate one instance of the CasperSKD, which is defined in file "CasperSDK.swift". In the test section of this project we instantiate it from "CasperSDKInSwiftTests.swift" file and set parameter and call the methods from this file.

The call for each method will then send POST request and get data back from server, this process is done in "HttpHandler" file.

For processing the data back from server (as Json format), base on which method call, the corresponding class and functions will be call to catch and put data in proper data structure, which started from this code line "if self.methodCall == .chainGetStateRootHash {" in "HttpHandler" file.

Usage examples

Create a Client

To query a node, use the CasperSDK as the entry point. Instantiate CasperSDK with the URL address for calling Casper method, like this:

let casperSDK:CasperSKD = CasperSDK(url:"https://node-clarity-testnet.make.services/rpc");

You can change the method url by running this code line

casperSDK.setMethodUrl(url: "https://node-clarity-mainnet.make.services/rpc")

CLType primitives, Casper Domain Specific Objects, Serialization

CLType primitives:

Are built with Swift enumeration type, which consisted of all the value described in this page:

https://docs.rs/casper-types/1.4.6/casper_types/enum.CLType.html

CLValue

Is the value corresponding to the CLType. In Swift it is built with enumeration type also, with two attributes: CLType and the value of CLType

Casper Domain Specific Objects:

Are built with corresponding Swift classes, and in Entity folder

Serialization

The serialization for CLType, CLValue and Deploy (which consists of Deploy Header, Deploy Session, Deploy Payment, Approvals) is implemented based on the document at this address: https://casper.network/docs/design/serialization-standard#serialization-standard-state-keys

For CLType and CLValue, the serialization is done within class CLTypeSerializeHelper, which consists of two main methods:

CLTypeSerialize is for CLType serialization
CLValueSerialize is for CLValue serialization

For Deploy and Deploy related objects (Deploy Header, Deploy Session, Deploy Payment, Approvals) is done within file DeploySerialization.swift, in which there are classes for the serialization work

DeploySerialization class is for Deploy Serialization
DeployHeaderSerialization class is for Deploy Header Serialization
ExecutableDeployItemSerializaton class is for Session and Payment Serialization
DeployApprovalSerialization class is for Approval Serialization
