slate-node

Node client for Slate, initially for decoding transaction payloads

Usage

Decoding a transaction to validate inputs

The main decoding method is called using the decode method as follows

const slate = require('@figmentio/slate')

slate.decode('<network_code>', '<operation>', '<version>', '<transaction_type>', '<transaction_payload>')

Where (see list below for possible values for each field)

• <network_code>: name of the network
• <operation>: the operation the transaction is built to accomplish
• <version>: the Slate API version number used to generate the transaction
• <transaction_type>: the type of transaction being decoded
• <transaction_payload>: the raw, unsigned transction payload returned by Slate

Using a Solana staking Flow and the createStakeAccountTransacion transaction type, you would use the following:

const slate = require('@figmentio/slate')

slate.decode('solana', 'staking', 'v1', 'createStakeAccountTransaction', 'transaction-payload-goes-here')

Signing a transaction

This client can also be used to sign transaction payloads. This functionality can be called as follows where <signing_private_keys> is an array containing all the private keys required for signature and <transaction_payload> is the raw, unsigned transction payload returned by Slate.

const slate = require('@figmentio/slate')

await slate.sign('<network_code>', '<version>', '<transaction_payload>', `<signing_private_keys>`)

Versioning

We use semantic versioning to manage the version for this package.

Summary

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:

• MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes
• MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner
• PATCH version when you make backwards compatible bug fixes

Additional labels for pre-release and build metadata are available as extensions to the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH format.

Production release

To release slate-node to production we're packaging it through npmjs https://www.npmjs.com/package/@figmentio/slate

• First go to the package.json file and bump up the version according to semversion best practices
• go to Releases page on Github and click on "Draft a new release"
• use the same version/tag from the package.json
• the Release title should be the same as tag
• add some bullet-points that would describe the most important features/changes included in the release
• click "Publish release"

This will trigger an action to release the package to npmjs

Testing

Run the tests via:

yarn test
