whisky

This is a library for building off-chain code on Cardano. It is a cardano-cli-like wrapper on cardano-serialization-lib (equivalent to MeshJS’s lower-level APIs), supporting serious DApps’ backend on the Rust codebase. It has an active F11 proposal to support the development.

whisky is composed of 2 layers - the root layer sidan-csl-rs and the user-facing layer whisky. sidan-csl-rs composed of the core serialization logic with JSON-to-transaction pattern, compilable to wasm. whisky is the user-facing package that Rust Cardano developers can import directly for use.

Features

• Same API patterns with MeshJS - lower learning curve for developers.
• Integrated with TxPipe's uplc for off-node auto redeemer exUnits updates.
• Full inline documentation hosted at github

Getting Started

use whisky::{
    builder::TxBuilder,
    model::{Asset, UTxO},
};

async fn my_first_whisky_tx(
    recipient_address: &str,
    my_address: &str,
    inputs: Vec<UTxO>,
) -> String {
    let mut tx_builder = TxBuilder::new_core();
    tx_builder.tx_out(
        &recipient_address,
        vec![Asset::new_from_str("lovelace", "1000000")],
    )
    .change_address(my_address)
    .select_utxos_from(inputs.clone(), 5000000)
    .complete(None)
    .await;

    tx_builder.tx_hex()
}
