metronome-wallet-core

Core logic to develop an Ethereum Metronome wallet.

The core logic has a modular design where each module or plugin can emit events and expose methods to other plugins or the code client.

Quick start

Minimum Node version required is v12, v14 is recommended

const createCore = require('metronome-wallet-core')

const core = createCore()

const { api, emitter, events } = core.start()

// Listen for `events` on the `emitter`.
// Call `api` methods

core.stop()

API

• createCore(): Creates a wallet core instance.

• core.start({ config }): Initializes the core logic. Returns an object containing the exposed methods in api, an emitter to expose events and the list of emitted events in the events array. See below for details.

• core.stop(): stops everything.

Config

The configuration object has default properties as defined in src/defaultConfig.json.

Plugins (modules)

All plugins must follow this pattern:

function createPlugin () {
  return {
    start ({ config, eventBus, plugins }) {
      // Initialize
      return { events, name, api }
    },
    stop () {
      // Clean up
    }
  }
}

The start method will receive the core config, an eventBus emitter and an object containing all the other plugin's exposed methods. The return object shall contain a list of events that might be interesting to the core's user, the name of the plugin and an object containing all api methods exposed.

The eventBus is the same instance as core.start().emitter. All methods exposed by all plugins will be available to all other plugins and namespaced core.start().api using the name property.

The following plugins are bundled:

• eth: Provides connectivity with the Ethereum node.
• explorer: Provides notifications and keeps track of new blocks, transactions and events.
• metronome: Provides Metronome-specific functionality as interacting with the auctions, converter and token contracts.
• rates: Provides crypto-to-fiat exchange rates.
• tokens: Provides base ERC20 token functions.
• wallet: Provides base key/account management
