Examples

You can invoke RPC on the chain and get responses. You need four things for invoking the chain:

• the API command
• the parameters (optional, could be null)
• a unique ID (automatically generated by Java using UUID)
• the name of the chain

Invoking without parameters

MultichainApiCommand getinfo = MultichainApiCommand.prepareCall("getinfo", null, UUID.randomUUID(), MultichainConfig.CHAIN_NAME);

Invoking with parameters

String[] params = new String[] {"root"};
MultichainApiCommand getstreaminfo = MultichainApiCommand.prepareCall("getstreaminfo", params, UUID.randomUUID(), MultichainConfig.CHAIN_NAME);
