EOSIO API to interact with EOSIO blockchain servers

EOSIO API 4 Rust

What is it?

An API to allow Rust services to communicate with a EOSIO node.

What is it not?

This is not an API to allow you to write contracts in rust. (see eosio-rust for that)

This code interacts via the REST API so you can use it in your middleware/webapps etc to execute actions and query the EOSIO node.

Components

• libabieos-sys [de-]serialization of the ABIEOS protocol from/to json
• client-keys key generation, signing, and hashing tools
• client-api library to interact with the HTTP EOSIO endpoint

Status

early stages.

It should be able to:

• sign things (with the help of keosd)
• verify keys.
• pack/unpack abieos serialization using abieos
• 'play' tic-tac-toe, using the contract from the EOSIO Tic Tac Toe Smart Contract tutorial.

I am also new to Rust. Feel free to raise issues on style/technique/idiomatic issues. I'm here to learn.

Build notes

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

• This currently uses a forked version of abieos due to some json parsing differences.
• This should work with the current release of EOSIO (2.0.x), although I actually use the develop branch for development.
