cardano_wallet_sdk

Flutter SDK for building Cardano blockchain mobile apps in Flutter using the Dart programming language.

Current Features

Create Wallets - Create and restore, both read-only and transactional wallets using staking addresses, mnemonics or private keys.
Transaction History - List transactions, rewards and fees for both ADA and Native Tokens.
Addresses - Generate and manage Shelley key pairs and addresses.
Transactions - Build, sign and submit simple ADA payment transactions.
Blockchain API - Cardano blockchain access via the BlockFrost API package
Binary Encoding - Enough CBOR support is provided to submit simple payment transactions.

Kick the Tires

To see the SDK in action, both a pure Dart example and multi-platform Flutter example are incuded in this distribution. You can also visit the live Flutter Demonstration Wallet hosted on google cloud.

Project Status

This library is currently under development and is not yet production quality. It is being developed on a part-time basis with an evolving schedule based on funding and developer resources. To date it has been funded by a series of modest Project Catalyst grants. The current schedule is:

2022-04-07 0.1.0-alpha.12 completed Fund 5 SDK prototype and demo Flutter wallet supporting blockchain access, loading wallet balances and submitting simple transactions.
2022-12-31 active Fund 7 phase to build a solid foundation for production SDK. Features include improved API, third-party dependency reduction, mnemonics, all Cardano address types, full CBOR support, native token/NFT minting/burning, basic staking and basic smart contract support.
2023-03-31 planned Fund 8 work will mostly focus on higher-level smart contract support, and as time allows, may include tutorials, DApp linking and community driven features.
2023-06-31 planned Fund 9 will be for ongoing maintenance and community-driven development requests.

This is an ambitious project, requiring much ongoing maintenance, development and community support. If you'd like to see this project succeed, please support us by voting for the Flutter SDK in Fund 9. Proposals will be published in June 2022 and voting will be in August 2022.

If you'd like to can contribute directly, the Flutter SDK has a dedicated wallet:

Usage

Released versions and installation details can be found on pub.dev.

Coding Style

Although Dart is an imperative language, the framework uses functional idioms whenever possible. In particular, the majority of the classes are immutible and rather than creating side effects by throwing exceptions, the Result class is used. The WalletBuilder's build method provides a concrete example, returning either a wallet instance or error message if issues arise:

Result<Wallet, String> result = walletBuilder.build();
result.when(
    ok: (wallet) => print("Success: ${wallet.walletName}"),
    err: (message) => print("Error: $message"),
);

Wallet Management

Create a wallet builder for the testnet using a BlockFrost key.

final walletBuilder = WalletBuilder()
    ..network = Networks.testnet
    ..testnetAdapterKey = blockfrostKey;

Create a read-only wallet using a staking address.

var address = ShelleyAddress.fromBech32('stake_test1uqvwl7a...');
final walletBuilder = WalletBuilder()
    ..network = Networks.testnet
    ..testnetAdapterKey = blockfrostKey
    ..stakeAddress = address;
Result<ReadOnlyWallet, String> result = await walletBuilder.readOnlyBuildAndSync();
result.when(
    ok: (wallet) => print("${wallet.walletName}: ${wallet.balance}"),
    err: (message) => print("Error: $message"),
);

Restore existing wallet using 24 word mnemonic.

List<String> mnemonic = 'rude stadium move gallery receive just...'.split(' ');
final walletBuilder = WalletBuilder()
    ..network = Networks.testnet
    ..testnetAdapterKey = blockfrostKey
    ..mnemonic = mnemonic;
Result<Wallet, String> result = await walletBuilder.buildAndSync();
if (result.isOk()) {
    var wallet = result.unwrap();
    print("${wallet.walletName}: ${wallet.balance}");
}

Update existing wallet.

final walletBuilder = WalletBuilder()
    ..network = Networks.testnet
    ..testnetAdapterKey = blockfrostKey
    ..mnemonic = mnemonic;
Result<Wallet, String> result = walletBuilder.build();
Wallet wallet = result.unwrap();
Coin oldBalance = wallet.balance;
var result2 = await wallet.update();
result2.when(
    ok: (_) => print("old:$oldBalance lovelace, new: ${wallet.balance} lovelace"),
    err: (message) => print("Error: $message"),
);

Create a new 24 word mnemonic.

List<String> mnemonic = WalletBuilder.generateNewMnemonic();
print("mnemonic: ${mnemonic.join(' ')}");

Wallet Details

List transaction history.

wallet.transactions.forEach((tx) => print(tx));

List addresses.

wallet.addresses.forEach((addr) => print(addr.toBech32()));

List currency balances.

final formatter = AdaFormattter.compactCurrency();
wallet.currencies.forEach((assetId, balance) {
    final isAda = assetId == lovelaceHex;
    print("$assetId: ${isAda ? formatter.format(balance) : balance}");
});

List staking rewards.

wallet.stakeAccounts.forEach((acct) {
    acct.rewards.forEach((reward) {
        print("epoch: ${reward.epoch}, ${reward.amount} ADA");
    });
});

Wallet Keys and Addresses

Access root private and public key pair.

Bip32KeyPair pair = wallet.rootKeyPair;
print("${pair.signingKey}, ${pair.verifyKey}");

Access staking address.

print(wallet.account.stakeAddress));

First unused change address.

print(wallet.firstUnusedChangeAddress));

First unused spend address.

print(wallet.firstUnusedSpendAddress));

Submit Transactions

Send 3 ADA to Bob.

var bobsAddress = parseAddress('addr1qyy6...');
final Result<ShelleyTransaction, String> result = await wallet.sendAda(
    toAddress: bobsAddress,
    lovelace: 3 * 1000000,
);
if (result.isOk()) {
    final tx = result.unwrap();
    print("ADA sent. Fee: ${tx.body.fee} lovelace");
}

Running Integration Tests

Several of the integration tests (suffixed with '_itest.dart') require a BlockFrost key to run. Installation steps are as follows:

git clone git@github.com:reaster/cardano_wallet_sdk.git
register for a free BlockFrost testnet policy-id key.
paste the policy-id key into a text file named: blockfrost_project_id.txt in the parent directory of this project.

echo "your-project-id" > ../blockfrost_project_id.txt

Now you can include the integration tests:

dart test -P itest
