This repository contains the XBR smart contracts, with Ethereum as target blockchain, and Solidity as implementation language for the XBR Protocol.
Please see the documentation for more information.
The XBR Protocol - at its core - is made of the XBR smart contracts, and
the primary artifacts built are the contract ABI files (in
./build/contracts/*.json
).
Technically, these files are all you need to interact and talk to the XBR smart contracts.
However, doing it that way (using the raw ABI files and presumably some generic Ethereum library) is cumbersome and error prone to maintain.
Therefore, we create wrapper libraries for XBR, currently for Python and JavaScript, that make interaction with XBR contract super easy.
The libraries are available here:
- XBR client library for Python
- XBR client library for JavaScript/Browser
- XBR client library for JavaScript/NodeJS
To use XBR Lib for JavaScript (in a browser Dapp), add a reference to the latest development version we host:
<script>
XBR_DEBUG_TOKEN_ADDR = '0x67b5656d60a809915323bf2c40a8bef15a152e3e';
XBR_DEBUG_NETWORK_ADDR = '0x2612af3a521c2df9eaf28422ca335b04adf3ac66';
</script>
<script src="https://xbr.network/lib/xbr.min.js"></script>
Then to use
xbr.setProvider(window.web3.currentProvider);
As long as we haven't deployed the XBR smart contracts to any public
network (testnets or mainnet), a user must set the addresses of our
deployed token and network smart contracts on the (private) network
the user is connecting to and where the XBR contracts need to be
deployed.
npm install autobahn
XBR Lib for Python is published on PyPI and can be installed:
pip install xbr
To use XBR Lib for Python, export the following environment variables
export XBR_DEBUG_TOKEN_ADDR="0x67b5656d60a809915323bf2c40a8bef15a152e3e"
export XBR_DEBUG_NETWORK_ADDR="0x2612af3a521c2df9eaf28422ca335b04adf3ac66"
import the library and set the Web3 provider:
import xbr
from web3.auto import w3
xbr.setProvider(w3)
