🔑API

Hetu JsonRPC API

The JSON-PRC Server provides an API that allows you to connect to the Hetu blockchain and interact with the EVM. This gives you direct access to reading Ethereum-formatted transactions or sending them to the network which otherwise wouldn't be possible on a Cosmos chain, such as Hetu chain.

eth_sign

The sign method calculates an Ethereum specific signature with: sign(keccak256("\x19Ethereum Signed Message:\n" + len(message) + message))).

By adding a prefix to the message makes the calculated signature recognizable as an Ethereum specific signature. This prevents misuse where a malicious DApp can sign arbitrary data (e.g. transaction) and use the signature to impersonate the victim.

danger

The address to sign with must be unlocked.

Parameters

  • Account Address

  • Message to sign

// Request
curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_sign","params":["0x3b7252d007059ffc82d16d022da3cbf9992d2f70", "0xdeadbeaf"],"id":1}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:8545

eth_getFilterLogs

Returns an array of all logs matching filter with given id.

Parameters

  • QUANTITY - The filter id

// Request

eth_getLogs

Returns an array of all logs matching a given filter object.

Parameters

  • Object containing:

    fromBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: "latest") Integer block number, or "latest" for the last mined block or "pending", "earliest" for not yet mined transactions.

    toBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: "latest") Integer block number, or "latest" for the last mined block or "pending", "earliest" for not yet mined transactions.

    address: DATA|Array, 20 Bytes - (optional) Contract address or a list of addresses from which logs should originate.

    topics: Array of DATA, - (optional) Array of 32 Bytes DATA topics. Topics are order-dependent. Each topic can also be an array of DATA with “or” options.

    blockhash: (optional, future) With the addition of EIP-234, blockHash will be a new filter option which restricts the logs returned to the single block with the 32-byte hash blockHash. Using blockHash is equivalent to fromBlock = toBlock = the block number with hash blockHash. If blockHash is present in in the filter criteria, then neither fromBlock nor toBlock are allowed.

CometBFT RPC

The CometBFT RPC allows you to query transactions, blocks, consensus state, broadcast transactions, etc.

The latest CometBFT RPC documentations can be found here. CometBFT supports the following RPC protocols:

  • URI over HTTP

  • JSON-RPC over HTTP

  • JSON-RPC over Websockets

The docs will contain an interactive Swagger interface.

URI/HTTP

A GET request with arguments encoded as query parameters:

curl localhost:26657/block?height=5

RPC/HTTP

JSONRPC requests can be POST'd to the root RPC endpoint via HTTP. See the list of supported CometBFT RPC endpoints using Swagger here.

RPC/Websocket

Cosmos and CometBFT Events

Events are objects that contain information about the execution of the application and are triggered after a block is committed. They are mainly used by service providers like block explorers and wallet to track the execution of various messages and index transactions. You can get the full list of event categories and values here.

Subscribing to Events via Websocket

CometBFT Core provides a Websocket connection to subscribe or unsubscribe to CometBFT Events. To start a connection with the CometBFT websocket you need to define the address with the --rpc.laddr flag when starting the node (default tcp://127.0.0.1:26657):

hetud start --rpc.laddr="tcp://127.0.0.1:26657"

Then, start a websocket subscription with ws

# connect to  CometBFT websocket at port 8080
ws ws://localhost:8080/websocket

# subscribe to new  CometBFT block headers
> { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "subscribe", "params": ["tm.event='NewBlockHeader'"], "id": 1 }

The type and attribute value of the query allow you to filter the specific event you are looking for. For example, an Ethereum transaction on Hetu (MsgEthereumTx) triggers an event of type hetu and has sender and recipient as attributes. Subscribing to this event would be done like so:

{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "subscribe",
    "id": "0",
    "params": {
        "query": "tm.event='Tx' AND ethereum.recipient='hexAddress'"
    }
}

where hexAddress is an Ethereum hex address (eg: 0x1122334455667788990011223344556677889900).

The generic syntax looks like this:

{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "subscribe",
    "id": "0",
    "params": {
        "query": "tm.event='<event_value>' AND eventType.eventAttribute='<attribute_value>'"
    }
}

List of CometBFT Events

The main events you can subscribe to are:

  • NewBlock: Contains events triggered during BeginBlock and EndBlock.

  • Tx: Contains events triggered during DeliverTx (i.e. transaction processing).

  • ValidatorSetUpdates: Contains validator set updates for the block.

Example

ws ws://localhost:26657/websocket
> { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "subscribe", "params": ["tm.event='ValidatorSetUpdates'"], "id": 1 }

Example response:

{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 0,
    "result": {
        "query": "tm.event='ValidatorSetUpdates'",
        "data": {
            "type": " CometBFT/event/ValidatorSetUpdates",
            "value": {
              "validator_updates": [
                {
                  "address": "09EAD022FD25DE3A02E64B0FE9610B1417183EE4",
                  "pub_key": {
                    "type": " CometBFT/PubKeyEd25519",
                    "value": "ww0z4WaZ0Xg+YI10w43wTWbBmM3dpVza4mmSQYsd0ck="
                  },
                  "voting_power": "10",
                  "proposer_priority": "0"
                }
              ]
            }
        }
    }
}
