uPort kotlin-common

Core interface definitions and default implementations for uPort kotlin SDK classes.

FAQ and helpdesk support

Modules

core

Contents

* definitions for the `HttpClient` used by all SDK methods,
* extension methods for dealing with base64,
* `ITimeProvider` and default implementation (`SystemTimeProvider`)
* `Networks` object and defaults for mainnet and the most used test networks

Usage

//use defaults
val registryAddress = Networks.mainnet.ethrDidRegistry //"0xdca7ef03e98e0dc2b855be647c39abe984fcf21b"

// register a testnet
Networks.registerNetwork(
    EthNetwork(
        name = "local",
        networkId = "0x1234",
        rpcUrl = "http://localhost:8545",
        ethrDidRegistry = "0xdca7ef03e98e0dc2b855be647c39abe984fcf21b"
    )
)

//register all popular public networks using your infura project ID
Networks.registerAllNetworksWithInfura("<YOUR INFURA ID>")

//use testnet
val net = Networks.get("0x1234")
or
val net = Networks.get("local")

// override defaults
Networks.registerNetwork(
    Networks.mainnet.copy(rpcUrl = "http://localhost:8545")
)
assertTrue(Networks.mainnet.rpcUrl == "http://localhost:8545")

jsonrpc

Contents

JSON RPC method wrappers used in the uPort SDK. This is not a complete set of methods and is meant to be internal. Use at your own risk.

signer-common

Contents

* `Signer` interface definition
* `KPSigner` default implementation. A `Signer` that uses a private key that lives in memory.
* extensions to provide coroutine functionality over callbacks
and to juggle with key and signature encodings

Usage

val signer :Signer = KPSigner("0x65fc670d9351cb87d1f56702fb56a7832ae2aab3427be944ab8c9f2a0ab87960")
//suspended call
val sigData = signer.signJWT("<some serialized JWT payload>")
val signatureString = sigData.getJoseEncoded()

test-helpers

Contents

Methods and extensions to ease testing with uPort SDK. coAssert extension for assertk isInstanceOf for multiple classes extension for assertk TestTimeProvider usable to juggle with time in JWT tests

Installation

These libraries are available through jitpack

In your main build.gradle file, add:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
        //...
    }
}

In your module build.gradle file, add:

def uport_kotlin_common_version = "0.4.4"
dependencies {
    //...
    // core lib
    implementation "com.github.uport-project.kotlin-common:core:$uport_kotlin_common_version"
    //signer-common lib
    implementation "com.github.uport-project.kotlin-common:signer-common:$uport_kotlin_common_version"
}

NOTE while jitpack allows you to import the whole distribution like so: implementation "com.github.uport-project:kotlin-common:$uport_kotlin_common_version" it is NOT a good idea to import the whole distribution because it will bring assertk into your runtime and bloat your app/library.

Credits

This SDK depends on

• several modules of KEthereum
• spongycastle - for base64 and DER encodings
• okhttp - for http client
• kmnid - for safer encodings of eth addresses
• assertk used in testing
