README

A (real) PHP library for Hive blockchain

Installation

composer require mahdiyari/hive-php

Initialization

$hive = new Hive($options?);

Example:

include 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Hive\Hive;

$hive = new Hive();

// or

// default options - these are already configured
$options = array(
  'rpcNodes'=> [
    'https://api.hive.blog',
    'https://rpc.ausbit.dev',
    'https://rpc.ecency.com',
    'https://api.pharesim.me',
    'https://api.deathwing.me'
  ],
  'chainId'=> 'beeab0de00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000',
  'timeout'=> 7
);
// Will try the next node after 7 seconds of waiting for response
// Or on a network failure

$hive = new Hive($options);

Usage

API calls:

$hive->call($method, $params);

Example:

$result = $hive->call('condenser_api.get_accounts', '[["mahdiyari"]]');
// returns the result as an array
echo $result[0]['name']; // "mahdiyari"
echo $result[0]['hbd_balance']; // "123456.000 HBD"

Private Key:

$hive->privateKeyFrom($string);
$hive->privateKeyFromLogin($username, $password, $role);

Example:

$privateKey = $hive->privateKeyFrom('5JRaypasxMx1L97ZUX7YuC5Psb5EAbF821kkAGtBj7xCJFQcbLg');
// or
$privateKey = $hive->privateKeyFromLogin('username', 'hive password', 'role');
// role: "posting" or "active" or etc
echo $privateKey->stringKey; // 5JRaypasxMx1L97ZUX7YuC5Psb5EAbF821kkAGtBj7xCJFQcbLg

Public Key:

$hive->publicKeyFrom($string);
$privateKey->createPublic()

Example:

$publicKey = $hive->publicKeyFrom('STM6aGPtxMUGnTPfKLSxdwCHbximSJxzrRjeQmwRW9BRCdrFotKLs');
// or
$publicKey = $privateKey->createPublic();


echo $publicKey->toString(); // STM6aGPtxMUGnTPfKLSxdwCHbximSJxzrRjeQmwRW9BRCdrFotKLs

Signing

$privateKey->sign($hash256);

Example:

$message = hash('sha256', 'My super cool message to be signed');
$signature = $privateKey->sign($message);
echo $signature;
// 1f8e46aa5cbc215f82119e172e3dd73396ad0d2231619d3d71688eff73f2b83474084eb970955d1f1f9c2a7281681d138ca49fe90ac58bf069549afe961685d932

Verifying

$publicKey->verify($hash256, $signature);

Example:

$verified = $publicKey->verify($message, $signature);
var_dump($verified); // bool(true)

Transactions

There are two ways to broadcast a transaction.

Manual broadcast

Example:

$vote = new stdClass;
$vote->voter = 'guest123';
$vote->author = 'blocktrades';
$vote->permlink = '11th-update-of-2022-on-blocktrades-work-on-hive-software';
$vote->weight = 5000;
$op = array("vote", $vote);

// transaction built
$trx = $hive->createTransaction([$op]);

// transaction signed
$hive->signTransaction($trx, $privateKey);

// will return trx_id on success
$result = $hive->broadcastTransaction($trx);
var_dump($result);
// array(1) {
//   'trx_id' =>
//   string(40) "2062bb47ed0c4c001843058129470fe5a8211735"
// }

Inline broadcast

Example:

$result = $hive->broadcast($privateKey, 'vote', ['guest123', 'blocktrades', '11th-update-of-2022-on-blocktrades-work-on-hive-software', 5000]);
var_dump($result);
// array(1) {
//   'trx_id' =>
//   string(40) "2062bb47ed0c4c001843058129470fe5a8211735"
// }

Notes for Transactions

Operations are in the following format when broadcasting manually:

array('operation_name', object(operation_params))

example:

$vote = new stdClass;
$vote->voter = 'guest123';
$vote->author = 'blocktrades';
$vote->permlink = '11th-update-of-2022-on-blocktrades-work-on-hive-software';
$vote->weight = 5000;

$op = array("vote", $vote);

Any parameter in opreation that is JSON (not to be confused with json strings), should be passed as an object.

Example:

The beneficiaries field in comment_options is in JSON format like this:

$beneficiaries = '[0, {"beneficiaries": [{"account": "mahdiyari","weight": 10000}]}]';

We should convert that into an object.

$beneficiaries = json_decode($beneficiaries);

(beneficiaries go inside the extensions)

$result = $hive->broadcast($privateKey, 'comment_options', ['author', 'permlink', '1000000.000 HBD', 10000, true, true, [$beneficiaries]]);

How to know the operation parameters

Easiest way is to find the operation on a block explorer.

e.g. https://hiveblocks.com/tx/2062bb47ed0c4c001843058129470fe5a8211735

You can also search the operation in /lib/Helpers/Serializer.php to get an idea of what parameters it requires.
