Arweave Dart SDK

Dart package for interfacing with the Arweave network, modelled after arweave-js.

Installation

arweave-dart is currently not available on pub.dev but you can use it by referencing this repository in your pubspec.yaml as shown below:

dependencies:
  arweave:
    git: https://github.com/CDDelta/arweave-dart.git

You can optionally pin your dependency to a specific commit, branch, or tag to avoid possible breaking changes:

dependencies:
  arweave:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/CDDelta/arweave-dart.git
      ref: some-branch

Initialisation

Once you have the package, you can create an instance of the client with its default configuration:

import 'package:arweave/arweave.dart';

void main() {
  var client = Arweave();
}

This will create an instance of the client that connects to the arweave.net gateway or if you're running on the web, this will detect the origin you're hosting on and use that as the gateway to connect to.

You can optionally choose to provide your own gateway url:

Arweave(gatewayUrl: Uri.parse('https://arweave.dev'));

Usage

Working with Wallets

Loading an Arweave wallet can be done as shown below:

Wallet.fromJwk(json.decode('<wallet data>'));

Creating Transactions

Creating transactions with arweave-dart is easy. First prepare a transaction like below, optionally adding some tags:

final transaction = await client.transactions.prepare(
  Transaction.withBlobData(data: utf8.encode('Hello world!')),
  wallet,
);

transaction.addTag('App-Name', 'Hello World App');
transaction.addTag('App-Version', '1.0.0');

Secondly, sign the transaction:

await transaction.sign(wallet);

Finally upload the transaction.

This can be done in a single call, useful for small transactions.

await client.transactions.post(transaction);

Or progressively for more granularity.

await for (final upload in client.transactions.upload(transaction)) {
  print('${upload.progress * 100}%');
}

Using Data Bundles

Use ANS-102 data bundles by first preparing some data items as so:

final dataItem = DataItem.withBlobData(
  owner: wallet.owner,
  data: utf8.encode('hello world'),
)
  ..addTag('MyTag', '0')
  ..addTag('OtherTag', 'Foo');

await dataItem.sign(wallet);

and then creating the data bundle transaction:

final transaction = await client.transactions.prepare(
  Transaction.withDataBundle(bundle: DataBundle(items: [dataItem])),
  wallet,
);

Utilities

Dart's Base64 encoder/decoder is incompatible with Arweave's returned Base64 content, so arweave-dart exposes utilities for working with Base64 from Arweave. It also includes other utilities for AR/Winston conversions etc.

To use these utilities, import them like so:

import 'package:arweave/utils.dart' as utils;

Development

To rebuild the generated code (eg. for JSON serialisation) run:

dart pub run build_runner build
