Python SDK for CKB

Python CKB is an experimental project that aims to provide human-friendly interfaces for common CKB operations. Note that Python CKB is not a complete SDK, but only implements the CKB functions that I am interested in.

Features:

• No third-party dependencies. All code is visible.
• Incredibly simple.

Installation

$ python -m pip install pyckb
# or
$ git clone https://github.com/mohanson/pyckb
$ cd pyckb
$ python -m pip install --editable .

Usage

By default, pyckb is configured on the develop. To switch networks, see ckb.config.

example/addr.py

Calculate address from private key in secp256k1 lock.

$ python example/addr.py --prikey 1

# ckt1qzda0cr08m85hc8jlnfp3zer7xulejywt49kt2rr0vthywaa50xwsqt4z78ng4yutl5u6xsv27ht6q08mhujf8s2r0n40

example/capacity.py

Get the capacity by an address.

$ python example/capacity.py --addr ckt1qzda0cr08m85hc8jlnfp3zer7xulejywt49kt2rr0vthywaa50xwsqt4z78ng4yutl5u6xsv27ht6q08mhujf8s2r0n40

# 3523312.39054609

example/deploy.py

Deploy a script to the chain.

$ python example/deploy.py --prikey 1 --file LICENSE

# script.code_hash = 0x1a124d54d4f37713b8f17fc12142ede488906d4290fbb178d7aad214977814ee
# script.hash_type = 2(data1)
# out_point.hash   = 0x418f60d67ff3e9841a3091c55cb4eb50837602582495931c372fff99f3107f38
# out_point.index  = 0

example/faucet.py

One faucet to send 300000 CKB to any ckb addresses. Note this only takes effect on the testnet.

$ python example/faucet.py --addr ckt1qzda0cr08m85hc8jlnfp3zer7xulejywt49kt2rr0vthywaa50xwsqt4z78ng4yutl5u6xsv27ht6q08mhujf8s2r0n40

example/redeem.py

Attempt to withdraw all funds from Dao. When running the test case of pyckb by pytest -v, a part of ckb will be locked in Dao. Use this script to recover this part of the funds.

$ python example/redeem.py --prikey 1

example/transfer.py

Transfer ckb to another account. If value is 0, then all assets will be transferred.

$ python example/transfer.py --prikey 1 --to ckt1qzda0cr08m85hc8jlnfp3zer7xulejywt49kt2rr0vthywaa50xwsqdrcaufs8qeu8wvvy0myyedek4vqad9qeq3gc4cf --value 100

example/txdump.py

Dump full transaction data for ckb-debugger to use.

$ python example/txdump.py --net testnet --hash 0x123b09a89e65cc9c375dab739c9c921f7067d0b205e563135bb5a1221f8948d9
