Popular API Calls

Overview

Some of the most interesting API calls for exchanges and gateways are listed in this document.

We will now take a look at some sample outputs for some of the API calls.

API Calls

list_account_balances

List the balances of an account. Each account can have multiple balances, one for each type of asset owned by that account. The returned list will only contain assets for which the account has a nonzero balance.

vector<asset> graphene::wallet::wallet_api::list_account_balances(
    const string &id)

{% tabs %} {% tab title="Parameters" %}

  • id: the name or id of the account whose balances you want {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Return" %} A list of the given account’s balances. {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Script" %}

import json
from grapheneapi import GrapheneAPI
client = GrapheneAPI("localhost", 8092, "", "")
res = client.list_account_balances("dan")
print(json.dumps(res,indent=4))

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Result" %}

[
    {
        "asset_id": "1.3.0",
        "amount": "331104701530"
    },
    {
        "asset_id": "1.3.511",
        "amount": 3844848635
    },
    {
        "asset_id": "1.3.427",
        "amount": 8638
    },
    {
        "asset_id": "1.3.536",
        "amount": 31957981
    }
]

{% endtab %} {% endtabs %}

transfer

Transfer an amount from one account to another.

signed_transaction graphene::wallet::wallet_api::transfer(
    string from, 
    string to, 
    string amount, 
    string asset_symbol, 
    string memo, 
    bool broadcast = false)

{% tabs %} {% tab title="Parameters" %}

  • from: the name or id of the account sending the funds
  • to: the name or id of the account receiving the funds
  • amount: the amount to send (in nominal units to send half of a BTS, specify 0.5)
  • asset_symbol: the symbol or id of the asset to send
  • memo: a memo to attach to the transaction. The memo will be encrypted in the transaction and readable for the receiver. There is no length limit other than the limit imposed by maximum transaction size, but transaction increase with transaction size
  • broadcast: true to broadcast the transaction on the network

The final parameter True states that the signed transaction will be broadcast. If this parameter is False the transaction will be signed but not broadcast, hence not executed. {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Return" %} The signed transaction transferring funds. {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Script" %}

import json
from grapheneapi import GrapheneAPI
client = GrapheneAPI("localhost", 8092, "", "")
res = client.transfer("fromaccount","toaccount","10", "USD", "$10 gift", True);
print(json.dumps(res,indent=4))

transfer2

This method works just like transfer, except it always broadcasts and returns the transaction ID (hash) along with the signed transaction.

    string from, 
    string to,

  • to: the name or id of the account receiving the funds
  • amount: the amount to send

  • memo: a memo to attach to the transaction. The memo will be encrypted in the transaction and readable for the receiver. There is no length limit other than the limit imposed by maximum transaction size, but transaction increase with transaction size {% endtab %}

get_object

Returns the blockchain object corresponding to the given id.

This generic function can be used to retrieve any object from the blockchain that is assigned an ID. Certain types of objects have specialized convenience functions to return their objects e.g., assets have get_asset(), accounts have get_account(), but this function will work for any object.

    object_id_type id)const
