ETH
The essential Elixir library for interacting with Ethereum blockchain. You can now create Ethereum wallets, query the blockchain and sign/send transactions, all from Elixir / Erlang Virtual Machine.
Example
wallet = ETH.Wallet.create
# %{eth_address: "0x31CF67A272A23C7A11128C97FC3B2F4C13AFD87F",

Credits
- Izel Nakri - I reverse engineered ethereum JavaScript libraries in Elixir so you don't have to.
Additionally this library wouldnt exist without the libraries below:
- ExRLP
- Ethereumex
- keccakf1600
- libsecp256k1
NOTE:
To properly use this package, you will need to run rebar compile eunit for libsecp256k1.
TODO:
Ethereum Smart Contracts, small enhancements
Installation
If available in Hex, the package can be installed
by adding eth to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:
def deps do
[
{:eth, "~> 0.6.5"}
]
endRunning the tests
Install a testrpc(now renamed to ganache) to run ethereum locally:
npm install -g ganache
Elixir tests automatically spawns and kills the ganache process. All you need to do now is to run the tests in sequence thus --seed 0:
mix test --seed 0
