v13.0.0

v13.0.0: Protocol 22

This is a direct re-tag of rc.2 with the only change being an upgrade to the stellar-base library to incorporate a patch release. Nonetheless, the entire changelog from the prior major version here is replicated for a comprehensive view on what's broken, added, and fixed.

Breaking Changes

• We stopped supporting Node 18 explicitly a while ago, but now the Babelification of the codebase will transform to Node 18 instead of 16.

TypeScript Bindings: the contract module.

• contract.AssembledTransaction#signAuthEntries now takes an address instead of a publicKey. This brings the API more inline with its actual functionality: It can be used to sign all the auth entries for a particular address, whether that is the address of an account (public key) or a contract. (#1044).
• The ClientOptions.signTransaction type has been updated to reflect the latest SEP-43 protocol, which matches the latest major version of Freighter and other wallets. It now accepts address, submit, and submitUrl options, and it returns a promise containing the signedTxXdr and the signerAddress. It now also returns an Error type if an error occurs during signing.
  • basicNodeSigner has been updated to reflect this new type.
• ClientOptions.signAuthEntry type has been updated to reflect the SEP-43 protocol, which returns a promise containing the signerAddress in addition to the signAuthEntry that was returned previously. It also can return an Error type.
• SentTransaction.init and new SentTransaction now take one (1) argument instead of two (2). The first argument had previously been deprecated and ignored. To update:

-SentTransaction(nonsense, realStuff)
+SentTransaction(realStuff)
-new SentTransaction(nonsense, realStuff)
+new SentTransaction(realStuff)

Server APIs: the rpc and Horizon modules.

• Deprecated RPC APIs have been removed (#1084):
  • simulateTransaction's cost field is removed
  • rpc.Server.getEvents's pagingToken field is deprecated, use cursor instead
• Deprecated Horizon APIs have been removed (deprecated since v10.0.1, ):
  • removed fields transaction_count, base_fee, and base_reserve
  • removed fields num_accounts and amount from assets
• The SorobanRpc import, previously deprecated, has been removed. You can import rpc instead:

-import { SorobanRpc } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'
+import { rpc } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'
// alternatively, you can also import from the `rpc` entrypoint:
import { Server } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk/rpc'

Added

TypeScript Bindings: the contract module.

• contract.Client now has a static deploy method that can be used to deploy a contract instance from an existing uploaded/"installed" Wasm hash. The first arguments to this method are the arguments for the contract's __constructor method in accordance with CAP-42 (#1086). For example, using the increment test contract as modified in https://github.com/stellar/soroban-test-examples/pull/2/files#diff-8734809100be3803c3ce38064730b4578074d7c2dc5fb7c05ca802b2248b18afR10-R45:

const tx = await contract.Client.deploy(
  { counter: 42 },
  {
    networkPassphrase,
    rpcUrl,
    wasmHash: uploadedWasmHash,
    publicKey: someKeypair.publicKey(),
    ...basicNodeSigner(someKeypair, networkPassphrase),
  },
);
const { result: client } = await tx.signAndSend();
const t = await client.get();
expect(t.result, 42);

• contract.AssembledTransaction#signAuthEntries now allows you to override authorizeEntry. This can be used to streamline novel workflows using cross-contract auth. (#1044).

Server modules: the rpc, Horizon, and stellartoml modules.

• Horizon.ServerApi now has an EffectType exported so that you can compare and infer effect types directly (#1099).
• Horizon.ServerApi.Trade type now has a type_i field for type inference (#1099).
• All effects now expose their type as an exact string (#947).
• stellartoml.Resolver.resolve now has a allowedRedirects option to configure the number of allowed redirects to follow when resolving a stellar toml file.
• rpc.Server.getEvents now returns a cursor field that matches pagingToken and id
• rpc.Server.getTransactions now returns a txHash field
• rpc.Server has two new methods:
  • pollTransaction to retry transaction retrieval ([#1092]#1092), and
  • getSACBalance to fetch the balance of a built-in Stellar Asset Contract token held by a contract (#1046), returning this schema:

export interface BalanceResponse {
  latestLedger: number;
  /** present only on success, otherwise request malformed or no balance */
  balanceEntry?: {
    /** a 64-bit integer */
    amount: string;
    authorized: boolean;
    clawback: boolean;

    lastModifiedLedgerSeq?: number;
    liveUntilLedgerSeq?: number;
  };
}

New bundles without dependencies

• You can now build the browser bundle without various dependencies:
  • Set USE_AXIOS=false to build without the axios dependency: this will build stellar-sdk-no-axios.js and stellar-sdk-no-axios.min.js in the dist/ directory, or just run yarn build:browser:no-axios to generate these files.
  • You can import Node packages without the axios dependency via @stellar/stellar-sdk/no-axios. For Node environments that don't support modern imports, use @stellar/stellar-sdk/lib/no-axios/index.
  • Set USE_EVENTSOURCE=false to build without the eventsource dependency: this will build stellar-sdk-no-eventsource.js and stellar-sdk-no-eventsource.min.js in the dist/ directory, or just run yarn build:browser:no-eventsource to generate these files.
  • You can import Node packages without the eventsource dependency via @stellar/stellar-sdk/no-eventsource. For Node.js environments that don't support modern imports, use @stellar/stellar-sdk/lib/no-eventsource/index.
  • To use a minimal build without both Axios and EventSource, use stellar-sdk-minimal.js for the browser build and import from @stellar/stellar-sdk/minimal for the Node package.

Fixed

• contract.AssembledTransaction#nonInvokerSigningBy now correctly returns contract addresses, in instances of cross-contract auth, rather than throwing an error. sign will ignore these contract addresses, since auth happens via cross-contract call (#1044).
• buildInvocationTree now correctly handles V2 contract creation and displays constructor args (js-stellar-base#785).

v13.0.0-rc.2

Breaking Changes

It now accepts address, submit, and submitUrl options, and it returns a promise containing the signedTxXdr and the signerAddress. It now also returns an Error type if an error occurs during signing.
  • basicNodeSigner has been updated to reflect the new type.
• ClientOptions.signAuthEntry type has also been updated to reflect the SEP-43 protocol, which also returns a promise containing the signerAddress in addition to the signAuthEntry that was returned previously. It also can return an Error type.

Full Changelog: v13.0.0-beta.1...v13.0.0-rc.1

v13.0.0-beta.1: Protocol 22

v13.0.0-beta.1

This is the first release that supports Protocol 22. While the network has not upgraded yet, you can start integrating the new features into your codebase if you want a head start. Keep in mind that while the binary XDR is backwards-compatible, the naming and layout of structures is not. In other words, this build will continue to work on Protocol 21, but you may have to update code that references XDR directly.

Breaking Changes

• contract.AssembledTransaction#signAuthEntries now takes an address instead of a publicKey. This brings the API more inline with its actual functionality: It can be used to sign all the auth entries for a particular address, whether that is the address of an account (public key) or a contract. (#1044).
• The Node.js code will now Babelify to Node 18 instead of Node 16, but we stopped supporting Node 16 long ago so this shouldn't be a breaking change.

Added

• You can now build the browser bundle without various dependencies:
  • Set USE_AXIOS=false to build without the axios dependency: this will build stellar-sdk-no-axios.js and stellar-sdk-no-axios.min.js in the dist/ directory, or just run yarn build:browser:no-axios to generate these files.

v12.2.0

Fixed

• @stellar/stellar-base and its underlying dependency @stellar/js-xdr have been upgraded to their latest versions; reference their release notes (v12.1.0 and v3.1.2, respectively) for details (#1013).

Added

• You can now pass custom headers to both rpc.Server and Horizon.Server (#1013):

import { Server } from "@stellar/stellar-sdk/rpc";

const s = new Server("<some URL>", { headers: { "X-Custom-Header": "hello" }})

• Horizon.Server now supports the new POST /transactions_async endpoint via the submitAsyncTransaction method (#989). Its purpose is to provide an immediate response to the submission rather than waiting for Horizon to determine its status. The response schema is as follows:

interface SubmitAsyncTransactionResponse {
  // the submitted transaction hash
  hash: string;
  // one of "PENDING", "DUPLICATE", "TRY_AGAIN_LATER", or "ERROR"
  tx_status: string;
  // a base64-encoded xdr.TransactionResult iff `tx_status` is "ERROR"
  error_result_xdr: string;
}

• rpc.Server now has a getFeeStats method which retrieves fee statistics for a previous chunk of ledgers to provide users with a way to provide informed decisions about getting their transactions included in the following ledgers (#998):

export interface GetFeeStatsResponse {
  sorobanInclusionFee: FeeDistribution;
  inclusionFee: FeeDistribution;
  latestLedger: number; // uint32
}

interface FeeDistribution {
  max: string;  // uint64
  min: string;  // uint64
  mode: string; // uint64

Full Changelog: v12.1.0...v12.2.0

v12.1.0

v12.1.0

Added

• contract now exports the DEFAULT_TIMEOUT (#984).
• contract.AssembledTransaction now has:
  • toXDR and fromXDR methods for serializing the transaction to and from XDR. These methods should be used in place of AssembledTransaction.toJSON and AssembledTransaction.fromJSONfor multi-auth signing. The JSON methods are now deprecated. Note: you must now call simulate on the transaction before the final signAndSend call after all required signatures are gathered when using the XDR methods (#977).
  • a restoreFootprint method which accepts the restorePreamble returned when a simulation call fails due to some contract state that has expired. When invoking a contract function, one can now set restore to true in the MethodOptions. When enabled, a restoreFootprint transaction will be created and await signing when required (#991).
  • separate sign and send methods so that you can sign a transaction without sending it (signAndSend still works as before; #922).
• contract.Client now has a txFromXDR method which should be used in place of txFromJSON for multi-auth signing (#977).

Deprecated

• In contract.AssembledTransaction, toJSON and fromJSON should be replaced with toXDR and fromXDR.
• In contract.Client, txFromJSON should be replaced with txFromXDR.

Fixed

• If you edit an AssembledTransaction with tx.raw = cloneFrom(tx.build), the tx.simulationData will now be updated correctly (#985).

v12.0.1

v12.0.1: Protocol 21 Stable Release

This update supports Protocol 21. It is an additive change to the protocol so there are no binary (i.e. XDR-level) incompatibilities, but your software may break if you encounter new unexpected or renamed fields from this Protocol (#949).

The following changelog is a concatenation of all of the RCs since the previous stable release and includes one additional added feature.

Breaking Changes

• The default timeout for transaction calls is now set to 300 seconds (5 minutes) when using ContractClient from the previous default of 10 seconds. 10 seconds is often not enough time to review transactions before signing, especially in Freighter or using a hardware wallet like a Ledger, which would cause a txTooLate error response from the server. Five minutes is also the value used by the CLI, so this brings the two into alignment (#956).
• ContractClient functionality previously added in v11.3.0 was exported in a non-standard way. You can now import it as any other stellar-sdk module (#962):

-import { ContractClient } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk/lib/contract_client'
+import { contract } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'
+const { Client } = contract

Note that this top-level contract export is a container for ContractClient and related functionality. The ContractClient class is now available at contract.Client, as shown. Further note that there is a capitalized Contract export as well, which comes from stellar-base. You can remember which is which because capital-C Contract is a class, whereas lowercase-c contract is a container/module with a bunch of classes, functions, and types.

Additionally, this is available from the /contract entrypoint, if your version of Node and TypeScript support the exports declaration. Finally, some of its exports have been renamed:

import {
   AssembledTransaction,
   SentTransaction,
-  ContractClient,
-  ContractClientOptions,
-} from '@stellar/stellar-sdk/lib/contract_client'
+  Client,
+  ClientOptions,
+} from '@stellar/stellar-sdk/contract'

• The ContractSpec class is now nested under the contract module, and has been renamed to Spec (#962). Alternatively, you can import this from the contract entrypoint, if your version of Node and TypeScript support the exports declaration:

-import { ContractSpec } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'
+import { contract } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'
+const { Spec } = contract
// OR
+import { Spec } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk/contract'

• Previously, AssembledTransaction.signAndSend() would return a SentTransaction even if the transaction never finalized. That is, if it successfully sent the transaction to the network, but the transaction was still status: 'PENDING', then it would console.error an error message, but return the indeterminate transaction anyhow. It now throws a SentTransaction.Errors.TransactionStillPending error with that error message instead (#962).

Deprecated

• SorobanRpc module is now also exported as rpc (#962). You can import it with either name for now, but SorobanRpc will be removed in a future release:

-import { SorobanRpc } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'
+import { rpc } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'

You can also now import it at the /rpc entrypoint, if your version of Node and TypeScript support the exports declaration.

-import { SorobanRpc } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'
-const { Api } = SorobanRpc
+import { Api } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk/rpc'

Added

• New methods on contract.Client (#960):
  • from(opts: ContractClientOptions) instantiates contract.Client by fetching the contractId's WASM from the network to fill out the client's ContractSpec.
  • fromWasm and fromWasmHash methods to instantiate a contract.Client when you already have the WASM bytes or hash alongside the contract.ClientOptions.
• New methods on rpc.Server (#960):
  • getContractWasmByContractId and getContractWasmByHash to retrieve a contract's WASM bytecode via its contractId or wasmHash, respectively.

• rpc.server.simulateTransaction now supports an optional stateChanges?: LedgerEntryChange[] field (#963):
  • If Before is omitted, it constitutes a creation, if After is omitted, it constitutes a deletions, note that Before and After cannot be be omitted at the same time. Each item follows this schema:

interface LedgerEntryChange {
  type: number;
  key: xdr.LedgerKey;
  before: xdr.LedgerEntry | null;
  after: xdr.LedgerEntry | null;
}

Fixed

• The breaking changes above (strictly speaking, they are not breaking changes because importing from the inner guts of the SDK is not supported) enable the contract module to be used in non-Node environments.
• Dependencies have been properly updated to pull in Protocol 21 XDR, where RC1 was not pulling properly for existing installs (#959).
• Each item in the GetEventsResponse.events list will now have a txHash item corresponding to the transaction hash that triggered a particular event (#939).
• ContractClient now properly handles methods that take no arguments by making MethodOptions the only parameter, bringing it inline with the types generated by Soroban CLI's soroban contract bindings typescript (#940).
• ContractClient now allows publicKey to be undefined (#941).
• SentTransaction will only pass allowHttp if (and only if) its corresponding AssembledTransaction#options config allowed it (#952).
