AlgoSDK is a Java library for communicating and interacting with the Algorand network. It contains a REST client for accessing algod
instances over the web,
and also exposes functionality for generating keypairs, mnemonics, creating transactions, signing transactions, and serializing data across the network.

This program connects to a running sandbox private network, creates a payment transaction between two of the accounts, signs it with kmd, and reads result from Indexer.

AlgoSDK depends on org.bouncycastle:bcprov-jdk15on:1.61
for Ed25519
signatures, sha512/256
digests, and deserializing X.509
-encoded Ed25519
private keys.
The latter is the only explicit dependency on an external crypto library - all other references are abstracted through the JCA.
When using cryptographic functionality, and Java9+, you may run into the following warning:
WARNING: Illegal reflective access by org.bouncycastle.jcajce.provider.drbg.DRBG
This is known behavior, caused by more restrictive language features in Java 9+, that Bouncy Castle has yet to support. This warning can be suppressed safely. We will monitor cryptographic packages for updates or alternative implementations.
This project uses Maven.
~$ mvn package
We are using separate version targets for production and testing to allow using JUnit5 for tests. Some IDEs, like IDEA
do not support this very well. To workaround the issue a special ide
profile should be enabled if your IDE does not
support mixed target
and testTarget
versions. Regardless of IDE support, the tests can be run from the command line.
In this case clean
is used in case an incremental build was made by the IDE with Java8.
~$ mvn clean test
There is also a special integration test environment, and shared tests. To run these use the Makefile:
~$ make docker-test
To stand up the test harness, without running the entire test suite use the Makefile:
~$ make harness
You can then run specific cucumber-based unit and integration tests directly.
The generated pom file provides maven compatibility and deploy capabilities.
mvn clean install
mvn clean deploy -P github,default
mvn clean site -P github,default # for javadoc
mvn clean deploy -P release,default
Many cross-SDK tests are defined in algorand-sdk-testing. Some are integration tests with additional dependencies. These dependencies are containerized in a docker file, which can be executed with make docker-test
.
It is occasionally useful to run locally, or against alternate integration branches. To do this:
- Install feature files for your test branch "./run_integration_tests.sh -feature-only -test-branch "
- Run locally with
make integration
andmake unit
, or from the IDE by running "RunCucumberUnitTest.java"
Significant work has been taken to ensure Android compatibility (in particular for minSdkVersion
16). Note that the
default crypto provider on Android does not provide ed25519
signatures, so you will need to provide your own (e.g. BouncyCastle
).
The classes com.algorand.algosdk.v2.client.algod.\*
, com.algorand.algosdk.v2.client.indexer.\*
, com.algorand.algosdk.v2.client.common.AlgodClient
, and com.algorand.algosdk.v2.client.common.IndexerClient
are generated from OpenAPI specifications in: algod.oas2.json
and indexer.oas2.json
.
The specification files can be obtained from:
A testing framework can also be generated with: com.algorand.sdkutils.RunQueryMapperGenerator
and the tests run from com.algorand.sdkutils.RunAlgodV2Tests
and com.algorand.sdkutils.RunIndexerTests
The actual generation is done using the generate_java.sh
script in the generator repo.
The kmd
REST client has not been upgraded to use the new code generation, it is still largely autogenerated by swagger-codegen
. [https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen]
To regenerate the clients, first, check out the latest swagger-codegen
from the github repo. (In particular, the Homebrew version
is out of date and fails to handle raw byte arrays properly). Note OpenAPI 2.0 doesn't support unsigned types. Luckily we don't have any
uint32 types in algod, so we can do a lossless type-mapping fromt uint64->int64 (Long) -> BigInteger:
curl https://localhost:8080/swagger.json | sed -e 's/uint32/int64/g' > temp.json
swagger-codegen generate -i temp.json -l java -c config.json
config.json
looks like:
{
"library": "okhttp-gson",
"java8": false,
"hideGenerationTimestamp": true,
"serializableModel": false,
"supportJava6": true,
"invokerPackage": "com.algorand.algosdk.{kmd or algod}.client",
"apiPackage": "com.algorand.algosdk.{kmd or algod}.client.api",
"modelPackage": "com.algorand.algosdk.{kmd or algod}.client.model"
}
Make sure you convert all uint32
types to Long
types.
The generated code (as of April 2019) has one circular dependency involving
client.Pair
. The client
package depends on client.auth
, but client.auth
uses client.Pair
which is in the client
package. One more problem is that
uint64
is not a valid format in OpenAPI 2.0; however, we need to send large
integers to the algod
API (kmd
is fine). To resolve this, we do the
following manual pass on generated code:
- Move
Pair.java
into theclient.lib
package - Find-and-replace
Integer
withBigInteger
(for uint64),Long
(for uint32), etc. incom.algorand.algosdk.algod
and subpackages (unnecessary for algod) - Run an
Optimize Imports
operation on generated code, to minimize dependencies.
Note that msgpack-java is good at using the minimal representation.
