Fuel Rust SDK

Simple CLI program to encode Sway function calls and decode their output. The ABI being encoded and decoded is specified here Icon Link.

Icon LinkUsage

sway-abi-cli 0.1.0
FuelVM ABI coder

USAGE:
    sway-abi-cli <SUBCOMMAND>

FLAGS:
    -h, --help       Prints help information
    -V, --version    Prints version information

SUBCOMMANDS:
    codegen   Output Rust types file
    decode    Decode ABI call result
    encode    Encode ABI call
    help      Prints this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Icon LinkExamples

You can choose to encode only the given params or you can go a step further and have a full JSON ABI file and encode the whole input to a certain function call defined in the JSON file.

Icon LinkEncoding params only

$ cargo run -- encode params -v bool true
0000000000000001

$ cargo run -- encode params -v bool true -v u32 42 -v u32 100
0000000000000001000000000000002a0000000000000064

Note that for every param you want to encode, you must pass a -v flag followed by the type, and then the value: -v <type_1> <value_1> -v <type_2> <value_2> -v <type_n> <value_n>

Icon LinkEncoding function call

example/simple.json:

[
  {
    "type":"function",
    "inputs":[
      {
        "name":"arg",
        "type":"u32"
      }
    ],
    "name":"takes_u32_returns_bool",
    "outputs":[
      {
        "name":"",
        "type":"bool"
      }
    ]
  }
]

$ cargo run -- encode function examples/simple.json takes_u32_returns_bool -p 4
000000006355e6ee0000000000000004

example/array.json

[
  {
    "type":"function",
    "inputs":[
      {
        "name":"arg",
        "type":"u16[3]"
      }
    ],
    "name":"takes_array",
    "outputs":[
      {
        "name":"",
        "type":"u16[2]"
      }
    ]
  }
]

$ cargo run -- encode function examples/array.json takes_array -p '[1,2]'
00000000f0b8786400000000000000010000000000000002

Note that the first word (8 bytes) of the output is reserved for the function selector, which is captured in the last 4 bytes, which is simply the 256hash of the function signature.

Example with nested struct:

[
  {
    "type":"contract",
    "inputs":[
      {
        "name":"MyNestedStruct",
        "type":"struct",
        "components":[
          {
            "name":"x",
            "type":"u16"
          },
          {
            "name":"y",
            "type":"struct",
            "components":[
              {
                "name":"a",
                "type":"bool"
              },
              {
                "name":"b",
                "type":"u8[2]"
              }
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    ],
    "name":"takes_nested_struct",
    "outputs":[
 
    ]
  }
]

$ cargo run -- encode function examples/nested_struct.json takes_nested_struct -p '(10, (true, [1,2]))'
00000000e8a04d9c000000000000000a000000000000000100000000000000010000000000000002

Icon LinkDecoding params only

Similar to encoding parameters only:

$ cargo run -- decode params -t bool -t u32 -t u32 0000000000000001000000000000002a0000000000000064
Bool(true)
U32(42)
U32(100)

Icon LinkDecoding function output

$ cargo run -- decode function examples/simple.json takes_u32_returns_bool 0000000000000001
Bool(true)
