GridProxy API client

Easily access Threefold grid APIs from vlang. gridproxy is v module include the API client along with API-specific information such as the root URL for the different networks available in the threefold grid. They also include classes that represent entities in the context of the API in sub-module model, and that are useful for making conversions between JSON objects and V objects. and some types with helper methods to convert the machine-friendly units returned by the API to more human-friendly units.

import the client

import incubaid.herolib.mycelium.grid3.gridproxy

// create a client for the testnet, with API cache disabled
// you can pass true as second arg to enable cache
mut gp_client := gridproxy.get(.test, false)!

use the client to interact with the gridproxy API

// get farm list
farms := gp_client.get_farms()! // you should handle any possible errors in your code
// get gateway list
gateways := gp_client.get_gateways()!
// get node list
nodes := gp_client.get_nodes()!
// get contract list
contracts := gp_client.get_contracts()!
// get grid stats
stats := gp_client.get_stats()!
// get node by id
node := gp_client.get_node_by_id(u64(16))!
// get node stats
node_stats := gp_client.get_node_stats_by_id(u64(16))!
// get twins
twins := gp_client.get_twins()!

for all available methods on the client, see GridProxy API client modules doc

filtering

// getting only dedicated farms
farms_dedicated := gp_client.get_farms(dedicated: true)!
// getting only farms with at least one free ip
farms_with_free_ips := gp_client.get_farms(free_ips: u64(1))!
// pagination options:
// get first page of farms
farms_first_page := gp_client.get_farms(page: u64(1))!
// you can mix any filters and pagination options
farms_first_page_dedicated := gp_client.get_farms(page: u64(1), dedicated: true)!
// access the field of first farm in the list
// the API could return an empty list if no farm is found
// you should handle this case in your code
if farms_first_page.len > 0 {
  println(farms_first_page[0].name)
}

helper methods

node := nodes[0]
node.updated_at // 1655940222
node.created // 1634637306
// you can convert the timestamp to V Time object easily with the helper method
node.created.to_time() // 2021-10-19 09:55:06
node.created.to_time().local() // 2021-10-19 11:55:06
node.created.to_time().relative() // last Oct 19
node.created.to_time().relative_short() // 246d ago
// lets check another field with different type
node.uptime // 18958736
// you can convert the seconds to a human-readable duration with the helper method
node.uptime.to_days() // 219.42981481481482
node.uptime.to_hours() // 5266.315555555556
node.uptime.to_minutes() // 315978.93333333335
// now to the capacity helper methods
node.total_resources.mru // 202803036160
// you can `to_megabytes`, `to_gigabytes` and `to_terabytes` methods on any resources field.
node.total_resources.mru.to_gigabytes() // 202.80303616
// the helper methods available for the billing to help you convert the TFT units as well
