This provides go bindings to the CosmWasm smart contract framework. In particular, it allows you to easily compile, initialize, and execute these contracts from Go.
As of the 0.7.0 release, we support CosmWasm 0.7.0 and any compatible smart contracts.
This repo contains both Rust and Go code. The rust code is compiled into a dll/so to be linked via cgo and wrapped with a pleasant Go API. The full build step involves compiling rust -> C library, and linking that library to the Go code. For ergonomics of the user, we will include pre-compiled libraries to easily link with, and Go developers should just be able to import this directly.
Since this package includes a rust prebuilt dll, you cannot just import the go code, but need to be on a system that works with an existing dll. Currently this is Linux (tested on Ubuntu, Debian, and CentOS7) and MacOS. We have a build system for Windows, but it is not supported by the wasmer singlepass backend which we rely upon for gas metering.
Note: CentOS support is currently disabled due to work on CD tooling. We require Linux with glibc 2.18+
Note: Windows is not supported currently
Note: We only currently support i686/amd64 architectures, although AMD support is an open issue
Please read the Documentation to understand both the general Architecture, as well as the more detailed Specification of the parameters and entry points.
There are two halfs to this code - go and rust. The first step is to ensure that there is
a proper dll built for your platform. This should be api/libgo_cosmwasm.X, where X is:
sofor Linux systemsdylibfor MacOSdllfor Windows - Not currently supported due to upstream dependency
If this is present, then make test will run the Go test suite and you can import this code freely.
If it is not present you will have to build it for your system, and ideally add it to this repo
with a PR (on your fork). We will set up a proper CI system for building these binaries,
but we are not there yet.
To build the rust side, try make build-rust and wait for it to compile. This depends on
cargo being installed with rustc version 1.39+. Generally, you can just use rustup to
install all this with no problems.
The Rust toolchain is pinned in the file rust-toolchain. It must be in sync with Dockerfile.cross
and Dockerfile.centos7.
When choosing a version, please use version with clippy, rustfmt and rls available to make Simon happy.
