ChainX Plugin Request

[RomeroYang]

@RomeroYang How are you doing? When will we launch the new release?

Working on new features, this may take several days.

[RomeroYang]

will do, we have a release this week with this update 7f30c70

[true-eye]

Sure!

Also updated the issue content with hash

[RomeroYang]

Some issues in the code you need to update:

1. use flutter_svg: ^0.19.3 in pubspec.yaml.
2. update type of tokenSymbol and tokenDecimals to List, see #24 .

The latest polkadot-js/apps staking page shows the blocks nominations status of validator, if your plugin need this update, see the latest change of https://github.com/polkawallet-io/sdk.

[true-eye]

Thanks for the guide!
Updated. the flutter_svg, tokenSymbol & tokenDecimals.
For blocks nomination, it doesn't need for ChainX.

Hash: 39573cfbf005e061ca31b3b884b2bc428a622930

[RomeroYang]

Polkawallet SDK updated to v0.1.4 now, you need to update signTxAsExtension and signBytesAsExtension in js_service_chainx/src/service/keyring.ts, see polkawallet-io/sdk@d43e7d5.

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang Finally, fixed all issues. Please check. Thanks

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang Added bunch of staking functionalities (vote, rebond, claim, unbond, refresh)
The new hash: 07b601d0aaae0b173e7a18006f7502b9bb55b32d
Please update, Thanks

[RomeroYang]

What should I do for this update?

you should update the genesisHash string like this: polkawallet-io/polkawallet_plugin_laminar@6da394e

the one in networkSpect.ts file is for off-line-signature, and the one in plugin.dart file is for network check while sending tx.
you can get the genesisHash through api.genesisHash.toString() in js env.

[true-eye]

I've updated the sdk version to 0.1.6.

• added genesisHash.
• For networkSpec.ts file, added CHAINX (genesisHash, SubstrateNetworkKeys)

0.1.6 hash: 0692cbb02da9cfd59eae2856e6e2819c072d4cd3

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang I think, the new version was only released on IOS. Any plan to release on Android?

[RomeroYang]

We want to use a new version of polkawallet-io/sdk in next release, but the new one is not published yet.

So you may need to use the develop branch of polkawallet-io/sdk and polkawallet-io/polkawallet_plugin_kusama, do some modification and wait for a new polkawallet-io/sdk release in pub.dev.

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang Thank you for letting me know.
When will the new version of SDK be released?
And is the develop branch of polkawallet_plugin_kusama mainly updated? Or should I also wait for that?

[RomeroYang]

@RomeroYang Thank you for letting me know.

It will be released in this week. You may wait for the master branch update.

[YuQiYang]

@RomeroYang Thank you for letting me know.

noticed that SDK had update, please continue ChainX plugin

The new SDK will be released this week, ChainX plugin may be in next week.

[RomeroYang]

New SDK was released: https://pub.dev/packages/polkawallet_sdk

1. add gradientColor and backgroundImage for new UI.
2. JSChannel was changed to https://localhost:8080/ in js_api/src/index.ts.
3. add networkMetadata for offline-signature.

[true-eye]

Yes. I will update them as soon as possible.

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang I've updated the (1) & (2).
Not sure what I should do for (3). Is there any plugin (polkawallet_plugin_kusama or polkawallet_plugin_acala) that I can see the example updates?
Thanks

[RomeroYang]

see: polkawallet-io/sdk@2cc14c7

1. create chainX metadata.ts in js_service_chainx/src/constants/ like js_api/src/constants/networkMetadata.ts
2. update signAsync() function in js_service_chainx/src/service/keyring.ts.

[true-eye]

Thanks, I've updated!
By the way, what should be the metadata string for ChainX?

[RomeroYang]

A easy way to get the metadata of a substrate-based chain is:

1. open a web page which can connect to a node through ws/wss in Chrome.
2. open the Devtool, go to Network panel, and find the ws connection.
3. you'll find the result of a state_getMetadata request, that's the string you need.
   

[true-eye]

cool man! Thanks. I will

[true-eye]

Done!

[RomeroYang]

Done!

Could you paste a plugin repo commit hash here? so I can use a specific version of your plugin.

And you also need to submit a commit hash here if your plugin has a updated version in the future.

[RomeroYang]

I just add your plugin in the App in dev, find some image files need update.

1. chainx_gray.png should be a shap in gray, and the color is #9e9e9e. It should have a little padding, because it looks a bit big now:
   

2. bg.png should have a transparent background color, it will display as texture on a block with themeColor, like below:
   

but chainX has a bright yellow theme color, so I think your bg.png should have a dark background, like this:

now it looks like this in the app:

3. you'd better delete the unused assets like polkadot.png, staking_pink.png for reducing the package size.
4. staking.png and governance.png were replaced with svg images, see develop branch of polkawallet_plugin_kusama.

[RomeroYang]

Unhandled Exception: type 'String' is not a subtype of type 'int' for ValidatorData.registeredAt

And there's a WARNING in your ts file:

I/chromium(13723): [INFO:CONSOLE(33)] "@polkadot/types-known has multiple versions, ensure that there is only one installed.

you can test your js_service_chainx code in Chrome console through opening js_service_chainx/test/index.html.

1. chainx_gray.png should be a shap in gray, and the color is #9e9e9e. It should have a little padding, because it looks a bit big now:

I noticed the gray version of the DOT icon has 2 gray tones. I assume I can simply make a lighter version of the current icon but with different shades. All based off #9e9e9e of course.

2. staking.png and governance.png were replaced with svg images, see develop branch of polkawallet_plugin_kusama.

Am I looking at the correct pictures of a 'hand' for staking and the 'voting ballot' for governance?

[Exxibition]

As for the bg.png, shouldn't that be more of an effect on yellow then? Like Polkadot? I'd much rather go along with the theme colour with an effect over it, than stick out from the app's design choices and make a dark background with yellow accents

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang Fixed all the issues you mentioned. But not sure why ValidatorData is not working on new release. Is there any data conversion? I would like to test on my side but I think the app and other plugins are not updated on github as master.. So can't setup on local. However, I've fixed so please check again.

Thanks!

[RomeroYang]

@RomeroYang Do you have an update for us regarding the above?

Working on Acala TC6 upgrade now, I will look into it next week.

[true-eye]

Hi, @RomeroYang
I hope you are doing well. Just greetings. :)

[RomeroYang]

Waitting for your update @true-eye

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang I've updated polkawallet_ui git ref and signTxAsExtension/signBytesAsExtension. please check

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang I've found some interface mismatch after upgrading the app. I need to fix them. I will let you know once fix

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang How are you doing? When will we launch the new release?

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang I hope you are doing well.

Please update, thanks

[true-eye]

@RomeroYang When will we release the next version? any hope this month?

[RomeroYang]

We will have sdk v0.1.6 in next version, preview of the update here: polkawallet-io/polkawallet_plugin_laminar@6da394e

[true-eye]

What should I do for this update?

[true-eye]

Could we release the minor version with chainx update before the sdk update, please?

[true-eye]

will do, we have a release this week with this update 7f30c70

@RomeroYang Did we launch this?

[RomeroYang]

New sdk 1.0.8 released! Check the changes in latest commits of branch develop of polkawallet_plugin_kusama.

[RomeroYang]

The App is ready for new release, please update to polkawallet_sdk 0.1.8+ and submit as soon as possible.

[Exxibition]

Sorry RomeroYang I have two questions:

1. Do you mean this one? polkawallet-io/polkawallet_plugin_kusama@66fd0e5

2. Is there a chance that we could hire the PolkaWallet team to include updates from your side in our plugin? (i.e. only when we want to add functionality to chainx directly, we can do so, but other maintenance etc would be done by you, like this SDK update)

I'd be more than happy to discuss, please let me know in Telegram t.me/Exxibition

[Exxibition]

@RomeroYang Please see my latest message in Telegram

[Exxibition]

Hi Romero,

The team has built an updated version here: https://github.com/chainx-org/polkawallet_plugin_chainx

I believe they contacted you on the matter, but I just wanted to make sure 😊

Let me know the progress please and whether we need to amend anything.

[RomeroYang]

@Exxibition The new plugin is not functioning, I have notified the developer to fix it last week.

[Exxibition]

I heard yesterday. Thank you Romero!
