It's not present in NEO 3 and it's not needed there.

RPC

Client

Client is provided as a Go package, so please refer to the relevant godocs page.

Server

The server is written to support as much of the JSON-RPC 2.0 Spec as possible. The server is run as part of the node currently.

Example call

An example would be viewing the version of the node:

$ curl -X POST -d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "getversion", "params": [], "id": 1}' http://localhost:20332

which would yield the response:

{
  "jsonrpc" : "2.0",
    "id" : 1,
    "result" : {
      "port" : 20333,
      "useragent" : "/NEO-GO:0.36.0-dev/",
      "nonce" : 9318417
    }
}

Implementation notices

`invokefunction` and `invoke`

neo-go's implementation of invokefunction and invoke does not return tx field in the answer because that requires signing the transaction with some key in the server which doesn't fit the model of our node-client interactions. Lacking this signature the transaction is almost useless, so there is no point in returning it.

Both methods also don't currently support arrays in function parameters.

Unsupported methods

Methods listed down below are not going to be supported for various reasons and we're not accepting issues related to them.

Method	Reason
`claimgas`	Doesn't fit neo-go wallet model, use CLI to do that
`dumpprivkey`	Shouldn't exist for security reasons, see `claimgas` comment also
`getbalance`	Use `getaccountstate` instead, see `claimgas` comment also
`getmetricblocktimestamp`	Not really useful, use other means for node monitoring
`getnewaddress`	See `claimgas` comment
`getunclaimedgas`	Use `getunclaimed` instead, see `claimgas` comment also
`getwalletheight`	Not applicable to neo-go, see `claimgas` comment
`importprivkey`	Not applicable to neo-go, see `claimgas` comment
`listaddress`	Not applicable to neo-go, see `claimgas` comment
`listplugins`	neo-go doesn't have any plugins, so it makes no sense
`sendfrom`	Not applicable to neo-go, see `claimgas` comment
`sendmany`	Not applicable to neo-go, see `claimgas` comment
`sendtoaddress`	Not applicable to neo-go, see `claimgas` comment

Extensions

Some additional extensions are implemented as a part of this RPC server.

Websocket server

This server accepts websocket connections on ws://$BASE_URL/ws address. You can use it to perform regular RPC calls over websockets (it's supposed to be a little faster than going regular HTTP route) and you can also use it for additional functionality provided only via websockets (like notifications).

Notification subsystem

Notification subsystem consists of two additional RPC methods (subscribe and unsubscribe working only over websocket connection) that allow to subscribe to various blockchain events (with simple event filtering) and receive them on the client as JSON-RPC notifications. More details on that are written in the notifications specification.
