# Notification subsystem
|
||||
|
||||
Original motivation, requirements and general solution strategy are described
|
||||
in the issue #895.
|
||||
|
||||
This extension allows a websocket client to subscribe to various events and
|
||||
receive them as JSON-RPC notifications from the server.
|
||||
|
||||
## Events
|
||||
Currently supported events:
|
||||
* new block added
|
||||
Contents: block.
|
||||
Filters: primary ID.
|
||||
* new transaction in the block
|
||||
Contents: transaction.
|
||||
Filters: sender and cosigner.
|
||||
* notification generated during execution
|
||||
Contents: container hash, contract script hash, stack item.
|
||||
Filters: contract script hash.
|
||||
* transaction executed
|
||||
Contents: application execution result.
|
||||
Filters: VM state.
|
||||
|
||||
Filters use conjunctional logic.
|
||||
|
||||
## Ordering and persistence guarantees
|
||||
* new block is only announced after its processing is complete and the chain
|
||||
is updated to the new height
|
||||
* no disk-level persistence guarantees are given
|
||||
* new in-block transaction is announced after block processing, but before
|
||||
announcing the block itself
|
||||
* transaction notifications are only announced for successful transactions
|
||||
* all announcements are being done in the same order they happen on the chain
|
||||
At first transaction execution is announced, then followed by notifications
|
||||
generated during this execution, then followed by transaction announcement.
|
||||
Transaction announcements are ordered the same way they're in the block.
|
||||
* unsubscription may not cancel pending, but not yet sent events
|
||||
|
||||
## Subscription management
|
||||
|
||||
To receive events clients need to subscribe to them first via `subscribe`
|
||||
method. Upon successful subscription clients receive subscription ID for
|
||||
subsequent management of this subscription. Subscription is only valid for
|
||||
connection lifetime, no long-term client identification is being made.
|
||||
|
||||
Errors are not described down below, but they can be returned as standard
|
||||
JSON-RPC errors (most often caused by invalid parameters).
|
||||
|
||||
### `subscribe` method
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters: event stream name, stream-specific filter rules hash (can be
|
||||
omitted if empty).
|
||||
|
||||
Recognized stream names:
|
||||
* `block_added`
|
||||
Filter: `primary` as an integer with primary (speaker) node index from
|
||||
ConsensusData.
|
||||
* `transaction_added`
|
||||
Filter: `sender` field containing string with hex-encoded Uint160 (LE
|
||||
representation) for transaction's `Sender` and/or `cosigner` in the same
|
||||
format for one of transaction's `Cosigners`.
|
||||
* `notification_from_execution`
|
||||
Filter: `contract` field containing string with hex-encoded Uint160 (LE
|
||||
representation).
|
||||
* `transaction_executed`
|
||||
Filter: `state` field containing `HALT` or `FAULT` string for successful
|
||||
and failed executions respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
Response: returns subscription ID (string) as a result. This ID can be used to
|
||||
cancel this subscription and has no meaning other than that.
|
||||
|
||||
Example request (subscribe to notifications from contract
|
||||
0x6293a440ed80a427038e175a507d3def1e04fb67 generated when executing
|
||||
transactions):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{
|
||||
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
|
||||
"method": "subscribe",
|
||||
"params": ["notification_from_execution", {"contract": "6293a440ed80a427038e175a507d3def1e04fb67"}],
|
||||
"id": 1
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example response:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{
|
||||
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
|
||||
"id": 1,
|
||||
"result": "55aaff00"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### `unsubscribe` method
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters: subscription ID as a string.
|
||||
|
||||
Response: boolean true.
|
||||
|
||||
Example request (unsubscribe from "55aaff00"):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{
|
||||
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
|
||||
"method": "unsubscribe",
|
||||
"params": ["55aaff00"],
|
||||
"id": 1
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example response:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{
|
||||
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
|
||||
"id": 1,
|
||||
"result": true
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Events
|
||||
|
||||
Events are sent as JSON-RPC notifications from the server with `method` field
|
||||
being used for notification names. Notification names are identical to stream
|
||||
names described for `subscribe` method with one important addition for
|
||||
`event_missed` which can be sent for any subscription to signify that some
|
||||
events were not delivered (usually when client isn't able to keep up with
|
||||
event flow).
|
||||
|
||||
Verbose responses for various structures like blocks and transactions are used
|
||||
to simplify working with notifications on client side. Returned structures
|
||||
mostly follow the one used by standard Neo RPC calls, but may have some minor
|
||||
differences.
|
||||
|
||||
If a server-side event matches several subscriptions from one client, it's
|
||||
only sent once.
|
||||
|
||||
### `block_added` notification
|
||||
As a first parameter (`params` section) contains block converted to JSON
|
||||
structure which is similar to verbose `getblock` response but with the
|
||||
following differences:
|
||||
* it doesn't have `size` field (you can calculate it client-side)
|
||||
* it doesn't have `nextblockhash` field (it's supposed to be the latest one
|
||||
anyway)
|
||||
* it doesn't have `confirmations` field (see previous)
|
||||
|
||||
No other parameters are sent.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
```
|
||||

|

|

### `transaction_added` notification
|
||||
|
||||
In the first parameter (`params` section) contains transaction converted to
|
||||
JSON which is similar to verbose `getrawtransaction` response, but with the
|
||||
following differences:
|
||||
* block's metadata is missing (`blockhash`, `confirmations`, `blocktime`)
|
||||
|
||||
No other parameters are sent.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
```
|
||||
{

|

|

### `notification_from_execution` notification
|
||||
|
||||
Contains three parameters: container hash (hex-encoded LE Uint256 in a
|
||||
string), contract script hash (hex-encoded LE Uint160 in a string) and stack
|
||||
item (encoded the same way as `state` field contents for notifications from

`getapplicationlog` response).

}
|

```
|

|

### `transaction_executed` notification
|
||||
|
||||
Contains the same result as from `getapplicationlog` method in the first
|
||||
parameter and no other parameters. One difference from `getapplicationlog` is
|
||||
that it always contains zero in the `contract` field.

Example:

#### 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.

### Extensions

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

neo-go's implementation of `invokefunction` and `invoke` does not return `tx`

|

#### Websocket server
|
||||
|
||||
Both methods also don't currently support arrays in function parameters.
|
||||
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](notifications.md).
