Usage Examples

HCS-2

client, _ := hcs2.NewClient(hcs2.ClientConfig{
	OperatorAccountID:  "0.0.1234",
	OperatorPrivateKey: "<private-key>",
	Network:            "testnet",
})

_, _ = client.CreateRegistry(context.Background(), hcs2.CreateRegistryOptions{
	RegistryType:        hcs2.RegistryTypeIndexed,
	TTL:                 86400,
	UseOperatorAsAdmin:  true,
	UseOperatorAsSubmit: true,
})

HCS-27

client, _ := hcs27.NewClient(hcs27.ClientConfig{
	OperatorAccountID:  "0.0.1234",
	OperatorPrivateKey: "<private-key>",
	Network:            "testnet",
})

metadata := hcs27.CheckpointMetadata{
	Type:   "ans-checkpoint-v1",
	Stream: hcs27.StreamID{Registry: "ans", LogID: "default"},
	Root:   hcs27.RootCommitment{TreeSize: "1", RootHashB64u: "<base64url-root>"},
}

HCS-14

client := hcs14.NewClient(hcs14.ClientOptions{})

result, _ := client.Resolve(
	context.Background(),
	"uaid:aid:ans-godaddy-ote;uid=ans://v1.0.1.ote.agent.cs3p.com;registry=ans;proto=a2a;nativeId=ote.agent.cs3p.com;version=1.0.1",
)
