Wallet Core is available on the Android platform, through Java/JNI bindings. In this guide we show how to use it.
A sample application is available at: https://github.com/trustwallet/wallet-core/tree/master/samples/android .
Prerequisites
Android NDK Support plugin
Adding Library Dependency
Android releases are hosted on GitHub packages , It needs authentication to download packages, please checkout this guide from GitHub for more details.
We recommend to create a non-expiring and readonly token for accessing GitHub packages, and add it to local.properties
of your Android Studio project locally.
Generate a token here :
Add this dependency to build.gradle:
Copy dependencies {
implementation "com.trustwallet:wallet-core:<latest_tag>"
}
Add maven
and credentials
(local.properties
for local or system environment variables CI)
Copy
Properties properties = new Properties ()
File localProps = new File (rootDir . absolutePath, "local.properties" )
if (localProps . exists()) {
properties . load(localProps . newDataInputStream())
} else {
println "local.properties not found"
}
allprojects {
repositories {
maven {
url = uri( "https://maven.pkg.github.com/trustwallet/wallet-core" )
credentials {
username = properties . getProperty( "gpr.user" ) as String?: System. getenv( "GITHUB_USER" )
password = properties . getProperty( "gpr.key" ) as String?: System. getenv( "GITHUB_TOKEN" )
}
}
}
}
Code Examples
In the following sections we show code examples for some common funcions. Please refer to the Wallet Usage Guide for detailed explanations.
Wallet Management
First thing we need is to load JNI library
Copy init {
System. loadLibrary ( "TrustWalletCore" )
}
Creating or Importing a Multi-Coin HD Wallet
Copy val wallet = HDWallet ( 128 , "" )
Copy val wallet = HDWallet("ripple scissors kick mammal hire column oak again sun offer wealth tomorrow wagon turn fatal", "")
Account Address Derivation
Generating the Default Address for a Coin
Copy val addressBTC = wallet. getAddressForCoin (CoinType.BITCOIN)
val addressETH = wallet. getAddressForCoin (CoinType.ETHEREUM)
val addressBNB = wallet. getAddressForCoin (CoinType.BINANCE)
Generating an Address Using a Custom Derivation Path (Expert)
Copy val key = wallet. getKey ( "m/44\'/60\'/1\'/0/0" ) // m/44'/60'/1'/0/0
val address = CoinType.ETHEREUM. deriveAddress (key)
Transaction Signing
In general, when creating a new blockchain transaction, a wallet has to:
Put together a transaction with relevant fields (source, target, amount, etc.)
Sign the transaction, using the account private key. This is done by Wallet Core.
Send to a node for broadcasting to the blockchain network.
Ethereum Transaction Signing
Code example to fill in signer input parameters, perform signing, and retrieve encoded result:
Copy val signerInput = Ethereum.SigningInput. newBuilder (). apply {
chainId = ByteString. copyFrom ( BigInteger ( "01" ). toByteArray ())
gasPrice = BigInteger ( "d693a400" , 16 ). toByteString () // decimal 3600000000
gasLimit = BigInteger ( "5208" , 16 ). toByteString () // decimal 21000
toAddress = dummyReceiverAddress
transaction = Ethereum.Transaction. newBuilder (). apply {
transfer = Ethereum.Transaction.Transfer. newBuilder (). apply {
amount = BigInteger ( "0348bca5a16000" , 16 ). toByteString ()
}. build ()
}. build ()
privateKey = ByteString. copyFrom (secretPrivateKey. data ())
}. build ()
val output = AnySigner. sign (signerInput, CoinType.ETHEREUM, Ethereum.SigningOutput. parser ())
println ( "Signed transaction: \n ${ signerOutput.encoded. toByteArray (). toHexString () } " )
