EOS技术研究:合约与数据库交互

智能合约操作链数据库是很常见的应用场景。EOS提供了专门的工具来做这件事(相当于Ethereum的leveldb),专业术语叫做持久化API,本文将完整严密地介绍这个工具以及对它的使用测试。

关键字:EOS,智能合约,链数据库,eosio::multi_index,constructor,emplace,erase,find。

需求

首先来看EOS中智能合约涉及到持久化的场景需求。一个action在执行时会有上下文变量出现,包括事务机制的处理,这些内容会应用链上分配的内存资源,而如果没有持久化技术,执行超过作用域时就会丢失掉这些上下文数据。因此要使用持久化技术将关键内容记录在链数据库中,任何时候使用都不受影响。持久化技术应该包括:

  • 记录一些状态持久化到数据库中
  • 具备查询的能力从数据库中获取内容
  • 提供C++ 的API来调用这些服务,也服务于合约开发者

eosio::multi_index

这是模仿boost::multi_index开发的一套库。它使用C++编写,提供了合约与数据库的交互持久化接口。

Multi-Index Iterators:不同于其他key-value数据库,multi_index提供了不同类型的key对应的值也是可迭代的复杂集合类型。

创建表

  • class/struct 定义一个持久化对象。
  • 该对象需要有一个const的成员作为主键,类型为uint64_t
  • 二级主键可选,提供不同的键类型
  • 为每个二级索引定义一个键导出器,键导出器是一个函数,可以用来从Multi_index表中获取键

使用Multi-Index表

一般来讲,对数据库的操作无外乎增删改查,

  • 增加对应的方法是emplace
  • 修改就是modify
  • 删除是erase
  • 查找包括find和get,以及迭代器操作

实战

下面我们通过一个智能合约操作底层数据库的实例,来演示对持久化api,multi_index的使用。过程中,也会展示相应api的定义。

车辆维修跟踪

首先,创建一个service表,用来创建服务记录报告,它包含的字段有:

  • 主键,客户ID不可当做主键,因为一个客户可以有多条记录。实际上,我们并不直接需要主键,所以我们可以让系统为我们生成一个。
  • 客户ID,与账户名字对应
  • 服务日期
  • 里程表,汽车里程表
#include <eosiolib/eosio.hpp>

using namespace eosio;

class vehicle : public eosio::contract {
public:
    /// @abi table
    struct service_rec {
        uint64_t        pkey;
        account_name    customer;
        uint32_t        service_date;
        uint32_t        odometer;

        auto primary_key() const { return pkey; }

        account_name get_customer() const { return customer; }

        EOSLIB_SERIALIZE(service_rec, (pkey)(customer)(service_date)(odometer))
    };

    typedef multi_index<N(service), service_rec> service_table_type;

    using contract::contract;

    /// @abi action
    void exec(account_name owner, account_name customer) {
        print("Hello, ", name{customer});
        service_table_type service_table(current_receiver(), owner);// 构造器,第一个参数是code代表表的拥有者,目前是current_receiver(),也可以使用contract基类的构造器初始化时的账户名_self,第二个参数是scope,在代码层次范围的标识符,这里就使用传入的owner账户。
        uint64_t pkeyf;// 主键
        service_table.emplace(owner, [&](auto &s_rec) {
            s_rec.pkey = service_table.available_primary_key();// 主键自增
            pkeyf = s_rec.pkey;
            print(pkeyf);// 打印主键内容
            s_rec.customer = customer;
            s_rec.service_date = 2000;
            s_rec.odometer = 1000;
        });
        service_rec result = service_table.get(pkeyf);
        print("_", result.pkey);
        print("_", result.customer);
        print("_", result.service_date);
        print("_", result.odometer);
    }

};

EOSIO_ABI(vehicle, (exec))

使用eosiocpp工具生成abi文件和wast文件。

eosiocpp -g vehicle.abi vehicle.cpp | eosiocpp -o vehicle.wasm vehicle.cpp

然后在终端中部署该合约,

cleos set contract one work/CLionProjects/github.com/eos/contracts/vehicle 

调用合约的exec方法,并输出结果:

liuwenbin@liuwenbin-H81M-DS2:~$ cleos push action one exec '["one","two"]' -p one
executed transaction: 3a45eaeb06732ad0c53ba7b157003e1c503f74ed447029d82cecbe12926cc9a9  112 bytes  365 us
#           one <= one::exec                    {"owner":"one","customer":"two"}
>> Hello, two13_13_14927180964919508992_2000_1000
warning: transaction executed locally, but may not be confirmed by the network yet

通过输出结果,可以知道主键为13,customer账户名被转为无符号32位整型数据14927180964919508992,服务时间为2000,里程表为1000。我们已经成功将数据存入了multi_index并取了出来。

删除的话可以通过service_table.erase(result);来删除掉对应记录。

find涉及二级索引,迭代器等操作,end判断等multi_index的api操作没有给出具体实例,未来在其他合约使用时会直接说明。

再演练一个例子

为了更好的熟悉multi_index的机制,我们再演练一个简单的例子:维护一个todolist的数据库表。直接上代码如下:

#include <eosiolib/eosio.hpp>
#include <eosiolib/print.hpp>

class todolist : public eosio::contract
{
  public:
    using eosio::contract::contract;
    // @abi table todos i64
    struct todo
    {
        uint64_t id;             // 待办事项主键id
        std::string description; // 待办事项的描述参数
        uint64_t completed;      // 标记一个待办事项是否已完成

        uint64_t primary_key() const { return id; }
        EOSLIB_SERIALIZE(todo, (id)(description)(completed))
    };

    typedef eosio::multi_index<N(todos), todo> todo_table;

    // @abi action
    void create(account_name author, const uint32_t id, const std::string &description)
    {
        todo_table todos(_self, author);
        todos.emplace(author, [&](auto &new_todo) {
            new_todo.id = id;
            new_todo.description = description;
            new_todo.completed = 0;
        });

        eosio::print("todo#", id, " created");
    }

    // @abi action
    void complete(account_name author, const uint32_t id)
    {
        todo_table todos(_self, author);
        auto todo_lookup = todos.find(id);
        eosio_assert(todo_lookup != todos.end(), "Todo does not exist");

        todos.modify(todo_lookup, author, [&](auto &modifiable_todo) {
            modifiable_todo.completed = 1;
        });

        eosio::print("todo#", id, " marked as complete");
    }

    // @abi action
    void destroy(account_name author, const uint32_t id)
    {
        todo_table todos(_self, author);
        auto todo_lookup = todos.find(id);
        todos.erase(todo_lookup);

        eosio::print("todo#", id, " destroyed");
    }
};

EOSIO_ABI(todolist, (create)(complete)(destroy))

这里加入了对数据的增删改查功能。然后我们使用

eosiocpp -o todolist.wast todolist.cpp && eosiocpp -g todolist.abi todolist.cpp

创建对应的abi和wast文件。接下来创建用户todo.user,

liuwenbin@liuwenbin-H81M-DS2:~$ cleos create account eosio todo.user EOS6MRyAjQq8ud7hVNYcfnVPJqcVpscN5So8BhtHuGYqET5GDW5CV EOS6MRyAjQq8ud7hVNYcfnVPJqcVpscN5So8BhtHuGYqET5GDW5CV
