X-Chain

X-Chain API

This page is an overview of the X-Chain API associated with AvalancheGo.

The X-Chain, Avalanche's native platform for creating and trading assets, is an instance of the Avalanche Virtual Machine (AVM). This API allows clients to create and trade assets on the X-Chain and other instances of the AVM.

Format

This API uses the json 2.0 RPC format. For more information on making JSON RPC calls, see here.

Endpoints

/ext/bc/X to interact with the X-Chain.

/ext/bc/blockchainID to interact with other AVM instances, where blockchainID is the ID of a blockchain running the AVM.

Methods

avm.buildGenesis

Given a JSON representation of this Virtual Machine’s genesis state, create the byte representation of that state.

Endpoint

This call is made to the AVM’s static API endpoint:

/ext/vm/avm

Note: addresses should not include a chain prefix (that is X-) in calls to the static API endpoint because these prefixes refer to a specific chain.

Signature:

avm.buildGenesis({
    networkID: int,
    genesisData: JSON,
    encoding: string, //optional
}) -> {
    bytes: string,
    encoding: string,
}

Encoding specifies the encoding format to use for arbitrary bytes, that is the genesis bytes that are returned. Can only be hex when a value is provided.

genesisData has this form:

{
"genesisData" :
    {
        "assetAlias1": {               // Each object defines an asset
            "name": "human readable name",

Signature:

avm.getAddressTxs({
    address: string,
    cursor: uint64,     // optional, leave empty to get the first page
    assetID: string,
    pageSize: uint64    // optional, defaults to 1024
}) -> {
    txIDs: []string,
    cursor: uint64,
}

Request Parameters:

  • address: The address for which we're fetching related transactions

    denomination: int
}
  • assetID is the id of the asset for which the information is requested.
  • name is the asset’s human-readable, not necessarily unique name.
  • symbol is the asset’s symbol.
  • denomination determines how balances of this asset are displayed by user interfaces. If denomination is 0, 100 units of this asset are displayed as 100. If denomination is 1, 100 units of this asset are displayed as 10.0. If denomination is 2, 100 units of this asset are displays as .100, etc.

:::note

The AssetID for AVAX differs depending on the network you are on.

Mainnet: FvwEAhmxKfeiG8SnEvq42hc6whRyY3EFYAvebMqDNDGCgxN5Z

Testnet: U8iRqJoiJm8xZHAacmvYyZVwqQx6uDNtQeP3CQ6fcgQk3JqnK

For finding the assetID of other assets, this [info] might be useful. Also, avm.getUTXOs returns the assetID in its output.

Where:

  • credentials is a list of this transaction's credentials. Each credential proves that this transaction's creator is allowed to consume one of this transaction's inputs. Each credential is a list of signatures.
  • unsignedTx is the non-signature portion of the transaction.
  • networkID is the ID of the network this transaction happened on. (Avalanche Mainnet is 1.)
  • blockchainID is the ID of the blockchain this transaction happened on. (Avalanche Mainnet X-Chain is 2oYMBNV4eNHyqk2fjjV5nVQLDbtmNJzq5s3qs3Lo6ftnC6FByM.)
  • Each element of outputs is an output (UTXO) of this transaction that is not being exported to another chain.
  • Each element of inputs is an input of this transaction which has not been imported from another chain.
  • Import Transactions have additional fields sourceChain and importedInputs, which specify the blockchain ID that assets are being imported from, and the inputs that are being imported.
  • Export Transactions have additional fields destinationChain and exportedOutputs, which specify the blockchain ID that assets are being exported to, and the UTXOs that are being exported.

An output contains:

  • assetID: The ID of the asset being transferred. (The Mainnet Avax ID is FvwEAhmxKfeiG8SnEvq42hc6whRyY3EFYAvebMqDNDGCgxN5Z.)
  • fxID: The ID of the FX this output uses.
  • output: The FX-specific contents of this output.

Most outputs use the secp256k1 FX, look like this:

{
  "assetID": "FvwEAhmxKfeiG8SnEvq42hc6whRyY3EFYAvebMqDNDGCgxN5Z",
  "fxID": "spdxUxVJQbX85MGxMHbKw1sHxMnSqJ3QBzDyDYEP3h6TLuxqQ",
  "output": {

    "amount": 1530084210,
    "locktime": 0,
    "threshold": 1
  }
}

The above output can be consumed after Unix time locktime by a transaction that has signatures from threshold of the addresses in addresses.

avm.getTxFee

Get the fees of the network.

Signature:

avm.getTxFee() ->
{
  txFee: uint64,
  createAssetTxFee: uint64,
}
  • txFee is the default fee for making transactions.
  • createAssetTxFee is the fee for creating a new asset.

All fees are denominated in nAVAX.

Example Call:

curl -X POST --data '{
    "jsonrpc":"2.0",
    "id"     : 1,
    "method" :"avm.getTxFee",
}' -H 'content-type:application/json;' 127.0.0.1:9650/ext/bc/X

Example Response:

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "result": {
    "txFee": "1000000",
    "createAssetTxFee": "10000000"
  }
}

avm.getTxStatus

:::caution Deprecated as of v1.10.0. :::

Get the status of a transaction sent to the network.

Signature:

avm.getTxStatus({txID: string}) -> {status: string}

status is one of:

  • Accepted: The transaction is (or will be) accepted by every node
  • Processing: The transaction is being voted on by this node
  • Rejected: The transaction will never be accepted by any node in the network
  • Unknown: The transaction hasn’t been seen by this node

Example Call:

curl -X POST --data '{
    "jsonrpc":"2.0",
    "id"     :1,
    "method" :"avm.getTxStatus",
    "params" :{
        "txID":"2QouvFWUbjuySRxeX5xMbNCuAaKWfbk5FeEa2JmoF85RKLk2dD"
    }
}' -H 'content-type:application/json;' 127.0.0.1:9650/ext/bc/X

Example Response:

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "result": {
    "status": "Accepted"
  }
}

avm.getUTXOs

Gets the UTXOs that reference a given address. If sourceChain is specified, then it will retrieve the atomic UTXOs exported from that chain to the X Chain.

Signature:

avm.getUTXOs({
    addresses: []string,
    limit: int, //optional
    startIndex: { //optional
        address: string,
        utxo: string
    },
    sourceChain: string, //optional
    encoding: string //optional
}) -> {
    numFetched: int,
    utxos: []string,
    endIndex: {
        address: string,
        utxo: string
    },
    sourceChain: string, //optional
    encoding: string
}
  • utxos is a list of UTXOs such that each UTXO references at least one address in addresses.
  • At most limit UTXOs are returned. If limit is omitted or greater than 1024, it is set to 1024.
  • This method supports pagination. endIndex denotes the last UTXO returned. To get the next set of UTXOs, use the value of endIndex as startIndex in the next call.
  • If startIndex is omitted, will fetch all UTXOs up to limit.
  • When using pagination (when startIndex is provided), UTXOs are not guaranteed to be unique across multiple calls. That is, a UTXO may appear in the result of the first call, and then again in the second call.
  • When using pagination, consistency is not guaranteed across multiple calls. That is, the UTXO set of the addresses may have changed between calls.
  • encoding sets the format for the returned UTXOs. Can only be hex when a value is provided.

Example

Suppose we want all UTXOs that reference at least one of X-avax18jma8ppw3nhx5r4ap8clazz0dps7rv5ukulre5 and X-avax1d09qn852zcy03sfc9hay2llmn9hsgnw4tp3dv6.

        "encoding": "hex"
    }
}' -H 'content-type:application/json;' 127.0.0.1:9650/ext/bc/X

This gives response:

Since numFetched is less than limit, we know that we are done fetching UTXOs and don’t need to call this method again.

Suppose we want to fetch the UTXOs exported from the P Chain to the X Chain in order to build an ImportTx. Then we need to call GetUTXOs with the sourceChain argument in order to retrieve the atomic UTXOs:
