# web3js-raw

Set of functions which eleminates all additional dependencies from invoking a menthod in Smart Contract deployed to Ethereum platform.
This uses **sendRawTransaction** method to post transactions but encapsulate all tedeous data preparations and data sigining tasks. Only downside is, having to provide the private key of the account which interacts with the smart contract. Following documentation assumes you will interact with Ropsten test net via infura.io, but module should work with any implementation of Ethereum network.

## Sample Dapp using web3js-raw

Refer [Fund Splitter smart contract dapp (fs_w3jsr)](https://github.com/fidenz-chim/fs_w3r2) for fully funcational implementation of a Dapp using web3js-raw

## Prerequisite

- ABI of the contract
- Account with Ether balance (to deploy the contract)
- Private key of the account
- Address of the contract (if you want to interact with already deployed contract)
  **OR**
- Byte code of the contract (if you want to deploy a new contract)

## Install

```
npm install web3js-raw --save
```

## Use cases 0.0.2beta.7 and above

### Initialise for a given contract

```
    var W3JSR = new web3jsraw(PROVIDER_NODE);
    W3JSR.getWeb3(ABI, CONTRACT_ADDRESS);

```

### Invoke a method **DOES NOT** change the state of the contract

```
    W3JSRW.ContractInstance.methods.getMemberCount().call().then(function(result){
        if(result){
            console.log(result);
        }
        else{
            retVal = {"error":"error"};
        }
    });
```

### Invoke a method **DOES** change the state of the contract

```
    var functionName = 'addMember';
    var params = [newAddress];
    W3JSRW.prepareSignSend(ABI,_CONTRACT_ADDRESS,functionName,ETHER_ACC,ETHER_PKEY,valueInWei,params,gasLimit).then((result,error) =>{
        console.log(result);
    },(error) =>{
        console.log(error);
    });

```

### Initialise multiple contracts

```
    var W3JSR_A = new web3jsraw(PROVIDER_NODE);
    var contractInstance_A = W3JSR_A.getWeb3(ABI_A, CONTRACT_ADDRESS_A);

var W3JSR_B = new web3jsraw(PROVIDER_NODE);
    var contractInstance_B = W3JSR_B.getWeb3(ABI_B, CONTRACT_ADDRESS_B);

//contractInstance_A & contractInstance_B are two independent objects which represent 2 contracts

```
