How to use Go language to implement smart contract functions

Smart contract is a form of contract based on blockchain technology. It runs on the blockchain and Can automatically implement the agreement. In recent years, smart contracts have received widespread attention and application and can be used to implement automated business logic in a variety of scenarios. This article will introduce how to use Go language to implement smart contract functions and provide corresponding code examples.

1. Blockchain development library in Go language

Before using Go language to develop smart contracts, we need to choose a suitable blockchain development library. Currently, there are many excellent Go language blockchain development libraries to choose from, such as Ethereum's Go-Ethereum library, Hyperledger Fabric's Fabric SDK Go, etc. This article will take the Go-Ethereum library as an example because it is one of the most widely used Ethereum development libraries.

2. Development and deployment of smart contracts

1. Install the Go-Ethereum library

Before we start, we need to install the Go language and Go- Ethereum library. The corresponding installation documents can be found on the Go language official website and Go-Ethereum official website.

2. Writing smart contracts

In the Go language, we can use the Solidity language interface provided by the Go-Ethereum library to write smart contracts. Solidity is a high-level language for smart contracts running on the Ethereum Virtual Machine, similar to JavaScript. The following is a simple smart contract example:

pragma solidity ^0.8.0;

contract MyContract {
    uint256 public myVariable;

    constructor() {
        myVariable = 0;
    }

    function setMyVariable(uint256 newValue) public {
        myVariable = newValue;
    }
}

This smart contract defines a contract named MyContract, which contains a public variable myVariable and a modifiable Public function setMyVariable for this variable.

3. Deploying smart contracts

Before deploying smart contracts, we need to connect to the Ethereum network first, which can be done through Web3# provided by the Go-Ethereum library ##Object implementation. The following code snippet shows how to connect to the Ethereum network:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "log"
    "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum"
)

func main() {
    client, err := ethclient.Dial("https://ropsten.infura.io/v3/YOUR_INFURA_PROJECT_ID")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    fmt.Println("Connected to Ethereum network")
    // TODO: Deploy smart contract and interact with it
}

YOUR_INFURA_PROJECT_ID with the project ID you created on Infura.

client object to deploy the smart contract. The following code snippet shows how to deploy the smart contract:

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "log"
    "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum"
)

func main() {
    // ...

    // Deploy contract
    contractAddress, tx, _, err := ethereum.DeployContract(context.TODO(),
        client, nil, contractABI, common.FromHex(bytecode))
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    fmt.Printf("Contract deployed at address: %s
", contractAddress.Hex())
    fmt.Printf("Transaction hash: %s
", tx.Hash().Hex())

    // TODO: Interact with smart contract
}

Interacting with smart contracts

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "log"
    "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum"
)

func main() {
    // ...

    // Interact with contract
    contract, err := NewMyContract(contractAddress, client)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    // Call setMyVariable function
    _, err = contract.SetMyVariable(nil, newValue)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    // Get myVariable value
    variable, err := contract.MyVariable(nil)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    fmt.Printf("myVariable value: %d
", variable)
}

NewMyContract function, and then call the corresponding function of the contract. As you can see, we can call smart contract functions just like ordinary Go language functions.
