About Skuchain and its SDKs ​

Skuchain is a company that provides blockchain-based solutions for supply chain management. They offer various software development kits (SDKs) to facilitate interactions with the Ethereum blockchain and smart contracts.

SDKs ​

  1. skc-trade-sdk: This SDK provides an interface for interacting with the Ethereum blockchain, focusing on preparing transaction data, handling Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) specific errors, and retrieving smart contract details. It is designed to offer a comprehensive interface for Ethereum blockchain interaction, particularly with the CMS (Content Management System).

  2. skc-sdk: This is a TypeScript library for interacting with Ethereum-based smart contracts. It supports preparing transactions, retrieving contract-specific data (such as payment commitments, refutations, and conditions), and managing EVM-related errors. The SDK aims to simplify smart contract interactions and transaction workflows for blockchain applications by allowing lower-level interactions with the EVM node and contracts.

Features ​

Both SDKs offer several features, including:

  • Extending ethers.Contract for simplified event handling, transaction management, and event decoding.
  • Secure key management with integrated Key Management Service (KMS).
  • Database interaction for seamless data storage and querying.
  • Advanced human-readable ABI (Application Binary Interface) interaction features.
  • Generation and management of BIP-39 mnemonic phrases and HD wallets.
  • Connection to Ethereum blockchain networks via JSON-RPC.
  • Written in TypeScript for type safety.

Terminologies ​

  1. KMS (Key Management Service): Manages cryptographic keys and signing operations securely.
  2. ABI (Application Binary Interface): A schema for interacting with Ethereum smart contracts.
  3. Salt: Random data used to enhance encryption processes.
  4. Vault: Secure storage for cryptographic assets.
  5. Transaction Receipt: Logs and status of blockchain transactions.
  6. Log Decoding: Converts blockchain logs to human-readable formats.

These terminologies and features are integral to understanding and utilizing the SDKs provided by Skuchain for blockchain and smart contract interactions.
