Contracting - Smart Contracts in Python

Contracting is a smart contracting library. Unlike Bitcoin and Ethereum, Contracting leverages the existing PythonVM to create a system that allows developers to write small applications for the types of logic we see in smart contracts today. This generally has to do with simple logical transactions. Contracting focuses on making standard CRUD operations extremely easy with full support for JSON objects and dynamic storage sizing so you spend less time with lower level computer science details and more time coding.

Example

def token_contract():
     balances = Hash()
     owner = Variable()
     
     @construct
     def seed():
         owner.set(ctx.caller)

     @export
     def balance_of(wallet_id):
         return balances[wallet_id]

     @export
     def transfer(to, amount):    
         sender_balance = balances[ctx.caller]

         assert sender_balance >= 0, "Sender balance must be non-negative!!!"
         
         balances[ctx.caller] -= amount
         balances[to] += amount

     @export
     def mint(to, amount):
         assert ctx.caller == owner.get(), 'Only the original contract author can mint!'
         balances[to] += amount
