Structs​

struct TxContext​

Information about the transaction currently being executed. This cannot be constructed by a transaction. It is a privileged object created by the VM and passed in to the entrypoint of the transaction as &mut TxContext.

public struct TxContext has drop
Fields
sender: address

The address of the user that signed the current transaction

tx_hash: vector<u8>

Hash of the current transaction

epoch: u64

The current epoch number

epoch_timestamp_ms: u64

Timestamp that the epoch started at

ids_created: u64

Counter recording the number of fresh id's created while executing this transaction. Always 0 at the start of a transaction

pub digest​

Return the transaction digest (hash of transaction inputs). Please do not use as a source of randomness.

public fun digest(_self: &iota::tx_context::TxContext): &vector
Implementation
public fun digest(_self: &TxContext): &vector {
    native_digest()
}

pub epoch​

Return the current epoch

public fun epoch(_self: &iota::tx_context::TxContext): u64
Implementation
public fun epoch(_self: &TxContext): u64 {
    native_epoch()
}

pub epoch_timestamp_ms​

Return the epoch start time as a unix timestamp in milliseconds.

public fun epoch_timestamp_ms(_self: &iota::tx_context::TxContext): u64
Implementation
public fun epoch_timestamp_ms(_self: &TxContext): u64 {
    native_epoch_timestamp_ms()
}

pub fresh_object_address​

Create an address that has not been used. As it is an object address, it will never occur as the address for a user. In other words, the generated address is a globally unique object ID.

public fun fresh_object_address(_ctx: &mut iota::tx_context::TxContext): address
Implementation
public fun fresh_object_address(_ctx: &mut TxContext): address {
    fresh_id()
}

pub gas_budget​

Return the gas budget for the current transaction.

public fun gas_budget(_self: &iota::tx_context::TxContext): u64
Implementation
public fun gas_budget(_self: &TxContext): u64 {
    native_gas_budget()
}

pub gas_price​

Return the gas price submitted for the current transaction. That is the value the user submitted with the transaction data.

public fun gas_price(_self: &iota::tx_context::TxContext): u64
Implementation
public fun gas_price(_self: &TxContext): u64 {
    native_gas_price()
}

pub reference_gas_price​

Return the reference gas price in effect for the epoch the transaction is being executed in.

public fun reference_gas_price(_self: &iota::tx_context::TxContext): u64
Implementation
public fun reference_gas_price(_self: &TxContext): u64 {
    native_rgp()
}

pub sender​

Return the address of the user that signed the current transaction

public fun sender(_self: &iota::tx_context::TxContext): address
Implementation
public fun sender(_self: &TxContext): address {
    native_sender()
}

pub sponsor​

Return the address of the transaction sponsor or None if there was no sponsor.

public fun sponsor(_self: &iota::tx_context::TxContext): std::option::Option<address>
Implementation
public fun sponsor(_self: &TxContext): Option<address> {
    option_sponsor()
}
