Daml.Runtime

Runtime library for Daml C# code generation. This package provides the base types and serialization support required by C# code generated from Daml templates.

Installation

dotnet add package Daml.Runtime

Usage

This package is automatically referenced by code generated by the Daml C# code generator (e.g. via dpm codegen-cs). You typically don't need to use it directly unless you're:

Building custom serialization logic
Working with the Ledger API directly
Creating utility libraries for Daml contracts

Working with Generated Types

Generated template classes implement ITemplate and provide:

Strongly-typed contract creation
Choice exercise methods
JSON serialization/deserialization
Contract ID types

Given a Daml Iou template with a Transfer choice, the generated code is used like this (taken from the compiled samples/QuickstartExample):

using Daml.Runtime.Commands;
using Daml.Runtime.Data;
using Quickstart;

var alice = new Party("Alice::1220deadbeef");
var charlie = new Party("Charlie::1220deadbeef");

var iou = new Iou(
    Issuer: alice,
    Owner: new Party("Bob::1220deadbeef"),
    Currency: "USD",
    Amount: 1000.00m
);

var createCmd = CreateCommand.For(iou);

var contractId = new Iou.ContractId("00abc123");
var exerciseCmd = ExerciseCommand.For(
    contractId,
    Iou.ChoiceTransfer.Name,
    new Iou.Transfer(NewOwner: charlie).ToRecord());

var submission = CommandsSubmission.Single(createCmd)
    .WithActAs(alice)
    .WithWorkflowId(new WorkflowId("iou-issuance"))
    .WithCommandId(new CommandId(Guid.NewGuid().ToString()));

Manual Serialization

If you need to work with Daml values directly:

using Daml.Runtime.Data;
using Daml.Runtime.Serialization;

var record = DamlRecord.Create(
    DamlField.Create("name", new DamlText("Alice")),
    DamlField.Create("amount", new DamlNumeric(42.5m))
);

var json = DamlJsonSerializer.Serialize(record);

var parsed = DamlJsonSerializer.DeserializeRecord(json);
