Soroban DevKit (`sdkt`)

Soroban DevKit is a unified toolkit for Stellar/Soroban development, providing utilities for inspecting contracts, decoding XDR, analyzing storage TTLs, and introspecting network state (transactions, events, and accounts).

Project Overview

sdkt serves as the swiss army knife for Soroban developers, unifying otherwise disconnected tools into a single robust CLI. It communicates natively via Soroban RPC and handles XDR decoding transparently.

Installation

Ensure you have Rust installed (Edition 2021 required), then build from source:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/soroban-devkit
cd soroban-devkit
cargo install --path crates/sdkt-cli

Quick Start

Check a smart contract's raw storage limits:

sdkt inspect CCVVW7N4R3KNY72QJQKQY3T753C2H34E6XJIVJQOQSQE3C3M3U72QJQK

CLI Commands

1. XDR Decoding

Decode a payload into pretty output:

sdkt decode "AAAAAwAAAAE=" --type ScVal --format pretty

2. Contract Inspection

Inspect contract details (returns WASM hash and storage entries count):

sdkt inspect CCVVW7N4R3KNY72QJQKQY3T753C2H34E6XJIVJQOQSQE3C3M3U72QJQK

3. Storage TTL Check

Check remaining storage TTL ledgers for a given contract:

sdkt storage check CCVVW7N4R3KNY72QJQKQY3T753C2H34E6XJIVJQOQSQE3C3M3U72QJQK --format json

4. Transaction Inspection

View detailed network transaction status:

sdkt tx inspect <TRANSACTION_HASH>

5. Event Explorer

Filter and view emitted contract events for auditing:

sdkt events <CONTRACT_ID>

6. Account Inspection

Quick diagnostic of a Stellar network account:

sdkt account <ADDRESS>

JSON Output Example

Most commands support --format json for integration into CI or scripts:

{
  "address": "GXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
  "sequence": null,
  "balances": [],
  "signers": []
}

Workspace Structure

The project is split into independent workspace crates:

sdkt-cli: The command line interface.
sdkt-core: Common configurations and output formats.
sdkt-rpc: Soroban RPC integration layer.
sdkt-storage: Storage analysis routines.
sdkt-xdr: XDR encoding/decoding utilities based on stellar-xdr.

Development

cargo fmt --all
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
cargo test --workspace

Testing

We utilize assert_cmd for CLI integration tests stored under crates/sdkt-cli/tests/. Run them via cargo test --workspace.

Roadmap

Improve robust parsing of raw ContractEvent XDR values.
Integrate full Horizon endpoints for richer Account metadata.
Implement storage estimate commands.
