JSON-RPC API

This page contains all Boost API definitions. Interfaces defined here are exposed as JSON-RPC 2.0 endpoints by the boostd daemon.

Go JSON-RPC client

To use the Boost Go client, the Go RPC-API library can be used to interact with the Boost API node.

Import the necessary Go module:

go get github.com/filecoin-project/go-jsonrpc

Create the following script:

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "log"
    "net/http"

    jsonrpc "github.com/filecoin-project/go-jsonrpc"
    boostapi "github.com/filecoin-project/boost/api"
)

func main() {
    authToken := "<value found in ~/.boost/token>"
    headers := http.Header{"Authorization": []string{"Bearer " + authToken}}
    addr := "127.0.0.1:1288"

    var api boostapi.BoostStruct
    closer, err := jsonrpc.NewMergeClient(context.Background(), "ws://"+addr+"/rpc/v0", "Filecoin", []interface{}{&api.Internal, &api.CommonStruct.Internal}, headers)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("connecting with boost failed: %s", err)
    }
    defer closer()

    // Now you can call any API you're interested in.
    netAddrs, err := api.NetAddrsListen(context.Background())
    if err != nil {
      log.Fatalf("calling netAddrsListen: %s", err)
    }
    fmt.Printf("Boost is listening on: %s", netAddrs.Addrs[0])
}

Run go mod init to set up your go.mod file
You should now be able to interact with the Boost API.

Python JSON-RPC client

The JSON-RPC API can also be communicated with programmatically from other languages. Here is an example written in Python. Note that the method must be prefixed with Filecoin.

import requests
import json

def main():
    url = "http://localhost:3051/rpc/v0"
    headers = {'content-type': 'application/json', "Authorization": "Bearer <token>"}
    payload = {
        "method": "Filecoin.BoostOfflineDealWithData",
        "params": [
            "<deal-uuid>",
            "<file-path>",
            True
        ],
        "jsonrpc": "2.0",
        "id": 1,
    }
    response = requests.post(url, data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers)
    print(response.text)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
