JLibra
A Java library for building applications on Diem
The project previously know as Libra has been renamed to Diem. Read more about it from here: Announcing the name Diem. JLibra is still in the process of renaming all the references to the old name but all the features are functional despite the old naming in some places.
The API for creating transactions and querying the database of Diem uses json-rpc - a simple remote procedure call protocol utilizing JSON for encoding data. Sending new transactions to the Diem network requires also another type of serialization - the Object Canonical Serialization. JLibra implements both of these and provides a simple api for Java applications to integrate to Diem.
JLibra simplifies integration to Diem but does not hide any features of the Diem api, this makes it possible to implement anything supported by Diem with Java.
Prerequisites
- JDK 11+
