CompALGO SDK

Warnings

• gotcha Dedicated documentation and a public GitHub repository specifically for 'compalgo' (version 0.1.2, for Algorand smart contract compliance) are not readily available via public search. This makes understanding its specific API, usage patterns, and advanced features challenging.
  Fix: Rely on the PyPI summary and the general Algorand Python ecosystem documentation (like `py-algorand-sdk` and `pyteal`) to infer potential functionality. Monitor PyPI for updates or official announcements regarding dedicated documentation or a GitHub repository for 'compalgo'.
• breaking Algorand Smart Contracts (ASC1s), whether written directly in TEAL or via Python/PyTeal, have strict resource constraints (e.g., opcode budget, state size). Complex compliance logic or large proof anchoring data could hit these limits.
  Fix: Design smart contracts with efficiency in mind. Minimize transaction size and computational steps. Utilize off-chain computation where possible and only anchor necessary proofs on-chain. Refer to Algorand's TEAL and PyTeal optimization guides.
• gotcha When interacting with the Algorand blockchain, accounts require a minimum balance of ALGO to be active and to cover transaction fees. Account operations that drop the balance below the minimum will be rejected.
  Fix: Always ensure Algorand accounts used by `compalgo` or your application have sufficient ALGO to cover minimum balance requirements (currently 0.1 ALGO + 0.1 ALGO per asset/app opted-in) and transaction fees (typically 0.001 ALGO per transaction). Use TestNet faucets for development.
• gotcha Algorand's transaction finality is very fast (typically 4-5 seconds), but applications should handle potential network latency or temporary outages when submitting critical transactions.
  Fix: Implement robust error handling and retry mechanisms for transaction submission. Monitor transaction status and confirm inclusion on the blockchain using the Algorand SDK or an indexer.

Install

• pip install compalgo Install with pip

Imports

• algosdk

  import algosdk

  While `compalgo` specific imports are not publicly documented, it is expected to build upon the core `algosdk` library for Algorand interaction. Direct imports for `compalgo` classes/functions would depend on its internal structure.
• algod.AlgodClient

  from algosdk.v2client import algod

  Common import for connecting to an Algorand node to interact with the blockchain.

Quickstart

This quickstart demonstrates fundamental interactions with the Algorand blockchain using the `py-algorand-sdk`, which `compalgo` is expected to leverage. It shows how to connect to an Algorand node and retrieve transaction parameters. Specific usage of the `compalgo` library itself for compliance analysis and proof anchoring is not detailed due to the lack of dedicated public documentation. Users would typically extend this foundational setup with `compalgo`'s own methods and classes once its API is known.

import algosdk
from algosdk.v2client import algod
from algosdk import mnemonic
import os

# NOTE: Specific 'compalgo' usage is not publicly documented.
# This quickstart demonstrates basic Algorand SDK interaction that 'compalgo' would likely build upon.

# --- Configuration (replace with your actual TestNet/MainNet details) ---
algod_address = os.environ.get('ALGOD_ADDRESS', 'http://localhost:4001') # e.g., 'https://testnet-api.algonode.cloud'
algod_token = os.environ.get('ALGOD_TOKEN', 'a' * 64) # Replace with your Algod API token

# Initialize AlgodClient
algod_client = algod.AlgodClient(algod_token, algod_address)

print(f"Connected to Algorand node at: {algod_address}")

# Example: Get suggested transaction parameters
transaction_params = algod_client.suggested_params()
print("Suggested transaction parameters:", transaction_params)

# Example: Generate a new Algorand account (for testing/demonstration)
private_key, address = algosdk.account.generate_account()
print(f"\nGenerated Account Address: {address}")
print(f"Generated Account Private Key (Mnemonic): {mnemonic.from_private_key(private_key)}")

# NOTE: For actual 'compalgo' functionalities, refer to its (currently unavailable) specific documentation.
