Working with ledger canister

Deployment

Follow the instructions illustrated in the README.

Notes

  • The ledger canister is deployed through the default account, which is granted a big amount of funds on deployment. The transfer function needs to be called by default account in order to give a specified amount of ICPs to a specified account. You can look at the required parameters for transfer method inside the bid and closeAuction methods. Pay attention at the fact that from_subaccount and to fields are not of type Principal, but of type Blob. You will have to retrieve that Blob by calling the backend method getAccountId from cli. Then you will have to call ledger method transfer with the required args.
  • Pay attention to the TODOs inside bid function. Maybe we need to find a way to call ledger canister from frontend (assuming the second transfer call in bid does not work), but I couldn't find anything about this online.
  • Check the files in scripts to check how ledger is built. Also check Markdown.
