Ops:

Virtual Ops:

An operation on Hive is a way of expressing intention on the blockchain. They are also known as Broadcast Operations. They have types, like vote or comment. They pass parameters like author and permlink, depending on what their purpose is.

Operations are grouped into transactions and passed as parameters to methods like network_broadcast_api.broadcast_transaction, in the operations array. Transactions must be signed in order for the blockchain to accept them. Here is an example of a transaction that contains one operation (shown without signatures).

{
   "jsonrpc":"2.0",
   "method":"condenser_api.broadcast_transaction",
   "params":{
      "trx":{

vote

This operation is used to cast a vote on a post/comment. The primary purpose of voting is to express Proof-of-Brain about content to the blockchain. When a vote is cast, the content is considered in the consensus rules involving author and curation rewards.

A secondary aspect to voting involves reputation, which is not part of consensus.

Reputation Rules:

  1. Must have non-negative reputation to effect another user’s reputation.
  2. If you are down voting another user, you must have more reputation than them to impact their reputation.

Notes:

Roles: posting active owner
Parameters: voter author permlink weight
Example Op:
[
  "vote",
  {
    "voter": "hiveio",
    "author": "alice",
    "permlink": "a-post-by-alice",
    "weight": 10000
  }
]

comment

Creates a post/comment.

Parameters:

Rules:

Additional Parameter Definitions:

A typical comment operation would look similar to the below:

{
  "author": "Joe",
  "title": "A post by Joe",
  "body": "Look at my awesome post",
  "parent_author": "",
  "parent_permlink": "hiveio",
  "permlink": "a-post-by-joe",
  "json_metadata": "{\"tags\":[\"hiveio\",\"example\",\"tags\"]}"
}

Create vs. Update

When a comment is first broadcast, the permlink must be unique for the author. Otherwise, it is interpreted as an update operation. Updating will either replace the entire body with the latest operation or patch the body if using diff-match-patch.

For example, if we have a paragraph that has already been broadcast:

“It’s been quite a lot of fun working with these wonderful folk on the Open Hive Network”

And we want to change it to:

“It’s been quite a lot of fun working with these wonderful people on the Open Hive Network”

We can broadcast the comment operation with the following body:

- "@@ -406,12 +406,14 @@"
- ful
- -folk
- +people
- at

The blockchain will know that this means we have changed the word ‘folk’ to ‘people’ within that paragraph so when fetching this content, this diff will be applied.

In addition to body, the title and json_metadata fields will also be replaced by the latest operation.

See: comment_options, vote, custom_json

It should also be noted that a vote operation can accompany a comment and comment_options in the same transaction when the author self votes.

Roles: posting active owner
Parameters: parent_author parent_permlink author permlink title body json_metadata
Example Op:
[
  "comment",
  {
    "parent_author": "",
    "parent_permlink": "hiveio",

transfer_to_vesting

This operation converts HIVE into VFS (Vesting Fund Shares) at the current exchange rate. With this operation it is possible to give another account vesting shares so that faucets can pre-fund new accounts with vesting shares.

Notes:

See: delayed_voting

    }
  }
]

withdraw_vesting

At any given point in time an account can be withdrawing from their vesting shares. A user may change the number of shares they wish to cash out at any time between 0 and their total vesting stake.

After applying this operation, vesting_shares will be withdrawn at a rate of vesting_shares/13 per week for 13 weeks starting one week after this operation is included in the blockchain.

This operation is not valid if the user has no vesting shares.

Notes:

Roles: active owner
Parameters: account vesting_shares

feed_publish

Witnesses regularly publish a price feed that enables the blockchain to calculate a conversion ratio between HBD and HIVE.

Feeds can only be published by the top N witnesses which are included in every round and are used to define the exchange rate between HIVE and the US dollar.

Roles: active owner
Parameters: publisher exchange_rate
Example Op:

witness_update

Users who wish to become a witness must apply for the position and allow voting to begin.

If the owner isn’t a witness they will become a witness. If the block_signing_key is null then the witness is removed from contention. The network will pick the top 21 witnesses for producing blocks.

Notes:

Roles: active owner
Parameters: owner url block_signing_key props fee

    }
  }
]

account_witness_vote

All accounts with a VFS (Vesting Fund Shares) can vote for or against any witness, up to 30 witnesses. See: HIVE_MAX_ACCOUNT_WITNESS_VOTES

If a proxy is specified then all existing votes are removed.

Roles: active owner
Parameters: account witness approve
Example Op:
[
  "account_witness_vote",
  {
    "account": "alice",
    "witness": "bob",
    "approve": true
  }
]

account_witness_proxy

Allows one account to delegate witness votes to another account.

If a proxy is specified then all existing witness votes are removed.

Note, as of HF21, setting a witness proxy also applies to Hive DHF proposal approval. If you trust someone to cast your witness votes, it is assumed that you would also trust them to cast your proposal votes.

Roles: active owner
Parameters: account proxy
Example Op:
[
  "account_witness_proxy",
  {"account": "alice", "proxy": "bob"}
]

pow

Disabled in HF14.

Roles: active owner

custom

Provides a generic way to add higher level protocols on top of witness consensus.

There is no validation for this operation other than that required auths are valid.

Roles: active owner
Parameters: required_auths id data
Example Op:
[
  "custom",
  {
    "required_auths": ["bytemaster"],
    "id": 777,
    "data": "0a627974656d617374657207737465656d697402a3d13897d82114466ad87a74b73a53292d8331d1bd1d3082da6bfbcff19ed097029db013797711c88cccca3692407f9ff9b9ce7221aaa2d797f1692be2215d0a5f6d2a8cab6832050078bc5729201e3ea24ea9f7873e6dbdc65a6bd9899053b9acda876dc69f11a13df9ca8b26b6"
  }
]

witness_block_approve

This is an operation for witnesses to approve the block quicker

Roles: witness_signature
Parameters: required_auths witness block_id

delete_comment

A post or comment can only be deleted when it has no positive rshares applied (i.e., has no pending payout from upvotes) and has no replies. They are not really deleted from the blockchain as they are still recorded in the original block.

Roles: posting active owner
Parameters: author permlink
Example Op:
[
  "delete_comment",
  {
    "author": "alice",
    "permlink": "a-post-by-alice"
  }
]

custom_json

Serves the same purpose as custom but also supports required posting authorities. Unlike custom, this operation is designed to be human readable/developer friendly.

follow

As of HF9, the follow plugin will track follow/unfollow/ignore events.

reblog

As of HF14, allows users to share blogs they find with those who follow them. This change implemented entirely outside the blockchain consensus which means that reblogging does not create a new post, it merely shares an existing post with people who follow you.

witness

As of HF18, the witness plugin has a custom operation called enable_content_editing that allows a user to signal they want to edit their content. By consensus, content is editable indefinitely, but is soft forked to be frozen after payout. This operation requires an active key and is designed to prevent vandalism if a posting key is compromised. #1017

Roles: posting active owner
Parameters: required_auths required_posting_auths id json
Example Op:
[
  "custom_json",
  {
    "required_auths": [],
    "required_posting_auths": ["hiveio"],
    "id": "follow",
    "json": "[\"follow\",{\"follower\":\"hiveio\",\"following\":\"alice\",\"what\":[\"blog\"]}]"
  }
]

[
  "custom_json",
  {
    "required_auths": [],
    "required_posting_auths": ["alice"],
    "id": "follow",
    "json": "[\"follow\",{\"follower\":\"alice\",\"following\":\"eve\",\"what\":[\"ignore\"]}]"
  }
]

[
  "custom_json",
  {
    "required_auths": [],
    "required_posting_auths": ["bob"],
    "id": "reblog",
    "json": "[\"reblog\", {\"account\":\"bob\",\"author\":\"alice\",\"permlink\":\"a-post-by-alice\"}]"
  }
]

[
  "custom_json",
  {
    "required_auths": ["alice"],
    "required_posting_auths": [],
    "id": "witness",
    "json": "[\"enable_content_editing\", {\"account\": \"alice\", \"relock_time\": \"2100-01-01T12:00:00\"}]"
  }
]

comment_options

Authors of posts may not want all of the benefits that come from creating a post. This operation allows authors to update properties associated with their post.

Typically, these options will accompany a comment operation in the same transaction.

As of HF17, content can specify beneficiaries to receive a part of their author rewards. The beneficiaries are specified in the extension field of the comment_options_operation and is a sorted vector (by account name) of account name, weight pairs. The beneficiaries can only be specified once and must be specified before any votes are cast on the comment. Most apps are already adding a comment_options in the transaction that creates the comment, so this should not be much of a challenge to add to existing apps.

set_withdraw_vesting_route

Allows an account to setup a vesting withdraw but with the additional request for the funds to be transferred directly to another account’s balance rather than the withdrawing account. In addition, those funds can be immediately vested again, circumventing the conversion from vests to hive and back, guaranteeing they maintain their value.

Notes:

Roles: active owner
Parameters: from_account to_account percent auto_vest
Example Op:
[
  "set_withdraw_vesting_route",
  {
    "from_account": "alice",

    "percent": 10000,
    "auto_vest": true
  }
]

limit_order_create2

This operation is identical to limit_order_create except it serializes the price rather than calculating it from other fields. The maximum expiration time for any limit order is 28 days from head_block_time().

request_account_recovery

All account recovery requests come from a listed recovery account. This is secure based on the assumption that only a trusted account should be a recovery account. It is the responsibility of the recovery account to verify the identity of the account holder of the account to recover by whichever means they have agreed upon. The blockchain assumes identity has been verified when this operation is broadcast.

This operation creates an account recovery request which the account to recover has 24 hours to respond to before the request expires and is invalidated.

There can only be one active recovery request per account at any one time. Pushing this operation for an account to recover when it already has an active request will either update the request to a new new owner authority and extend the request expiration to 24 hours from the current head block time or it will delete the request. To cancel a request, simply set the weight threshold of the new owner authority to 0, making it an open authority.

Additionally, the new owner authority must be satisfiable. In other words, the sum of the key weights must be greater than or equal to the weight threshold.

This operation only needs to be signed by the the recovery account. The account to recover confirms its identity to the blockchain in the recover account operation.

change_recovery_account

Each account lists another account as their recovery account. The recovery account has the ability to create account_recovery_requests for the account to recover. An account can change their recovery account at any time with a 30 day delay. This delay is to prevent an attacker from changing the recovery account to a malicious account during an attack. These 30 days match the 30 days that an owner authority is valid for recovery purposes.

On account creation the recovery account is set either to the creator of the account (The account that pays the creation fee and is a signer on the transaction) or to the empty string if the account was mined. An account with no recovery has the top voted witness as a recovery account, at the time the recover request is created. Note: This does mean the effective recovery account of an account with no listed recovery account can change at any time as witness vote weights. The top voted witness is explicitly the most trusted witness according to stake.

escrow_transfer

The purpose of this operation is to enable someone to send money contingently to another individual. The funds leave the from account and go into a temporary balance where they are held until from releases it to to or to refunds it to from.

In the event of a dispute the agent can divide the funds between the to/from account. Disputes can be raised any time before or on the dispute deadline time, after the escrow has been approved by all parties.

This operation only creates a proposed escrow transfer. Both the agent and to must agree to the terms of the arrangement by approving the escrow.

The escrow agent is paid the fee on approval of all parties. It is up to the escrow agent to determine the fee.

Escrow transactions are uniquely identified by from and escrow_id, the escrow_id is defined by the sender.

escrow_approve

After creating an escrow transaction, both the receiver or the agent can approve or disapprove the deal. If nobody approves or disapproves the transaction before the deadline date, the funds are returned to the sender.

The agent and to accounts must approve an escrow transaction for it to be valid on the blockchain. Once a party approves the escrow, they cannot revoke their approval. Subsequent escrow approve operations, regardless of the approval, will be rejected.

transfer_to_savings

For time locked savings accounts. A user can place Hive and Hive Dollars into time locked savings balances. Funds can be withdrawn from these balances after a three day delay. The point of this addition is to mitigate loss from hacked and compromised account. The max a user can lose instantaneously is the sum of what the hold in liquid balances. Assuming an account can be recovered quickly, loss in such situations can be kept to a minimum.

See: hive_operations.hpp:988

decline_voting_rights

An account can chose to decline their voting rights after a 30 day delay. This includes voting on content and witnesses. The voting rights cannot be acquired again once they have been declined. This is only to formalize a smart contract between certain accounts and the community that currently only exists as a social contract.

Roles: owner
Parameters: account decline
Example Op:
[
  "decline_voting_rights",

claim_reward_balance

Author and curator rewards are not automatically transferred to the account’s balances. One has to issue a claim_reward_balance operation to trigger the transfer from the reward pool to its balance.

Roles: posting active owner
Parameters: account reward_hive reward_hbd reward_vests
Example Op:
[

    }
  }
]

delegate_vesting_shares

Delegate vesting shares from one account to the other. The vesting shares are still owned by the original account, but content voting rights and resource credit are transferred to the receiving account. This sets the delegation to vesting_shares, increasing it or decreasing it as needed (i.e. a delegation of 0 removes the delegation).

When a delegation is removed the shares are placed in limbo for a week to prevent using them and voting on the same content twice.

Roles: active owner
Parameters: delegator delegatee vesting_shares

[
  "delegate_vesting_shares",
  {

      "precision": 6,
      "nai": "@@000000037"
    }
  }
]

account_create_with_delegation

Deprecated as of HF20 If an account creation service would still like to provide a delegation of Hive Power to the accounts they create, they can still follow the account creation operation with an additional call to delegate_vesting_shares to add a delegation of HP to the account.

Instead of paying the entire account creation fee with Hive, creators can now pay a smaller fee (30x less) and delegate some Hive Power for 30 days. The exact amount is 5 * min_fee + HIVE_POWER == 150 * min_fee. You can pay any combination of HIVE and Hive Power along that curve (so long as the minimum fee is paid).

The witness voted HIVE fee is now the minimum required HIVE fee for delegation. Witnesses should reduce their fee by 30x when the hardfork goes live to preserve the same required fee for an all HIVE account creation.

smt_create

Create a Smart Media Token.

This operation introduces new SMT into blockchain as identified by Numerical Asset Identifier (NAI). Also the SMT precision (decimal points) is explicitly provided.

Initial Case

The first operation to be executed is an smt_create operation. This operation creates an SMT object in the blockchain state. After executing this operation, the newly created SMT object is not yet fully configured.

Most of the configuration occurs in subsequent operations (smt_set_setup_parameters, smt_setup_inflation, and smt_setup). These later operations may occur in the same transaction, but they may also occur at any later point in time.

Reset Case

Re-issuing smt_create with zero smt_creation_fee and the NAI of a token in the initial setup will reset emmisions and setup state. This is useful for token creators who have put their token in an unlaunchable state.

This will allow deleting of emission schedules with and changing of precision if there are no emission objects already created.

Parameters:

See: SMT Object Creation

hardfork_hive

At the point of the Hive hardfork, the only accounts who were not included in the initial airdrop were those containing the Steemit, Inc. ninja-mined stake and those who actively contributed to (and publicly declared support for) the centralization of the Steem Blockchain.

This virual operation tracks the initial consolidation of stake into the treasury, on the above criteria.

Also represents the moment Hive forked from the previous chain.
