This PR implements the [transaction_unstable_broadcast](https://github.com/paritytech/json-rpc-interface-spec/blob/main/src/api/transaction_unstable_broadcast.md) and [transaction_unstable_stop](https://github.com/paritytech/json-rpc-interface-spec/blob/main/src/api/transaction_unstable_stop.md). The [transaction_unstable_broadcast](https://github.com/paritytech/json-rpc-interface-spec/blob/main/src/api/transaction_unstable_broadcast.md) submits the provided transaction at the best block of the chain. If the transaction is dropped or declared invalid, the API tries to resubmit the transaction at the next available best block. ### Broadcasting The broadcasting operation continues until either: - the user called `transaction_unstable_stop` with the operation ID that identifies the broadcasting operation - the transaction state is one of the following: - Finalized: the transaction is part of the chain - FinalizedTimeout: we have waited for 256 finalized blocks and timedout - Usurped the transaction has been replaced in the tx pool The broadcasting retires to submit the transaction when the transaction state is: - Invalid: the transaction might become valid at a later time - Dropped: the transaction pool's capacity is full at the moment, but might clear when other transactions are finalized/dropped ### Stopping The `transaction_unstable_broadcast` spawns an abortable future and tracks the abort handler. When the [transaction_unstable_stop](https://github.com/paritytech/json-rpc-interface-spec/blob/main/src/api/transaction_unstable_stop.md) is called with a valid operation ID; the abort handler of the corresponding `transaction_unstable_broadcast` future is called. This behavior ensures the broadcast future is finishes on the next polling. When the `transaction_unstable_stop` is called with an invalid operation ID, an invalid jsonrpc specific error object is returned. ### Testing This PR adds the testing harness of the transaction API and validates two basic scenarios: - transaction enters and exits the transaction pool - transaction stop returns appropriate values when called with valid and invalid operation IDs Closes: https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3039 Note that the API should be enabled after: https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3084. cc @paritytech/subxt-team --------- Signed-off-by: Alexandru Vasile <alexandru.vasile@parity.io> Co-authored-by: Sebastian Kunert <skunert49@gmail.com>
Substrate
Substrate is a next-generation framework for blockchain innovation 🚀.
Getting Started
Head to docs.substrate.io and follow the installation
instructions. Then try out one of the tutorials. Refer to the Docker
instructions to quickly run Substrate, Substrate Node Template, Subkey, or to build a chain spec.

License
- Substrate Primitives (
sp-*), Frame (frame-*) and the pallets (pallets-*), binaries (/bin) and all other utilities are licensed under Apache 2.0. - Substrate Client (/client/*/sc-*) is licensed under GPL v3.0 with a classpath linking exception.
The reason for the split-licensing is to ensure that for the vast majority of teams using Substrate to create feature-chains, then all changes can be made entirely in Apache2-licensed code, allowing teams full freedom over what and how they release and giving licensing clarity to commercial teams.
In the interests of the community, we require any deeper improvements made to Substrate's core logic (e.g. Substrate's internal consensus, crypto or database code) to be contributed back so everyone can benefit.
