Keywords

The complete reference guide to all Clarity keywords.

block-height

Introduced in: Clarity 1

output: uint

description:

Returns the current block height of the Stacks blockchain in Clarity 1 and 2. Upon activation of epoch 3.0, block-height will return the same value as tenure-height. In Clarity 3, block-height is removed and has been replaced with stacks-block-height.

example:

(> block-height u1000) ;; returns true if the current block-height has passed 1000 blocks.

burn-block-height

Introduced in: Clarity 1

output: uint

description:

Returns the current block height of the underlying burn blockchain.

example:

(> burn-block-height u832000) ;; returns true if the current height of the underlying burn blockchain has passed 832,000 blocks.

chain-id

Introduced in: Clarity 2

output: uint

description:

Returns the 32-bit chain ID of the blockchain running this transaction

example:


contract-caller

Introduced in: Clarity 1

output: principal

description:

Returns the caller of the current contract context. If this contract is the first one called by a signed transaction, the caller will be equal to the signing principal. If contract-call? was used to invoke a function from a new contract, contract-caller changes to the calling contract's principal. If as-contract is used to change the tx-sender context, contract-caller also changes to the same contract principal.

example:


current-contract

Introduced in: Clarity 4

output: principal

description:

Returns the principal of the current contract.

example:


false

Introduced in: Clarity 1

output: bool

description:

Boolean false constant.

example:


is-in-mainnet

Introduced in: Clarity 2

output: bool

description:

Returns a boolean indicating whether or not the code is running on the mainnet

example:


is-in-regtest

Introduced in: Clarity 1

output: bool

description:

Returns whether or not the code is running in a regression test

example:


none

Introduced in: Clarity 1

output: (optional ?)

description:

Represents the none option indicating no value for a given optional (analogous to a null value).

example:


stacks-block-height

Introduced in: Clarity 3

output: uint

description:

Returns the current block height of the Stacks blockchain.

example:


stacks-block-time

This same timestamp can also be retrieved for previous blocks using (get-stacks-block-info? time height), which exists since Clarity 3, but cannot be used for the current block.

Introduced in: Clarity 4

output: uint

description:

Returns the Unix timestamp (in seconds) of the current Stacks block. Introduced in Clarity 4. Provides access to the timestamp of the current block, which is not available with get-stacks-block-info?.

example:


stx-liquid-supply

Introduced in: Clarity 1

output: uint

description:

Returns the total number of micro-STX (uSTX) that are liquid in the system as of this block.

example:


tenure-height

Introduced in: Clarity 3

output: uint

description:

Returns the number of tenures that have passed. At the start of epoch 3.0, tenure-height will return the same value as block-height, then it will continue to increase as each tenures passes.

example:


true

Introduced in: Clarity 1

output: bool

description:

Boolean true constant.

example:


tx-sender

Introduced in: Clarity 1

output: principal

description:

Returns the original sender of the current transaction, or if as-contract was called to modify the sending context, it returns that contract principal.

example:


tx-sponsor?

Introduced in: Clarity 2

output: optional principal

description:

Returns the sponsor of the current transaction if there is a sponsor, otherwise returns None.

example:
