'issuefrom' performed with 'createrawsendfrom'

Question

Hi,

In General: I have problems understanding in detail how "issue" in createrawsendfrom works.

More specific: I want to perform
issuefrom 1... 4... {"name":"assetname","open":false} 1 1 0 {"description":"Here goes info"}

with createrawsendfrom

I read "Working with raw transactions" - Issuing assets where it says:

createrawsendfrom 1... '{"1...":{"issue":{"raw":2000}},"1...":{"issue":{"raw":3000}}}' '[{"create":"asset","name":"asset8","multiple":10,"open":true,"details":{"origin":"uk","stage":"one"}}]'

but I have no idea what parameters are possible there and what they mean. I couldn't find a detailled description either. I also want to know how to realize parameters that are possible with issuefrom (especially  quantity, smallest-unit, native-amount and custom-fields) in createrawsendfrom.

Where can I look that up? And how would the issuefrom I posted in the beginning look like as createrawsendfrom?

 

Thanks for your help!

Fair question! If you use createrawsendfrom, you'll be expressing asset quantities in raw (integer) units rather than display units. So in the example you posted:

• The issued quantity would be 500 (total "raw" values divided by "multiple")
• The smallest unit would be 0.1 (1 divided by "multiple")
• The native amount would be zero because you didn't send any native currency in the transaction built with createrawsendfrom
• The custom fields would be {"origin":"uk","stage":"one"}, as per the "details" field.

Please post a comment if anything is still not clear.

Thanks for the great explanation! :)
One thing maybe: Are "create", "name", "multiple", "open" and "details" all possible parameters in createrawsendfrom? If not, is there an overview/list for all these parameters?
