Create an Account

Overview​

Creating an account is an essential prerequisite for users who wish to participate in trading activities within the Chromatic Protocol. The createAccount function enables the creation of a new user account, ensuring that each user can have only one account.

ChromaticRouter Interface​

The IChromaticRouter interface serves as the primary interface for interacting with the ChromaticRouter contract. It provides access to the createAccount function, allowing users to create user accounts.

interface IChromaticRouter {
    /**
     * @notice Creates a new user account.
     * @dev Only one account can be created per user.
     *      Emits an `AccountCreated` event upon successful creation.
     */
    function createAccount() external;
}

Account Creation Process​

The account creation process in the Chromatic Protocol involves a single step: calling the createAccount function. Upon successful execution of this function, an AccountCreated event is emitted, signifying the successful creation of a new user account.

Step 1: Call the createAccount Function​

To create an account, users need to invoke the createAccount function of the ChromaticRouter contract. This function does not accept any parameters and can be called directly.

function createAccount() external;

Event: AccountCreated​

Upon successfully creating a new user account, the AccountCreated event is emitted. This event provides information about the account creation, allowing users to track and handle account-related events.

event AccountCreated();
