Typescript

SDK for the ParaSwap API

Refer to the documentation of the ParaSwap API: https://developers.paraswap.network

Features

Versatility: works with both web3 and ethers without direct dependency

Canonical: bring only the functions you actually need

Lightweight: 400B Gzipped for the minimal variant

Installing ParaSwap SDK

yarn add @paraswap/sdk

Using ParaSwap SDK

There are multiple ways to use ParaSwap SDK, ranging from a simple construct-and-use approach to a fully composable bring what you need approach which allows for advanced tree-shaking and minimizes bundle size.

Simple SDK

Can be created by providing chainId and either axios or window.fetch (or alternative fetch implementation). The resulting SDK will be able to use all methods that query the API.

  import { constructSimpleSDK } from '@paraswap/sdk';
  import axios from 'axios';

  // construct minimal SDK with fetcher only
  const paraSwapMin = constructSimpleSDK({chainId: 1, axios});
  // or
  const paraSwapMin = constructSimpleSDK({chainId: 1, fetch: window.fetch});

  const ETH = '0xeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee';
  const DAI = '0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F';

  async function swapExample() {
    //                                     or any other signer/provider 
    const signer: JsonRpcSigner = ethers.Wallet.fromMnmemonic('__your_mnemonic__');
    const senderAddress = signer.address;

    const priceRoute = await paraSwapMin.swap.getRate({
      srcToken: ETH,
      destToken: DAI,
      amount: srcAmount,
      userAddress: senderAddress,
      side: SwapSide.SELL,
    });

    const txParams = await paraSwapMin.swap.buildTx(
      {
        srcToken,
        destToken,
        srcAmount,
        destAmount,
        priceRoute,
        userAddress: senderAddress,
        partner: referrer,
      }     
    );

    const transaction = {
      ...txParams,
      gasPrice: '0x' + new BigNumber(txParams.gasPrice).toString(16),
      gasLimit: '0x' + new BigNumber(5000000).toString(16),
      value: '0x' + new BigNumber(txParams.value).toString(16),
    };

    const txr = await signer.sendTransaction(transaction);
  }


  async function approveTokenYourselfExample() {
    const TransferProxy = await paraSwapMin.swap.getSpender();

    const DAI_CONTRACT = new ethers.Contract(DAI, ERC20_ABI, ethersSignerOrProvider);

    const tx = await DAI_CONTRACT.approve(TransferProxy, amountInWei);

    const txReceipt = await tx.wait(1);
  }

If optional providerOptions is provided as the second parameter, then the resulting SDK will also be able to approve Tokens for swap.

Composed SDK

Import the necessary functions

Construct the ParaSwap object

To approve ParaSwap contracts to swap an ERC20 token

To get the rate of a token pair

Where priceRoute contains the rate and the distribution among exchanges, checkout the OptimalRates type for more details.

To build a transaction

To sign a Limit Order

Bundle Optimization

For bundle-size savvy developers, you can construct a lightweight version of the SDK and bring only the functions you need.

e.g. for only getting rates and allowances:

Legacy

The ParaSwap class is exposed for backwards compatibility with previous versions of the SDK.

Or you can use ethers in place of web3

By analogy to constructPartialSDK, you can leverage a lightweight version of the sdk for fetching only.

Refer to this README for depecreated documentation for functions usage.

Refer to SDK API documentation for detailed documentation on the methods provided in this SDK.

Tests

To run yarn test it is necessary to provide PROVIDER_URL=<mainnet_rpc_url> environment variable. If it is necessary to run tests against a different API endpoint, provide API_URL=url_to_API environment variable.
