Quick Start

Installation

The Chainflip SDK is a lightweight npm package. You can install it here:

npm install --save @chainflip/sdk

Set up

To start using the Chainflip SDK, you'll first need to import it and create an instance with the appropriate options:

import { SwapSDK } from "@chainflip/sdk/swap";
import { Wallet } from "ethers";
 
const options = {
  network: "perseverance", // Testnet
  backendUrl: "https://example.chainflip.io",
  signer: Wallet.fromPhrase(process.env.WALLET_MNEMONIC_PHRASE),
  broker: {
    url: 'https://my.broker.io',
    commissionBps: 0, // basis points, i.e. 100 = 1%
  },
};
 
const swapSDK = new SwapSDK(options);

The options object accepts the following properties:
