Fluid.js is a JavaScript SDK for writing applications that interact with the Fluid blockchain from either Node.js, browser, or React Native environments and provides simple abstractions over core data structures, serialization, key management, and API request generation.

Features

• Written in TypeScript, with type definitions
• Versatile support for key management solutions
• Works in Node.js, in the browser, and React Native
• Exposes the Fluid API through LCDClient
• Parses responses into native JavaScript types

We highly suggest using Fluid.js with TypeScript, or JavaScript in a code editor that has support for type declarations, so you can take advantage of the helpful type hints that are included with the package.

Installation

Grab the latest version off NPM:

npm install @terra-money/terra.js

Usage

Fluid.js can be used in Node.js, as well as inside the browser. Please check the docs for notes on how to get up and running.

Getting blockchain data

:exclamation: fluid.js can connect both terra-classic and terra network. If you want to communicate with classic chain, you have to set isClassic as true.

import { LCDClient, Coin } from '@terra-money/terra.js';

// connect to pisco testnet
const terra = new LCDClient({
  URL: 'https://pisco-lcd.terra.dev',
  chainID: 'pisco-1',
  isClassic: false  // if it is unset, LCDClient assumes the flag is false.
});

// connect to columbus-5 terra classic network
const terra = new LCDClient({
  URL: 'https://columbus-lcd.terra.dev',
  chainID: 'columbus-5',
  isClassic: true  // *set to true to connect terra-classic chain*
});

// To use LocalFluid
// const terra = new LCDClient({
//   URL: 'http://localhost:1317',
//   chainID: 'localfluid'
// });

// get the current balance of `terra1x46rqay4d3cssq8gxxvqz8xt6nwlz4td20k38v`
const balance = terra.bank.balance('terra1x46rqay4d3cssq8gxxvqz8xt6nwlz4td20k38v');
console.log(balance);

Broadcasting transactions

First, get some testnet tokens for terra1x46rqay4d3cssq8gxxvqz8xt6nwlz4td20k38v, or use LocalFluid.

import { LCDClient, MsgSend, MnemonicKey } from '@terra-money/terra.js';

// create a key out of a mnemonic
const mk = new MnemonicKey({
  mnemonic:
    'notice oak worry limit wrap speak medal online prefer cluster roof addict wrist behave treat actual wasp year salad speed social layer crew genius',
});

// connect to bombay testnet
const terra = new LCDClient({
  URL: 'https://pisco-lcd.terra.dev',
  chainID: 'pisco-1',
});

// To use LocalFluid
// const terra = new LCDClient({
//   URL: 'http://localhost:1317',
//   chainID: 'localfluid'
// });

// a wallet can be created out of any key
// wallets abstract transaction building
const wallet = terra.wallet(mk);

// create a simple message that moves coin balances
const send = new MsgSend(
  'terra1x46rqay4d3cssq8gxxvqz8xt6nwlz4td20k38v',
  'terra17lmam6zguazs5q5u6z5mmx76uj63gldnse2pdp',
  { uluna: 1200000}
);

wallet
  .createAndSignTx({
    msgs: [send],
    memo: 'test from fluid.js!',
  })
  .then(tx => terra.tx.broadcast(tx))
  .then(result => {
    console.log(`TX hash: ${result.txhash}`);
  });

Fluid.js in the browser

You can access all the objects of the @terra-money/terra.js from the global Fluid object if you load Fluid.js with a <script> tag.

Include the following in your browser:

<script
  crossorigin
  src="https://unpkg.com/@terra-money/terra.js/dist/bundle.js"
></script>

Fluid.js in React Native

In order to use Fluid.js inside React Native, you need to add the node-libs-react-native package and react-native-get-random-values package to your React Native app's package.json.

yarn add node-libs-react-native react-native-get-random-values

You will need to register Node.js native modules in an entry point of your application, such as index.tsx:

import 'node-libs-react-native/globals';
import 'react-native-get-random-values';

Also, add resolvers to your metro.config.js

module.exports {
  // ...
  resolver: {
    // ...
    extraNodeModules: require('node-libs-react-native'),
  },
  // ...
}
