TypeDoc style documentation is available on-line here

General Information

Sapling is a protocol allowing to perform private transactions in a decentralized environment. This package allows to read from a sapling state (retrieve the balance and transaction history) and prepare sapling transactions.

Install

Install the package as follows

npm install @taquito/sapling

Usage

Retrieve a balance in the Sapling shielded pool

The returned balance is in mutez.

import { TezosToolkit, RpcReadAdapter } from '@taquito/taquito';
import { SaplingToolkit, InMemorySpendingKey } from '@taquito/sapling';

const tezos = new TezosToolkit('https://jakartanet.ecadinfra.com/');

const saplingContract = await tezos.contract.at('KT1UYwMR6Q6LZnwQEi77DSBrAjKT1tEJb245');

const inMemorySpendingKey = await InMemorySpendingKey.fromMnemonic('YOUR_MNEMONIC');

const readProvider = new RpcReadAdapter(tezos.rpc);

const saplingToolkit = new SaplingToolkit(
    { saplingSigner: inMemorySpendingKey }, 
    { contractAddress: saplingContract.address, memoSize: 8 }, 
    readProvider
)

const txViewer = await saplingToolkit.getSaplingTransactionViewer();
const initialBalance = await txViewer.getBalance();

Prepare a shielded transaction

A shielded transaction allows sending tokens from a Tezos account (tz1, tz2, tz3) to a Sapling address (zet).

import { TezosToolkit, RpcReadAdapter } from '@taquito/taquito';
import { SaplingToolkit, InMemorySpendingKey } from '@taquito/sapling';

const tezos = new TezosToolkit('https://jakartanet.ecadinfra.com/');
// set up your signer on the TezosToolkit as usual
const saplingContract = await tezos.contract.at('KT1UYwMR6Q6LZnwQEi77DSBrAjKT1tEJb245');

const inMemorySpendingKey = await InMemorySpendingKey.fromMnemonic('YOUR_MNEMONIC');

const readProvider = new RpcReadAdapter(tezos.rpc);

const saplingToolkit = new SaplingToolkit(
    { saplingSigner: inMemorySpendingKey }, 
    { contractAddress: saplingContract.address, memoSize: 8 }, 
    readProvider
)

// Fetch a payment address (zet)
const inMemoryViewingKey = await inMemorySpendingKey.getSaplingViewingKeyProvider();
const paymentAddress = (await inMemoryViewingKey.getAddress()).address;

// prepare the shielded transaction
const shieldedTx = await saplingToolkit.prepareShieldedTransaction([{
    to: paymentAddress,
    amount: 3,
    memo: 'test',
    mutez: false // set to false by default
}])

// Inject the sapling transaction using the ContractAbstraction
// The amount MUST be specified in the send method to transfer the 3 tez to the shielded pool
const op = await saplingContract.methods.default([shieldedTx]).send({ amount: 3 });
await op.confirmation();
