Signet SDK Overview

The Signet SDK is a comprehensive set of JavaScript/TypeScript libraries designed to simplify development on the Signet network. It provides tools for interacting with Signet’s smart contracts, processing orders, and managing cross-chain transactions.

SDK Components

The Signet SDK consists of several specialized packages, each focused on a specific aspect of development:

signet-zenith

Core bindings for Zenith contracts with utilities for working with AggregateOrders and SignedOrders. Essential for developers working with the Orders system and bundle creation.

signet-bundle

Tools for creating, validating, and submitting bundles to the Signet network. Handles bundle formatting and submission logic.

signet-types

Type definitions and interfaces used throughout the Signet ecosystem. Provides consistent type safety across SDK packages.

signet-rpc

Simplifies interaction with Signet’s RPC endpoints, offering methods to query the network, submit transactions, and retrieve chain data.

signet-evm

EVM-specific utilities for working with Signet’s Ethereum compatibility features. Helpful for developers familiar with Ethereum development.

signet-extract

Data extraction and processing tools to help interpret and work with on-chain data from Signet.

Getting Started

To use the Signet SDK in your project, install the packages you need via npm:

1npm install @signet/zenith @signet/types @signet/rpc

Then import and use them in your code:

 1import { SignedOrder } from '@signet/zenith';
 2import { Wallet } from 'ethers';
 3import { JsonRpcProvider } from '@signet/rpc';
 4
 5// Initialize provider
 6const provider = new JsonRpcProvider('https://rpc.signet.sh');
 7
 8// Create wallet
 9const wallet = new Wallet('your-private-key', provider);
10
11// Example working with orders
12// ...

Common Use Cases

The Signet SDK enables developers to:

  1. Create and Submit Orders: Build applications that allow users to create and manage cross-chain orders
  2. Interact with Smart Contracts: Seamlessly interface with Signet’s core contracts
  3. Build Market-Making Tools: Develop tools to fulfill orders and provide liquidity
  4. Monitor Chain Activity: Track transactions, orders, and events on the Signet network

Best Practices

When working with the Signet SDK:

  • Keep private keys secure and never expose them in client-side code
  • Use TypeScript for improved type safety and development experience
  • Handle errors gracefully, especially for cross-chain operations
  • Test thoroughly on Signet’s testnet before deploying to production
