Indexer

Indexers are used by makers to signal their interest in trading and by takers to query for makers with mutual trading interest. Locators are strings used by takers to connect to makers. In the case of Servers, locators are URLs, and in the case of Delegates, locators are contract addresses.
Indexer Client
Add the @airswap/protocols package to your application.
$ yarn add @airswap/protocols
Import the Indexer client.
import { Indexer } from '@airswap/protocols'
constructor
Create a new Indexer client.
public constructor(
  chainId = chainIds.RINKEBY,
  walletOrProvider?: ethers.Wallet | ethers.providers.Provider
)
Param
Type
Optionality
Description
chainId
string
optional
Ethereum chain ID of the network to connect to, either 1 or 4.
walletOrProvider
ethers.Wallet or ethers.providers.Provider
optional
Ethers wallet or provider to use for the contract instance.
Basic Example
Create a client for the Rinkeby Indexer using the default provider.
const indexer = new Indexer()
Custom Provider Example
Create a client for the Mainnet Indexer using an INFURA provider.
import { chainIds } from '@airswap/constants'
const provider = new ethers.providers.InfuraProvider(...)
const indexer = new Indexer(chainIds.MAINNET, provider);
See a list of available providers on the ethers.js documentation.
getLocators
Get a list of string locators by token pair.
public async getLocators(
  signerToken: string,
  senderToken: string,
  protocol = protocols.SERVER,
  limit = 10,
  cursor = INDEX_HEAD
)
): Promise<LocatorResult>
Param
Type
Optionality
Description
signerToken
string
required
Address of a token for the signer side of a trade.
senderToken

const { locators } = await indexer.getLocators(signerToken, senderToken)
Example Query rinkeby Delegates for those selling DAI for WETH. Locators are Delegate contract addresses.
import { protocols } from `@airswap/constants`
const indexer = new Indexer();
const { locators } = await indexer.getLocators(signerToken, senderToken, protocols.DELEGATE);

Indexer Contract
An Indexer is a smart contract to discover trading parties by token pair. View the code on GitHub.
constructor
Create a new Indexer contract.
constructor(
  address indexerStakingToken
) public
Param
Type
Description
indexerStakingToken
address
Address of the token required for staking. Must be a standard ERC20 contract.
createIndex
If none exists, deploy a new Index contract for the given token pair and return its address. If the requested Index already exists, the function just returns its address.
function createIndex(
  address signerToken,
  address senderToken,
  bytes2  protocol
) external returns (address)
Param
Type
Description
signerToken
address
Address of the token transferred from a signer in a trade.
senderToken
address

When a new Index is deployed, createIndex emits a CreateIndex event.
event CreateIndex(
  address signerToken,
  address senderToken,
  bytes2 protocol

addTokenToBlacklist
Add a token to the blacklist. Markets that include a blacklisted token cannot have intents to trade set on them and cannot have locators fetched for them.

A successful addTokenToBlacklist emits a AddTokenToBlacklist event.

The address of the token to remove.
A successful removeTokenFromBlacklist emits a RemoveTokenFromBlacklist event.
event RemoveTokenFromBlacklist(

setIntent
Stake tokens to the Indexer and set an intent to trade. If the caller already has an intent on the specified Index, then the intent is updated to reflect the new stakingAmount and locator.
