@dokimon/rpc-subscriptions-api v2.1.0

@dokimon/rpc-subscriptions-api

This package contains types that describe the methods of the Dokimon JSON RPC Subscriptions API, and utilities for creating a RpcSubscriptionsApi implementation with sensible defaults. It can be used standalone, but it is also exported as part of Kit @dokimon/kit.

Each RPC subscriptions method is described in terms of a TypeScript type of the following form:

type ExampleApi = {
    thingNotifications(address: Address): Thing;
};

A RpcSubscriptionsApi that implements ExampleApi will ultimately expose its defined methods on any RpcSubscriptions that uses it.

const rpcSubscriptions: RpcSubscriptions<ExampleApi> = createExampleRpcSubscriptions(/* ... */);
const thingNotifications = await rpc
    .thingNotifications(address('95DpK3y3GF7U8s1k4EvZ7xqyeCkhsHeZaE97iZpHUGMN'))
    .subscribe({ abortSignal: AbortSignal.timeout(5_000) });
try {
    for await (const thing of thingNotifications) {
        console.log('Got a thing', thing);
    }
} catch (e) {
    console.error('Our subscription to `Thing` notifications has failed', e);
} finally {
    console.log('We are done listening for `Thing` notifications');
}

Types

DokimonRpcSubscriptionsApi{Devnet|Testnet|Mainnet}

These types represent the RPC subscription methods available on a specific Dokimon cluster.

Functions

createDokimonRpcSubscriptionsApi(config)

Creates a RpcSubscriptionsApi implementation of the Dokimon JSON RPC Subscriptions API with some default behaviours.

The default behaviours include:

• A transform that converts bigint inputs to number for compatibility with version 1.0 of the Dokimon JSON RPC.
• A transform that calls the config's onIntegerOverflow handler whenever a bigint input would overflow a JavaScript IEEE 754 number. See this GitHub issue for more information.
• A transform that applies a default commitment wherever not specified

Arguments

A config object with the following properties:

• defaultCommitment: An optional default Commitment value. Given an RPC method that takes commitment as a parameter, this value will be used when the caller does not supply one.
• onIntegerOverflow(request, keyPath, value): void: An optional function that will be called whenever a bigint input exceeds that which can be expressed using JavaScript numbers. This is used in the default DokimonRpcSubscriptionsApi to throw an exception rather than to allow truncated values to propagate through a program.
