Strict TypeScript types for Ethereum ABIs. ABIType provides utilities and type definitions for ABI properties and values, covering the [Contract ABI Specification](https://docs.soliditylang.org/en/latest/abi-spec.html), as well as [EIP-712](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-712) Typed Data.
```ts
import type {
AbiParametersToPrimitiveTypes,
ExtractAbiFunction,
ExtractAbiFunctionNames,
} from 'abitype'
import { erc20Abi } from 'abitype/abis'
type FunctionNames = ExtractAbiFunctionNames
// ^? type FunctionNames = "symbol" | "name" | "allowance" | "balanceOf" | "decimals" | "totalSupply"
type TransferInputTypes = AbiParametersToPrimitiveTypes<
// ^? type TransferInputTypes = readonly [`0x${string}`, bigint]
ExtractAbiFunction['inputs']
>
```
Works great for adding blazing fast [autocomplete](https://twitter.com/awkweb/status/1555678944770367493) and type checking to functions, variables, or your own types. No need to generate types with third-party tools – just use your ABI and let TypeScript do the rest!
## TL;DR
ABIType might be a good option for your project if:
- You want to [typecheck](https://abitype.dev/api/types) your ABIs or EIP-712 Typed Data.
- You want to add type inference and autocomplete to your library based on user-provided ABIs or EIP-712 Typed Data, like [Wagmi](https://wagmi.sh) and [Viem](https://viem.sh).
- You need to [convert ABI types](https://abitype.dev/api/utilities#abiparameterstoprimitivetypes) (e.g. `'string'`) to TypeScript types (e.g. `string`) or other type transformations.
- You don’t want to set up a build process to generate types (e.g. TypeChain).

> If you need runtime capabilities like Zod schemas or human-readable ABI parsing and formatting, check out [Ox](https://oxlib.sh).
