Usage

IN paramater refers to whether the 'token in' (token being sold) is the exact token.

const pathfinder = new Pathfinder(1);
pathfinder
  .getTokenPath({
    tokenAddress: "0x967da4048cd07ab37855c090aaf366e4ce1b9f48",
    destinationAddress: "0xa0b86991c6218b36c1d19d4a2e9eb0ce3606eb48",
    IN: true,
  })
  .then((r) => console.log("response", r))
  .catch(console.error);

output

[
  '0x967da4048cd07ab37855c090aaf366e4ce1b9f48',
  '0xc02aaa39b223fe8d0a0e5c4f27ead9083c756cc2',
  '0xa0b86991c6218b36c1d19d4a2e9eb0ce3606eb48'

API

getPoolsForToken

Makes request for pools associated to a token, sets nodes on the graph for each pool. Returns the next tokens to be searched OR null if a path can be made.

pathfinder.getPoolsForToken({
    tokenAddress,
    destinationAddress,
    parentPoolAddress,
    IN,
    amt,
  }: {
    tokenAddress: string;
    destinationAddress: string;
    IN: boolean;
    parentPoolAddress: string;
    amt?: string;
  }): Promise<INextTokensToSearch | null>

getTokenPath

Gets token path for a swap pair. Returns an array of tokens to be traded in order to route to the destination token, optimised to be the shortes path possible.

 pathfinder.getTokenPath({
 tokenAddress,
 destinationAddress,
 parentPoolAddress,
 amt,
 abortSignal,
 IN,
}: {
 tokenAddress: string;
 destinationAddress: string;
 IN: boolean;
 parentPoolAddress?: string;
 amt?: string;
 abortSignal?: AbortSignal;
}): Promise<string[]>

Limitations

Currently the subgraphs being queried are all subgraphs from the most popular dex's on supportedChains:

• uniswap (mainnet)
• quickswap (matic)
• carbonswap (EWT)
• pankackeswap (BSC)
• solarbeam (moonriver)

But there are other pools that are available. Apps like balancer use different pools and subgraphs, and support for these could potentially be added in the future.
