DEX Server

A TypeScript-based tRPC server for Solana, providing protected API endpoints for building and sponsoring user transactions.

Description

The Server offers a set of tRPC endpoints for various operations centered around building user transactions and sponsoring the SOL required for chain execution fees. It uses Fastify as the underlying web server.

The server provides comprehensive token trading functionality including real-time price tracking, automated fee calculations, and transaction sponsorship. It features WebSocket-based streaming for live price updates and iOS push notifications for price tracking. The system is built with configurability in mind, using Redis for live configuration updates and supporting automated background tasks for maintenance operations.

For price tracking to be enabled, the HASURA_URL and HASURA_ADMIN_SECRET environment variables must be set, and point to a running instance of the DEX GraphQL package. If you would like to use this feature, you will need to run the DEX Indexer stack.

Features

• Transaction building and sponsorship
• Fee calculation and management system
• Solana wallet integration and balance tracking
• JWT-based authentication
• tRPC-based API for type-safe client-server communication
• WebSocket support for real-time updates
• Redis-based configuration management with live updates

• Real-time token price tracking
• Apple Push Notification Service (APNS) integration for iOS live activities

Usage

To run the server:

pnpm start

Example client

const server = createServerClient({
  httpUrl: "http://localhost:8888/trpc",
  wsUrl: "ws://localhost:8888/trpc",
  httpHeaders: () => {
    const jwtToken = useUserStore.getState().jwtToken;
    return {
      Authorization: `Bearer ${jwtToken}`,
    };
  },
});

const results = await server.registerNewUser.mutate({
  username: "test",
  airdropAmount: "100",
});

Configuration

The server can be configured with the following environment variables:

| Variable | Description | Default | | ----------------------- | ------------------------------------- | ----------- | | NODE_ENV | Environment (local, dev, test, prod) | local | | SERVER_HOST | Host that the server listens on | 0.0.0.0 | | SERVER_PORT | Port that the server listens on | 8888 | | REDIS_HOST | Host that the Redis server listens on | localhost | | REDIS_PORT | Port that the Redis server listens on | 6379 | | REDIS_PASSWORD | Password for the Redis server | | | QUICKNODE_ENDPOINT | URL of the Quicknode endpoint | | | QUICKNODE_TOKEN | Token for the Quicknode endpoint | | | JUPITER_URL | Endpoint for the Jupiter V6 Swap API | | | HASURA_URL | URL of the Hasura endpoint | | | HASURA_ADMIN_SECRET | Admin secret for the Hasura endpoint | | | JWT_SECRET | Secret for JWT signing | secret | | PRIVY_APP_SECRET | Secret for Privy app | | | PRIVY_APP_ID | ID for Privy app | | | FEE_PAYER_PRIVATE_KEY | Private key for the fee payer | | | TEST_USER_PRIVATE_KEY | Private key for the test user | | | APPLE_PUSH_KEY_ID | Key ID for Apple Push Notifications | | | APPLE_PUSH_TEAM_ID | Team ID for Apple Push Notifications | | | APPLE_AUTHKEY | Auth key for Apple Push Notifications | |

The server can be further configured with the following Redis variables in default-redis-config.json. Ensure that TRADE_FEE_RECIPIENT is set to the address of the account that will receive the trade fees.

Development

To set up the project for development:

1. Ensure all server-related env variables are set.

2. If Redis is not installed, make sure that NODE_ENV is set to local in the root .env file for Redis to be installed in the prepare step of pnpm install. Refer to prepare script in ./package.json for details.

3. Install dependencies:

   pnpm install

4. To run this application in a standalone environment with Redis, run the following which starts both redis-server and the server application.

pnpm dev:standalone

5. For testing:

   pnpm test

API Endpoints

The server exposes the following tRPC endpoints:

Query Procedures

1. getStatus

   • Description: Returns the current status of the server
   • Response: { status: number }

2. getSolUsdPrice

   • Description: Returns the current SOL/USD price
   • Response: number

3. getSolBalance

   • Description: Gets user's SOL balance
   • Response: number

4. getAllTokenBalances

   • Description: Gets all token balances for user
   • Response: Array of token balances

5. getTokenBalance

   • Description: Gets balance for specific token
   • Input: { tokenMint: string }

6. fetchSwap

   • Description: Fetches a constructed swap transaction for the user. This transaction will need to be signed by the user, then sent to the server via submitSignedTransaction.
   • Input: { buyTokenId: string, sellTokenId: string, sellQuantity: number, slippageBps?: number }

7. fetchPresignedSwap

   • Description: Fetches swap transaction pre-signed by the server's fee payer. This transaction will need to be signed by the user but can be submitted to any Solana node.
   • Input: { buyTokenId: string, sellTokenId: string, sellQuantity: number }

8. getEstimatedTransferFee

   • Description: Gets estimated fee for transferring USDC to a different address
   • Response: Fee estimate in USDC base units

9. fetchTransferTx

   • Description: Fetches a constructed transfer transaction for the user. This transaction will need to be signed by the user, then sent to the server via submitSignedTransaction.
   • Input: { toAddress: string, amount: string, tokenId: string }

Subscription Procedures

1. subscribeSolPrice

   • Description: Real-time SOL price updates
   • Response: Stream of price updates

2. swapStream [deprecated]

   • Description: Real-time swap quote updates. Currently deprecated and unused, but could be used in the future for real-time updates.
   • Input: { request: { buyTokenId: string, sellTokenId: string, sellQuantity: number } }

Mutation Procedures

1. submitSignedTransaction

   • Description: Submits a signed transaction to the server. This transaction will be sponsored by the server's fee payer and submitted to the Solana network.
   • Input: { signature: string, base64Transaction: string }

2. updateSwapRequest [deprecated]

   • Input: { buyTokenId: string, sellTokenId: string, sellQuantity: number }

3. stopSwapStream [deprecated]

   • Description: Stops an active swap stream
   • Response: void

   • Input: { tokenMint: string, tokenPriceUsd: string, deviceToken: string, pushToken: string }

5. stopLiveActivity

   • Description: Stops live price tracking
   • Response: { success: boolean }

Testing

Before running tests on the server, first create a .env.test file with the appropriate environment variables. See example.env.test for an example.

1. Run the following to start the server:

   pnpm dev:standalone

2. Then run the following command to start tests:

   pnpm test

Testing Transactions Setup

You can test transactions by running the service.test.ts file.

1. You may need to manually remove any .skip flags from the tests you want to run. These are placed there to prevent the tests from being run on every commit.

2. Ensure that your FEE_PAYER has a few dollars worth of SOL in it to pay for the chain fees. If this is not met, the test transactions will fail.

3. Ensure that your FEE_PAYER has an existing USDC ATA that has a rent-exempt balance (currently 0.002039 SOL). If this is not met, the test transactions will fail.

4. Optionally, you can change the token being traded in the tests by editing MEMECOIN_MAINNET_PUBLIC_KEY in src/constants/tokens.ts.

5. Check that the dev server is still running, then run the test file with the following command:

   pnpm test service.test.ts
