Rebar SDK

TypeScript SDK for building decentralized data networks with automated logic

Rebar lets you create interconnected data nodes that automatically calculate, trigger actions, and react to changes—all on-chain. Perfect for DeFi strategies, IoT monitoring, financial modeling, and automation workflows.

🚀 Quick Start

npm install @rebar_xyz/sdk

import { RebarClient } from '@rebar_xyz/sdk';

// Connect to network (read-only)
const client = new RebarClient('https://rpc.rebar.xyz');

// Or with wallet for transactions
import { Secp256k1Auth } from '@interchainjs/auth';
import { HDPath } from '@interchainjs/types';

const [wallet] = Secp256k1Auth.fromMnemonic(process.env.MNEMONIC, [HDPath.cosmos(0, 0, 0).toString()]);
const client = new RebarClient('https://rpc.rebar.xyz', wallet, 'rebar1...');

🏗️ Core Concepts

Rebar organizes data into 5 node types that work together:

| Node Type | Purpose | Example | |-----------|---------|---------| | Input | Store live data | Temperature sensor, price feed | | Calculated | Auto-compute from inputs | Moving average, portfolio value | | Function | Execute complex logic | Risk assessment, data processing | | Action | Define external tasks | Send alert, execute trade | | Trigger | Monitor & activate actions | Alert when price > $100 |

📊 Build Your First Network

Example: DeFi Price Monitor

// 1. Create price input (updated by oracle)
const btcPrice = await client.createData({
  name: 'BTC/USD Price',
  description: 'Live Bitcoin price from CoinGecko',
  valueType: 'float',
  value: '45000'
});

// 2. Calculate price threshold (simple calculation)
const priceThreshold = await client.createCalculation({
  name: 'Price Threshold (45k)',
  description: 'Fixed threshold for price alerts',
  inputs: [],
  calculationType: 'expression',
  calculation: '45000.0',
  valueType: 'float'
});

// 3. Define alert action
const alertAction = await client.createAction({
  name: 'Price Alert',
  description: 'Send notification when price changes significantly',
  schema: JSON.stringify({
    type: 'object',
    properties: { 
      message: { type: 'string' },
      price: { type: 'number' }
    }
  }),
  cost: '0',
  completionValidation: 'signer'
});

// 4. Create trigger for price above threshold
const priceTrigger = await client.createTrigger({
  name: 'High Price Alert',
  description: 'Trigger when price exceeds threshold',
  inputs: [btcPrice.address, priceThreshold.address],
  triggerLogic: `${btcPrice.address} > ${priceThreshold.address}`,
  triggerLogicType: 'expression',
  action: alertAction.address
});

// 5. Update price (triggers calculation cascade)
await client.addData({
  address: btcPrice.address,
  value: '47250'
});

🔧 SDK Methods

Node Creation

All creation methods return the transaction response by default, or expanded response with { expanded: true }:

// Input nodes - store updatable data
const sensor = await client.createData({
  name: 'Temperature Sensor',
  valueType: 'float',
  value: '22.5',
  validation: 'signer' // or 'anyone', 'owner'
});

// Calculated nodes - auto-compute from inputs
const fahrenheit = await client.createCalculation({
  name: 'Temperature (°F)',
  inputs: [sensor.address],
  calculationType: 'expression', // or 'starlark'
  calculation: `${sensor.address} * 9/5 + 32`,
  valueType: 'float'
});

// Function nodes - complex logic with state
const processor = await client.createFunction({
  name: 'Temperature Processor',
  calculation: `
def process_temp(temp, state):
    # Simple processing - double the temperature
    return temp * 2.0
return process_temp(${sensor.address}, state)`,
  calculationType: 'starlark',
  inputs: [sensor.address],
  state: JSON.stringify({ lastReading: 0 })
});

// Action nodes - external tasks
const notification = await client.createAction({
  name: 'SMS Alert',
  schema: JSON.stringify({
    type: 'object',
    properties: { 
      recipient: { type: 'string' },
      message: { type: 'string' }
    }
  }),
  cost: '100urebar',
  completionValidation: 'anyone'
});

// Trigger nodes - conditional activation
const trigger = await client.createTrigger({
  name: 'High Temperature Alert',
  inputs: [fahrenheit.address],
  triggerLogic: `${fahrenheit.address} > 85.0`,
  triggerLogicType: 'expression',
  action: notification.address
});

Data Operations

// Read node values (type-safe with generics)
const temp = await client.getValue<number>(sensor.address);
const node = await client.getNode(sensor.address);
const allNodes = await client.getAllNodes();

// Update input nodes
await client.addData({
  address: sensor.address,
  value: '25.3'
});

// Batch updates (more efficient)
await client.addDataBatch([
  { address: sensor1.address, value: '23.1', signer: signerAddress, nonce: 1 },
  { address: sensor2.address, value: '24.8', signer: signerAddress, nonce: 2 }
]);

// One-off calculations (no node creation)
const result = await client.runCalculation({
  valueType: 'float',
  calculationType: 'expression',
  calculation: 'temp * 1.8 + 32',
  inputs: [sensor.address]
});

// Complete triggered actions
await client.completeTriggerAction({
  triggerAddress: trigger.address,
  actionAddress: notification.address
});

📡 Real-time Monitoring

WebSocket support for live updates:

// Watch for new blocks
const blockWatcher = client.watchBlocks(() => {
  console.log('New block mined');
});

// Watch specific nodes for recalculations
const recalcWatcher = client.watchRecalcs([sensor.address, fahrenheit.address], () => {
  console.log('Node values updated');
});

// Watch for trigger activations
const triggerWatcher = client.watchTriggers((event) => {
  console.log(`Trigger ${event.triggerAddress} activated`);
  console.log(`Action needed: ${event.actionAddress}`);
  console.log(`Data: ${event.actionData}`);
}, [trigger.address]); // Optional: filter by trigger

// Clean up
blockWatcher.close();
recalcWatcher.close();
triggerWatcher.close();

🎯 Type Generation CLI

Generate type-safe interfaces for your nodes:

# Initialize config
npx @rebar_xyz/sdk/cli --init

# Edit rebar.config.json
{
  "baseUrl": "https://rpc.rebar.xyz",
  "nodes": {
    "btcPrice": "rebar1abc...",
    "ethPrice": "rebar1def..."
  },
  "output": "./src/rebar-types.ts"
}

# Generate types
npx @rebar_xyz/sdk/cli

Use generated types:

import { btcPrice, ethPrice, type BtcPrice, type EthPrice } from './rebar-types';

// Fully type-safe node access
const currentBtc = await client.getValue<BtcPrice>(btcPrice);
const currentEth = await client.getValue<EthPrice>(ethPrice);
