POS client

Important

Make sure you have followed the installation and get started documentation.

The POSClient interacts with the POS bridge.

import { POSClient,use } from "@maticnetwork/maticjs"
import { Web3ClientPlugin } from '@maticnetwork/maticjs-web3'
import HDWalletProvider from "@truffle/hdwallet-provider"

// install web3 plugin
use(Web3ClientPlugin);

const posClient = new POSClient();
await posClient.init({
    network: 'testnet',
    version: 'mumbai',
    parent: {
      provider: new HDWalletProvider(privateKey, mainRPC),
      defaultConfig: {
        from : fromAddress
      }
    },
    child: {
      provider: new HDWalletProvider(privateKey, childRPC),
      defaultConfig: {
        from : fromAddress
      }
    }
});

After the POSClient is initiated, we can work with token types, such as erc20, erc721 etc.

ERC20

Create erc20 child token

const erc20ChildToken = posClient.erc20(<token address>);

Create erc20 parent token

const erc20ParentToken = posClient.erc20(<token address>, true);

Once erc20 is initaited, you can call various methods that are available, like - getBalance, approve, deposit , withdraw etc.

getBalance

const balance = await erc20ChildToken.getBalance(<userAddress>)
console.log('balance', balance)

approve

// approve amount 10 on parent token
const approveResult = await erc20ParentToken.approve(10);

// get transaction hash
const txHash = await approveResult.getTransactionHash();

// get transaction receipt
const txReceipt = await approveResult.getReceipt();

As you can see, with its simple APIs maticjs makes it very easy to interact with maticjs bridge.

Once the POSClient is initiated, you can interact with all available APIs.
