# SDK for Endless Node API

> **_NOTE:_**
> This is the `legacy TypeScript SDK`, aka the npm package `endless`. For a more robust SDK and better support, we recommend upgrading to the `new TypeScript SDK` [@endless-labs/ts-sdk](https://github.com/endless-labs/endless-ts-sdk). Take a look at the [documentation](https://endless.dev/sdks/new-ts-sdk/) and the [migration guide](https://endless.dev/sdks/new-ts-sdk/migration-guide).

The Endless TypeScript SDK provides a convenient way to interact with the Endless blockchain using TypeScript. It offers a set of utility functions, classes, and types to simplify the integration process and enhance developer productivity.

## Installation

##### For use in Node.js or a web application

```ts
pnpm install endless
```

You can also use your preferred npm client, such as yarn or npm.

##### For use in a browser

```ts
<script src="https://unpkg.com/endless@latest/dist/index.global.js" />
```

Then, the SDK can be accessed through `window.endlessSDK`.

## Documentation and examples

- [The Endless documentation site](https://endless.dev/sdks/ts-sdk/index) provides step-by-step instructions, code snippets, and best practices to use this library.
- You can view the generated [Type Doc](https://endless-labs.github.io/ts-sdk-doc/) for the latest release of the SDK.
- For in-depth examples, check out the [examples](./examples) folder with ready-made `package.json` files to get you going quickly!

### Development environment setup

Setup an `.env` file to configure the URLs.
From the [root](https://github.com/endless-labs/endless-core/tree/main/ecosystem/typescript/sdk) of this package, run:

```ts
rm .env
echo 'ENDLESS_NODE_URL="http://localhost:8080/v1"' >> .env
echo 'ENDLESS_FAUCET_URL="http://localhost:8081"' >> .env
```

### Testing

To run the full SDK tests, From the [root](https://github.com/endless-labs/endless-core/tree/main/ecosystem/typescript/sdk) of this package, run:

```ts
pnpm test
```

> If you see strange behavior regarding HTTP clients, try running the tests with `--detectOpenHandles`.

To test a single file in the SDK, From the [root](https://github.com/endless-labs/endless-core/tree/main/ecosystem/typescript/sdk) of this package, run:

```ts
npx jest -- <path/to/file.test.ts>
```

To use the local build in a local project:

```ts
// run from the root of this package
pnpm build
// run on your local project
pnpm add PATH_TO_LOCAL_SDK_PACKAGE
```

### Working with local node

To develop in a local environment, you need to use the SDK from the [main](https://github.com/endless-labs/endless-core/tree/main/ecosystem/typescript/sdk) branch.

Run a local node (run from the root of the [repo](https://github.com/endless-labs/endless-core/)):

```ts
cargo run -p endless -- node run-local-testnet --force-restart --assume-yes
```
