Injective
Overview

@interchainjs/injective

Transaction codec and client to communicate with any injective blockchain.

Usage

npm install @interchainjs/injective

Using DirectSigner

Create and use signers for transaction signing and broadcasting:

import { DirectSigner } from '@interchainjs/injective';
import { EthSecp256k1HDWallet } from '@interchainjs/injective';
import { HDPath } from '@interchainjs/types';
 
// Create wallet from mnemonic (Injective uses Ethereum-style addresses)
const wallet = await EthSecp256k1HDWallet.fromMnemonic(mnemonic, {
  derivations: [{
    prefix: "inj",
    hdPath: HDPath.ethereum(0, 0, 0).toString(), // m/44'/60'/0'/0/0
  }]
});
 
const signer = new DirectSigner(wallet, {
  chainId: 'injective-1',
  queryClient: queryClient,
  addressPrefix: 'inj'
});
 
// Sign and broadcast transaction
const result = await signer.signAndBroadcast({
  messages: [{
    typeUrl: '/cosmos.bank.v1beta1.MsgSend',
    value: {
      fromAddress: 'inj1...',
      toAddress: 'inj1...',
      amount: [{ denom: 'inj', amount: '1000000000000000000' }] // 1 INJ
    }
  }],
  fee: {
    amount: [{ denom: 'inj', amount: '500000000000000' }],
    gas: '200000'
  }
});
 
console.log('Transaction hash:', result.transactionHash);

Using with External Wallets

For integration with browser wallets like Keplr or Leap:

import { DirectSigner } from '@interchainjs/injective';
 
// Get offline signer from external wallet
await window.keplr.enable(chainId);
const offlineSigner = window.keplr.getOfflineSigner(chainId);
 
// Create signer with offline signer
const signer = new DirectSigner(offlineSigner, {
  chainId: 'injective-1',
  queryClient: queryClient,
  addressPrefix: 'inj'
});
 
// Use the same signing interface
const result = await signer.signAndBroadcast({
  messages: [/* your messages */],
  fee: { amount: [{ denom: 'inj', amount: '500000000000000' }], gas: '200000' }
});

Implementations

  • DirectSigner: Protobuf-based signing for optimal performance (@interchainjs/injective)
  • AminoSigner: JSON-based signing for legacy compatibility (@interchainjs/injective)
  • EthSecp256k1HDWallet: HD wallet implementation with Ethereum-style addresses (@interchainjs/injective)
  • InjectiveQueryClient: Query client for Injective RPC endpoints (@interchainjs/injective)

Key Features

  • Cosmos Compatibility: Uses Cosmos SDK transaction format with Ethereum-style addresses
  • Unified Interface: Both signers implement IUniSigner with identical methods
  • Flexible Authentication: Works with both direct wallets and external wallets
  • Type Safety: Full TypeScript support with proper type inference
