hts/completeSwap
How to call the API from an app
Hedera Wallet Snap connects to your currently connected Metamask account by default. To learn how apps can connect to Hedera Wallet Snap using a non-metamask(external) account, refer to this documentation.
Then, depending on whether you're trying to connect to a metamask account or a non-metamask account, you can call the snap API in the following way:
const snapId = `npm:@hashgraph/hedera-wallet-snap`
const initiateSwapAPI = async () => {
const externalAccountParams = {
externalAccount: {
accountIdOrEvmAddress: '0.0.12345',
curve: 'ED25519'
}
}
await window.ethereum.request({
method: 'wallet_invokeSnap',
params: {
snapId,
request: {
method: 'hts/completeSwap',
params: {
network: 'testnet',
scheduleId: '0.0.4285081',
/*
Uncomment the below line if you want to connect
to a non-metamask account
*/
// ...externalAccountParams
}
}
}
})
}What the API does
Retrieves the currently connected account the user has selected on Metamask. If it's the first time, a new snap account is created and the account info is saved in snap state.
Parses the arguments that were passed
Uses scheduled transaction to implement the atomic swap feature whereby the
requesterinitiates the swap with theresponderby calling thehts/initiateSwapAPI upon which the snap sends this transaction as a scheduled transaction to the ledger. Within 30 minutes, if therespondercalls this API with the scheduleId of the transaction, the swap is complete.Returns the transaction receipt as response
Example of how the Atomic Swap is performed
Let's assume Alice wants to swap her 1 Hbar with 10 Tuum token that Bob has(basically a peer to peer swap)
Alice calls the snap API for
hts/initiateSwapand as part of the parameters, she says she wants to give her 1 Hbar to Bob if Bob can give Alice 10 Tuum tokensSnap creates this atomic swap transaction and sends it to the network as a scheduled transaction with a max expiry of 30 minutes
Snap returns the schedule Id for this transaction
Alice lets Bob know about this atomic swap transaction and gives him the schedule Id
Bob queries the schedule Id and verifies everything looks good
Bob calls the snap API for
hts/completeSwapwith the schedule IdThe scheduled transaction is executed and the atomic swap transaction is complete
