🚀 Usage

How to get a SolanaFM IdlItem to start parsing a transaction or account state for a particular program:

import { getProgramIdl } from "@solanafm/explorer-kit-idls";

const programId = "PhoeNiXZ8ByJGLkxNfZRnkUfjvmuYqLR89jjFHGqdXY";
// Get the IDL for a specific program hash
const SFMIdlItem = await getProgramIdl(programId);
// You can also get an IDL at a specific slot context if you're trying to histroically parse a transaction / account
// but the IDL might not be backwards compatible.
const historicalSFMIdlItem = await getProgramIdl(programId, {
    slotContext: 132322893,
});

Parsing a transaction:

import { SolanaFMParser. checkIfInstructionParser, ParserType } from "@solanafm/explorer-kit"
import { getProgramIdl } from "@solanafm/explorer-kit-idls";

const programId = "PhoeNiXZ8ByJGLkxNfZRnkUfjvmuYqLR89jjFHGqdXY";
// Get the IDL for a specific program hash
const SFMIdlItem = await getProgramIdl(programId);
// You can also get an IDL at a specific slot context if you're trying to histroically parse a transaction / account
// but the IDL might not be backwards compatible.
const historicalSFMIdlItem = await getProgramIdl(programId, {
    slotContext: 132322893,
});
// For now, we only support parsing transactions with an encoded base 58 message
const ixData = "1AMTAauCh9UPEJKKd6LnGGtWqFvRs2aUZkv9r6wNe3PTzB1KS9TbwYzM8Cp7vUSDYZXTxXJp5M"
// Checks if SFMIdlItem is defined, if not you will not be able to initialize the parser layout
if (SFMIdlItem) {
    const parser = new SolanaFMParser(SFMIdlItem);
    const instructionParser = parser.createParser(ParserType.INSTRUCTION);

    if (instructionParser && checkIfInstructionParser(instructionParser)) {
        // Parse the transaction
        const decodedData = parser.parseTransaction(ixData);
    }
}

Parsing an event data:

import { SolanaFMParser. checkIfEventParser, ParserType } from "@solanafm/explorer-kit"

// For event data they have to base-64 encoded and they can be extracted from logs or a inner instruction with CPI logs. 
// Phoenix Program Event Data
const eventData = "DwEABF2SDQAAAABDfDtlAAAAAKiVfA0AAAAAL9p3EN7QVm+wCbiCUn2jVyJyazsZQYgqVRhf6h2a/pX5SjR+9eBu2sQU7NYr1TEeH7vRFNOiXSyDLJ9g+fDJrwMAAgAABPzrK7CsLqR5NiVFXYwyp7QgatDNQXbn3JA8wOVXQfANFxMTAAAAAIB/AAAAAAAAg7MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIBAAT86yuwrC6keTYlRV2MMqe0IGrQzUF259yQPMDlV0HwDhcTEwAAAACCfwAAAAAAAByBAAAAAAAA6EwCAAAAAAAGAgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAnzQBAAAAAABzEb6ZAAAAALveBwAAAAAA"
const parser = new SolanaFMParser(SFMIdlItem);
const eventParser = parser.createParser(ParserType.EVENT);

if (eventParser && checkIfEventParser(eventParser)) {
    // Parse the transaction
    const decodedData = parser.parseEvents(eventData);
}

Parsing an account data:

import { SolanaFMParser. checkIfAccountParser, ParserType } from "@solanafm/explorer-kit"

// Account data have to be base-64 encoded
// Stake Pool Account Data
const accountData = "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";

const parser = new SolanaFMParser(SFMIdlItem);
const eventParser = parser.createParser(ParserType.ACCOUNT);

if (eventParser && checkIfAccountParser(eventParser)) {
    // Parse the transaction
    const decodedData = parser.parseAccount(accountData);
}

Once the data is parsed, the returned data type will look something like this

export type ParserOutput = {
  // The name of the struct that's being used to parse the data
  name: string;
  // The parsed data according to the IDL schema   
  data: any;
  // ParserType depends on the type of parser you have initialized  
  type: ParserType;
} | null;

More to be added soon...

Caveats and Limitations

• IDLs found in @solanafm/explorer-kit-idls are usually IDLs for programs that are immutable and are not expected to change. These IDLs can be imported directly from the package and used in your project without interacting with our API. If you wish to get the latest IDLs that might be on chain, getProgramIdl() will do a API call to our API to query for the relevant IDLs
• Account and Event parsers only takes in a base64 encoded string at the moment
• Instruction parsers only takes in a base58 encoded string at the moment

Credits

Explorer Kit is hugely inspired and built upon Kinobi. Without Kinobi, Explorer Kit would not have been possible at it's current iteration.

Also, huge thanks to the following projects and engineers for making this possible:

• Loris - For all the work and help he has poured into Kinobi and Umi
• Umi - Usage of their deserializers to decode the various data types
• Kinobi - Kinobi parsing of IDLs to a Kinobi Tree has been a great inspiration in creating a layout to be stored in memory for deserialization
• Anchor
