Hyperliquid API SDK

Typescript SDK to more easily interact with Hyperliquid's API

All info on the Hyperliquid API can be found here: HyperLiquid API Documentation

Installation

npm install --save hyperliquid

Usage

API Agent Wallet Usage: If you are using API Agent wallets everything works as normal but you need to add your actual account's wallet address in the Hyperliquid object field 'walletAddress'.

If you don't do this you will be unable to use some of the SDK methods successfully. If you are using your own Private Key then it's not necessary as the SDK can derive your wallet address from the Private key.

const { Hyperliquid } = require('hyperliquid');

const sdk = new Hyperliquid(
  <private_key - string>,
  <testnet - boolean (OPTIONAL)>,
  <walletAddress - string (Required if you are using an API Agent Wallet, otherwise not necessary)>
);

// Use the SDK methods
sdk.info.getAllMids().then(allMids => {
  console.log(allMids);
});

Note: You don't have to provide your private key, but it is required if you want to use the exchange API to place, cancel or modify orders or access your accounts assets.

Symbol Naming Convention

Instead of using native symbols (which can be confusing, like @1, @4, @5 for spot and only the coin name for perps), we've implemented a more intuitive naming system:

  • For perpetuals: <coin>-PERP (e.g., BTC-PERP, ETH-PERP)
  • For spot: <coin>-SPOT (e.g., PURR-SPOT, BTC-SPOT)

This convention makes it easier to distinguish between spot and perpetual markets.

Examples

Exchange API Methods

// Place an order
sdk.exchange.placeOrder({
  coin: 'BTC-PERP',
  is_buy: true,
  sz: 1,
  limit_px: 30000,
  order_type: { limit: { tif: 'Gtc' } },
  reduce_only: false
  //vaultAddress <str> - optional field in case you are using vaults 
}).then(placeOrderResult => {
  console.log(placeOrderResult);
}).catch(error => {
  console.error('Error placing order:', error);
});

// Cancel an order
sdk.exchange.cancelOrder({
  coin: 'BTC-PERP',
  o: 123456 // order ID
}).then(cancelOrderResult => {
  console.log(cancelOrderResult);
}).catch(error => {
  console.error('Error cancelling order:', error);
});

// Transfer between perpetual and spot accounts
sdk.exchange.transferBetweenSpotAndPerp(100, true) // Transfer 100 USDC from spot to perp
  .then(transferResult => {
    console.log(transferResult);
  }).catch(error => {
    console.error('Error transferring funds:', error);
  });
