Tree-shaking

The SDK supports tree-shaking through granular imports — reduce bundle size by ~50% by importing only the functions you need.

Import

// Granular imports (tree-shakeable)
import { clearinghouseState } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/info";
import { order } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/exchange";
import { candle } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/subscription";

Usage

Functions have the same names as client methods. Instead of client.order(...), you call order(config, ...):

import { HttpTransport } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid";
import { order } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/exchange";
import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";

const transport = new HttpTransport();
const wallet = privateKeyToAccount("0x...");

// Function takes config as first argument
const result = await order(
  { transport, wallet },
  {
    orders: [{
      a: 0,
      b: true,
      p: "30000",
      s: "0.1",
      r: false,
      t: { limit: { tif: "Gtc" } },
    }],
    grouping: "na",
  },
);

Compare with client approach:

import { ExchangeClient, HttpTransport } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid";
import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";

const client = new ExchangeClient({
  transport: new HttpTransport(),
  wallet: privateKeyToAccount("0x..."),
});

// Method on client instance
const result = await client.order({
  orders: [{
    a: 0,
    b: true,
    p: "30000",
    s: "0.1",
    r: false,
    t: { limit: { tif: "Gtc" } },
  }],
  grouping: "na",
});

Info Functions

Info functions only need transport:

import { HttpTransport } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid";
import { allMids } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/info";

const transport = new HttpTransport();

const mids = await allMids({ transport });

Subscription Functions

Subscription functions require WebSocketTransport:

import { WebSocketTransport } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid";
import { trades } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/subscription";

const transport = new WebSocketTransport();

const subscription = await trades({ transport }, { coin: "BTC" }, (data) => {
  console.log(data);
});

Available Exports

Export Path	Description
@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/info	Info API functions (clearinghouseState, meta, allMids, etc.)
@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/exchange	Exchange API functions (order, cancel, withdraw3, etc.)
@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/subscription	Subscription functions (candle, trades, l2Book, etc.)

Valibot Schemas

These exports also include valibot schemas for every API method:

import { ClearinghouseStateRequest, ClearinghouseStateResponse } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/info";
import { OrderRequest, OrderResponse } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/exchange";

Available Schemas

Each method exports:

• *Request — full request schema (with type, nonce, signature for exchange)

• *Response — response schema from API

Use Cases

TypeScript types:

import { ClearinghouseStateResponse } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/info";
import * as v from "valibot";

type State = v.InferOutput<typeof ClearinghouseStateResponse>;

Runtime validation:

import { OrderRequest } from "@nktkas/hyperliquid/api/exchange";
import * as v from "valibot";

// Validate data before sending
const validated = v.parse(OrderRequest, {
  action: {
    type: "order",
    orders: [{ a: 0, b: true, p: "30000", s: "0.1", r: false, t: { limit: { tif: "Gtc" } } }],
    grouping: "na",
  },
  nonce: Date.now(),
  signature: { r: "0x...", s: "0x...", v: 27 },
});

Field descriptions:

Schemas include descriptions for all fields via v.description(), useful for generating documentation or exploring the API structure.
