SDK Playground

This repository contains a suite of tests, scripts, and notebook templates to get started using the Synthetix Python SDK and interacting with the protocol. Visit tests for more information on testing contracts and creating test environments.

Installation

  1. Before you begin, ensure you have:
  • An API key from Alchemy
  • A wallet address and the private key for that address (optional)
  • Installed Python 3.10 or greater
    • Run python --version in your terminal to check
  1. Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/Synthetixio/sdk-playground.git
cd project-template-python
  1. Set up a virtual environment:
python3 -m venv env
source env/bin/activate

pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
  1. Install ape plugins:
ape plugins install .
  1. Install Foundry:

Review the installation guide or run the following:

curl -L https://foundry.paradigm.xyz | bash

# install foundry
foundryup
  1. Make a copy of the .env.example file, name it .env, and then enter the details for your RPC and wallet.

The private key is optional. If one is not provided, the SDK will simulate the specified address, but transaction signing will be disabled.

Running Scripts

If you've completed the steps above, you can run any of the scripts in the scripts directory using the Ape framework. For example:

# run the file at scripts/base_fork.py
ape run base_fork

By default, these scripts won't submit transactions. To enable this, you must edit the script and set submit=True. This precaution helps avoid unintended transactions on the blockchain. Always use caution and carefully review the code before submitting transactions.

Notebooks

There are also some Jupyter notebooks that don't rely on the Ape framework. You can open these using VS Code or Jupyter Notebook. Use the environment created above to run these notebooks.

For example, if you've properly set up your notebook environment, you can copy the template from notebooks/templates/base_sepolia.ipynb and start calling the contracts. If a private key is provided, you can also submit transactions.
