Prerequisites

Before making requests with Volary SDK, you must have it installed.

You can install Volary SDK using either npm or yarn. Use the following commands to install Volary SDK:

npm install @nest25/evm-chains-lib
OR
yarn add @nest25/evm-chains-lib

Request

Here is an example of how to make a transfer request using the Volary SDK:

// import the Nest SDK
const { ERC20 } = require('@nest25/evm-chains-lib');

// create a new instance of the ERC20 class
const erc20 = new ERC20();

// define the main function
const main = async () => {
    // call the transfer method
    const receipt = await erc20.transfer('ava','0x3c40d011838f0ecd5b601104eeb5e27172c92231','0x13CC66D6611bb754647Bf2977881eA0e35A48FB4',"1","your-private-key");

    // print the receipt
    console.log({ receipt });
};
// call the main function
main();

Use Cases

• Token transfer: The primary use case for the transfer function is to transfer a specified amount of ERC20 tokens from one address to another on a given blockchain network.

• Payment processing: The transfer function can also be used to process payments in a decentralized way by allowing users to send ERC20 tokens as payment for goods or services.

• Exchange trading: The transfer function can be used in decentralized exchanges to facilitate the trading of ERC20 tokens between different parties.
