• A Solana wallet with some SOL for testing the swap
• An environment file (.env) with your RPC URL and WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY

Environment variables

Add your RPC endoint and private key to a .env file:

RPC_URL=YOUR_RPC_URL
WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY

Installation

Clone the repository locally and install the dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/your-username/raydium-sdk-swap-example.git
cd raydium-sdk-swap-example
yarn

Usage

Edit the configuration in src/swapConfig.ts editing:

• Select if you want to send the transaction or only simulate
• The amount to swap
• The tokens to swap
