Typescript Example with MeshJS SDK

First install the MeshJS SDK. You can find the full documentation here You also need a service that tracks the account’s UTXO, for example Blockfrost. The DFNS TypeScript SDK has an example demonstrating how to write a custom Blockfrost initiator plugin for MeshJS. Here a code sample to broadcast a transaction via the DFNS TypeScript SDK:

import { BlockfrostProvider, Transaction } from '@meshsdk/core'

const walletId = 'wa-6lbfv-9esgj-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
const wallet = await dfnsClient.wallets.getWallet({ walletId })

const provider = new BlockfrostProvider(process.env.BLOCKFROST_PROJECT_ID!)
const initiator = new CustomInitiator(wallet.address, provider)

const transaction = await new Transaction({ initiator })
  .sendLovelace('addr_test1vq5eele9enryyqkg4wrjyp7x4gpshvkr6rylkwtyau56g3qgrcks9', '1000000')
  .build()

const res = await dfnsClient.wallets.broadcastTransaction({
  walletId,
  body: {
    kind: 'Transaction',
    transaction: `0x${transaction}`,
  },
})
