Send Plain Text Transaction

Key Improvements Include:

• No CORS preflight checks

• Plain text instead of a JSON payload

• Reduced body size, which means reduced bandwidth and network overhead

Key points

• Request should only have one header as Content-Type : text/plain

• Txn should be in Base64 encoded

• Compulsory to add api-key and method in URI params

• Right now we only support sendTransaction and getHealth method

• Send request on endpoint /iris2

URI Params

Param	Type	Description
api-key	String	Mandatory, to set api key for authentication
method	String	Mandatory, to set method
mev-protect	Boolean	Optional, To set mev protect, default is false
swqos-only	Boolean	Optional, if set true, txn will be only send via swqos, default is false

Methods

Method	REST Method	Description

--header 'Content-Type: text/plain' \
--data 'base64_encoded_txn'

Rust

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let client = reqwest::Client::builder()
        .build()?;

    let mut headers = reqwest::header::HeaderMap::new();
    headers.insert("Content-Type", "text/plain".parse()?);

    let data = "base64_encoded_txn";

    let request = client.request(reqwest::Method::POST, "https://lim.gateway.astralane.io/iris2?api-key=APIKEY&method=sendTransaction")
        .headers(headers)
        .body(data);

    let response = request.send().await?;
    let body = response.text().await?;

    println!("{}", body);

    Ok(())
