Module Reference

1. Types (`types.ts`)

Comprehensive TypeScript interfaces for type-safe development.

Key Types:

// Transfer parameters
interface TransferParams {
  fireblocksApiClient: FireblocksSDK;
  ethereumProviderUrl: string;
  sourceVaultAccountId: string | number;
  recipientAddress: string;
  assetIdentifier: string;
  assetSymbol: string;
  transferAmount?: number;
  erc20ContractAddress?: string;
  // ... more fields
}

// Web3 initialization
interface Web3InitParams { ... }

// Bitcoin transactions
interface BtcTransactionParams { ... }

// Type guards
function isTerminalStatus(status: TransactionStatus): boolean;
function isFailedStatus(status: TransactionStatus): boolean;

Usage:

import { TransferParams, isTerminalStatus } from '../shared/types';

const params: TransferParams = {
  fireblocksApiClient,
  ethereumProviderUrl: "https://...",
  sourceVaultAccountId: "0",
  recipientAddress: "0x...",
  assetIdentifier: "ETH_TEST3",
  assetSymbol: "ETH"
};

if (isTerminalStatus(txStatus)) {
  console.log("Transaction complete");
}

2. Constants (`constants.ts`)

Centralized constants to eliminate magic numbers.

Available Constants:

// Gas constants
GAS.SIMPLE_TRANSFER_LIMIT        // 21000
GAS.ESTIMATION_BUFFER            // 1.2 (20% buffer)

// Polling
POLLING.INTERVAL_MS              // 1000
POLLING.TIMEOUT_MS               // 600000
POLLING.MAX_RETRIES              // 3

// Balance thresholds
BALANCE_THRESHOLDS.MIN_ETH_FOR_GAS                    // 0.0005
BALANCE_THRESHOLDS.MIN_ACTIVE_BALANCE                 // 0.0001
BALANCE_THRESHOLDS.LARGE_INTERNAL_TRANSFER_WARNING    // 10

// Paths
PATHS.API_SECRET                 // "../FB_KEY/fireblocks_secret.key"

// Assets
ASSETS.ETH                       // "ETH"
ASSETS.ETH_TEST3                 // "ETH_TEST3"
ASSETS.BTC                       // "BTC"

// Error messages
ERROR_MESSAGES.INSUFFICIENT_BALANCE
ERROR_MESSAGES.INVALID_ADDRESS

Usage:

import { GAS, POLLING, BALANCE_THRESHOLDS } from '../shared/constants';

// Instead of magic numbers
gasLimit: GAS.SIMPLE_TRANSFER_LIMIT,
gasWithBuffer: estimatedGas * GAS.ESTIMATION_BUFFER,
await sleep(POLLING.INTERVAL_MS);

if (amount > BALANCE_THRESHOLDS.LARGE_INTERNAL_TRANSFER_WARNING) {
  Logger.warn("Large transfer detected");
}

3. Logger (`logger.ts`)

Colored, structured logging with consistent formatting.

Logger Methods:

Logger.debug(message, data?)      // White - debug info
Logger.info(message, data?)       // Cyan - general info
Logger.warn(message, data?)       // Yellow - warnings
Logger.error(message, error?)     // Red - errors with stack traces
Logger.success(message, data?)    // Green - success messages

// Specialized logging
Logger.transaction(txId, status, note?)
Logger.polling(txId, status, note?)
Logger.balance(address, balance, unit?)
Logger.vault(vaultId, assetId, message)

// Utilities
Logger.separator(char?, length?)
Logger.section(title)
Logger.setWindowTitle(title)
Logger.custom(message, color, data?)

Usage:

import { Logger } from '../shared/logger';

Logger.info("Starting transfer");
Logger.success("Transfer completed", { txHash });
Logger.error("Transfer failed", error);
Logger.transaction(txId, "COMPLETED");
Logger.polling(txId, "PENDING_SIGNATURE");
Logger.balance("0x123...", "1.5", "ETH");
Logger.vault("0", "ETH_TEST3", "Balance retrieved");

Logger.section("Processing Transactions");
// === Processing Transactions ===

Output Example:

[2025-11-19T10:30:00.000Z] [INFO] Starting transfer
[2025-11-19T10:30:05.000Z] [SUCCESS] Transfer completed { txHash: '0x...' }

4. Errors (`errors.ts`)

Custom error classes with context for better debugging.

Error Classes:

// Base error
class FireblocksError extends Error {
  context?: ErrorContext;
  timestamp: Date;
  getDetailedMessage(): string;
}

// Specific errors
class TransactionError extends FireblocksError
class InsufficientBalanceError extends FireblocksError
class ValidationError extends FireblocksError
class ConfigurationError extends FireblocksError
class ApiError extends FireblocksError
class VaultError extends FireblocksError
class NoAddressesError extends VaultError
class TransactionTimeoutError extends TransactionError
class CsvProcessingError extends FireblocksError
class GasEstimationError extends FireblocksError
class NetworkError extends FireblocksError

// Error handler utilities
class ErrorHandler {
  static async withErrorHandling<T>(fn, errorMessage, context?): Promise<T>
  static normalize(error, defaultMessage?): FireblocksError
  static logError(error, additionalContext?): void
}

Usage:

import {
  ValidationError,
  TransactionError,
  InsufficientBalanceError,
  ErrorHandler
} from '../shared/errors';

// Throw with context
throw new ValidationError('amount', amount, 'Must be positive', {
  vault: vaultId,
  operation: 'transfer'
});

throw new InsufficientBalanceError(required, available, {
  vault: vaultId,
  assetId
});

throw new TransactionError('Transaction failed', txId, status, {
  operation: 'signTransaction'
});

// Wrap operations with error handling
const result = await ErrorHandler.withErrorHandling(
  async () => await riskyOperation(),
  'Operation failed',
  { vault: vaultId }
);

// Normalize and log errors
ErrorHandler.logError(error, { vault: vaultId, asset: assetId });

5. Transaction Poller (`transaction-poller.ts`)

Reusable transaction polling with automatic cancellation of failed transactions.

Functions:

// Poll until terminal status
async function pollTransaction(
  fireblocksClient: FireblocksSDK,
  transactionId: string,
  config?: PollingConfig
): Promise<PollingResult>

// Poll and throw on failure
async function pollTransactionUntilSuccess(
  fireblocksClient: FireblocksSDK,
  transactionId: string,
  config?: PollingConfig
): Promise<any>

// Poll multiple transactions
async function pollTransactions(
  fireblocksClient: FireblocksSDK,
  transactionIds: string[],
  config?: PollingConfig
): Promise<PollingResult[]>

// Resume existing transaction
async function resumeTransaction(
  fireblocksClient: FireblocksSDK,
  transactionId: string,
  config?: PollingConfig
): Promise<PollingResult>

// Check if terminal
async function checkTransactionStatus(
  fireblocksClient: FireblocksSDK,
  transactionId: string
): Promise<TransactionStatus | undefined>

Usage:

import { pollTransactionUntilSuccess, pollTransaction } from '../shared/transaction-poller';

// Simple polling (throws on failure)
const txInfo = await pollTransactionUntilSuccess(fireblocksClient, txId);

// Advanced polling with callbacks
const result = await pollTransaction(fireblocksClient, txId, {
  intervalMs: 2000,
  timeoutMs: 300000,
  onStatusChange: (status) => {
    console.log(`Status changed to: ${status}`);
  }
});

// Poll multiple transactions concurrently
const results = await pollTransactions(fireblocksClient, [txId1, txId2, txId3]);

Replaces:

// Before: 30 lines of polling logic
while (...) {
  txInfo = await fireblocksApiClient.getTransactionById(txId);
  currentStatus = txInfo.status;
  // ... 20+ more lines
}

// After: 1 line!
const txInfo = await pollTransactionUntilSuccess(fireblocksClient, txId);

6. Validators (`validators.ts`)

Input validation to ensure data integrity.

Validation Functions:

validateEthereumAddress(address, fieldName?)
validateAmount(amount, fieldName?, allowZero?)
validateVaultId(vaultId, fieldName?)
validateAssetId(assetId, fieldName?)
validateTransactionId(txId, fieldName?)
validateRpcUrl(url, fieldName?)
validateCliArguments(args, expectedCount, usageMessage)
validateFileExists(filePath, fieldName?)
validateRequired<T>(value, fieldName)
validateNonEmptyArray<T>(array, fieldName?)
validateRange(value, min, max, fieldName?)
parseAndValidateNumber(value, fieldName?)

Usage:

import { validateAmount, validateEthereumAddress, validateVaultId } from '../shared/validators';

// Throws ValidationError if invalid
validateAmount(amount, 'transferAmount');
validateEthereumAddress(address, 'recipientAddress');
validateVaultId(vaultId, 'sourceVaultAccountId');

// CLI validation
const args = process.argv.slice(2);
validateCliArguments(args, 2, 'ts-node script.ts <vaultId> <assetId>');

// Required field validation
validateRequired(config.apiKey, 'apiKey');

// Range validation
validateRange(gasPrice, 0, MAX_GAS_PRICE, 'gasPrice');

7. Configuration (`config.ts`)

Centralized configuration management with validation.

Functions:

// Load configuration
function loadConfig(apiKeyOverride?, secretPathOverride?): FireblocksConfig

// Create Fireblocks client
function createFireblocksClient(config?): FireblocksSDK

// Validate configuration
function validateConfig(config: FireblocksConfig): void

// Get validated config
function getValidatedConfig(): FireblocksConfig

// Legacy exports (deprecated)
export const apiSecret: string
export const apiKey: string

Usage:

import { createFireblocksClient, loadConfig } from '../shared/config';

// Simple usage
const fireblocksClient = createFireblocksClient();

// Custom configuration
const config = loadConfig('myApiKey', '/custom/path/secret.key');
const fireblocksClient = createFireblocksClient(config);

// Environment variable
// Set FIREBLOCKS_API_KEY=your_key_here
const fireblocksClient = createFireblocksClient();

Replaces:

// Before (repeated in every file)
const { apiSecret, apiKey } = require('./config');
const fireblocksApi = new FireblocksSDK(apiSecret, apiKey);

// After
import { createFireblocksClient } from '../shared/config';
const fireblocksApi = createFireblocksClient();

Best Practices

1. Always Use Types

import { TransferParams } from '../shared/types';

// Good - fully typed
const params: TransferParams = { ... };

// Bad - untyped
const params = { ... };

2. Use Constants

import { GAS, POLLING } from '../shared/constants';

// Good
gasLimit: GAS.SIMPLE_TRANSFER_LIMIT

// Bad
gasLimit: 21000

3. Use Logger

import { Logger } from '../shared/logger';

// Good
Logger.success("Transfer completed");

// Bad
console.log("\x1b[32mTransfer completed\x1b[0m");

4. Handle Errors Properly

import { ErrorHandler, ValidationError } from '../shared/errors';

try {
  await operation();
} catch (error) {
  ErrorHandler.logError(error, { vault: vaultId });
  throw error; // Re-throw after logging
}

5. Validate Inputs

import { validateAmount, validateVaultId } from '../shared/validators';

function transfer(vaultId: string, amount: number) {
  validateVaultId(vaultId);
  validateAmount(amount);
  // ... proceed with transfer
}

Examples

Complete Transfer Script

import { createFireblocksClient } from '../shared/config';
import { Logger } from '../shared/logger';
import { ErrorHandler } from '../shared/errors';
import { validateCliArguments } from '../shared/validators';
import { transfer } from '../EVM/transfer.refactored';

async function main() {
  const args = process.argv.slice(2);
  validateCliArguments(args, 3, 'ts-node script.ts <vault> <amount> <address>');

  const [vaultId, amount, address] = args;

  Logger.section("Transfer Operation");

  const fireblocksClient = createFireblocksClient();

  await transfer({
    fireblocksApiClient: fireblocksClient,
    ethereumProviderUrl: "https://eth-sepolia.g.alchemy.com/v2/...",
    sourceVaultAccountId: vaultId,
    recipientAddress: address,
    assetIdentifier: "ETH_TEST3",
    assetSymbol: "ETH",
    transferAmount: parseFloat(amount)
  });

  Logger.success("Operation completed");
}

main().catch((error) => {
  ErrorHandler.logError(error);
  process.exit(1);
});

Migration from Old Code

See MIGRATION_GUIDE.md for detailed migration instructions.

Quick Summary:

Replace require('./config') with import { createFireblocksClient } from '../shared/config'
Replace console.log with Logger methods
Replace magic numbers with constants
Replace error strings with custom error classes
Replace polling loops with pollTransaction()
Add input validation

Contributing

When adding new utilities:

Add types to types.ts - Define interfaces first
Add constants to constants.ts - No magic numbers
Use Logger - Consistent logging
Use custom errors - Context-rich error handling
Add validation - Validate inputs early
Document with JSDoc - Self-documenting code
Export from index.ts - Make it accessible

Performance

The shared module adds minimal overhead:

Type definitions: Zero runtime cost (compile-time only)
Constants: Direct property access, negligible cost
Logger: ~0.1ms per log (colored output)
Error classes: <1ms to construct
Transaction poller: Same performance as inline polling
Validators: <0.5ms per validation

Net benefit: Reduced code size and improved maintainability far outweigh any minimal overhead.
