XCM Router documentation [here]
XCM Router (Codenamed SpellRouter) is ParaSpell's latest innovation, that allows for seamless XCM Exchanges. Send one token type and receive a different one you choose on the destination chain cross-chain. All within one call and three signatures. This seamless operation allows for a better user experience, limiting the possibility of user errors. The router currently implements the 8 largest Parachain DEXes and is easy to extend as the number of DEXes with public SDKs increases. Together, there are 524 asset pools to choose from, making XCM Router the largest liquidity bridging tool in the ecosystem.
Exchanges implemented:
- Acala / 36 Pools available
- Basilisk / 15 Pools available
- BifrostKusama / 66 Pools available / Requires native token for swaps
- BifrostPolkadot / 45 Pools available / Requires native token for swaps
- HydraDX / 210 Pools available
- Interlay / 10 Pools available / Requires native token for swaps
- Karura / 136 Pools available
- Kintsugi / 6 Pools available / Requires native token for swaps
NOTE: Some exchanges require native tokens in order to proceed with swaps.
//PNPM temporarily unsupported

//PNPM temporarily unsupported
npm install || yarn add @paraspell/xcm-router
Builder pattern:
import { RouterBuilder } from '@paraspell/xcm-router'
Other patterns:
// ESM
import * as xcmRouter from '@paraspell/xcm-router'
//Multiple import options
import { transfer,
TransactionType,
TTransferOptions,
TTxProgressInfo } from '@paraspell/xcm-router'
//As Polkadot moves to ESM only, our Router also moves to ESM only. CJS is not supported anymore.
If you wish to have an exchange chain selection based on the best price outcome, you can opt for an automatic exchange selection method. This method can be selected by not using the .exchange()
parameter in the call. The router will then automatically select the best exchange chain for you based on the best price outcome.
await RouterBuilder
.from('Polkadot') //Origin Parachain/Relay chain
.to('Astar') //Destination Parachain/Relay chain
.currencyFrom('DOT') // Currency to send
.currencyTo('ASTR') // Currency to receive
.amount('1000000') // Amount to send
.slippagePct('1') // Max slipppage percentage
.injectorAddress(injectorAddress) //Injector address
.recipientAddress(recipientAddress) //Recipient address
.signer(injector.signer) //Signer
//.evmInjectorAddress(evmInjector address) //Optional parameters when origin node is EVM based (Required with evmSigner)
//.evmSigner(EVM signer) //Optional parameters when origin node is EVM based (Required with evmInjectorAddress)
.onStatusChange((status: TTxProgressInfo) => { //This is how we subscribe to calls that need signing
console.log(status.hashes); //Transaction hashes
console.log(status.status); //Transaction statuses
console.log(status.type); //Transaction types
})
.buildAndSend()
If you wish to select your exchange chain manually, you can provide the additional .exchange()
parameter to the call. The router will then use the exchange chain of your choice.
await RouterBuilder
.from('Polkadot') //Origin Parachain/Relay chain
.exchange('HydraDDex') //Exchange Parachain
.to('Astar') //Destination Parachain/Relay chain
.currencyFrom('DOT') // Currency to send
.currencyTo('ASTR') // Currency to receive
.amount('1000000') // Amount to send
.slippagePct('1') // Max slipppage percentage
.injectorAddress(selectedAccount.address) //Injector address
.recipientAddress(recipientAddress) //Recipient address
.signer(injector.signer) //Signer
//.evmInjectorAddress(evmInjector address) //Optional parameters when origin node is EVM based (Required with evmSigner)
//.evmSigner(EVM signer) //Optional parameters when origin node is EVM based (Required with evmInjectorAddress)
.onStatusChange((status: TTxProgressInfo) => { //This is how we subscribe to calls that need signing
console.log(status.hashes); //Transaction hashes
console.log(status.status); //Transaction statuses
console.log(status.type); //Transaction types
})
.buildAndSend()

await transfer({

to: 'Interlay', //Destination Parachain/Relay chain
currencyFrom: 'DOT', // Currency to send
currencyTo: 'INTR', // Currency to receive
amount: '100000', // Amount to send

console.log(status.status); //Transaction statuses
console.log(status.type); //Transaction types

await transfer({

You can now use Ethereum <> Polkadot bridge in the XCM Router. There are two scenarios to this transfer.
Following scenario works just like normal transfer, you just select Ethereum as destination chain. See example below.
await RouterBuilder
.from('Origin') //Origin Parachain/Relay chain
.to('Ethereum')
.currencyFrom('DOT') // Currency to send
.currencyTo('WETH') // Any currency supported by Ethereum bridge (WETH, WBTC and more)
.amount('1000000') // Amount to send
.slippagePct('1') // Max slipppage percentage
.injectorAddress(selectedAccount.address) //Injector address
.recipientAddress(recipientAddress) //Recipient address
.signer(injector.signer) //Signer
//.evmInjectorAddress(evmInjector address) //Optional parameters when origin node is EVM based (Required with evmSigner)
//.evmSigner(EVM signer) //Optional parameters when origin node is EVM based (Required with evmInjectorAddress)
.onStatusChange((status: TTxProgressInfo) => { //This is how we subscribe to calls that need signing
console.log(status.hashes); //Transaction hashes
console.log(status.status); //Transaction statuses
console.log(status.type); //Transaction types
})
.buildAndSend()
The other scenario is a little different as it requires other parameters because Ethereum has different wallets and signers.
await RouterBuilder()
.from('Ethereum')
.to('Destination') //Destination Chain
.currencyTo('WETH') // Any currency supported by Ethereum bridge (WETH, WBTC and more)
.currencyTo('GLMR') // Currency to receive
.amount('1000000') // Amount to send
.injectorAddress(selectedAccount.address) //Injector address
.recipientAddress(recipientAddress) //Recipient address
.signer(injector.signer) //Signer
.slippagePct('1') // Max slipppage percentage
.onStatusChange(onStatusChange)
.assetHubAddress(address) //Asset Hub address where currency from Ethereum will be sent
.ethSigner(ethSigner) // Ethereum signer
.build();
.onStatusChange((status: TTxProgressInfo) => { //This is how we subscribe to calls that need signing
console.log(status.hashes); //Transaction hashes
console.log(status.status); //Transaction statuses
console.log(status.type); //Transaction types
})
.buildAndSend()
