Randomizer Sequencer Client

Listen for Randomizer VRF result previews in real-time, before they're verified on-chain.

You can update your user's interface using the real-time preview (e.g. show the result of a game, update balances, or show the NFT they're minting).

Result previews are extremely likely to be the final on-chain result, since the sequencer can submit the result if the beacon does not submit it in time.

Installation

npm i @randomizer.ai/realtime-client

Example

For a full example, see Realtime Coinflip Example Game.

Front-end

import { listenForPreview } from "@randomizer.ai/realtime-client";
import ethers from "ethers";

// See https://randomizer.ai/docs for contract addresses
// Using Randomizer's Arbitrum Goerli contract address here:
const RANDOMIZER_ADDRESS = "0x923096Da90a3b60eb7E12723fA2E1547BA9236Bc";

// Get the event fired by Randomizer that returns the request ID
// headsOrTails is a boolean
const flip = (headsOrTails) => {

  // Flip for tails
  await contract.flip(headsOrTails);
  const receipt = await tx.wait();

  // Get request ID from the transaction event emitted by the Randomizer contract
  let requestId;
  for (const event of receipt.events) {
    if (event.address === RANDOMIZER_ADDRESS) {
      // Convert event.args[0] (id) to number
      requestId = parseInt(event.topics[1]);
    }
  }

  // Listen for the real-time preview result fired by Randomizer's sequencer (returns a hex string)
  const seed = await listenForPreview(requestId);

  // Forward the result hex as a BigNumber to previewResult
  const result = (await $contracts.coinflip.previewResult(ethers.BigNumber.from(seed)));

  if(headsOrTails === result) {
    // Player won
  } else {
    // Player lost
  }

}

/* Additionally the UI should listen for on-chain FlipResult event and update the state accordingly */
