❗️
This signing method will be deprecated on 21 August 2023 00.00 UTC
Please refer to the new signing method https://docs.aevo.xyz/reference/signing-orders

To create an order, a signature needs to be generated. This signature allows for the gasless trading experience in Aevo. The signature generation used by Aevo follows the guideline laid out in the EIP-712 (https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-712) . This signing method is widely used and supported in most wallets.

🚧
Important!
The signature generated for order submission is different from the signature for authentication.

Method

Signature is generated by signing the Order payload using the account's Signing Key
Signing Key is generated during Enable Trading.

Example

from random import randint
from eip712_structs import EIP712Struct, Address, Uint, Boolean, make_domain
from web3 import Web3
from eth_account import Account

# Generate Salt
salt = randint(0, 10**6)

# Limit price and amount is in 6 decimal places
decimals = 10**6
limit_price = int(100 * decimals)  # Limit price of $100
amount = int(2 * decimals)  # Size of 2 contracts

# instrument_id from /options-chain
instrument = 1

class Order(EIP712Struct):
    maker = Address()
    isBuy = Boolean()
    limitPrice = Uint(256)
    amount = Uint(256)
    salt = Uint(256)
    instrument = Uint(256)

order_struct = Order(maker="your_address", # The wallet's main address
                    isBuy=True, # True if buy, False if sell
                    limitPrice=limit_price,
                    amount=amount,
                    salt=salt,
                    instrument=instrument)

# Get bytes
domain = make_domain(name="Aevo Mainnet", version="1", chainId=1)
# Testnet Domain
# domain = make_domain(name='Aevo Testnet', version='1', chainId=11155111)
signable_bytes = Web3.keccak(order_struct.signable_bytes(domain=domain))

# Sign with key
key = "your_signing_key"
signature = Account._sign_hash(signable_bytes, key).signature.hex()

// Get signing keys, and sign message
const signer = new ethers.Wallet(signingKey);

const orderMessage = {
  maker: "your_wallet_address,
  isBuy: true,  // true if buy, false if sell
  instrument: "ETH-24AUG22-1850-C",
  
  // Limit price is in 6 decimal places. 
  // Eg. $10.00 = "10000000"
  limitPrice: ethers.utils.parseUnits(10, 6).toString(),

  // This is the number of contracts
  amount: 10,

  // Random number
  salt: Math.floor(Math.random() * 100000).toString(),
}

// Get the order signature
const orderSignature = await signer._signTypedData(
  {
    name: "Aevo Mainnet",
    version: "1",
    chainId: 1,
  },
  { 
    Order: [

    ]
