# hbar-kit

> hbar-kit is a TypeScript toolkit for verifying native Hedera payments (HBAR and HTS tokens) by
> receiver, amount, memo, and time window, using the public Hedera Mirror Node. It is read-only,
> non-custodial, and bigint-safe — built for production payment verification, payment links,
> invoices, and checkout flows. It is NOT a wallet, payment processor, custodial service, exchange,
> or EVM/Solidity framework.

## Status

Version 0.1.x — beta, pre-1.0. Published to npm and tested; usable today for HBAR/HTS payment
verification. The public API may change before 1.0 (pin a version). The wallet, React, Next.js, and
indexer packages are planned, not yet released.

## Primary use case

Verify that a specific HBAR or HTS-token payment was made to a receiver account — matching the
expected amount, memo (order/invoice id), and time window — by reading Hedera Mirror Node data
server-side. Non-custodial: hbar-kit holds no keys and moves no funds; it only reads public data and
reports whether the expected payment arrived.

## Packages

- `@hbar-kit/payments` — payment verification. Functions: `verifyHbarPayment`, `verifyHtsPayment`,
  `verifyUsdcPayment`, `waitForHbarPayment`, `waitForHtsPayment`, `waitForUsdcPayment`. Returns a
  typed `PaymentResult` (discriminated by `status`). USDC on Hedera is verified through the Mirror
  Node as an HTS token (6 decimals); `verifyUsdcPayment` is a convenience wrapper that fills in the
  verified USDC token id — no custody, no Circle API, no fiat conversion.
- `@hbar-kit/mirror` — typed Hedera Mirror Node REST client: `createMirrorClient` (transactions,
  tokens, balances) with cursor pagination and a pluggable transport.
- `@hbar-kit/core` — zero-dependency Hedera primitives: network config (`NETWORKS`,
  `resolveNetwork`), bigint money (`parseHbar`/`formatHbar`/`parseUnits`/`formatUnits`), id and
  timestamp parsing, typed errors.

## Canonical example

```ts
import { verifyHbarPayment } from "@hbar-kit/payments"

const result = await verifyHbarPayment({
  network: "mainnet", // "mainnet" | "testnet" | "previewnet"
  receiver: "0.0.12345", // the account that should receive the payment
  amount: "25", // 25 HBAR, given as a decimal string (parsed to tinybars)
  memo: "order_6471727153206", // your order / invoice id
  after: new Date(Date.now() - 30 * 60 * 1000), // only look at recent transactions
})

if (result.matched) {
  // Confirmed. Use result.transactionId, result.amount, result.payer, result.explorerUrl
} else {
  // result.status is one of:
  // pending | underpaid | overpaid | duplicate | mismatch | expired
}
```

## Common use cases

- verify an HBAR payment in TypeScript
- verify a Hedera payment by memo / order id
- verify an HTS token payment
- verify a USDC payment on Hedera (HTS token, 6 decimals)
- accept HBAR payments without custody
- build a Hedera payment link, invoice, or checkout flow (incl. Next.js)
- backend / server-side Hedera payment verification API
- typed Hedera Mirror Node REST client

## What hbar-kit is not

Not a wallet, payment processor, custodial service, fiat on-ramp, exchange, or EVM/Solidity
framework. It does not hold funds or move money. It reads public Mirror Node data to verify payments
and helps build payment links, invoices, checkout flows, and payment-verification APIs.
