Get Single Position

Fetch comprehensive data for a specific position NFT including metadata, associated pair information, and token types. This method retrieves the on-chain position object with all its properties.

Prerequisites

Before fetching position data:

• Have a valid position ID (object address)

• Initialize the SDK with network connection

• Understand position NFT structure in DLMM

Basic Usage

const positionId = "0x123...abc";

// Fetch position details
const position = await sdk.Position.getLbPosition(positionId);

console.log("Position details:", {
  id: position.id,
  pairId: position.pair_id,
  tokenX: position.tokenXType,
  tokenY: position.tokenYType,
  name: position.name
});

Method Signature

async getLbPosition(positionId: string): Promise<LBPosition>

Parameters

• positionId: The object ID of the position NFT

Returns

LBPosition object:

interface LBPosition {
  id: string;              // Position NFT address
  tokenXType: string;      // Full type of token X
  tokenYType: string;      // Full type of token Y
  pair_id: string;         // Associated pair address
  name: string;            // NFT name (e.g., "Alphafi DLMM Position")
  description: string;     // NFT description
  url: string;             // NFT image URL
  index: string;           // Position index in the pair
  version: string;         // Object version
}

Understanding Position Data

NFT Metadata

const position = await sdk.Position.getLbPosition(positionId);

// NFT display properties
console.log("NFT Name:", position.name);
console.log("Description:", position.description);
console.log("Image URL:", position.url);

// Position specifics
console.log("Position Index:", position.index);
console.log("Pair ID:", position.pair_id);

Token Information

const position = await sdk.Position.getLbPosition(positionId);

// Extract token symbols from types
const tokenXSymbol = position.tokenXType.split("::").pop();
const tokenYSymbol = position.tokenYType.split("::").pop();

console.log(`Position holds: ${tokenXSymbol}/${tokenYSymbol}`);

Complete Position Analysis

// Get position and its associated data
const positionId = "0x123...";
const position = await sdk.Position.getLbPosition(positionId);

// Get the pair for additional context
const pair = await sdk.Pair.getPair(position.pair_id);

// Get bins to see liquidity distribution
const bins = await sdk.Position.getPositionBins(pair, positionId);

// Get current value
const amounts = await sdk.Position.getPositionBinsAmount(pair, positionId);

console.log("Position analysis:", {
  pair: `${position.tokenXType}/${position.tokenYType}`,
  activeBins: bins.length,
  binRange: bins.length > 0 ? [bins[0].id, bins[bins.length - 1].id] : [],
  currentPrice: getPriceFromBinId(pair.parameters.active_id, Number(pair.binStep))
});

Error Handling

try {
  const position = await sdk.Position.getLbPosition(invalidId);
} catch (error) {
  if (error.message.includes("Position not found")) {
    console.error("Position does not exist");
  } else if (error.message.includes("Invalid")) {
    console.error("Invalid position ID format");
  }
}

Verify Position Ownership

// Check if position belongs to current user
const position = await sdk.Position.getLbPosition(positionId);
const userPositions = await sdk.Position.getLbPositions([]);

const isOwner = userPositions.some(p => p.id === positionId);
console.log("User owns this position:", isOwner);

Position State Checks

const position = await sdk.Position.getLbPosition(positionId);
const pair = await sdk.Pair.getPair(position.pair_id);

// Check if position has liquidity
const bins = await sdk.Position.getPositionBins(pair, positionId);
const hasLiquidity = bins.length > 0;

// Check if pair is still active
const pairActive = BigInt(pair.reserveX) > 0n || BigInt(pair.reserveY) > 0n;

console.log("Position state:", {
  hasLiquidity,
  pairActive,
  binCount: bins.length
});

Common Use Cases

1. Position Details Page: Display complete position information

2. Pre-transaction Validation: Verify position before operations

3. Position Migration: Get data before moving to new strategies

4. Analytics: Track individual position performance
