Create a New Pool

Create a new HBAR/token or token/token liquidity pool. There are two methods to add a new liquidity pool:

See Pool creation fee to get the current pool creation fee.

Ensure that the liquidity pool does not exist on-chain prior to creation of the new pool. See Check for an existing pool.

Increase the client’s max token auto-association by one to receive the incoming LP token.

To add liquidity to an existing pool, see Adding liquidity.

Both methods supports HTS tokens with custom fees.

Creating a New HBAR/Token Liquidity Pool

Create a new HBAR/token liquidity pool and provide it with initial liquidity. Function name: addLiquidityETHNewPool ⛽ Recommended gas: 3,200,000 gwei (~ $0.27 USD)

Parameter Name	Description
address token	EVM address of the token to pair with HBAR
uint amountTokenDesired	The maximum token amount in its smallest unit
uint amountTokenMin	The minimum token amount in its smallest unit
uint amountETHMin	The minimum HBAR amount in its smallest unit (tinybar)
address to	EVM address to receive the new liquidity tokens
uint deadline	Deadline in Unix seconds

function addLiquidityETHNewPool(
  address token,
  uint amountTokenDesired,
  uint amountTokenMin,
  uint amountETHMin,
  address to,
  uint deadline
) external payable returns (uint amountToken, uint amountETH, uint liquidity);

function addLiquidityETHNewPool(
  address token,
  uint amountTokenDesired,
  uint amountTokenMin,
  uint amountETHMin,
  address to,
  uint deadline
) external virtual payable override ensure(deadline) returns (uint amountToken, uint amountETH, uint liquidity) {
  require (IUniswapV2Factory(factory).getPair(token, whbar) == address(0), "UniswapV2Router: POOL ALREADY EXISTS");
  uint256 feeInTinybars = tinycentsToTinybars(IUniswapV2Factory(factory).pairCreateFee());
  require(msg.value > feeInTinybars, 'UniswapV2Router: MSG.VALUE');
  IUniswapV2Factory(factory).createPair{value: feeInTinybars}(token, whbar);

  (amountToken, amountETH) = _addLiquidity(token, whbar, amountTokenDesired, msg.value - feeInTinybars, amountTokenMin, amountETHMin);
  address pair = UniswapV2Library.pairFor(factory, token, whbar);
  
  safeTransferToken(
    token, msg.sender, pair, amountToken
  );
  IWHBAR(WHBAR).deposit{value: amountETH}(msg.sender, pair);
  liquidity = IUniswapV2Pair(pair).mint(to);
  if (msg.value - feeInTinybars > amountETH) TransferHelper.safeTransferETH(msg.sender, msg.value - feeInTinybars - amountETH);
}

A spender allowance for the router is required for the HTS token.

The addLiquidityETHNewPool function operates in HBAR but derives its name from Uniswap on Ethereum. This name was kept to simplify integration for developers versed in Uniswap tools.

Creating a New Token/Token Liquidity Pool

Create a new token/token liquidity pool and provide it with initial liquidity. Function name: addLiquidityNewPool ⛽Recommended gas: 3,200,000 gwei (~ $0.27 USD)

Parameter Name	Description
address tokenA	EVM address of the first HTS token
address tokenB	EVM address of the second HTS token
uint amountADesired	The maximum amount for the first token in its smallest unit
uint amountBDesired	The maximum amount for the second token in its smallest unit
uint amountAMin	The minimum amount for the first token in its smallest unit
uint amountBMin	The minimum amount for the second token in its smallest unit
address to	EVM address to receive the new liquidity tokens
uint deadline	Deadline in Unix seconds

function addLiquidityNewPool(
  address tokenA,
  address tokenB,
  uint amountADesired,
  uint amountBDesired,
  uint amountAMin,
  uint amountBMin,
  address to,
  uint deadline
) external payable returns (uint amountA, uint amountB, uint liquidity);

function addLiquidityNewPool(
  address tokenA,
  address tokenB,
  uint amountADesired,
  uint amountBDesired,
  uint amountAMin,
  uint amountBMin,
  address to,
  uint deadline
) external virtual payable override ensure(deadline) returns (uint amountA, uint amountB, uint liquidity) {
  
  require (IUniswapV2Factory(factory).getPair(tokenA, tokenB) == address(0), "UniswapV2Router: POOL ALREADY EXISTS");
  address pair = IUniswapV2Factory(factory).createPair{value: msg.value}(tokenA, tokenB);
  
  (amountA, amountB) = _addLiquidity(tokenA, tokenB, amountADesired, amountBDesired, amountAMin, amountBMin);

  safeTransferToken(
    tokenA, msg.sender, pair, amountA
  );
  safeTransferToken(
    tokenB, msg.sender, pair, amountB
  );
  liquidity = IUniswapV2Pair(pair).mint(to);
}

A spender allowance for the router is required for both HTS tokens.
