Usage

import {
    BSCClient,
    KucoinClient,
    ETHClient,
    CronosClient,
    AvaxClient,
    BaseClient
} from '@web3xlabs/ethclients.js';

const client = new BSCClient([
    // Endpoints list
]);
await client.connect();

console.log(await client.isConnected());

Endpoints and Lists

Each client instance accepts an Array<string> of RPC endpoints. These endpoints may be HTTP/S, or WS/S, and the client will determine the correct provider based on the endpoint passed in.

It is a good idea to pass in multiple endpoints if possible, as the client driver will automatically failover to the next available endpoint if an error is encountered during a request.

Public RPC Endpoints

Warning: These endpoints are provided by the community without an uptime guarantee. These endpoints will often work for testing, but be aware of any latency or delay, and also be aware that they may stop working at any time.

Advanced

Each client instance accepts an optional endpoint: string argument that will override the default endpoint for the client to connect to.

Providing an endpoint that begins with http:// or https:// will automatically use the HttpProvider connection provider. Endpoints that begin with ws:// or wss:// will automatically use the WebsocketProvider connection provider.

Each client also provides an endpoint list specific to that chain's public RPC endpoints. This list will be looped over 3 times during connection attempts, and if the current endpoint does not connect successfully, the next endpoint will be tried.

import { ETHClient } from '@web3xlabs/ethclients.js';

const client = new ETHClient('https://invalid-rpc-url.com');

// Will log an error for the given endpoint then reconnect using a valid endpoint.
await client.connect(); 

Providing no endpoint to the client will cause the client to attempt connection on the first endpoint in its list. If that endpoint fails, it will continue through the list as described.

import { BSCClient } from '@web3xlabs/ethclients.js';

const client = new BSCClient(); // Will use first endpoint in list
await client.connect();
