blockNumberHandler(client): EthBlockNumberHandler

Handler for the eth_blockNumber RPC call

Parameters

• client

• client.extend

Extends the base client with additional functionality. This enables optimal code splitting and extensibility

• client.forkUrl?: string

Fork url if the EVM is forked

Example

const client = createMemoryClient({ forkUrl: 'https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/your-api-key' })
console.log(client.forkUrl)

• client.getChainCommon

Returns the chain being used by the client. THis type extends both viem Chain and ethereumjs Common This is the same object on getVm().common

• client.logger: Logger

The logger instance

• client.miningConfig: MiningConfig

The configuration for mining. Defaults to ‘auto'

  • 'auto’ will mine a block on every transaction
  • ’interval’ will mine a block every interval milliseconds
  • ’manual’ will not mine a block automatically and requires a manual call to mineBlock

• client.mode: "fork" | "normal"

The mode the current client is running in fork mode will fetch and cache all state from the block forked from the provided URL normal mode will not fetch any state and will only run the EVM in memory

Example

let client = createMemoryClient()
console.log(client.mode) // 'normal'
client = createMemoryClient({ forkUrl: 'https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/your-api-key' })
console.log(client.mode) // 'fork'

• client.ready

Returns promise that resulves when the client is ready The client is usable without calling this method but may have extra latency on the first call from initialization

Example

const client = createMemoryClient()
await client.ready()

Returns

EthBlockNumberHandler
