Troubleshooting Safe-Api-Kit
Are you having trouble using the safe-api-kit library in your Ethereum project? In this article, we will cover common issues and provide steps to resolve them.
Common Safe-Api-Kit Issues
Before we dive into troubleshooting, let’s look at some common issues that may be causing problems:
1.
Importing SafeApiKit incorrectly
The quickstart example you provided is a good starting point, but make sure you import the correct SafeApiKit module. The official documentation recommends using @safe-global/api-kit.
Try this:
import SafeApiKit from '@safe-global/api-kit';
2.
Configuring chainId
The chainId option is crucial for connecting to a specific Ethereum chain (e.g. mainnet, testnet). Make sure you provide the correct value.
Try this:
const apiKit = new SafeApiKit({
chainId: '0x...// Replace with your chain ID
});
3.
Missing dependencies
Make sure the required dependencies are installed and imported into your project.
Try this:
npm install @safe-global/api-kit // or yarn add @safe-global/api-kit
4.
Incompatible versions
Recheck that you are using a compatible version of safe-api-kit. You can check the [official documentation]( for compatibility guidelines.
Try this:
npm install --save @safe-global/api-kit@latest
or
yarn add @safe-global/api-kit@latest
5.
Missing safeGlobal module
The safe-api-kit library relies on the safeGlobal module to interact with the Ethereum blockchain.
Try this:
const safeGlobal = require('@safe-global/safeGlobal');
import SafeApiKit from '@safe-global/api-kit';
6.
Network Issues
Ethereum network issues can cause connectivity issues. Make sure your project is connected to a local network, or try setting the “network” option on the “SafeApiKit” instance.
Try this:
const apiKit = new SafeApiKit({
chainId: '0x...// Replace with your chain ID,
network: 'mainnet'
});
7.
Token Support
If you are using a specific token (e.g. ETH, ETC), make sure it is supported by the safe-api-kit library.
Try this:
const apiKit = new SafeApiKit({
chainId: '0x...// Replace with your chain ID,
tokens: ['eth'] // Use only one of these token types for now
});
By addressing these common issues, you should be able to resolve the issue using safe-api-kit in your Ethereum project.
