Configure the Request Client

Configure the client

The following command creates a new Request Client instance and configures it to :

• Connect to the Gnosis Request Node Gateway maintained by the Request Network Foundation.

• Use the web3-signature package to create requests using a web3 wallet like Metamask.

const web3SignatureProvider = new Web3SignatureProvider(provider);
const requestClient = new RequestNetwork({
  nodeConnectionConfig: { 
    baseURL: 'https://xdai.gateway.request.network/' 
  },
  signatureProvider: web3SignatureProvider,
});

Mock Storage

To create mock storage requests, where the request is stored in memory on the local machine and cleared as soon as the script is finished running, set the useMockStorage argument to true when instantiating the RequestNetworkobject.

const requestClient = new RequestNetwork({
  useMockStorage: true,
});
