Sepolia testnet chain definition and usage for development and testing

Sepolia is an Ethereum testnet used for development and testing. viem-go does not ship a built-in definitions.Sepolia; define it with DefineChain and the same chain.Chain struct, then pass a pointer to your clients.

Import

import (
  "github.com/ChefBingbong/viem-go/client"
  "github.com/ChefBingbong/viem-go/client/transport"
  "github.com/ChefBingbong/viem-go/chain"
)

Usage

Define the Sepolia chain once (e.g. in an init or package var) and pass a pointer when creating clients.

import (
  "log"

  "github.com/ChefBingbong/viem-go/client"
  "github.com/ChefBingbong/viem-go/client/transport"
  "github.com/ChefBingbong/viem-go/chain"
)

var Sepolia = chain.DefineChain(chain.Chain{
  ID:   11155111,
  Name: "Sepolia",
  NativeCurrency: chain.ChainNativeCurrency{
      Name:     "Sepolia Ether",
      Symbol:   "ETH",
      Decimals: 18,
  },
  BlockTime: int64Ptr(12),
  Testnet:   true,
  RpcUrls: map[string]chain.ChainRpcUrls{
      "default": {
          HTTP: []string{"https://rpc.sepolia.org"},
      },
  },
  BlockExplorers: map[string]chain.ChainBlockExplorer{
      "default": {
          Name:   "Etherscan",
          URL:    "https://sepolia.etherscan.io",
          ApiURL: "https://api-sepolia.etherscan.io/api",
      },
  },
})

func int64Ptr(n int64) *int64 { return &n }

func main() {
  publicClient, err := client.CreatePublicClient(client.PublicClientConfig{
      Chain:     &Sepolia,
      Transport: transport.HTTP("https://rpc.sepolia.org"),
  })
  if err != nil {
      log.Fatal(err)
  }
  defer publicClient.Close()
}

Go notes

No built-in: There is no definitions.Sepolia in viem-go. Use chain.DefineChain(chain.Chain{...}) as above and keep the result (e.g. package-level var); pass &Sepolia to clients.
RPC URL: You can use Sepolia.DefaultRpcUrl() if your definition's RpcUrls["default"].HTTP[0] is set, or pass any Sepolia RPC URL to transport.HTTP(...).

import ( "log" "github.com/ChefBingbong/viem-go/client" "github.com/ChefBingbong/viem-go/client/transport" "github.com/ChefBingbong/viem-go/chain" ) var Sepolia = chain.DefineChain(chain.Chain{ ID: 11155111, Name: "Sepolia", NativeCurrency: chain.ChainNativeCurrency{ Name: "Sepolia Ether", Symbol: "ETH", Decimals: 18, }, BlockTime: int64Ptr(12), Testnet: true, RpcUrls: map[string]chain.ChainRpcUrls{ "default": { HTTP: []string{"https://rpc.sepolia.org"}, }, }, BlockExplorers: map[string]chain.ChainBlockExplorer{ "default": { Name: "Etherscan", URL: "https://sepolia.etherscan.io", ApiURL: "https://api-sepolia.etherscan.io/api", }, }, }) func int64Ptr(n int64) *int64 { return &n } func main() { publicClient, err := client.CreatePublicClient(client.PublicClientConfig{ Chain: &Sepolia, Transport: transport.HTTP("https://rpc.sepolia.org"), }) if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) } defer publicClient.Close() }
