web3client 1.3.4

Batteries-included client to interact with blockchains and smart contracts

Batteries-included client to interact with blockchains and smart contracts; used by web3cli and crabada.py.

Features

• Easily create a client to interact with EVM-compatible chains
• Works with Ethereum, Binance, Avalanche, Arbitrum One, zkSync Era, etc.
• Subscribe to pending transactions in the mempool and new blocks
• Flexible logging of RPC calls and transactions
• Interact with tokens and ETH with the same dual interface
• Includes a client for Compound V2 operations, and its clones
• Save gas by setting an upper limit on the base fee
• Need more flexibility? Use directly the underlying web3.py client

Install

pip3 install -U web3client

Examples

• Stream pending transactions on the zkSync Era network:

  from web3client.base_client import BaseClient
  
  client = BaseClient("wss://mainnet.era.zksync.io/ws")
  client.subscribe(lambda tx, _, __: print(f"Pending tx: {tx}"))
  

• Send 1 ETH and 100 USDC to Unicef, using a dual client:

  from web3client.erc20_client import DualClient
  
  rpc = "https://cloudflare-eth.com"
  private_key = "0x..."
  unicef = "0xA59B29d7dbC9794d1e7f45123C48b2b8d0a34636"
  USDC = "0xa0b86991c6218b36c1d19d4a2e9eb0ce3606eb48"
  
  usdc_client = DualClient(rpc, private_key=private_key, contract_address=USDC)
  usdc_client.send_eth(unicef, 1)
  usdc_client.transfer(unicef, 100)

Test suite web3test

web3client comes with several pytest plugins you can use to test your scripts:

• web3test-ape: fixtures of accounts and smart contracts (erc20, compound, etc)
• web3test-web3client: fixtures of clients for various smart contracts
• web3test-web3factory: fixtures of clients for various chains

To use one or more plugins in your script, add the following lines at the top of your `conftest.py``:

pytest_plugins = [
    "web3test-ape", "web3test-web3client", "web3test-web3factory"
]

The order of the plugins in the aray is important.
