Switching Networks
This page describes how you can switch networks (secret type) using the web3 provider.
As seen in the advanced example of getting started, it is possible to provide a
secretType when creating the web3 Venly provider.
When you are connected to one network and want to switch to a different network:- call
changeSecretType(secretType)on the provider, this returns a new instance of the provider - Re-initialize Web3:
web3 = new Web3(provider); - If necessary, recreate subscriptions
- Refresh wallets using
web3.eth.getAccounts()(a user can have different wallets depending on the selected chain) - 🎉 All done!
Venly.changeSecretType('BSC').then(provider => {
window.web3 = new Web3(provider);
window.web3.eth.getChainId().then(network => {
//returns the new chainId
});
window.web3.eth.getAccounts(function (err, wallets) {
//returns new wallets for given chain, update your UI accordingly
});
});
