alchemyGasManagerMiddleware

alchemyGasManagerMiddleware is a middleware method you can use to easily leverage our Gas Manager (an EIP-4337 Paymaster) for sponsoring user operations.

Usage

ts
import {
  alchemyGasManagerMiddleware,
  createAlchemyRpcClient,
} from "@alchemy/aa-alchemy";
import { createSmartAccountClient } from "@alchemy/aa-core";
import { http } from "viem";
import { sepolia } from "viem/chains";

const alchemyClient = createAlchemyRpcClient({
  transport: http("ALCHEMY_RPC_URL"),
  chain: sepolia,
});

// Use this middleware generator to set up your account to use Alchemy's Gas Manager Service
const clientAlchemyGasManager = createSmartAccountClient({
  ...config,
  ...alchemyGasManagerMiddleware(alchemyClient, {
    policyId: PAYMASTER_POLICY_ID,
  }),
});

Returns

Pick<ClientMiddlewareConfig, "paymasterAndData" | "feeEstimator" | "gasEstimator">

A set of ClientMiddlewareFn that will get the paymaster and data fields from Alchemy's Gas Manager, and optionally do gas / fee estimation.

Parameters

client: ClientWithAlchemyMethods -- an PublicClient that is connected to Alchemy's RPC
