connect

connect is a method on AccountSigner that you can call to connect an EthersProviderAdapter to this Signer. This lets the returned AccountSigner leverage the provider when signing messages, sending user operations and transactions for the smart account using the signer.

Usage

example.ts

import { accountSigner } from "./ethers-signer";
 
// changing the ethers provider for the account signer
const alchemy = new Alchemy({
  apiKey: process.env.API_KEY!,
  network: Network.SEPOLIA, // new chain -> new provider
});
const ethersProvider = await alchemy.config.getProvider();
const newProvider = EthersProviderAdapter.fromEthersProvider(ethersProvider);
 
// connecting the account signer to ethers
const newAccountSigner = accountSigner.connect(newProvider);

Returns

`AccountSigner`

A new instance of a connected AccountSigner

Parameters

`provider: EthersProviderAdapter`

the EthersProviderAdapter to connect with this AccountSigner
