How to Integrate with the Ethereum Blockchain using Javascript
How to Integrate with the Ethereum Blockchain using Javascript
#Installation
To interact with the EVM network, you can use either ethers.js or web3.js libraries with Magic.
To get started, install the following dependencies for your project:
#Ethers.js
NPM
Yarn
CDN
01npm install ethers magic-sdk
#Web3.js
NPM
Yarn
CDN
01npm install web3 magic-sdk
#Initialization
The Magic class is the entry-point to the Magic SDK. It must be instantiated with a Magic publishable key.
important
Ethereum provider is only supported in magic-sdk@1.0.1 or later versions.

05const web3 = new Web3(magic.rpcProvider); // Or window.web3 = ...
#Mainnet
Mainnet Block Explorer: https://etherscan.io
Javascript
01const magic = new Magic('YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_API_KEY', {
02 network: 'mainnet',
03});
04
05// Magic's node infrastructure maps 'mainnet' and 'testnet' to 2 unique set of addresses.
#Testnet
Sepolia Block Explorer: https://sepolia.etherscan.io/
Sepolia Testnet Faucet: https://sepoliafaucet.com/
Javascript
01const magic = new Magic('YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_API_KEY', {
02 network: 'sepolia',
03});
04
05// Magic's node infrastructure maps 'mainnet' and 'sepolia' to 2 unique set of addresses.
#Custom Node
You can allow specific URLs to interact with the Magic SDK, such as a custom RPC URL to send transactions to your node. The Content Security Policy (CSP) of a browser dictates what resources can be loaded. If you're using a Dedicated Wallet, you can update the policy in the settings page of the dashboard with your custom URL. If you're using a Universal Wallet, please reach out to support to get your URL added.
important
The use of a custom node will require the RPC URL to the project's Content Security Policy from your Magic dashboard. Refer to the CSP documentation.
Javascript
01const customNodeOptions = {
02 rpcUrl: 'http://127.0.0.1:7545', // Your own node URL
03 chainId: 1011, // Your own node's chainId
04};
05
06// Setting network to localhost blockchain
07const magic = new Magic('YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_API_KEY', {
08 network: customNodeOptions,
09});
10
11// This configuration will map addresses in line with Magic's 'mainnet' setup.
#Common Methods
note
All Web.js examples are using web3@1.2.0 or later version.

In this example, we'll be demonstrating how to use Magic with ethers.js or web3.js to interact with Solidity smart contracts. The simple Hello World contract allows anyone to read and write a message to it.
Solidity
01pragma solidity ^0.5.10;
02
03contract HelloWorld {
04
05 string public message;
06
07 constructor(string memory initMessage) public {
08 message = initMessage;
09 }
10
11 function update(string memory newMessage) public {
