getFilterChanges

Returns a list of logs or hashes based on a Filter since the last time it was called.

A Filter can be created from the following actions:

Usage

Blocks

example.ts
import { publicClient } from './client'
 
const filter = await publicClient.createBlockFilter() 
const hashes = await publicClient.getFilterChanges({ filter })
Output: ["0x10d86dc08ac2f18f00ef0daf7998dcc8673cbcf1f1501eeb2fac1afd2f851128", ...]

Contract Events

example.ts
import { publicClient } from './client'
 
const filter = await publicClient.createContractEventFilter({ 
  address: '0xa0b86991c6218b36c1d19d4a2e9eb0ce3606eb48',
  abi: wagmiAbi,
  eventName: 'Transfer'
})
const logs = await publicClient.getFilterChanges({ filter })
Output: [{ ... }, { ... }, { ... }]

Raw Events

example.ts
import { parseAbiItem } from 'viem'
import { publicClient } from './client'
 
const filter = await publicClient.createEventFilter({ 
  address: '0xa0b86991c6218b36c1d19d4a2e9eb0ce3606eb48',
  event: parseAbiItem('event Transfer(address indexed, address indexed, uint256)'),
})
const logs = await publicClient.getFilterChanges({ filter })
Output: [{ ... }, { ... }, { ... }]

Transactions

example.ts
import { publicClient } from './client'
 
const filter = await publicClient.createPendingTransactionFilter() 
const hashes = await publicClient.getFilterChanges({ filter })
Output: ["0x89b3aa1c01ca4da5d15eca9fab459d062db5c0c9b76609acb0741901f01f6d19", ...]
