validator.update

Updates validator information. Only callable by the validator themselves.

Usage

import { client } from './viem.config'
 
const { receipt } = await client.validator.updateSync({
  newValidatorAddress: '0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc9e7595f0bEbb',
  publicKey: '0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef',
  inboundAddress: '192.168.1.1:8080',
  outboundAddress: '192.168.1.1:8080',
})
 
console.log('Transaction hash:', receipt.transactionHash)
Transaction hash: 0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef

Asynchronous Usage

The example above uses a *Sync variant of the action, that will wait for the transaction to be included before returning.

If you are optimizing for performance, you should use the non-sync validator.update action and wait for inclusion manually:

import { client } from './viem.config'
 
const hash = await client.validator.update({
  newValidatorAddress: '0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc9e7595f0bEbb',
  publicKey: '0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef',
  inboundAddress: '192.168.1.1:8080',
  outboundAddress: '192.168.1.1:8080',
})
const receipt = await client.waitForTransactionReceipt({ hash })
