Chains

@wagmi/core exports the Mainnet (mainnet) & Goerli (goerli) chains out-of-the-box.

import { mainnet, goerli } from '@wagmi/core'

If you wish to extend to other EVM-compatible chains (like Polygon, Optimism, BSC, Avalanche, etc), you can either import the chain directly from the @wagmi/core/chains entrypoint, or build it yourself.

@wagmi/core/chains

The @wagmi/core/chains entrypoint proxies the @wagmi/chains NPM package, an official wagmi package which contains references to popular EVM-compatible chains such as: Polygon, Optimism, Avalanche, and more.

Usage

Import your chains from the entrypoint and use them in your wagmi app:

import { configureChains } from '@wagmi/core'
import { avalanche, bsc, mainnet } from '@wagmi/core/chains'
 
const { chains, provider } = configureChains(
  [mainnet, avalanche, bsc],
  ...
)

Build your own

You can also extend wagmi to support other EVM-compatible chains by building your own chain object that inherits the Chain type.

import { Chain } from '@wagmi/core'
 
export const avalanche: Chain = {
  id: 43_114,
  name: 'Avalanche',
  network: 'avalanche',
  nativeCurrency: {
    decimals: 18,
    name: 'Avalanche',
    symbol: 'AVAX',
  },
  rpcUrls: {
    default: { http: ['https://api.avax.network/ext/bc/C/rpc'] },
  },
  blockExplorers: {
    etherscan: { name: 'SnowTrace', url: 'https://snowtrace.io' },
    default: { name: 'SnowTrace', url: 'https://snowtrace.io' },
  },
