import { JsonRpcProvider } from 'ethers';
// Connect to Manta Pacific mainnet
const provider = new JsonRpcProvider(
'https://api-manta-pacific-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY'
);
// Get the latest block
const block = await provider.getBlock('latest');
console.log('Latest block:', block.number);
// Query account balance
const balance = await provider.getBalance('0x...');
console.log('Balance:', balance.toString());const Web3 = require('web3');
// Connect to Manta Pacific mainnet
const web3 = new Web3(
'https://api-manta-pacific-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY'
);
// Get chain ID to verify connection
const chainId = await web3.eth.getChainId();
console.log('Connected to Manta Pacific:', chainId === 169);
// Get gas price for optimal transaction pricing
const gasPrice = await web3.eth.getGasPrice();
console.log('Current gas price:', gasPrice);import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem';
// Create client (without predefined chain)
const client = createPublicClient({
transport: http('https://api-manta-pacific-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY'),
});
// Read contract data
const data = await client.readContract({
address: '0x...',
abi: contractAbi,
functionName: 'balanceOf',
args: ['0x...'],
});Network Information

API Reference
Manta Pacific supports the standard Ethereum JSON-RPC 2.0 API. Access common methods for blocks, transactions, logs, traces, and debugging.
Common Integration Patterns
Transaction Monitoring
Monitor pending and confirmed transactions efficiently:
// Watch for transaction confirmation
async function waitForTransaction(txHash) {
const receipt = await provider.waitForTransaction(txHash, 1);
return receipt;
}Gas Optimization
Use EIP‑1559 dynamic fees for predictable pricing:
const feeData = await provider.getFeeData();
const tx = {
to: '0x...',
value: 0n,
maxFeePerGas: feeData.maxFeePerGas,
maxPriorityFeePerGas: feeData.maxPriorityFeePerGas,
gasLimit: 21000n,
};Event Filtering
Efficiently query contract events:
// Query events with automatic retry and pagination
async function getEvents(contract, eventName, fromBlock = 0) {
const filter = contract.filters[eventName]();
const events = [];
const batchSize = 2000; // Manta Pacific recommended batch size
for (let i = fromBlock; i <= currentBlock; i += batchSize) {
const batch = await contract.queryFilter(
filter,
i,
Math.min(i + batchSize - 1, currentBlock)
);
events.push(...batch);
}
return events;
}Performance Best Practices
1. Batch Requests
Combine multiple RPC calls for optimal performance:
const batch = [
{ method: 'eth_blockNumber', params: [] },
{ method: 'eth_gasPrice', params: [] },
{ method: 'eth_getBalance', params: [address, 'latest'] }
];
const results = await provider.send(batch);2. Connection Pooling
Reuse provider instances to minimize connection overhead:
// Singleton pattern for provider
class Manta PacificProvider {
static instance = null;
static getInstance() {
if (!this.instance) {
this.instance = new JsonRpcProvider(
'https://api-manta-pacific-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY'
);
}
return this.instance;
}
}3. Smart Caching
Cache immutable data to reduce API calls:
const cache = new Map();
async function getCachedBlockData(blockNumber) {
const key = `block_${blockNumber}`;
if (!cache.has(key)) {
const block = await provider.getBlock(blockNumber);
cache.set(key, block);
}
return cache.get(key);
}Troubleshooting Common Issues
Error: "Insufficient funds"
Always check the account balance against the estimated gas cost:
const balance = await provider.getBalance(address);
const gas = await provider.estimateGas(tx);
const maxCost = gas * (tx.maxFeePerGas ?? 0n) + (tx.value ?? 0n);
if (balance < maxCost) throw new Error('Insufficient funds');Error: "Transaction underpriced"
Manta Pacific uses EIP-1559 pricing. Always use dynamic gas pricing:
// Get current fee data
const feeData = await provider.getFeeData();
const tx = {
to: recipient,
value: amount,
maxFeePerGas: feeData.maxFeePerGas,
maxPriorityFeePerGas: feeData.maxPriorityFeePerGas,
gasLimit: 21000n
};Error: "Rate limit exceeded"
Implement exponential backoff for resilient applications:
async function callWithRetry(fn, maxRetries = 3) {
for (let i = 0; i < maxRetries; i++) {
try {
return await fn();
} catch (error) {
if (error.code === 429 && i < maxRetries - 1) {
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 2 ** i * 1000));
} else {
throw error;
}
}
}
}Migration Guide
From Ethereum Mainnet
Moving from L1 to Manta Pacific L2 requires minimal changes:
// Before (Ethereum)
const provider = new JsonRpcProvider('https://eth-rpc.example.com');
// After (Manta Pacific)
const provider = new JsonRpcProvider(
'https://api-manta-pacific-mainnet.n.dwellir.com/YOUR_API_KEY'
);
// Smart contracts work identically
// Same tooling and libraries
// Note: Different chain ID (169)
// Note: Separate block numbersResources & Tools
