Use the createAbstractClient function to initialize an AbstractClient instance, which provides a set of actions and methods to make use of the Abstract Global Wallet.

​
Import

import { createAbstractClient } from "@abstract-foundation/agw-client";
import type { AbstractClient } from "@abstract-foundation/agw-client"; // Optional

​
Usage

import { createAbstractClient } from "@abstract-foundation/agw-client";
import { generatePrivateKey, privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";
import { abstractTestnet } from "viem/chains";

// As an example, we are creating a new dummy account here for the signer.
const randomPrivateKey = generatePrivateKey(); // Make a random private key
const account = privateKeyToAccount(randomPrivateKey); // Use that to create a signer

const agwClient = await createAbstractClient({
  chain: abstractTestnet,
  signer: account, // The "owner" (initial approved signer) of the AGW smart contract wallet.
});

const hash = await agwClient.sendTransaction({
  to: "0x273B3527BF5b607dE86F504fED49e1582dD2a1C6",
  data: "0x69",
});

console.log("Transaction sent:", `https://explorer.testnet.abs.xyz/tx/${hash}`);
