fhevmjs uses ESM format for web version and commonjs for node version. You need to set the type to "commonjs" in your package.json to load the correct version of fhevmjs. If your node project use "type": "module", you can force the loading of the Node version by using import { createInstance } from 'fhevmjs/node';
Create an instance
const { createInstance, getPublicKeyCallParams } = require("fhevmjs");
const { ethers, JsonRpcProvider } = require("ethers");
const provider = new JsonRpcProvider(`https://devnet.zama.ai/`);
const createFhevmInstance = async () => {
// 1. Get the chain id
const network = await provider.getNetwork();
const chainId = +network.chainId.toString();
// 2. Fetch the FHE public key from the blockchain
const ret = await provider.call(getPublicKeyCallParams());
const decoded = ethers.AbiCoder.defaultAbiCoder().decode(["bytes"], ret);
const publicKey = decoded[0];
// 3. Create the instance
return createInstance({ chainId, publicKey });
};
createFhevmInstance().then((instance) => {
console.log(instance);
});
