ChainName

This component fetches then shows the name of a chain. It inherits all the attributes of a HTML <span> component, hence you can style it just like how you would style a normal <span>

Example

Basic usage

import { ChainProvider, ChainName } from "thirdweb/react";
import { ethereum } from "thirdweb/chains";
 
<ChainProvider {...props}>
  <ChainName />
</ChainProvider>;

Result:

<span>Ethereum Mainnet</span>

Custom name resolver

By default ChainName will call the thirdweb API to retrieve the chain name. However if you have a different way to fetch the name, you can pass the function to the nameResolver prop. Note: nameResolver should either be a string or a function (async) that returns a string.

async function fetchNameMethod() {
  // your own fetching logic
  return "the chain name";
}
 
<ChainName nameResolver={fetchNameMethod} />;

Alternatively you can also pass in a string directly:

<ChainName nameResolver="ETH Mainnet" />;

Format the name (capitalize, truncate, etc.)

The ChainName component accepts a formatFn which takes in a string and outputs a string The function is used to modify the name of the chain

const concatStr = (str: string):string => str + "Network"
 
<ChainProvider {...props}>
  <ChainName formatFn={concatStr} />
</ChainProvider>

Result:

<span>Ethereum Mainnet Network</span>

Show a loading sign when the name is being fetched

import { ChainProvider, ChainName } from "thirdweb/react";
 
<ChainProvider {...props}>
  <ChainName loadingComponent={<Spinner />} />
</ChainProvider>;

Fallback to something when the name fails to resolve

<ChainProvider {...props}>
  <ChainName fallbackComponent={"Failed to load"} />
</ChainProvider>;

Custom query options for useQuery

This component uses @tanstack-query 's useQuery internally. You can use the queryOptions prop for more fine-grained control

<ChainName
  queryOptions={{
    enabled: isEnabled,
    retry: 4,
  }}
/>;
function ChainName(__namedParameters: ChainNameProps): null | Element;
