useClient

function useClient<TClient>(): Client<TClient>;

Reads the Kit client published by the nearest ClientProvider. Throws a SolanaError with code SOLANA_ERROR__REACT__MISSING_PROVIDER if no provider is mounted in the ancestor tree.

Defaults to the base Client shape. Callers who know a specific plugin is installed may widen the type via the generic — this is a pure cast with no runtime capability check, so reach for useClientCapability when a missing plugin should fail loudly at mount instead of surfacing later as undefined.

Type Parameters

Returns

Client<TClient>

Example

import { ClientWithRpc, GetEpochInfoApi } from '@solana/kit';
import { useClient } from '@solana/react';
 
function ManualSend() {
    const client = useClient<ClientWithRpc<GetEpochInfoApi>>();
    return <button onClick={() => client.rpc.getEpochInfo().send()}>Fetch</button>;
}
