TS SDK FAQ
The TypeScript SDK is currently not avaliable to use: a network upgrade elsewhere has caused a problem which is not currently fixed. TS SDK Clients are not able to connect to the network.
When the issue is resolved, this will be reflected in the documentation.
Thanks for your patience!
Why and when does the mixnet client complain about insufficient topology?
It will in one of the following cases:
- There are empty mix layers - although this is rare;
- The gateway you've registered with does not appear in the network topology -> it is either unbonded or was blacklisted;
- The gateway you want to send packets to does not appear in the network topology -> it is either unbonded or was blacklisted;
To avoid the last two, you need to make sure the gateway you are calling is bonded and whitelisted.
How can I check whether the gateway I am connecting to is bonded and not blacklisted?
The easiest way of checking what gateway you're registered with is to look at your client address.
Client addresses are in the format of:
client-id . client-dh @ gateway-id.
To illustrate this: DpB3cHAchJiNBQi5FrZx2csXb1mrHkpYh9Wzf8Rjsuko.ANNWrvHqMYuertHGHUrZdBntQhpzfbWekB39qez9U2Vx@2BuMSfMW3zpeAjKXyKLhmY4QW1DXurrtSPEJ6CjX3SEh
DpB3cHAchJiNBQi5FrZx2csXb1mrHkpYh9Wzf8Rjsuko: is the client's identity key;ANNWrvHqMYuertHGHUrZdBntQhpzfbWekB39qez9U2Vx: is the client's Diffie Hellman key;2BuMSfMW3zpeAjKXyKLhmY4QW1DXurrtSPEJ6CjX3SEh: is the gateway's identity, which is what you'll need to check the state of the gateway in the Nym Explorer (opens in a new tab).
