How to Resolve a Name Using the Space ID SDK

Step 1: Setup Your Project

1. Install Node.js and npm Ensure you have Node.js and npm installed. You can download them from Node.js official website.

2. Create a New Project Open your terminal and create a new project directory:

mkdir spaceid-tutorial
cd spaceid-tutorial
npm init -y

3. Install the Space ID SDK Install the Space ID SDK package using npm:

Copy code
npm install @spaceid/sdk

Step 2: Write the Code to Resolve a Name

1. Create a JavaScript File Create a file named resolveName.js in your project directory.

2. Import the Space ID SDK At the top of resolveName.js, import the Space ID SDK:

const { SpaceID } = require('@spaceid/sdk');

3. Initialize the Space ID SDK Initialize the SDK with the necessary parameters:

const spaceId = new SpaceID({
    endpoint: 'https://api.spaceid.io', // API endpoint
    apiKey: 'your_api_key' // Replace with your actual API key
});

1. Resolve a Name Write a function to resolve a name using the SDK:

async function resolveName(name) {
    try {
        const result = await spaceId.resolveName(name);
        console.log(`Address for ${name}: ${result.address}`);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error resolving name:', error);
    }
}

1. Call the Function Call the resolveName function with a sample name:

resolveName('example.eth');

Step 3: Run the Code

1. Run the Script In your terminal, run the script:

node resolveName.js

2. View the Result If everything is set up correctly, you should see the resolved address for the provided name in the terminal output.

Example Code

Here’s the complete code for resolveName.js:

const { SpaceID } = require('@spaceid/sdk');

const spaceId = new SpaceID({
    endpoint: 'https://api.spaceid.io',
    apiKey: 'your_api_key'
});

async function resolveName(name) {
    try {
        const result = await spaceId.resolveName(name);
        console.log(`Address for ${name}: ${result.address}`);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error resolving name:', error);
    }
}

resolveName('example.eth');

Replace ‘your_api_key’ with your actual API key and ‘example.eth’ with the name you want to resolve. You can read more in this blog.
