getEnsText โ€‹

Gets a text record for specified ENS name.

Calls resolve(bytes, bytes) on ENS Universal Resolver Contract.

Usage โ€‹

ts
import { normalize } from 'viem/ens'
import { publicClient } from './client'
 
const ensText = await publicClient.getEnsText({
  name: normalize('wagmi-dev.eth'),
  key: 'com.twitter',
})
// 'wagmi_sh'
ts
import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem'

import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains'

export const publicClient = createPublicClient({
  chain: mainnet,
  transport: http()
})

WARNING

Since ENS names prohibit certain forbidden characters (e.g. underscore) and have other validation rules, you likely want to normalize ENS names with UTS-46 normalization before passing them to getEnsAddress. You can use the built-in normalize function for this.

Returns โ€‹

string | null

The text record for ENS name.

Returns null if name does not have text assigned.
