import Authereum from 'authereum

const authereum = new Authereum('kovan')

    • mainnet

    • kovan

  • Configuration object and overrides

    • config

      • networkName - default: mainnet

      • apiKey - default: null use your API key

      • rpcUri - default: https://mainnet.rpc.authereum.com

      • webUri - default: https://authereum.com

      • xsUri - default: https://x.authereum.com

      • disableNotifications - default: false

      • blockedPopupRedirect - default true

      • forceRedirect - default false

  • Example:

    const authereum = new Authereum({
      networkName: 'kovan',
      disableNotifications: true
    })
    • Example:

      const authereum = new Authereum({
