Verifying Contracts

Verify your smart contracts on MANTRA Chain block explorers

After deploying your contract, verify it on the block explorer to make the source code publicly available and enable users to interact with it.

Using Hardhat

Hardhat Verify Plugin

Install the verification plugin:

npm install --save-dev @nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify

Add to hardhat.config.js:

require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify");

module.exports = {
  // ... other config
  etherscan: {
    apiKey: {
      mantra_testnet: "your-api-key", // Not always required
    },
    customChains: [
      {
        network: "mantra_testnet",
        chainId: 5887,
        urls: {
          apiURL: "https://explorer.dukong.io/api",
          browserURL: "https://explorer.dukong.io"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
};

Verify your contract:

npx hardhat verify --network mantra_testnet <CONTRACT_ADDRESS> <CONSTRUCTOR_ARGS>

Using Foundry

Forge Verify

forge verify-contract <CONTRACT_ADDRESS> \
  src/MyContract.sol:MyContract \
  --chain-id 5887 \
  --etherscan-api-key <API_KEY> \
  --constructor-args <CONSTRUCTOR_ARGS>
