InvalidArgsError

Represents an error that occurs when the arguments provided to a function or method are invalid.

This error is typically encountered when a function receives arguments that don’t match the expected types or format.

Example

import { InvalidArgsError } from '@tevm/errors'
import { createMemoryClient } from '@tevm/memory-client'


const client = createMemoryClient()


try {
  await client.contract({
    address: '0x...',
    functionName: 'transfer',
    args: ['not_an_address', 'not_a_number'], // Invalid args
    abi: [...],
  })
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof InvalidArgsError) {
    console.error('Invalid arguments:', error.message)
    console.log('Documentation:', error.docsLink)
  }
}
