Airdrop

When we're developing on localnet or devnet we can request Sol directly from the blockchain.

import {
  address,
  airdropFactory,
  createSolanaRpc,
  createSolanaRpcSubscriptions,
  devnet,
  lamports
} from '@solana/kit';

const rpc = createSolanaRpc(devnet('http://127.0.0.1:8899'));
const rpcSubscriptions = createSolanaRpcSubscriptions(devnet('ws://127.0.0.1:8900'));

const airdrop = airdropFactory({ rpc, rpcSubscriptions });

await airdrop({
    commitment: 'confirmed',
    recipientAddress: address('FnHyam9w4NZoWR6mKN1CuGBritdsEWZQa4Z4oawLZGxa'),
    lamports: lamports(10_000_000n),
});
