yarn test issues - does not connect to uniswap - gettingtimeouts about cafe-chi

In tests/setup.js can you all take a look at the following lines?

const infura = {
  type: "WS_Infura",
  envKeyID: "PROVIDER_INFURA_ID" // This is the name of the env variable storing the ID, NOT THE ID ITSELF
};
const alchemy = {
  type: "WS_Alchemy",
  envKeyKey: "PROVIDER_ALCHEMY_KEY" // This is the name of the env variable storing the key, NOT THE KEY ITSELF
};
web3.mainnet = new MultiSendProvider("mainnet", [infura, alchemy]);

Feel free to delete either the infura or alchemy entry; you only need one. But Do make sure that envKeyID and envKeyKey point to the name of the environment variable not ID/key itself. The idea here is that your private info will never be plain-text in the code. Getting this wrong would cause Infura and Alchemy to timeout, since the code would see an undefined ID/key.

If the issue remains after checking this, feel free to reopen this issue. Thanks!

Hi @mjsmorgan, thanks for your interest in Cafe-Chi.

When I wrote the tests I was focused on my local machine, on which I could connect to Geth via IPC. It's probably timing out for you because it takes longer to communicate with Infura/Alchemy APIs than it does to communicate over IPC. I'll try to push a fix this weekend, but in the mean time you should be able to fix this by adding .timeout(10000) after each failing test.

Example:

it("should retrieve name", async () => {
  return Pair.chi_eth
    .name()(web3.ganache)
    .then(x => assert(x === "Uniswap V2"));
}).timeout(10000);

See this thread for other options. You may be able to just update the test command in package.json with the flag --timeout 10000, though I haven't tried that method myself.

@haydenshively thanks for your work.
i hit the same problem. increasing timeout does not bring anything. thnks for pointing out using local geth. I'm using infura but also tried alchemy. I can see there are informations requested on the servers of infura (and alchemy) by tcpdump, but it seems to fail since no requests are counted in the dashboard of infura.

@martinsteldinger I noticed the same thing using iftop.....it is connecting, but the connection is rejected for some reason

I was only able to replicate these results after uninstalling/reinstalling dependencies, so I assume some package was updated and broke compatibility. Looking into it now

This only happened once, so I don't think it's the root cause
