The meterify package is a wrapper to house all Meter-related modules, and depends on the web3.js library. If you are writing applications or scripts executing in Node.js or a browser environment, you should use Meterify.

Parameters of the meterify return object

Example

This code...

const meter = require("meterify").meterify;
const Web3 = require("web3");
const meterify = meter(new Web3(), "http://test.meter.io:8669");

...returns an object:

{
  eth: {
    _requestManager: RequestManager,
    givenProvider: MetamaskInpageProvider,
    providers: {…},
    _provider: MeterProvider, 
    …
  },
  givenProvider: {
    mux: ObjectMultiplex,
    publicConfigStore: ObservableStore,
    rpcEngine: RpcEngine,
    send: ƒ
  },
  providers: {
    WebsocketProvider: ƒ,
    HttpProvider: ƒ,
    IpcProvider: ƒ
  },
  utils: {
    _fireError: ƒ,
    _jsonInterfaceMethodToString: ƒ,
    _flattenTypes: ƒ,
    randomHex: ƒ,
    _: ƒ, 
    …
  },
  version: "1.0.0-beta.37",

  },
  _requestManager: {

Notes on meterify and web3

The RESTful API of Meter differs from Ethereum's JSON-RPC, and there are some methods in web3 are not supported by meterify.
