deploy wait

[Saber1Y]

who else is watching on sep 2023 and is unable to use "deployTransaction.wait()."?

const contractFactory = new ethers.ContractFactory(abi, binary, wallet);
console.log("Deplyoing, please wait...")
const contract = await contractFactory.deploy();
await contract.deployTransaction.wait("1");
const favouriteNumber = await contractFactory.retrieve();
console.log(favouriteNumber);

error: PS C:\Users\PC\hh-fcc\ehters-simple-storage> node deploy.js
Deplyoing, please wait...
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'wait')
at main (C:\Users\PC\hh-fcc\ehters-simple-storage\deploy.js:16:38)

Hello @Saber1Y

You are probably using ethers v6 and that is why you are getting this error. Whole course was made on ethers v5, so downgrade your ethers to 5 and it should be resolved

Here is solution for ethers v6: link

yes the updates are confusing,i mean i can't even import from the library...smh

The line await contract.deployTransaction.wait("1"); ethers v5 becomes await contract.waitForDeployment("1") in v6
