Here is a step-by-step guide on how to get the Solana token account address in Solana using Anchor:
Step 1: Make sure you have the solana-client
library installed
First, make sure you have the solana-client
library installed by running:
npm install solana-client
or
yarn add solana-client
Step 2: Initialize the Anchor program and create a new account
Initialize the Anchor program and create a new account for your token. You can use the following code:
import { anchorProgram } from '../index.js';
// Create a new program id
const programId = '0x...'; // Replace with your desired program ID
// Initialize the Anchor Program
anchorProgram.init({ programs: [programId] })
.then((instance) => {
console.log(Anchor instance initialized successfully!
);
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
});
Replace 0x...
with your desired program ID. This will create a new program instance for the Solana token.
Step 3: Get the associated token address
Now, you can use the following code to get the associated token address using Anchor:
import {account} from '../index.js';
// Create a new program ID (same as in Step 2)
const programId = '0x...'; // Replace with the desired program ID
// Get the associated token address
account.getAssociatedTokenAddressSync(programId).then((associatedToken) => {
console.log(Associated Token Account Address: ${associatedToken}
);
}).catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
});
This code uses the getAssociatedTokenAddressSync()
function to get the associated token address for a given program ID. The associated token account address is stored in the account
object.
Putting it all together
Here is the full code:
import { anchorProgram } from '../index.js';
import {account} from '../index.js';
// Create a new program ID (same as in Step 2)
const programId = '0x...'; // Replace with the desired program ID
// Initialize the Anchor program
anchorProgram.init({ programs: [programId] })
.then((instance) => {
console.log(Anchor instance initialized successfully!
);
// Get the associated token address
account.getAssociatedTokenAddressSync(programId).then((associatedToken) => {
console.log(Associated Token account address: ${associatedToken}
);
}).catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
});
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
});
Replace 0x...
with your desired program ID. This code will initialize the Anchor program, create a new account for your token, and then get the associated token address.
