Where would I set max listeners?

Hey there,

I tweeted but this may be a better avenue. I see that node has the max listeners set at 10. Where would I update emitter.setMaxListeners(n) to allow subscribing to more than 10 events on the provider?

provider.on(filter, async result => { });

The above stops responding if there are more than 10 filtered events subscribed on the provider. Just not sure where/how to set the limit higher.

thanks

I see it, ha ha. And it does indeed. The events fire fine however, unless I add too many. If this is a max request issue with infura, I can shut down the service that is maxing the requests (which is just a staging version of what I am working on). Else I can run it against a local testnet to see if the event listeners are okay there.

I’ll get back if I figure anything out.

That’s my guess as to what is going on. You exceeded your free limit of calls. 😃

You can pay INFURA (or run your own node) to solve this. If you use the v5 default provider, you will get slightly more mileage, since it will spread your calls out over a bunch of different services.

But at the end of the day, if you rely on free services, they are going to cap how many requests you can make. With v5, you can also try the INFURA WebSocket backend, which might let you listen to more filters, since it is less chatty. 😃
