eth_gasPrice code examples
const { ethers } = require("ethers");
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider("CHAINSTACK_NODE_URL");
async function getGasPrice() {
const feeData = await provider.getFeeData();
console.log(`Gas price: ${ethers.formatUnits(feeData.gasPrice, "gwei")} gwei`);
}
getGasPrice();
from web3 import Web3
node_url = "CHAINSTACK_NODE_URL"
web3 = Web3(Web3.HTTPProvider(node_url))
gas_price = web3.eth.gas_price
print(f'Gas price: {web3.from_wei(gas_price, "gwei")} gwei')
Use case
A practical use case foreth_gasPrice is calculating transaction costs before sending transactions, allowing users to see estimated fees in their wallet or DApp interface.Last modified on June 22, 2026
