Lesson 4： can't find AggregatorV3Interface.sol

[Bellatlich]

In docs.chain.link i find the example data feed contract, but in chainlink github i can't find the ABI contract. i find its path written in contract didnt change but in that path i cant find it(@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol)
so what can i import?

[Bellatlich]

i find it in v0.7 and change my solidity version, then i successfully run the contract, but i still want to find AggregatorV3Interface.sol
where is it?

[SimSimButDifferent]

try import with this @chainlink/blob/develop/contracts/src/v0.7/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol

the contract is here. Hope this helps.

404 - page not found

import "@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol"; worked for me with 0.8.8 version;

I followed Patrick's example in here: https://github.com/PatrickAlphaC/fund-me-fcc/blob/main/PriceConverter.sol

If you want to check the inner code in AggregatorV3Interface.sol, you can go directly to the Chainlink repo:
https://github.com/smartcontractkit/chainlink/blob/master/contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol

Hope this helps! 🦾

As mentioned by @jujuvideogirlai i have manually created a file at node_modules/@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol.
and it worked

I tried to access the Chainlink repository via the link, but it's returning a 404 Not Found.

Hey guys the updated link now is the following:

import "@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol";

as mentioned by @jujuvideogirlai import "@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol"; is not working for me, neither for version 0.8.8 nor 0.8.7

This works with solidity version 0.8.7 for me.

@Bellatlich

The whole problem is with your chainlink package version, just use same as it is in course repo (check yarn.lock file). Then you can use same path as it is in course. Otherwise just check your node_modules folder and find where exactly Aggregator is located, if there is not Aggregator found at all just go back to downgrading @chainlink/contracts version :)

I run "yarn add @chainlink/contracts@v0.8" and AggregatorV3Interface.sol came up.
yes just add the @v0.8 tag, so what's the difference?
I checked the log, you know what, it's @chainlink/contracts@v1.1.0 when I run "yarn add @chainlink/contracts"! but why there are same directory named src/v0.8? that's the reason I didn't think to specific the version until now. is the directory name just for solidity v0.8?

[sirinibin]

@Bellatlich Its here https://github.com/smartcontractkit/chainlink/blob/develop/contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol

[TatyOko28]

The correct import path for AggregatorV3Interface.sol in Chainlink v0.8+ is:

import "@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol";

If you can't find it in GitHub, ensure you have installed the correct Chainlink dependency:

npm install @chainlink/contracts

You can also check older versions on GitHub: https://github.com/smartcontractkit/chainlink.

If you're facing same issue right now, it's probably because foundry cannot locate the chainlink contract interface (AggregatorV3Interface.sol) at the path specified in your solidity import statement and foundry.toml remappings.

The easy solution is: go to your foundry.toml. your remapping should be:

remappings = [
    "@chainlink-brownie-contracts/=lib/chainlink-brownie-contracts/contracts/",
    "forge-std/=lib/forge-std/src/",
]

Ensure your Solidity contract files (FundMe.sol, PriceConverter.sol, etc.) use the standard import path for Chainlink contracts:

import {AggregatorV3Interface} from "@chainlink-brownie-contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol";

Open your terminal, run forge build, and your code should compile.

nice

New path: https://github.com/smartcontractkit/chainlink-evm/blob/develop/contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol

I had the same error where the AggregatorV3Interface.sol file was not being recognized. What I did was the following:

First, I ran this command to install the Chainlink contracts repository:

forge install smartcontractkit/chainlink-evm@.

This installed the contracts inside the lib/chainlink-evm folder in my project.

After that, I created a file called remappings.txt in the root of my project and added this line:

@chainlink/contracts/=lib/chainlink-evm/contracts/

This tells Foundry how to find the Chainlink contract files when I use imports in my code.

Finally, in my Solidity contract, I imported the interface using:

import "@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol";

Worked for me, thanks boss!

[metuDein]

god bless you

[Sukanto01899]

Try to import this.

import {AggregatorV3Interface} from "@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol";

[devloperaziz1280]

yeah its correct chainlink updated their repo so that is why it throughs error **not found**

In docs.chain.link i find the example data feed contract, but in chainlink github i can't find the ABI contract. i find its path written in contract didnt change but in that path i cant find it(@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol) so what can i import?

paste this line in your code. it's also given in chainlink documentation. at the time i'm writing this, this works perfectly fine.

import {AggregatorV3Interface} from "@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol";

if this doesn't work for you, please refer to the documentation for any new update in the url:
https://docs.chain.link/data-feeds/getting-started

[BhariGowda]

The confusion is because Chainlink moved the file from interfaces/ to shared/interfaces/. Here's the complete fix for both setups:

---

If you're using Foundry:

forge install smartcontractkit/chainlink-brownie-contracts --no-commit

Add to your foundry.toml remappings:

remappings = [
    "@chainlink-brownie-contracts/=lib/chainlink-brownie-contracts/contracts/",
    "forge-std/=lib/forge-std/src/",
]

Then import:

import {AggregatorV3Interface} from "@chainlink-brownie-contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol";

---

If you're using Hardhat/npm:

npm install @chainlink/contracts

Then import:

import {AggregatorV3Interface} from "@chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol";

---

The old path @chainlink/contracts/src/v0.8/interfaces/AggregatorV3Interface.sol no longer exists. The current path is src/v0.8/shared/interfaces/. Always refer to the official docs for the latest import path.
