Import the ethers and @kaiachain/ethers-ext modules to add kaia features on ethers.js.

Define sender address and private key

Set up the provider with the specified kairos testnet URL. A provider in ethers is a read-only abstraction to access the blockchain data.

Also, you can change the provider URL from kairos to quicknode

create a wallet from sender private key and web3 provider

Set the Abi generated from solidity code

Define contract address to interact with

Create a contract instance with ethers.Contract, fill in params contractAddr, abi, provider. You can read and write the contract through this instance

Get the number value before updated by using method counter.number()

Create a transaction data to update the number value

Create a transaction object with data from previous step with type SmartContractExecution

Send the tx to the blockchain. Function sendTransaction internally signs with the private key of the account and then transmits it to the blockchain network.

The wait function returns the tx receipt if it is completed in the blockchain.

Get the updated value number by using method counter.number()
