TypeError this.provider.sendAsync

[wilbarnes]

Hello,

I was working through the tutorial https://developer.dharma.io/tutorials/create

dharma-chain running on 8545

const { Dharma, Web3 } = require("@dharmaprotocol/dharma.js");
const BigNumber = require("bignumber.js");

const host = "http://localhost:8545";
const dharma = new Dharma(host);

async function loanreq() {

    const { LoanRequest } = Dharma.Types;

    const loanRequest = await LoanRequest.create(dharma, {
        principalAmount: new BigNumber(1),
        principalToken: "WETH",
        collateralAmount: new BigNumber(20),
        collateralToken: "REP",
        interestRate: new BigNumber(3),
        termDuration: new BigNumber(3),
        termUnit: "months",
        expiresInDuration: new BigNumber(1),
        expiresInUnit: "weeks"
    });
    console.log(loanRequest);
}

loanreq()

Output

Was simply trying to print the loanRequest

@wilbarnes I'm experiencing this as well when using the dharma-chain - I believe it may be related to the fact that the version of web3 dharma.js is using ("web3": "~0.20.7") expects a Web3.Provider instead of a "string" as the tutorial suggests. https://github.com/ethereum/web3.js/tree/master#usage
