The JsonRpcApiProvider is an abstract class and MUST be sub-classed.

It provides the base for all JSON-RPC-based Provider interaction.

Sub-classing Notes:

  • A sub-class MUST override _send
  • A sub-class MUST call the _start() method once connected

Constructors

new JsonRpcApiProvider()

new JsonRpcApiProvider<C>(network?, options?): JsonRpcApiProvider<C>

Creates a new JsonRpcApiProvider instance.

Parameters

ParameterTypeDescription
network?NetworkishThe network to connect to.
options?JsonRpcApiProviderOptionsThe options for the provider.

Returns

JsonRpcApiProvider<C>

Overrides

AbstractProvider.constructor

Accessors

connect

get connect(): FetchRequest[]

Get the list of connected FetchRequests.

Returns

FetchRequest[]

The list of connected FetchRequests.

providers/abstract-provider.ts:796


destroyed

get destroyed(): boolean

If this provider has been destroyed using the destroy method.

Once destroyed, all resources are reclaimed, internal event loops and timers are cleaned up and no further requests may be sent to the provider.

Returns

boolean

Source

providers/abstract-provider.ts:2037


paused

get paused(): boolean

Whether the provider is currently paused.

A paused provider will not emit any events, and generally should not make any requests to the network, but that is up to sub-classes to manage.

Setting paused = true is identical to calling .pause(false), which will buffer any events that occur while paused until the provider is unpaused.

Returns

boolean

Whether the provider is paused.

providers/abstract-provider.ts:2069


pollingInterval

get pollingInterval(): number

Get the polling interval.

Returns

number

The polling interval.

ready

get ready(): boolean

Returns true only if the JsonRpcApiProvider._start | _start has been called.

Returns

boolean

True if the provider is ready.

send()

send(

now?): Promise<any>

Requests the method with params via the JSON-RPC protocol over the underlying channel. This can be used to call methods on the backend that do not have a high-level API within the Provider API.

This method queues requests according to the batch constraints in the options, assigns the request a unique ID.

Do NOT override this method in sub-classes; instead override JsonRpcApiProvider._send | _send or force the options values in the call to the constructor to modify this method’s behavior.

Parameters

ParameterTypeDescription
methodstringThe method to call.
paramsany[] | Record<string, any>The parameters to pass to the method.
shard?ShardThe shard to send the request to.
now?booleanIf true, the request will be sent immediately.

Returns

Promise<any>

A promise that resolves to the result of the method call.
