`eth_getLogs`

Returns an array of all logs matching a given filter object.

Parameters

id (integer; required): a request ID (example: 1).
jsonrpc (string; required): a JSON RPC spec used (example: 2.0).
method (string; required): a method used for the request.
params (array; required):
1. object: the filter options:
  - fromBlock (string; quantity|tag; optional; default: "latest"): either the block number or one of the following block tags:
    - latest: for the last mined block.
    - earliest: for the lowest numbered block available on the client.
    - pending: for not yet mined transactions.
  - toBlock (string; quantity|tag; optional; default: "latest"): either the block number or one of the following block tags:
    - latest: for the last mined block.
    - earliest: for the lowest numbered block available on the client.
    - pending: for not yet mined transactions.
  - address (array of strings; data, 20 bytes; optional): a contract address or a list of addresses from which logs should originate.
  - topics (array of strings; data; optional): an array of 32 bytes data topics. Topics are order-dependent. Each topic can also be an array of data with "or" options.
  - blockhash (string; data, 32 bytes; optional; future): with the addition of EIP-234, blockHash will be a new filter option which restricts the logs returned to the single block with the 32-byte hash blockHash. Using blockHash is equivalent to fromBlock = toBlock = the block number with hash blockHash. If blockHash is present in the filter criteria, then neither fromBlock nor toBlock are allowed.

Returns

removed (string; tag): true when the log was removed, due to a chain reorganization; false if it's a valid log.
logIndex (string; quantity): the log index position in the block; null when it's a pending log.
transactionIndex (string; quantity): the transactions index position log was created from; null when it's a pending log.
transactionHash (string; data, 32 bytes): a hash of the transactions this log was created from; null when it's a pending log.
blockHash (string; data, 32 bytes): a hash of the block containing the log; null when it's pending; null when it's a pending log.
blockNumber (string; quantity): the number of the block containing the log; null when it's pending; null when it's a pending log.
address (string; data, 20 bytes): an address from which this log originated.
data (string; data): contains one or more 32 bytes non-indexed arguments of the log.
topics (array of strings; data): an array of 0 to 4 32 bytes data of indexed log arguments. (In solidity: The first topic is the hash of the signature of the event (e.g. Deposit(address,bytes32,uint256)), except you declared the event with the anonymous specifier.)

`debug_traceBlockByHash`

Traces the execution of all transactions within a block specified by hash.

Parameters

id (integer; required): a request ID (example: 1).
jsonrpc (string; required): a JSON RPC spec used (example: 2.0).
method (string; required): a method used for the request.
params (array; required):
- <blockHash> (string; required): the hash of the block you want to trace.
- tracer (string; optional): the tracer to use for the operation. Tracers can customize the output, for example, by including only certain types of operations. Common tracers are the following:
  - callTracer: generates a detailed trace of all calls, including internal contract calls. callTracer has the following parameters:
    - onlyTopCall (boolean): if true, only the top-level call is traced.
    - tracerConfig (object): additional options to customize the output, such as including or excluding specific call types.
  - prestateTracer: traces the state of accounts before the execution of transactions.
  - noopTracer: a no-operation tracer that returns minimal information.
  - fourByteTracer: identifies the function signature of calls by analyzing the first four bytes of the calldata.
  - memoryTracer: traces memory changes during the execution of transactions. memoryTracer has the following parameters:
    - disableMemory (boolean): if true, memory output is omitted.
  - opTracer: traces all the EVM opcodes executed during a transaction. opTracer has the following parameters:
    - includeMemory (boolean): if true, includes memory output.
    - includeStack (boolean): if true, includes stack output.
    - includeStorage (boolean): if true, includes storage output.
  - gasTracer: traces the gas usage of the transaction and breaks it down by operation.
- timeout (optional, string): sets a timeout for the tracing operation, expressed in milliseconds (e.g., "5s" for 5 seconds). If the operation exceeds this time, it will be terminated.
- tracingOptions (optional, object): an object to specify additional options for the trace, such as:
  - disableMemory (boolean): if true, memory output is omitted.
  - disableStack (boolean): if true, stack output is omitted.
  - disableStorage (boolean): if true, storage output is omitted.

You can create custom tracers by combining existing tracer parameters or defining new ones. The flexibility of tracers allows you to tailor the debugging output to your specific needs, focusing on different aspects of transaction execution.

`debug_traceBlock`

Traces the execution of all transactions within a block.

Parameters

id (integer; required): a request ID (example: 1).
jsonrpc (string; required): a JSON RPC spec used (example: 2.0).
method (string; required): a method used for the request.
params (array; required):
- <blockRlp> (string; hex; required): the RLP-encoded data of the block you want to trace.
- tracer (string; optional): the tracer to use for the operation. Tracers can customize the output, for example, by including only certain types of operations. Common tracers are the following:
  - callTracer: generates a detailed trace of all calls, including internal contract calls. callTracer has the following parameters:
    - onlyTopCall (boolean): if true, only the top-level call is traced.
    - tracerConfig (object): additional options to customize the output, such as including or excluding specific call types.
  - prestateTracer: traces the state of accounts before the execution of transactions.
  - noopTracer: a no-operation tracer that returns minimal information.
  - fourByteTracer: identifies the function signature of calls by analyzing the first four bytes of the calldata.
  - memoryTracer: traces memory changes during the execution of transactions. memoryTracer has the following parameters:
    - disableMemory (boolean): if true, memory output is omitted.
  - opTracer: traces all the EVM opcodes executed during a transaction. opTracer has the following parameters:
    - includeMemory (boolean): if true, includes memory output.
    - includeStack (boolean): if true, includes stack output.
    - includeStorage (boolean): if true, includes storage output.
  - gasTracer: traces the gas usage of the transaction and breaks it down by operation.
- timeout (optional, string): sets a timeout for the tracing operation, expressed in milliseconds (e.g., "5s" for 5 seconds). If the operation exceeds this time, it will be terminated.
- tracingOptions (optional, object): an object to specify additional options for the trace, such as:
  - disableMemory (boolean): if true, memory output is omitted.
  - disableStack (boolean): if true, stack output is omitted.
  - disableStorage (boolean): if true, storage output is omitted.
