Optimism

Optimism


Optimism API is available on Web3 API platform (opens in a new tab).

Optimism is a fast, stable, and scalable L2 blockchain built by Ethereum developers, for Ethereum developers. Built as a minimal extension to existing Ethereum software, Optimism’s EVM-equivalent architecture scales your Ethereum apps without surprises. If it works on Ethereum, it works on Optimism at a fraction of the cost.

In order for your Web3 application to interact with Optimism — either by reading blockchain data or sending transactions to the network — it must connect to an Optimism node. Developers interact with the blockchain using the methods provided by the API.

The API interaction follows the JSON-RPC (opens in a new tab) which is a stateless, light-weight remote procedure call (RPC) protocol. It defines several data structures and the rules around their processing. It is transport agnostic in that the concepts can be used within the same process, over sockets, over HTTP, or in other message-passing environments. It uses JSON (RFC 4627) as data format.

  • value (string; quantity; optional): the value sent with this transaction, in wei.
  • data (string; data; optional): the hash of the method signature and encoded parameters.
  1. <string> (quantity|tag; optional): either a HEX value of a block number or one of the following block tags:
  • earliest: the lowest numbered block available on the client.
  • finalized: the most recent crypto-economically secure block; cannot be re-orged outside of manual intervention driven by community coordination.
  • safe: the most recent block that is safe from re-orgs under honest majority and certain synchronicity assumptions.
  • latest: the most recent block in the canonical chain observed by the client; this block can be re-orged out of the canonical chain even under healthy/normal conditions.
  • pending: a sample next block built by the client on top of the latest and containing the set of transactions usually taken from local mempool. In other words, it is the block that has not been mined yet.

Returns


  • <string> (quantity): the amount of gas used.

eth_getUncleByBlockNumberAndIndex

Returns information about an uncle of a block by number and uncle index position.

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. <string> (quantity|tag): either the hex value of a block number or one of the following block tags:
  • earliest: the lowest numbered block available on the client.
  • finalized: the most recent crypto-economically secure block; cannot be re-orged outside of manual intervention driven by community coordination.
  • safe: the most recent block that is safe from re-orgs under honest majority and certain synchronicity assumptions.
  • latest: the most recent block in the canonical chain observed by the client; this block can be re-orged out of the canonical chain even under healthy/normal conditions.
  • pending: a sample next block built by the client on top of the latest and containing the set of transactions usually taken from local mempool. In other words, it is the block that has not been mined yet.
  1. <string> (quantity): the uncle's index position.

Returns


  • <object>: a block object, or null when no block was found:

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 a hex of 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.)
