eth_estimateGas​

Makes a call or transaction, which won't be added to the blockchain, and returns the used gas, which can be used for estimating the used gas.

Parameters​

1. Object - Same as eth_call parameters, except that all properties are optional.

   • from: Address - (optional) 20 Bytes - The address the transaction is sent from.

   • to: Address - (optional when creating new contract) 20 Bytes - The address the transaction is directed to.

   • gas: Quantity - (optional) Integer of the gas provided for the transaction execution. eth_call consumes zero gas, but this parameter may be needed by some executions.

   • gasPrice: Quantity - (optional) Integer of the gas price used for each paid gas.

   • value: Quantity - (optional) Integer of the value sent with this transaction.

   • data: Data - (optional) 4 byte hash of the method signature followed by encoded parameters. For details,` see Ethereum Contract ABI.

2. Quantity or Tag - (optional) Integer block number, or the string 'latest', 'earliest' or 'pending', see the default block parameter.

eth_getLogs​

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

Parameters​

1. Object - The filter options:

   • fromBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: "latest") Integer block number, or "latest" for the last mined block or "pending", "earliest" for not yet mined transactions.

   • toBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: "latest") Integer block number, or "latest" for the last mined block or "pending", "earliest" for not yet mined transactions.

   • address: DATA|Array, 20 Bytes - (optional) Contract address or a list of addresses from which logs should originate.

   • topics: Array of DATA, - (optional) Array of 32 Bytes DATA topics. Topics are order-dependent. Each topic can also be an array of DATA with “or” options.

   • blockhash: 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 in the filter criteria, then neither fromBlock nor toBlock are allowed.

params: [{
  "topics": ["0x000000000000000000000000a94f5374fce5edbc8e2a8697c15331677e6ebf0b"]
}]

Returns​

Array - Array of log objects, or an empty array if nothing has changed since last poll.

• For filters created with eth_newBlockFilter the return are block hashes (DATA, 32 Bytes), e.g. ["0x3454645634534..."].

• For filters created with eth_newPendingTransactionFilter the return are transaction hashes (DATA, 32 Bytes), e.g. ["0x6345343454645..."].

• For filters created with eth_newFilter logs are objects with following params:

  • removed: TAG - true when the log was removed, due to a chain reorganization. false if its a valid log.

  • logIndex: QUANTITY - integer of the log index position in the block. null when its pending log.

  • transactionIndex: QUANTITY - integer of the transactions index position log was created from. null when its pending log.

  • transactionHash: DATA, 32 Bytes - hash of the transactions this log was created from. null when its pending log.

  • blockHash: DATA, 32 Bytes - hash of the block where this log was in. null when its pending. null when its pending log.

  • blockNumber: QUANTITY - the block number where this log was in. null when its pending. null when its pending log.

  • address: DATA, 20 Bytes - address from which this log originated.

  • data: DATA - contains one or more 32 Bytes non-indexed arguments of the log.

  • topics: Array of DATA - 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.)
