JSONRPC Requests

Geth in EthereumKit communicates with Ethereum via JSONRPC. It connects to Ropsten for test network and Mainnet for main network. (Will support localhost soon⚠️)

GetGasPrice

Returns the current price per gas in wei.

Parameters

none

Returns

QUANTITY - integer of the current gas price in wei.

Example
let geth = Geth(network: .test)
geth.getGasPrice() { result in 
    // do something...
}

GetBalance

Return a balance of specified address based on the BlockParameter.

Parameters
  1. address - the Address you want to get a balance of.
  2. blockParameter: based on what block parameter you want to see a balance. default is latest. see the default block parameter.
Returns

Balance of specified address.

Example
let geth = Geth(network: .test)
geth.getAccount(address: "0x91c79f31De5208fadCbF83f0a7B0A9b6d8aBA90F") { result in
    // do something...
}

GetAccount

Returns a balance of specified address and map it to Account model.

Parameters
  1. address - the Address you want to get a balance of.
  2. blockParameter: based on what block parameter you want to see a balance. default is latest. see the default block parameter.
Returns

Account of specified address.

Example
let geth = Geth(network: .test)
geth.getAccount(address: "0x91c79f31De5208fadCbF83f0a7B0A9b6d8aBA90F") { result in
    // do something...
}

GetTransactionCount

Returns a number of transactions that a specified address has.

Parameters
  1. address - the Address you want to get a balance of.
  2. blockParameter: based on what block parameter you want to see a balance. default is latest. see the default block parameter.
Returns

A number of transactions the specified address has.

Example
let geth = Geth(network: .test)
geth.getTransactionCount(address: "0x91c79f31De5208fadCbF83f0a7B0A9b6d8aBA90F") { result in
    // do something...
}

SendRawTransaction

Creates new message call transaction or a contract creation for signed transactions.

Parameters
  1. data - The signed transaction data.
Returns

DATA, 32 Bytes - the transaction hash, or the zero hash if the transaction is not yet available. Use GetTransactionReceipt to get the contract address, after the transaction was mined, when you created a contract.

Call

Executes a new message call immediately without creating a transaction on the block chain.

Parameters
  1. from - (Optional) the Address the transaction is sent from.
  2. to - the address the transaction is directed to.
  3. gas - (Optional) integer of the gas provided for the transaction execution.
  4. gasPrice - (Optional) integer of the gasPrice used for each paid gas.
  5. value - (Optional) integer of the value send with this transaction.
  6. data - (Optional) hash of the method signature and encoded parameters.
  7. blockParameter - integer block number, or the specific string. default is latest. see the default block parameter.
Returns

data - the return value of executed contract.

Example
let geth = Geth(network: .test)
geth.call(to: "0xf204a4ef082f5c04bb89f7d5e6568b796096735a", data: "0x70a0823100000000000000000000000091c79f31De5208fadCbF83f0a7B0A9b6d8aBA90F", blockParameter: .latest) { result in
    // do something...
}

GetEstimatGas

Generates and returns an estimate of how much gas is necessary to allow the transaction to complete. The transaction will not be added to the blockchain. Note that the estimate may be significantly more than the amount of gas actually used by the transaction, for a variety of reasons including EVM mechanics and node performance.

Parameters
  1. from - (Optional) the Address the transaction is sent from.
  2. to - the address the transaction is directed to.
  3. gas - (Optional) integer of the gas provided for the transaction execution.
  4. gasPrice - (Optional) integer of the gasPrice used for each paid gas.
  5. value - (Optional) integer of the value send with this transaction.
  6. data - (Optional) hash of the method signature and encoded parameters.
Returns

QUANTITY - the amount of gas used.

Example
let geth = Geth(network: .test)
geth.getEstimateGas(to: address) { result in
    // Do something
}

GetBlockNumber

Returns the number of most recent block.

Parameters

none

Returns

QUANTITY - integer of the current block number the client is on.

Example
let geth = Geth(configuration: configuration)
geth.getBlockNumber { result in
// Do something
}
