Ethers version 0.0.1 of Ethers is now published on hex.pm/packages/ethers.

This initial beta version is now shipped with the following functionalities.

• Contract function generation during compile time from ABIs.
• Ability to deploy a contract with its byte-code and constructor.
• Common contract interfaces like ERC20, ERC721, ERC777 and ERC1155. (built-ins)
• ENS and other name services resolve functionality and contracts.
• Implicit type conversion and common type utility functions.

Feel free to give it a try and file your issues in github or your suggestions here.

Ethers 0.2.0 is out. This version adds new features which helps users to sign transactions locally, with JSON RPC endpoints or even bring their own signer implementation (e.g. using AWS KMS or proprietary HSM modules).

Please feel free to try it out and share your feedback.

Thanks!

By default on EVM chains when you issue a getLogs call you get logs from the last block only. You need to specify fromBlock and toBlock values. (Example below)

{:ok, current_block} = Ethers.current_block_number()
Ethers.get_logs!(
  filter, 
  fromBlock: current_block_number - 128, 
  toBlock: current_block_number
)

I can see there is a gap in the docs regarding these parameters. Will create an issue to track and fix this.

Thank you for introducing W3WS to me. Didn’t know about that!

Elixir Ethers 0.6.x Release

I’m thrilled to announce that Ethers 0.6 has been released.

This release contains long-awaited features such as raw Transaction decoding, native CCIP read support, improved ENS (Ethereum Name Service) support, and more.

Under the hood, it includes a refactored extensible Transaction module, which will make supporting more transaction types (e.g. EIP-4844) easier.

Version 0.6 has a few breaking changes, but for most typical use cases, it should not cause any major issues.

0.6.0 Changelog

Breaking Changes

• Removed Ethers.Transaction struct and replaced with separate EIP-1559 and Legacy transaction structs for improved type safety
• Deprecated Ethers.Transaction.from_map/1 - use Ethers.Transaction.from_rpc_map/1 instead for RPC response parsing
• Deprecated Ethers.Utils.maybe_add_gas_limit/2 - gas limits should now be set explicitly
• Changed input format requirements: All inputs to Ethers functions must use native types (e.g., integers) instead of hex strings encoded values
• Removed auto-gas estimation from send_transaction calls
• tx_type option in transaction overrides has been replaced with type, now requiring explicit struct modules (e.g. Ethers.Transaction.Eip1559, Ethers.Transaction.Legacy)
• Moved Ethers.Transaction.calculate_y_parity_or_v/1 to Ethers.Transaction.Signed module
• Deprecate Ethers.send/2 in favor of Ethers.send_transaction/2 for clarity and prevent collision with Kernel.send/2.

New features

• Added EIP-3668 CCIP-Read support via Ethers.CcipRead module for off-chain data resolution
• Extended NameService to handle off-chain and cross-chain name resolution using CCIP-Read protocol
• Introduced Ethers.Transaction.Protocol behaviour for improved transaction handling
• Added dedicated EIP-1559 and Legacy transaction struct types with validation
• New address utilities: Ethers.Utils.decode_address/1 and Ethers.Utils.encode_address/1
• Added Transaction.decode/1 to decode raw transactions

Enhancements

• Improved error handling and reporting in Ethers.deploy/2
• Enhanced NameService with ENSIP-10 wildcard resolution support
• Use checksum addresses when decoding transactions
• Add bang versions of Ethers top module functions which were missing
