JSON-RPC API

JSON-RPC API

Boba Network shares the same JSON-RPC API (opens new window)as Ethereum. Some custom methods have been introduced to simplify certain Optimistic Ethereum specific interactions.

Custom JSON-RPC Methods

NOTICE

Custom JSON-RPC methods are currently highly subject to change. We strongly discourage relying on these JSON-RPC methods.

eth_getBlockRange

DEPRECATION NOTICE

We will likely remove this method in a future release in favor of simply using batched RPC requests. If your application relies on this method, please file an issue and we will provide a migration path. Otherwise, please use eth_getBlockByNumber instead.

Like eth_getBlockByNumber but accepts a range of block numbers instead of just a single block.

Parameters

  1. QUANTITY|TAG - integer of the starting block number for the range, or the string "earliest", "latest" or "pending", as in the default block parameter (opens new window).
  2. QUANTITY|TAG - integer of the ending block number for the range, or the string "earliest", "latest" or "pending", as in the default block parameter (opens new window).
  3. BOOLEAN - If true it returns the full transaction objects, if false only the hashes of the transactions.

Returns

An array of block objects. See eth_getBlockByHash (opens new window)for the structure of a block object.

Example

// Request
curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBlockRange","params":["0x1", "0x2", false],"id":1}' <node url>

// Result

rollup_gasPrices

Returns the L1 and L2 gas prices that are being used by the Sequencer to calculate fees.

Parameters

None

Returns

Object

  • l1GasPrice: QUANTITY - L1 gas price in wei that the Sequencer will use to estimate the L1 portion of fees (calldata costs).
  • l2GasPrice: QUANTITY - L2 gas price in wei that the Sequencer will use to estimate the L2 portion of fees (execution costs).

Example

// Request
curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"rollup_gasPrices","params":[],"id":1}' <node url>

// Result
{
  "jsonrpc":"2.0",

}

Unsupported JSON-RPC methods

eth_getAccounts

This method is used to retrieve a list of addresses owned by a user. Boba Network nodes do not expose internal wallets for security reasons and therefore block the eth_getAccounts method by default. You should use external wallet software as an alternative.

eth_sendTransaction

Boba Network nodes also block the eth_sendTransaction method for the same reasons as eth_getAccounts. You should use external wallet software as an alternative. Please note that this is not the same as the eth_sendRawTransaction method, which accepts a signed transaction as an input. eth_sendRawTransaction is supported by Boba Network.
