Complete Ethereum and Celo wallet implementation and utilities in Rust

Documentation

Extensive documentation and examples are available here.

Alternatively, you may clone the repository and run cd ethers/ && cargo doc --open

Add ethers-rs to your repository

[dependencies]

ethers = { git = "https://github.com/gakonst/ethers-rs" }

Running the tests

Tests require the following installed:

1. solc. We also recommend using solc-select for more flexibility.
2. ganache-cli

In addition, it is recommended that you set the ETHERSCAN_API_KEY environment variable for the abigen via Etherscan tests. You can get one here.

Celo Support

Celo support is turned on via the feature-flag celo:

[dependencies]

ethers = { git = "https://github.com/gakonst/ethers-rs", features = ["celo"] }

Celo's transactions differ from Ethereum transactions by including 3 new fields:

• fee_currency: The currency fees are paid in (None for CELO, otherwise it's an Address)
• gateway_fee_recipient: The address of the fee recipient (None for no gateway fee paid)
• gateway_fee: Gateway fee amount (None for no gateway fee paid)

The feature flag enables these additional fields in the transaction request builders and in the transactions which are fetched over JSON-RPC.

Features

• Ethereum JSON-RPC Client
• Interacting and deploying smart contracts
• Type safe smart contract bindings code generation
• Querying past events
• Event monitoring as Streams
• ENS as a first class citizen
• Celo support
• Websockets / eth_subscribe
• Hardware Wallet Support
• Parity APIs (tracing, parity_blockWithReceipts)
• Geth TxPool API
• WASM Bindings
• FFI Bindings
• CLI for common operations

Related Projects

This library would not have been possibly without the great work done in:

• ethers.js
• rust-web3
• ethcontract-rs
• guac_rs

A lot of the code was inspired and adapted from them, to a unified and opinionated interface, built with async/await and std futures from the ground up.
