eth_newFilter

Creates a filter object, based on filter options, to notify when the state changes (logs). To check if the state has changed, call eth_getFilterChanges. A note on specifying topic filters: Topics are order-dependent. A transaction with a log with topics [A, B] will be matched by the following topic filters:
  • [] “anything”
  • [A] “A in first position (and anything after)”
  • [null, B] “anything in first position AND B in second position (and anything after)”
  • [A, B] “A in first position AND B in second position (and anything after)”
  • [[A, B], [A, B]] “(A OR B) in first position AND (A OR B) in second position (and anything after)”
Parameters Object - The filter options:
  • fromBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: “latest”) Integer block number, or “latest” for the last proposed block, “safe” for the latest safe block, “finalized” for the latest finalized block, or “pending”, “earliest” for transactions not yet in a block.
  • toBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: “latest”) Integer block number, or “latest” for the last proposed block, “safe” for the latest safe block, “finalized” for the latest finalized block, or “pending”, “earliest” for transactions not yet in a block.
  • 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.

eth_getFilterChanges

Polling method for a filter, which returns an array of logs which occurred since last poll. Parameters

  • params: ["0x16", // 22]
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 zero 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.)

eth_getFilterLogs

Returns an array of all logs matching filter with given id. Parameters
  • QUANTITY - The filter id.
  • params: ["0x16", // 22]
Returns See eth_getFilterChanges. Example 
// Request
curl -X POST https://testnet-rpc1.autheo.com -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "eth_getFilterLogs", "params": ["0x44ff3a54d0a2c4c06c4684d596b285e7"], "id": 2}'
Result See eth_getFilterChanges.

​
eth_getLogs

Returns an array of all logs matching a given filter object. Parameters Object - The filter options:
  • fromBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: “latest”) Integer block number, or “latest” for the last proposed block, “safe” for the latest safe block, “finalized” for the latest finalized block, or “pending”, “earliest” for transactions not yet in a block.
  • toBlock: QUANTITY|TAG - (optional, default: “latest”) Integer block number, or “latest” for the last proposed block, “safe” for the latest safe block, “finalized” for the latest finalized block, or “pending”, “earliest” for transactions not yet in a block.
  • 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 the filter criteria, then neither fromBlock nor toBlock are allowed.
