Signers
|
||
|
|
=======
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Signer
|
||
|
|
------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **connect**( provider ) => *[Signer](/v5/api/signer/#Signer)*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sub-classes **must** implement this, however they may simply throw an error if changing providers is not supported.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **getAddress**( ) => *Promise< string< [Address](/v5/api/utils/address/#address) > >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns a Promise that resolves to the account address.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a Promise so that a **Signer** can be designed around an asynchronous source, such as hardware wallets.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sub-classes **must** implement this.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *Signer* . **isSigner**( object ) => *boolean*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns true if an only if *object* is a **Signer**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Blockchain Methods
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **getBalance**( [ blockTag = "latest" ] ) => *Promise< [BigNumber](/v5/api/utils/bignumber/) >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns the balance of this wallet at *blockTag*.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **getChainId**( ) => *Promise< number >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns ths chain ID this wallet is connected to.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **getGasPrice**( ) => *Promise< [BigNumber](/v5/api/utils/bignumber/) >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns the current gas price.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **getTransactionCount**( [ blockTag = "latest" ] ) => *Promise< number >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns the number of transactions this account has ever sent. This is the value required to be included in transactions as the `nonce`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **call**( transactionRequest ) => *Promise< string< [DataHexString](/v5/api/utils/bytes/#DataHexString) > >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns the result of calling using the *transactionRequest*, with this account address being used as the `from` field.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **estimateGas**( transactionRequest ) => *Promise< [BigNumber](/v5/api/utils/bignumber/) >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns the result of estimating the cost to send the *transactionRequest*, with this account address being used as the `from` field.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **resolveName**( ensName ) => *Promise< string< [Address](/v5/api/utils/address/#address) > >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns the address associated with the *ensName*.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Signing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **signMessage**( message ) => *Promise< string< [RawSignature](/v5/api/utils/bytes/#signature-raw) > >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This returns a Promise which resolves to the [Raw Signature](/v5/api/utils/bytes/#signature-raw) of *message*.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sub-classes **must** implement this, however they may throw if signing a message is not supported, such as in a Contract-based Wallet or Meta-Transaction-based Wallet.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Note
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If *message* is a string, it is **treated as a string** and converted to its representation in UTF8 bytes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**If and only if** a message is a [Bytes](/v5/api/utils/bytes/#Bytes) will it be treated as binary data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, the string `"0x1234"` is 6 characters long (and in this case 6 bytes long). This is **not** equivalent to the array `[ 0x12, 0x34 ]`, which is 2 bytes long.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A common case is to sign a hash. In this case, if the hash is a string, it **must** be converted to an array first, using the [arrayify](/v5/api/utils/bytes/#utils-arrayify) utility function.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **signTransaction**( transactionRequest ) => *Promise< string< [DataHexString](/v5/api/utils/bytes/#DataHexString) > >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns a Promise which resolves to the signed transaction of the *transactionRequest*. This method does not populate any missing fields.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sub-classes **must** implement this, however they may throw if signing a transaction is not supported, which is common for security reasons in many clients.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **sendTransaction**( transactionRequest ) => *Promise< [TransactionResponse](/v5/api/providers/types/#providers-TransactionResponse) >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This method populates the transactionRequest with missing fields, using [populateTransaction](/v5/api/signer/#Signer-populateTransaction) and returns a Promise which resolves to the transaction.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sub-classes **must** implement this, however they may throw if sending a transaction is not supported, such as the [VoidSigner](/v5/api/signer/#VoidSigner) or if the Wallet is offline and not connected to a [Provider](/v5/api/providers/provider/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Sub-Classes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **checkTransaction**( transactionRequest ) => *[TransactionRequest](/v5/api/providers/types/#providers-TransactionRequest)*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is generally not required to be overridden, but may needed to provide custom behaviour in sub-classes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This should return a **copy** of the *transactionRequest*, with any properties needed by `call`, `estimateGas` and `populateTransaction` (which is used by sendTransaction). It should also throw an error if any unknown key is specified.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The default implementation checks only valid [TransactionRequest](/v5/api/providers/types/#providers-TransactionRequest) properties exist and adds `from` to the transaction if it does not exist.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If there is a `from` field it **must** be verified to be equal to the Signer's address.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *signer* . **populateTransaction**( transactionRequest ) => *Promise< [TransactionRequest](/v5/api/providers/types/#providers-TransactionRequest) >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is generally not required to be overridden, but may needed to provide custom behaviour in sub-classes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This should return a **copy** of *transactionRequest*, follow the same procedure as `checkTransaction` and fill in any properties required for sending a transaction. The result should have all promises resolved; if needed the [resolveProperties](/v5/api/utils/properties/#utils-resolveproperties) utility function can be used for this.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The default implementation calls `checkTransaction` and resolves to if it is an ENS name, adds `gasPrice`, `nonce`, `gasLimit` and `chainId` based on the related operations on Signer.
|
||

|

|
||

|
Wallet
|
||
|
|
------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### **new ***ethers* . **Wallet**( privateKey [ , provider ] )
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Create a new Wallet instance for *privateKey* and optionally connected to the *provider*.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *ethers* . *Wallet* . **createRandom**( [ options = {} ] ) => *[Wallet](/v5/api/signer/#Wallet)*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns a new Wallet with a random private key, generated from cryptographically secure entropy sources. If the current environment does not have a secure entropy source, an error is thrown.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Wallets created using this method will have a mnemonic.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *ethers* . *Wallet* . **fromEncryptedJson**( json , password [ , progress ] ) => *Promise< [Wallet](/v5/api/signer/#Wallet) >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Create an instance from an encrypted JSON wallet.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If *progress* is provided it will be called during decryption with a value between 0 and 1 indicating the progress towards completion.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *ethers* . *Wallet* . **fromEncryptedJsonSync**( json , password ) => *[Wallet](/v5/api/signer/#Wallet)*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Create an instance from an encrypted JSON wallet.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This operation will operate synchronously which will lock up the user interface, possibly for a non-trivial duration. Most applications should use the asynchronous `fromEncryptedJson` instead.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *ethers* . *Wallet* . **fromMnemonic**( mnemonic [ , path , [ wordlist ] ] ) => *[Wallet](/v5/api/signer/#Wallet)*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Create an instance from a mnemonic phrase.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If path is not specified, the Ethereum default path is used (i.e. `m/44'/60'/0'/0/0`).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If wordlist is not specified, the English Wordlist is used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Properties
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *wallet* . **address** => *string< [Address](/v5/api/utils/address/#address) >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The address for the account this Wallet represents.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *wallet* . **provider** => *[Provider](/v5/api/providers/provider/)*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The provider this wallet is connected to, which will ge used for any [Blockchain Methods](/v5/api/signer/#Signer--blockchain-methods) methods. This can be null.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Note
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A **Wallet** instance is immuatable, so if you wish to change the Provider, you may use the [connect](/v5/api/signer/#Signer-connect) method to create a new instance connected to the desired provider.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *wallet* . **publicKey** => *string< [DataHexString](/v5/api/utils/bytes/#DataHexString)< 65 > >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The uncompressed public key for this Wallet represents.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Methods

||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *wallet* . **encrypt**( password , [ options = {} , [ progress ] ] ) => *Promise< string >*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Encrypt the wallet using *password* returning a Promise which resolves to a JSON wallet.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If *progress* is provided it will be called during decryption with a value between 0 and 1 indicating the progress towards completion.

|
#### **new ***ethers* . **VoidSigner**( address [ , provider ] ) => *[VoidSigner](/v5/api/signer/#VoidSigner)*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Create a new instance of a **VoidSigner** for *address*.
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
#### *voidSigner* . **address** => *string< [Address](/v5/api/utils/address/#address) >*
