Abstract Provider

This sub-module is part of the ethers project.

It is responsible for defining the common interface for a Provider, which in ethers differs quite substantially from Web3.js.

A Provider is an abstraction of non-account-based operations on a blockchain and is generally not directly involved in signing transaction or data.

For signing, see the Abstract Signer or Wallet sub-modules.

For more information, see the documentation.
