debug Namespace
The debug API provides several methods to inspect the Ethereum state, including Geth-style traces.
debug_getRawHeader
Returns an RLP-encoded header.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_getRawHeader", "params": [block]} |
debug_getRawBlock
Retrieves and returns the RLP encoded block by number, hash or tag.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_getRawBlock", "params": [block]} |
debug_getRawTransaction
Returns an EIP-2718 binary-encoded transaction.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_getRawTransaction", "params": [tx_hash]} |
debug_getRawReceipts
Returns an array of EIP-2718 binary-encoded receipts.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_getRawReceipts", "params": [block]} |
debug_getBadBlocks
Returns an array of recent bad blocks that the client has seen on the network.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_getBadBlocks", "params": []} |
debug_traceChain
Returns the structured logs created during the execution of EVM between two blocks (excluding start) as a JSON object.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_traceChain", "params": [start_block, end_block]} |
debug_traceBlock
The debug_traceBlock method will return a full stack trace of all invoked opcodes of all transaction that were included in this block.
This expects an RLP-encoded block.
Note
The parent of this block must be present, or it will fail.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_traceBlock", "params": [rlp, opts]} |
debug_traceBlockByHash
Similar to debug_traceBlock, debug_traceBlockByHash accepts a block hash and will replay the block that is already present in the database.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_traceBlockByHash", "params": [block_hash, opts]} |
debug_traceBlockByNumber
Similar to debug_traceBlockByHash, debug_traceBlockByNumber accepts a block number and will replay the block that is already present in the database.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_traceBlockByNumber", "params": [block_number, opts]} |
debug_traceTransaction
The debug_traceTransaction debugging method will attempt to run the transaction in the exact same manner as it was executed on the network. It will replay any transaction that may have been executed prior to this one before it will finally attempt to execute the transaction that corresponds to the given hash.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_traceTransaction", "params": [tx_hash, opts]} |
debug_traceCall
The debug_traceCall method lets you run an eth_call within the context of the given block execution using the final state of parent block as the base.
The first argument (just as in eth_call) is a transaction request.
The block can optionally be specified either by hash or by number as the second argument.
| Client | Method invocation |
|---|---|
| RPC | {"method": "debug_traceCall", "params": [call, block_number, opts]} |
