Helios provides a variety of RPC methods for interacting with the Ethereum network. These methods are exposed via the Client
struct. The RPC methods follow the Ethereum JSON RPC Spec. See examples of running remote procedure calls with Helios.
RPC Method | Client Function | Description | Example |

eth_getBalance |
get_balance |
Returns the balance of the account given an address. | client.get_balance(&self, address: &str, block: BlockTag) |
eth_getTransactionCount |
get_nonce |
Returns the number of transactions sent from the given address. | client.get_nonce(&self, address: &str, block: BlockTag) |
eth_getCode |
get_code |
Returns the code at a given address. | client.get_code(&self, address: &str, block: BlockTag) |
eth_call |
call |
Executes a new message call immediately without creating a transaction on the blockchain. | client.call(&self, opts: CallOpts, block: BlockTag) |
eth_estimateGas |
estimate_gas |
Generates and returns an estimate of how much gas is necessary to allow the transaction to complete. | client.estimate_gas(&self, opts: CallOpts) |
eth_getChainId |
chain_id |
Returns the chain ID of the current network. | client.chain_id(&self) |

gas_price |
Returns the current price per gas in wei. | client.gas_price(&self) |
eth_maxPriorityFeePerGas |
max_priority_fee_per_gas |
Returns the current max priority fee per gas in wei. | client.max_priority_fee_per_gas(&self) |
eth_blockNumber |
block_number |
Returns the number of the most recent block. | client.block_number(&self) |

eth_getLogs |
get_logs |
Returns an array of logs matching the filter. | client.get_logs(&self, filter: Filter) |
eth_getStorageAt |
get_storage_at |
Returns the value from a storage position at a given address. | client.get_storage_at(&self, address: &str, slot: H256, block: BlockTag) |
eth_getBlockTransactionCountByHash |
get_block_transaction_count_by_hash |
