[lerajk]

Issue summary

The following RPC commands are being deemed useful for Glif. We will try to include them in Forest. We can exclude the ETH endpoints.

Other information and links

• Filecoin endpoints
• Ethereum endpoints

Context: These are all the endpoints that can be accessed through the Lotus Gateway. They were not picked by Glif.

• [x] ChainGetMessage
• [x] StateMarketStorageDeal
• [x] StateMinerInfo
• [ ] EthCall
• [x] WalletBalance

The ones in bold are high priority.

Makes sense to group them by namespace instead of implementing them one by one, i.e., prioritize implementing:

1. Filecoin.Chain*
2. Filecoin.State*
3. eth_*
4. Filecoin.Wallet*

And so on...

@lemmih should we close this in favour of other, recent issues and the project sheet?
