Implement trace_call RPC method

Open AlexeyKrasnoperov opened this issue 1 month ago • 1 comments

Summary

A potential user requested the implementation of the trace_call method, as it's critical for their functionality and is not implemented in alternative implementations.

Requirements

  • [ ] Implement the trace_call RPC method
  • [ ] Cover it with all the necessary tests
  • [ ] Add documentation

Motivation

we use trace call in order to simulate routes before they are sent importantly we use it together with state overrides to simulate approvals we also use it to confirm swaps that have already happened, combined with getlogs and transactionReceipt
