RPC Method `eth_getBlockReceipts` not supported

[SantiagoDevRel]

Hi team

This eth_getBlockReceipts method retrieves all transaction receipts for a given block. Transaction receipts contain information about the execution status of a transaction and can be useful for monitoring the status of transfers or contract execution on the blockchain.

Use case

The eth_getBlockReceipts allows you to retrieve the receipts for all transactions in a specific block. A practical use case can be to retrieve all of the logs emitted from the transactions in a block. The method returns an array of transaction receipts, where each contains information about the transaction and any logs generated as a result of the transaction execution, so the logs can be isolated.

You can test it here: eth_getBlockReceipts | Ethereum

Supported by:

• Erigon
• Nethermind

Not supported/Not listed:

• Ethereum JSON-RPC API.
• Geth
• Hardhat

Ethers doesn't have a method getBlockReceipts() but it allows developers to use await provider.send('eth_getBlockReceipts', [blockNumber]); which is useful.

Junaid shared with me the web3.extend test and I was able to do this as a temporary solution (i didn't know about this web3.extend so it might be useful to write a simple guide about it in the docs, I will do it)

const { Web3 } = require("web3");

const web3 = new Web3(
  "https://nd-422-757-666.p2pify.com/0a9d79d93fb2f4a4b1e04695da2b77a7"
);

async function main() {
  web3.extend({
    property: "L2Module",
    methods: [
      {
        name: "getBlockReceipts",
        call: "eth_getBlockReceipts",
      },
    ],
  });

  const receipts = await web3.L2Module.getBlockReceipts("latest"); //return all the receipts
  let logs = receipts.flatMap((receipt) => receipt.logs); //array of logs
  console.log(logs); //print logs
}

main();

Will use #6768 instead of this one and use web3 extend.
