 Fixes   Miscellaneous   Changelog   Known Issues   Future Plans 

As we close out the month of August where we focused most of our energy on removing tech debt from the Ganache codebase, we have a release with quite a few fixes, documentation updates, chores, and CI improvements. This, combined with the week that the whole team took off to rest, means that we should be ready for some serious momentum in the coming months! We have some great new features in the works and are excited to share them with you in the coming releases!

For this release, we'd like to thank our issue reporters (@VladLupashevskyi, @cds-amal) and PR openers (@jaketimothy, @l2ig). We really appreciate your contributions!

If you have some time, we encourage you to browse our issues to find anything you'd like implemented/fixed sooner. Give them a +1 and we'll use this community feedback to help prioritize what we work on! Or better yet, open a new issue or open a PR to fix an existing issue if you really want to get involved.

We've changed 55 files across 12 merged pull requests, tallying 935 additions and 462 deletions, since our last release.

Fixes

fix: assume unknown tx type is TransactionType.Legacy (#3523)

This change, made by the great @jaketimothy, fixes a bug with Ganache where it would throw if an unknown transaction type is sent by a user. Now, Ganache will allow any transaction type and turn it into a Legacy transaction if the type is unknown. This fixes an issue (#3458) that many Arbitrum Nitro users have been facing. Thanks again, @jaketimothy!

fix: after provider.disconnect() is called, Ganache should stop serving requests (#3433)

Previously, when provider.disconnect() was called, a lot of the internals of Ganache would be stopped, but just enough was kept alive to serve requests. This could stop consumers from shutting down cleanly.

Now all pending requests, and any new requests will be rejected with a helpful error.

For example, before this change, the following would successfully return the block number:

const provider = Ganache.provider();
await provider.disconnect();
const blockNumber = await provider.send("eth_blockNumber");

But now:

Error: Cannot process request, Ganache is disconnected.

Caveat: any request that has started to process, but not yet complete, may fail with an unexpected error. See #3499 for details.

back to fixes

fix: evm_setTime doesn't work correctly with miner.timestampIncrement (#3506)

When using miner.timestampIncrement, calling evm_setTime can result in unexpected values, and potentially with an error being thrown.

This is because the timeAdjustment is applied to the previous blocktime, so this offset is applied for every block that is mined.

With the following example, the initial block is mined correctly, as is the first block after setting the time, but subsequent blocks will have a descending block time, until the value becomes negative.

const p = await getProvider({
  miner: { timestampIncrement: 1 },
  chain: { time: 10000 }
});

const mineAndShowBlock = async () => {
  await p.send("evm_mine");
  const { number, timestamp } = await p.send("eth_getBlockByNumber", [
    "latest"
  ]);

  console.log({ number, timestamp: Quantity.toNumber(timestamp) });
};
await mineAndShowBlock();

await p.send("evm_setTime", [5000]);

while (true) {
  await mineAndShowBlock();
}
{ number: '0x1', timestamp: 11 }
{ number: '0x2', timestamp: 6 }
{ number: '0x3', timestamp: 1 }

Error: Cannot wrap a negative value as a json-rpc type

fix: return exactly 32 bytes from eth_getStorageAt (#3527)

eth_getStorageAt was returning compact representations of data, e.g., "0x5" instead of "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000005". We now always return the padded whole 32 byte word.

Miscellaneous

test: replace assert.deepEqual with assert.deepStrictEqual (#3533)

This PR improves the consistency of our tests but replacing all assert.deepEqual calss with assert.deepStrictEqual. Thanks, @l2ig!

chore: add support for grayGlacier; update @ethereumjs/* packages (#3534, #3629)

This change adds support for the grayGlacier hardfork. This change also updates @ethereumjs/* packages to their latest versions, which is what allows us to add the grayGlacier hardfork (ganache --hardfork grayGlacier). This hardfork does not change ganache behavior, other than make the hardfork name available.

back to miscellaneous

docs: add trufflesuite.com to README (#3564)

We just thought it'd be useful to have a link to our website on our README 🔗

ci: add config for semantic-prs app (#3543)

This change adds a semantic.yml file to configure how the Semantic-PRs app interacts with Ganache. This app will now require that all pull requests have a title with a conventional commit message.

ci: remove docker from automated release workflow (#3547, #3619)

Previously our automated release process would require successfully publishing to Docker to complete. Since publishing to Docker can sometimes be unreliable, this would occasionally cause the release to fail, meaning we'd have to manually fix our release process' commit history and publish to Docker.

This change moves the step to publish to Docker to its own action, which is run only if the actual release is fully successful. Because this is now a separate job in the release process, we can rerun that individual job if it fails.

Fixes #3546.

test: skip test pending chainId added to transaction object (#3617)

Pending resolution of #3616, forking > blocks > should get a block from the original chain test is now skipped.

back to miscellaneous

chore: add sepolia as a network option (#3580)

This change adds support for the sepolia testnet. You can now use Ganache's zero-config mainnet forking to fork the sepolia testnet. To do this, simply run ganache --fork sepolia in your console.
