Thank you to our contributors @legobeat, @MicaiahReid, @brendene, and @jeffsmale90 for your contributions to this release!

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, open a PR to fix an existing issue if you really want to get involved.

We've changed 18 files across 8 merged pull requests, tallying 184 additions and 140 deletions, since our last release.


Fixes


fix: add "EADDRINUSE" as code to server Error (#4045)

This PR sets the code property related to the error "listen EADDRINUSE: address already in use { address }" to "EADDRINUSE", making detecting this kind of "address in use" error programmatically much easier and straightforward. This property existed in Ganache v6 and earlier and was removed in v7.0.0 in error.

Previously:

{
  "message": "listen EADDRINUSE: address already in use 127.0.0.1:5001"
}

Now:

{
  "code": "EADDRINUSE",
  "message": "listen EADDRINUSE: address already in use 127.0.0.1:5001"
}

Fixes #4020

fix: store transactions with the correct effectiveGasPrice (#4112)

Previously we were returning the wrong gasPrice when a transaction was fetched via eth_getTransactionByHash. This was happening because when we saved the transaction to the chain, we didn't update the transaction's effectiveGasPrice field based off of the baseFeePerGas of the block that the transaction was mined onto in some cases.

However, the effectiveGasPrice returned on a receipt was correct because when the receipt was fetched, we would calculate the effectiveGasPrice on the fly just to correct what we return to the user, rather than directly using what the database returned.

This change removes the on-the-fly calculation of the effectiveGasPrice on the receipt, and presets the transaction's effectiveGasPrice based off of the next block's baseFeePerGas when the transaction is added to the pool. As block's are mined, the miner updates all pending transaction's effectiveGasPrice based off of the next block's baseFeePerGas.

Fixes #4094.

fix: evm_revert fails in some cases (#4136)

Resolves an issue where evm_revert would fail with error .for is not iterable. This happened when a user would attempt to revert a change that deletes a key that exists in an upstream network.

fixes: #4093
