No support for tuple type

[NoahMarconi]

Issue Type

• Bug (https://github.com/ethjs/ethjs-abi/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md#bug-reports)

Description

tuple type is not checked for: https://github.com/ethjs/ethjs-abi/blob/master/src/utils/index.js#L298

Steps to reproduce

https://ethfiddle.com/VxkWJs5sQz

Setter set does not accept tuple type.

[SilentCicero]

We aren't accepting those, we will be moving over to ethers.js encoding... eventually... or when someone makes a pr! Ethers accepts tuples

What's involved in moving the encoding to ethers.js? Maybe I can help; I was using ethers.js to encode my data.

EthFiddle is using your lib which is how I ran into the problem.

I see! It's quite simple, use my method interface but run everything through ethers encode and decodeParams methods

So I'm clear, the fix is to update the main index.js methods and defer to ethers.js: https://github.com/ethjs/ethjs-abi/blob/master/src/index.js

Specifically:

• etherjs-abi.encodeParams -> ethers.AbiCoder.encode
• etherjs-abi.decodeParams -> ethers.AbiCoder.decode

and that's it?

[SilentCicero]

Well, the results of ethers is slightly different from the current ethjs abi, so there is some conversion of the output data to an object with both array like and contract method output property names (if available).

Hello,

any progress on this issue? Tuples are supported by the EVM for some months already and more and more solidity code take advantage of it.

I'd prefer not to drop ethjs library in my project as it's very lightweight and has a clean API I love to work with :)

Thanks for your feedback

[SilentCicero]

This needs to be swapped out for ethers.js abo module -- it's been on the agenda forever, it's been hard for me to maintain this and keep it up to date -- if you want, I can explain how to patch it it's pretty straight forward! Richard with Ethers.js Abi keeps his all up to date -- I'll see if I can hack something today

Thanks @SilentCicero for your quick response. Indeed, I'd be interested to have an example for a quick patch ! Many thanks in advance :)

Is there a solution for this here? I'm running into the same issue
