Methods

estimateUserOperationGas

This method is used to estimate gas for the userOp. It returns estimates for preVerificationGas, verificationGasLimit, and callGasLimit for a given UserOperation. It requires passing a semi-valid/ dummy signature in userOp (e.g. a signature of the correct length and format).

Usage
const estimateUserOperationGasResponse: EstimateUserOperationGas = await gasEstimator.estimateUserOperationGas({
  userOperation,
  supportsEthCallStateOverride,
  supportsEthCallByteCodeOverride,
  stateOverrideSet
  baseFeePerGas
});
Parameters
  • userOperation(UserOperation, required): userOperation to calculate gas estimates for.
  • stateOverrideSet(StateOverrideSet): optional state override set for estimating gas for a userOperation under different blockchain states.
  • supportsEthCallStateOverride (boolean): optional param, default set to true, set to false if eth_call does not support state overrides
  • supportsEthCallByteCodeOverride (boolean): optional param, default set to true, set to false if eth_call does not give the correct response to bytecode overrides
  • baseFeePerGas (bigint): optional param, but required for Optimism based networks
returns
  • estimateUserOperationGasResponse(Promise<EstimateUserOperationGas>): It returns an object containing the following gas limits.

    type EstimateUserOperationGas = {
      callGasLimit: bigint;
      verificationGasLimit: bigint;
      preVerificationGas: bigint;
      validAfter: number;
      validUntil: number;
    };

estimateVerificationGasLimit

This method is used to estimate the verificationGasLimit for a given userOperation.

Usage
const verificationGasLimitResponse: EstimateVerificationGasLimit =
  await gasEstimator.estimateVerificationGasLimit({
    userOperation,
    supportsEthCallStateOverride,
    supportsEthCallByteCodeOverride,
    stateOverrideSet,
  });
Parameters
  • userOperation(UserOperation, required): userOperation to calculate gas estimates for.
  • stateOverrideSet(StateOverrideSet): optional state override set for estimating gas for a userOperation under different blockchain states.
  • supportsEthCallStateOverride (boolean): optional param, default set to true, set to false if eth_call does not support state overrides
  • supportsEthCallByteCodeOverride (boolean): optional param, default set to true, set to false if eth_call does not give the correct response to bytecode overrides
returns
  • verificationGasLimitResponse(Promise<EstimateVerificationGasLimit>): It returns an object containing the verificationGasLimit, validUntil, and validAfter values

    type EstimateVerificationGasLimit = {
      verificationGasLimit: bigint;
      validAfter: number;
      validUntil: number;
    };

estimateCallGasLimit

This method is used to estimate the callGasLimit for a given userOperation.

Usage
const callGasLimitResponse = await gasEstimator.estimateCallGasLimit({
  userOperation,
  supportsEthCallStateOverride,
  supportsEthCallByteCodeOverride,
  stateOverrideSet,
});
Parameters
  • userOperation(UserOperation, required): userOperation to calculate gas estimates for.
  • stateOverrideSet(StateOverrideSet): optional state override set for estimating gas for a userOperation under different blockchain states.
  • supportsEthCallStateOverride (boolean): optional param, default set to true, set to false if eth_call does not support state overrides
  • supportsEthCallByteCodeOverride (boolean): optional param, default set to true, set to false if eth_call does not give the correct response to bytecode overrides
returns
  • callGasLimitResponse(Promise<EstimateCallGasLimit>): It returns an object containing the callGasLimit value

    type EstimateCallGasLimit = {
      callGasLimit: bigint;
    };

calculatePreVerificationGas

This method is used to estimate the preVerificationGas for a given userOperation. The exact implementation of this method is network-dependent hence make sure to use network-specific gas estimator clients

Usage
const preVerficationGasResponse =
  await gasEstimator.calculatePreVerificationGas({
    userOperation,
    baseFeePerGas,
  });
Parameters
  • userOperation(UserOperation, required): userOperation to calculate gas estimates for.
  • baseFeePerGas (bigint): optional param, but required for Optimism based networks
returns
  • preVerificationGasResponse(Promise<CalculatePreVerificationGas>) : It returns an object containing the preVerficationGas value

    type CalculatePreVerificationGas = {
      preVerificationGas: bigint;
    };

setEntryPointAddress

This method is used to set the entryPointAddress that is being used in the Gas Estimator instance

Usage
await gasEstimator.setEntryPointAddress("<ENTRY_POINT_ADDRESS>");
Parameters
  • entryPointAddress(string, required): entry point address that one might need to change to.
returns
  • void
