eth-block-tracker/CHANGELOG.md

A block tracker for the Ethereum blockchain. Keeps track of the latest block.

### 4.0.0

Significant rewrite of `eth-block-tracker`. Primary reason was optimizing network IO.

BlockTrackers no longer have manual stop/start methods, they now automatically start and stop based on listener count for the `latest` and `sync` events. You can force a stop by calling the `EventEmitter` method `removeAllListeners`.

Events now only return the block number. Internal polling is done via `eth_blockNumber`.
The `block` event has been removed, please use `latest` or `sync`.

- added isRunning
- added `error` event
- renamed awaitCurrentBlock -> getLatestBlock
- removed tx body from block
- removed getTrackingBlock
- removed start/stop
- removed `block` event
- removed test/util/testBlockMiddleware


### 3.0.0

- npm module main now exports unprocessed source
- module includes dist:
  - bundle: `dist/EthBlockTracker.js`
  - es5 source: `dist/es5/`
- fixes `awaitCurrentBlock` return value
- `lib` renamed to `src`
- `eth-block-tracker` is now a normal `EventEmitter`, does not provide a callback to event handlers
