Ethers V6 Upgrade

[jfbloom22]

Any interest in updating the SDKs to Ethers V6? I am really enjoying using BigInts rather than BigNumber. Happy to help with this effort.

Which SDKs need to be updated for Ethers V6?

• permit2-sdk
• universal-router-sdk
• uniswapx-sdk
• v4-sdk

+1

Surely v4-sdk, I don't know about the others.
I got there while trying to migrate ImmutableX ts sdk.

+1 on ethers v6 for uniswapx-sdk

I noticed that in some places, the SDK uses ethers v5 "directly" by importing ethers/... instead of @ethersproject/...
See:

sdks/sdks/v4-sdk/src/entities/pool.ts

Line 13 in a8713a0

import { defaultAbiCoder, isAddress } from 'ethers/lib/utils'

This causes conflicts when using the SDK with other packages that depend on ethers v6.

Should I open a PR to fix these imports before the transition to v6 happens ?

sorry to be a bummer, but uniswap tech stack across frontend, backend, and protocol is largely on ethers-v5 - https://github.com/search?q=org%3AUniswap+ethers-v5&type=code.

sadly, v4-sdk is a dependency to router-sdk/universal-router-sdk, which then gets used in various repos, so that if uniswap were to upgrade to ethers-v5, I see non-trivial effort. worth keeping this issue though, because ethers-v5 is not state-of-the-art

Can you guys at least declare the ethers.js v5 dependency correctly rather than assuming whatever version the depending package uses is correct? That way npm will install a v5 for your package even if the depending package uses v6.
