v2.0.0

Features

• Top level package has moved from @alch/alchemy-sdk to alchemy-sdk for convenience. New command to install is npm install alchemy-sdk
• Updated instantiation syntax: initializeAlchemy(settings) is now new Alchemy(settings)
• Added three namespaces under the Alchemy object: core, nft, and ws. All Ethers.js provider methods and Alchemy Enhanced APIs (other than NFT) are under core.
• Moved top-level methods under the Alchemy object. Instead of getNftsByOwner(alchemy, 'vitalik.eth'), now methods are called using alchemy.nft.getNftsByOwner('vitalik.eth')
• Ethers.js Alchemy Provider methods are now directly embedded under alchemy.core
• Ethers.js WebSocket Provider methods are now directly embedded under alchemy.ws
• The settings object is now a config module under alchemy.config.
• If necessary, the full Ethers.js Provider is now available under alchemy.config.getProvider() as a promise to reduce bundle size.
• If necessary, the full WebSocket Provider is now available under alchemy.config.getWebSocketProvider() as a promise to reduce bundle size.
• Dynamic imports for large methods (in particular, Ethers.js methods) are now supported. Initial package size for the Alchemy SDK is 20kB, and will only download Ethers.js packages when a relevant method is called.
• Methods including Collection in the NFT package have been renamed to Contract: for instance, getNftsForCollection is now getNftsForContract.
