v2.21.0: Hardhat v2.21.0 — Introducing EDR

Compare Source

This version of Hardhat marks the debut of EDR (Ethereum Development Runtime), our new Rust-based runtime that is a complete rewrite of the original TypeScript-based Hardhat Network. This release lays a new long-term foundation for Hardhat's evolution over the coming year.

There are no functional changes, but there are some performance improvements across the board, which we’ll continue to expand in future updates.

Given the significance of this internal change, there’s a possibility of bugs. If you encounter any problems specific to this version, please report them by opening an issue. You should be able to downgrade to v2.20.1 without losing functionality if needed.

solidity-coverage out-of-memory issues

The solidity-coverage plugin works by heavily instrumenting the code, which sometimes causes OOM (out-of-memory) issues. This new version of Hardhat can, in certain cases, make those problems more likely.

If you run into this, you can fix it by using Node.js’s --max-old-space-size flag:

NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=8192" npx hardhat coverage

Dropping support for Node.js v16

As part of this release, we are dropping support for Node.js v16. This version of Node.js reached its end-of-life in September of last year. You can learn more about our support guarantees here.

v2.20.1: Hardhat v2.20.1

Compare Source

This release fixes a bug when hardhat_setStorageAt was used in untouched addresses.

v2.20.0: Hardhat v2.20.0 — Cancun

Compare Source

This release adds support for the upcoming cancun hardfork. This hardfork is not enabled by default; if you want to use it, then you have to enable it in your Hardhat config:

module.exports = {
  networks: {
    hardhat: {
      hardfork: "cancun",
    },
  },
}

Keep in mind that blob transactions are not supported yet. If you need this, please upvote or comment on this issue.

In addition, this release adds support for solc 0.8.24.

v2.19.5: Hardhat v2.19.5

Compare Source

This release includes the following changes:

• Notify users when a new Hardhat version is available
• Fixed a bug during project initialization when using yarn or pnpm
• Fixed a race condition that occurred when multiple Hardhat processes ran a compilation at the same time
• Added a fix to prevent submitting transactions with 0 priority fee (thanks @​itsdevbear!)

v2.19.4: Hardhat v2.19.4

Compare Source

This release changes our telemetry to anonymously report the consent response.

v2.19.3: Hardhat v2.19.3

Compare Source

This release adds support for solc 0.8.23. It also includes a temporary informative message about the ongoing 2023 Solidity Survey.

v2.19.2: Hardhat v2.19.2

Compare Source

This release adds experimental support for ESM in typescript projects.

In addition to that, the hardhat-shorthand tool (hh) now supports scoped tasks.

v2.19.1: Hardhat v2.19.1

Compare Source

This release fixes a couple of issues:

• A problem in low-traffic chains that resulted in txs using a maxPriorityFeePerGas of 0, which were then rejected by the node.
• A bug in the compiler downloader that was triggered in big projects that used many different versions of solc.

Besides that, the project initialization now uses the latest version of the Hardhat Toolboxes.

v2.19.0: Hardhat v2.19.0

Compare Source

This new version of Hardhat introduces a new feature: Configuration Variables!

Configuration variables let you use values in a configuration file without making them part of your project. They work as a replacement for environment variables and dotenv, but are more flexible and powerful. Read our guide to learn more.

This version also adds support for solc v0.8.22.

v2.18.3: Hardhat v2.18.3

Compare Source

This release adds ignition deploy to our telemetry-reported tasks.
