**Motivation** Adds an RPC method that allows reading all transactions currently in the mempool. This endpoint was based off of Geth's `txpool_content` endpoint ([doc](https://geth.ethereum.org/docs/interacting-with-geth/rpc/ns-txpool#txpool-content)) and follows the same response logic & format. As we have no notion of `queued` mempool transactions currenlty, this field will be permanently left empty The namescape and endpoint currently uses `txpool` instead of `mempool` for immediate compatibility with components compatible with geth, we should consider changing the name back to `mempool` to reflect our own types as this is not a standard endpoint and names differ between implementations. <!-- Why does this pull request exist? What are its goals? --> **Description** * Add `Mempool::content` method which returns all transactions * Add `mempool_content` rpc endpoint which returns all mempool transactions grouped by sender and indexed by nonce * (Misc) `RpcTransaction::build` now supports optional transaction index & block number <!-- A clear and concise general description of the changes this PR introduces --> <!-- Link to issues: Resolves #111, Resolves #222 --> Closes #2864

Other EL clients have a RPC method to get the pending transactions (i.e. in the mempool), that is used for explorers. Geth call it
txpool_contentand others like Erigon and Nethermindparity_pendingTransactionsThe text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
