JsonRpcProvider.connection not documented
See original GitHub issueUnless I’m going crazy, JsonRpcProvider.connection is the only public API for obtaining the URL which the provider is connected to … but it’s not documented:
- https://docs.ethers.io/v5/api/providers/jsonrpc-provider/#JsonRpcProvider
- https://docs.ethers.io/v5/search/?search=.connection
IIUC, it returns either an object like { url: "https://..." }, or the ConnectionInfo object which was passed into the constructor.
And while I’m here, I note that the ConnectionInfo type is documented under API > Utilities > Web Utilities, which seems like an very odd and counter-intuitive place to put it:
https://docs.ethers.io/v5/api/utils/web/#ConnectionInfo
I doubt anyone would be able to easily find that via the navbar alone.

I can’t do anything about Hardhat, you would have to discuss that with them.
But I’ll update the ethers docs. 😃
Great thanks!
