Convert v5 signer to v6 signer

[Hugo0]

@apuigsech nope, delayed the project and we just support ethersv5 for now. But these guys told me they did it (i haven't looked through their code though) https://github.com/0xsquid/squid-sdk

@ricmoo Could I get some guidance on this? Is this feasible, to take in an ethers v5 Signer object and 1-1 map it to an ethers v6 Signer object?

My stopgap solution is to have 2 versions of the sdk, one for ethers v5 and one for ethers v6, but it's quite painful to maintain.

Any other ideas highly welcome

Heya! Sorry, this fell off my radar.

When comparing the TypeScript type incompatibilities, what does it complain about? I think they should be mostly already compatible, except the _signTypedData became signTypedData and the getNonce should point to the getTransactionCount.

The other option you have is to sub-class the AbstractSigner which accepts an v5 Signer and just fill in the abstract methods to point to the equivalent methods?

Ideally more people would move to v6. Do you know of any hang ups? I can help anyone that needs migrating, especially frameworks and such. :)

The docs are the bottleneck in migrating :(
even though ur probably doing a good job developing

I need to do exactly the same.

@Hugo0 did you make any progress?
