Error while deserializing EthFilterSpec

[elmattic]

Describe the bug

We don't support deserializing of "topics" correctly.

To reproduce

Run Forest and this Curl command:

curl -X POST 'http://127.0.0.1:2345/rpc/v1' \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"Filecoin.EthGetLogs","params":[{"blockHash": "0xa158a536fe66e18b8cbf5c392384d840483f84732e2a2ed8d9fb68cedcffef54", "address": ["0x51e1f72b655528de2d4d88e70bd53774db8d0b0c"], "topics": ["0x90890809c654f11d6e72a28fa60149770a0d11ec6c92319d6ceb2bb0a4ea1a15"]}]}'

Log output

You should see:

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"error":{"code":-32602,"message":"error deserializing parameter","data":{"error":"invalid type: string \"0x90890809c654f11d6e72a28fa60149770a0d11ec6c92319d6ceb2bb0a4ea1a15\", expected a sequence","index":0,"name":"eth_filter","type":"forest_filecoin::lotus_json::LotusJson<forest_filecoin::rpc::methods::eth::types::EthFilterSpec>"}}}

Expected behavior

We should be able to deserialize this type.

We should have complete test coverage.

Screenshots

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: any
• Branch: main or 551932e (to reproduce my test settings)

Other information and links

Note I have already fixed topics here to allow for null topics.

[sudo-shashank]

@elmattic topics fields in EthFilterSpec is a collection of EthHashList which is a collection of EthHash

forest/src/rpc/methods/eth/types.rs

Lines 351 to 355 in a875e3d

	#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug, Clone, JsonSchema)]
	pub struct EthHashList(pub Vec<EthHash>);
	#[derive(Default, Serialize, Deserialize, Debug, Clone, JsonSchema)]
	pub struct EthTopicSpec(pub Vec<EthHashList>);

correct curl cmd:

curl -X POST 'http://127.0.0.1:2345/rpc/v1' \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"Filecoin.EthGetLogs","params":[{"blockHash": "0xa158a536fe66e18b8cbf5c392384d840483f84732e2a2ed8d9fb68cedcffef54", "address": ["0x51e1f72b655528de2d4d88e70bd53774db8d0b0c"], "topics": [["0x90890809c654f11d6e72a28fa60149770a0d11ec6c92319d6ceb2bb0a4ea1a15"]]}]}'

[elmattic]

Yes, that works, but a scalar is also possible instead of a list.
