op-alloy consists of a number of crates that provide a range of functionality essential for interfacing with any OP Stack chain. The most succinct way to work with op-alloy is to add the op-alloy crate with the full feature flag from the command-line using Cargo.
Alternatively, you can add the following to your Cargo.toml file.
For more fine-grained control over the features you wish to include, you can add the individual crates to your Cargo.toml file, or use the op-alloy crate with the features you need. After op-alloy is added as a dependency, crates re-exported by op-alloy are now available.

​
Features

The op-alloy defines many feature flags including the following. Default
  • std
  • k256
  • serde
Full enables the most commonly used crates.
  • full
The k256 feature flag enables the k256 feature on the op-alloy-consensus crate.
  • k256
Arbitrary enables arbitrary features on crates, deriving the Arbitrary trait on types.
  • arbitrary
Serde derives serde’s Serialize and Deserialize traits on types.
  • serde
Additionally, individual crates can be enabled using their shorthand names. For example, the consensus feature flag provides the op-alloy-consensus re-export so op-alloy-consensus types can be used from op-alloy through op_alloy::consensus::InsertTypeHere.

Crates

no_std

As noted above, the following crates are no_std compatible. To add no_std support to a crate, ensure the check_no_std script is updated to include this crate once no_std compatible.
