I am really looking forward to this change. I wanted to let you know that I have created a minimal example for testing here: https://github.com/cakevm/alloy-to-reth-primitives/blob/main/src/main.rs The idea here is that it makes testing ExEx easier by fetching blocks from RPC and ingesting them into Reth. Like the benchmark in reth is doing.

PS: Maybe it makes sense to get rid of some feature flags from reth-optimism-primitives to be on par with the reth-ethereum-primitivescrate.

such as?
could you perhaps summarize this in a reth issue?

@cakevm
this https://github.com/cakevm/alloy-to-reth-primitives/blob/main/src/main.rs is helpful

this should become easier: alloy-rs/alloy#2033

It is really a minor thing. Maybe I am also missing something, but it feels odd that I require different features for the same functionality. But probably I miss some other dependencies why this is required. When I have I bigger picture I can open a issue of course.

As you can see in the example:

# eth-reth
reth-ethereum-primitives = { git = "https://github.com/paradigmxyz/reth", rev = "1e0b0d8", features = [
  "reth-codec"
] }

# op-reth
reth-optimism-primitives = { git = "https://github.com/paradigmxyz/reth", rev = "1e0b0d8", features = [
  "alloy-compat",
  "optimism",
  "reth-codec",
  "serde",
] }

there's currently a limitation where some reth crates are incompatible dues to revm optimism features, this will go away within the next few weeks and then we can combine all of this
