Problem

Responses from the client are not automatically converted into the defined model types (for all endpoints).

We've done this for some endpoints (see

// eslint-disable-next-line class-methods-use-this
prepare(body: Record<string, any>): BoxesResponse {
return BoxesResponse.from_obj_for_encoding(body);
}
), but other endpoints, in order to avoid backwards incompatible changes, do not implement this (see https://github.com/algorand/js-algorand-sdk/blob/a89046acaf9502f496fca9d781bf33047c969c01/src/client/v2/algod/getApplicationByID.ts for example).

Solution

Implement the response.from_obj_for_encoding(body) for all endpoints which return structured data.

Dependencies

N/A

Urgency

We should group this with any other breaking changes being made in the next major version bump.

If we want to make typed response objects available sooner, we could consider introducing a new set of functions that can be used in place of do, e.g. doTyped or execute, which would return a typed response. We could then consider deprecating and removing do in v3 -- this would arguably be a safer way of swapping the behavior, since instead of changing a function's return type, we'd be removing the function in favor of a different one.

An additional issue to consider w/ this mentioned in #533 is handling the conversion of the returned keys which include hyphens to the JS camel case keys.
