\\ Proposing this structure for getters and senders.

export interface Pong {
  response: string;
}

export class Ping<TBigNumber> {
  public static PingParams = t.type({});

  @Getter()
  public static async ping<TBigNumber>(db: DB<TBigNumber>, params: t.TypeOf<typeof Ping.PingParams>): Promise<Pong> {
    return {
      response: "pong",
    };
  }
  
  @Sender()
  public static async ping<TBigNumber>(provider: AugurProvider, params: t.TypeOf<typeof Ping.PingParams>): Promise<Pong> {
    return provider.send(params.encode());
  }
}

\\ The provider is responsible for the following operations:

{ subscribe, unsubscribe, send, handleResponse, connect, disconnect }
 
 
 Event handlers can have a similar format
 
 export interface Pong {
  response: string;
}

export class Ping<TBigNumber> {
  public static PingParams = t.type({});

  @HandleEvent()
  public static async ping<TBigNumber>(provider: AugurProvider, params: t.TypeOf<typeof Ping.PingParams>): Promise<Pong> {
    return provider.send(params.encode());
  }
}
