contract.method.getData

Description

With web3 I make use of the getData functionality to get the data to be sent as part of a transaction

Currently ethjs does not seem to offer that functionality

from web3 doc here : https://github.com/ethereum/wiki/wiki/JavaScript-API#contract-methods

// Get the call data, so you can call the contract through some other means
var myCallData = myContractInstance.myMethod.getData(param1 [, param2, ...]);
// myCallData = '0x45ff3ff6000000000004545345345345..'

I can offer this in the new update.

@wighawag Ethjs-abi has a function to achieve similar.
