Transactions
Similarly to query contracts, the Contract
interface will also be using to submitting transactions with syntax: contract.tx.<message>
.
import { Contract } from 'dedot/contract';
import { FlipperContractApi } from './flipper';
import flipperMetadata from './flipper.json' assert { type: 'json' };
// ... initializing DedotClient
const ALICE = '5GrwvaEF5zXb26Fz9rcQpDWS57CtERHpNehXCPcNoHGKutQY'; // Alice
const contractAddress = '...';
// create a contract instace from its metadata & address
const contract = new Contract<FlipperContractApi>(client, flipperMetadata, contractAddress, { defaultCaller: ALICE });
// Submitting the transaction
const { events } = await contract.tx.flip()
.signAndSend(ALICE, ({ status }) => {
console.log(status.type)
})
.untilFinalized(); // or .untilBestChainBlockIncluded();
// fully-typed event
const flippedEvent = contract.events.Flipped.find(events);
console.log('Old value', flippedEvent.data.old);
console.log('New value', flippedEvent.data.new);
Dry-run the transaction explicitly
If the contract message (transaction) returns a Result<Data, Error>, you can explicitly perform a dry-run to verify the result before submitting the transaction.
// Dry-run the call for validation and gas estimation
const result = await contract.query.flip();
// Check if the message return a `Result<Data, Error>`
// Skip this check if the message returning raw Data
if (result.data.isErr) {
console.log('Cannot make transaction due to error:', data.err);
} else {
// Submit the transaction via contract.tx.flip()
}
