Error saving on IPFS

#1

Hi, I have and error saving data on IPFS using Moralis.EvmApi.ipfs.uploadFolder.
I send data from javascript using axios.post to my backend in node.js
This is my abi:

[
  {
    path: 'metadata.json',
    content: {
      PlotID: '0xca060fe0631114c2392bbf43b75b10a3006b2562588b58cb8b4abb7b9895b9fd',
      PlotX: '5',
      PlotY: '7',
      LocationX: '500',
      LocationY: '700',
      imageHash: 'Qmar3TbD4SJCVomEHYADm8gjtmM4Zz2C9DJvRLhse9KQLH',
      imageIpfs: 'https://ipfs.moralis.io:2053/ipfs/Qmar3TbD4SJCVomEHYADm8gjtmM4Zz2C9DJvRLhse9KQLH/0xca060fe0631114c2392bbf43b75b10a3006b2562588b58cb8b4abb7b9895b9fd.png'
    }
  }
]

and this is what I get

C:\myproject\Api\node_modules\express\lib\response.js:1150
: JSON.stringify(value);
^

TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON
ā€“> starting at object with constructor ā€˜ClientRequestā€™

at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:96:5)

It worked days ago, then suddenly stopped

Any suggestion???
Thanks

Usually you could get an error like this one when you have an object instead of a string as parameter for a function

#3

Ok, but this is a snippet from documentation

const abi = [
    {
      path: "YOUR_FILE_PATH",
      content: "YOUR_JSON_OR_BASE64",
    },
  ];

If I try using btoa(JSON.stringify(MYJSON)) I get same error

#4

you can try it directly in docs interface:

#5

In docs interface it works, if I use window.btoa(JSON.stringify(MYJSON))

In my code no, this is the abi I pass to Moralis function

[
  {
    path: 'metadata.json',
    content: 'eyJQbG90SUQiOiIweDUzNTk0MTU4NDNlMjcwOTBkOWFlZTU1NjU3MTNmYjE5ZDhiNGM3M2Y4M2E5YjBkMWNjY2M3ZjBkZDQ1OThhMWIiLCJQbG90WCI6IjExIiwiUGxvdFkiOiI0IiwiTG9jYXRpb25YIjoiMTEwMCIsIkxvY2F0aW9uWSI6IjQwMCIsImltYWdlSGFzaCI6IlFtTmpSY2l0OWNkOVBQU1pjZjhISkZqRVB1RVFkWGhjS0g2WFlZbmVnNHY1bmQiLCJpbWFnZUlwZnMiOiJodHRwczovL2lwZnMubW9yYWxpcy5pbzoyMDUzL2lwZnMvUW1OalJjaXQ5Y2Q5UFBTWmNmOEhKRmpFUHVFUWRYaGNLSDZYWVluZWc0djVuZC8weDUzNTk0MTU4NDNlMjcwOTBkOWFlZTU1NjU3MTNmYjE5ZDhiNGM3M2Y4M2E5YjBkMWNjY2M3ZjBkZDQ1OThhMWIucG5nIn0='
  }
]
#6

Try with only a string maybe?
Can you add some logging to see what you send in that request?

#7

Trying to send just a string (ā€œsā€) converted in base64, so window.btoa(ā€œsā€) in the content I get this error

{ā€œresā€:ā€œKOā€,ā€œmsgā€:{ā€œnameā€:ā€œMoralis SDK Errorā€,ā€œisMoralisErrorā€:true,ā€œcodeā€:ā€œC0005ā€}}

#8

what part of this input you are trying to convert it to base64?

#9

The content is a json like that some message above stringified and converted in base64
Something like this

const data = {
    path: 'metadata.json',
    content: {
      PlotID: '0xca060fe0631114c2392bbf43b75b10a3006b2562588b58cb8b4abb7b9895b9fd',
      PlotX: '5',
      PlotY: '7',
      LocationX: '500',
      LocationY: '700',
      imageHash: 'Qmar3TbD4SJCVomEHYADm8gjtmM4Zz2C9DJvRLhse9KQLH',
      imageIpfs: 'https://ipfs.moralis.io:2053/ipfs/Qmar3TbD4SJCVomEHYADm8gjtmM4Zz2C9DJvRLhse9KQLH/0xca060fe0631114c2392bbf43b75b10a3006b2562588b58cb8b4abb7b9895b9fd.png'
    }
  }

content: window.btoa(JSON.stringify(data))

The thing I canā€™t figure it out is that if I call my node function that call Moralis ipfs uploaf function with Insomnia (software like postman) it works, within my frontend javascript no

How you can see within the content thereā€™s an ipfs.moralis link so this function works, but somehow this call doesnā€™t work

#10

it looks like this is the part that should e converted be string and than to base64

#11

Yes, sorry, my previous message was wrong, I convert into string and then base64 that json you wrote above that is the content value

#12

Can you share a complete code that doesnā€™t work?

#13

Yes, this is the code
Frontend

//here I initialize the json and pass to a function
		const metadata = {
			"PlotID": plotID.toString(),
			"PlotX": land.tile.x.toString(),
			"PlotY": land.tile.y.toString(),
			"LocationX": land.absPosition.x.toString(),
			"LocationY": land.absPosition.y.toString(),
			"imageHash": land.imageHash.toString(),
			"imageIpfs": land.imageIpfs.toString()
		}

		const metadataFile = await savePlotDataToIPFS(metadata);


//function
async function savePlotDataToIPFS(metadata) {
	const params = {
		ppath: "metadata.json",
		pcontent: window.btoa(JSON.stringify(metadata))
	}

	const res = await handleApiPost('moralis/save-plot', params);

	if (res.res == "OK")
		return res.msg;
	else
		return null;
}


//function
const handleApiPost = async (endpoint, params) => {
	const result = await axios.post(`${serverUrl}/${endpoint}`, params, {
		headers: {
			'Content-Type': 'application/json',
		},
	});

	return result.data;
};

Here is my Backend

exports.savePlotToIPFS = async (req, res) => {

  //check the req body
  if (!req.body) {
    res.status(400).send({
      res: "KO",
      msg: "No data"
    });
    return;
  }
   const abi = [
     {
       path: req.body.ppath.toString(),
       content: req.body.pcontent.toString()
     },
   ];

  try {
    const response = await Moralis.EvmApi.ipfs.uploadFolder({
         abi
    });

    res.status(200).send({
      res: "OK",
      msg: {
        "ipfs": response.jsonResponse[0].path,
        "hash": response.jsonResponse[0].path.split('/')[4]
      }
    });

  } catch(err){
    res.status(400).send({
      res: "KO",
      msg: err
    });
  }
}

Thatā€™s all

#14

Try to add some logging here to see that is the value for that abi

#15

Here you may have to send the parameters as a string

#16

Using JSON.stringify same errorā€¦

#17

try to add some logging with console.log for the parameters

#18

Now I get error in authentication function Moralis.Auth.requestMessage

this is the payload

{
    "address": "0x4e6b9ae717c34d8f0047f1c40e6459fa6b25d381",
    "chain": "0x1",
    "network": "evm",
    "DOMAIN": "dc3.space",
    "STATEMENT": "Please sign this message to confirm your identity.",
    "URI": "https://dc3.space/dc3land",
    "EXPIRATION_TIME": "2024-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",
    "TIMEOUT": 30
}

and this is the issue

{
ā€œresā€: ā€œKOā€,
ā€œmsgā€: {
ā€œnameā€: ā€œMoralis SDK Errorā€,
ā€œisMoralisErrorā€: true,
ā€œcodeā€: ā€œC0005ā€
}
}

Iā€™ve updated Moralis version to 2.18.0

Is there something wrong with your SDK?

#19

the same syntax worked before?

there keys have to be in uppercase?

#20

This is the payload to my node function that calls Moralis.Auth.requestMessage

const result = await Moralis.Auth.requestMessage({
      address: paddress,
      chain,
      network,
      domain: req.body.DOMAIN,
      statement: req.body.STATEMENT,
      uri: req.body.URI,
      expirationTime: req.body.EXPIRATION_TIME,
      timeout: req.body.TIMEOUT,
    });

Yes, same syntax worked before
