What are you trying to dir sir ?

starting a local devchain and i stumble into this

I see people having issues with npm and the boilerplate .

Clone the repo again and use
yarn install
Then
yarn run start

is there any workaround to fix this?

Thank you for the great work

Hi @mrhigh3r

It looks like a problem because of the third-party library @ui-kitten . If you share your full code repo we will be able to check it

Intro

@MoralisTeam, thanks for creating this boilerplate. Iā€™m working on my first project as part of Chainlink hackathon, and your boilerplate has been most helpful.

Wanted to share an issue I ran into. Maybe it will help others, and wondering whatā€™s the ā€œrightā€ way to address the issue.

Details

I have a simple ERC1155 contract, and wanted to replace the MetaCoin example in boilerplate -> Contracts with my own. So I created an abi (using hardhat-abi-exporter), and then replicated most of what I saw in src/contracts/contractInfo.json.

It mostly worked. However I noticed that functions with array inputs didnā€™t work. For example, the standard balanceOf(address, uint256) worked, but balanceOfBatch(address[], uint256[]) suffered from 2 errors related to parameters that were arrays:

  1. The uint256[] was causing an ā€˜param.map is not a function errorā€™
  2. The address[] was causing an invalid argugment error

I tracked this down to node_modules/web3-eth-abi/lib/index.js the function is ABICoder.prototype.formatParam, and observed that:

  1. The code has regex to identify integer arrays, and attempts to process them. But it assumes the param IS an array, and calls param.map. The form input from Contracts UI is not an array, itā€™s a string. Here are code snippets:
// I'm snipping relevant code from ABICoder.prototype.formatParam
const paramTypeBytesArray = new RegExp(/^bytes([0-9]*)\[\]$/);
const paramTypeNumberArray = new RegExp(/^(u?int)([0-9]*)\[\]$/);

if (type.match(paramTypeBytesArray) || type.match(paramTypeNumberArray)) {
        return param.map(p => this.formatParam(type.replace('[]', ''), p));
    }
  1. The code had no awareness of address[], and was treating these as a string. When the call is evenutally made to the Contract, I suspect this invalid argument is triggered.

End

I temporarily confirmed / got around this issue by making some changes to web3-eth-abi code. I know this isnā€™t the right solution. But it did allow me to confirm the issue, and I was able to successfully call my contract functions that needed array inputs.

Iā€™m wondering if the Contract.jsx or some other ethereum-boilerplate code changes to better support arrays in Contracts UI. Apologies, Iā€™m new to React as well, and so donā€™t have an informed comment on this. Still trying to wrap my head around everything.

Thanks again team, Iā€™m really enjoying the Moralis features as I work on my hackathon project!

NFTs arenā€™t showing anymore. It worked fine until yesterday. I started again from scratch and still doesnā€™t work. Logs show the array is empty, so it doesnā€™t get any NFTs to begin with.

Hi @lautaro

Thank you for your patience :raised_hands:
There was a bug and it is already fixed. Pull the latest version and Happy BUIDLing :man_factory_worker:

Hi @gallilama!

Thank you for your feedback and thank you for your patience :raised_hands:

ABI generates automatically after you deploy your contract on testnet, all you need is to change the MetaContract.sol file.

We will add better parsing options in next versions. Weā€™ll notify you about the update :raised_hands:

Uncaught (in promise) Error: Returned values aren't valid, did it run Out of Gas? You might also see this error if you are not using the correct ABI for the contract you are retrieving data from, requesting data from a block number that does not exist, or querying a node which is not fully synced.

I am getting this issue on console I have changed the contracts to my custom contracts and after changing required dependencies.

Hi @utsavsingla

Make sure you are in the right chain, also make sure the contract address is correct

Are you calling it on the localdevchain?

Yes I am calling the local dev chain. I have done exactly as it is written on the quickstart page after npm run start

does it have the same name Metacoin?

Yes, even with the same boilerplate template, no changes to the contract. I am getting this error.

Iā€™ll test it and prepare a detailed instructions of using this feature. Iā€™ll keep in touch with you :man_factory_worker:

Great, itā€™ll be much better if you can add instructions on how to integrate our custom contract.


This video is of great help though

I did some tests. You can see this error when you are calling your contract too early after you deployed it, but usually 10 secs waiting solves this problem.

Do you see any errors in the console during contract deployment? Has the list of contract methods been updated after you deployed your own contract?
