how to run one cloud function in side of another one, also how to pass request from 1th function ?

Trying with

await Moralis.Cloud.run(“Foo”, {request:request})

but this does not work

Hi,

I know that you also asked on Discord. Did you make it work by now?

did you try with: await Moralis.Cloud.run(“Foo”, request)?

#3

This also gives error

Uncaught (in promise) Error: Parse Objects not allowed here

#4

can you past a simple example of two cloud functions where you try to do this?

#5

Moralis.Cloud.define(“BalanceFun”, (request) => {
// do something with request
return 100;
});

Moralis.Cloud.define(“FirstFun”, (request) => {
const balance = await Moralis.Cloud.run(“BalanceFun”, request);

return balance * 10;
});

Moralis.Cloud.define(“SecondFun”, (request) => {
const balance = await Moralis.Cloud.run(“BalanceFun”, request);

return balance / 1000;
});

in js I run FirstFun and SecondFun that should run BalanceFun.

#6

this seems to work:

Moralis.Cloud.define("BalanceFun", async (request) => {
// do something with request
return 100;
});

Moralis.Cloud.define("FirstFun", async (request) => {
const balance = await Moralis.Cloud.run("BalanceFun", JSON.stringify(request));

return balance * 10;
});

but it may not be what you want

#7

I want to access logged user eth address

Moralis.Cloud.define(“BalanceFun”, async (request) => {
const userAddress = request.user.attributes.ethAddress;
return userAddress;
});

Moralis.Cloud.define(“FirstFun”, async (request) => {
const balance = await Moralis.Cloud.run(“BalanceFun”, JSON.stringify(request));

return balance;
});

getting this error now

moralis.js:26416 Uncaught (in promise) Error: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘attributes’)

#8

moralis.js:26416 Uncaught (in promise) Error: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘attributes’)

Did you authenticate a user with Moralis.authenticate? Your BalanceFun function should work if you do.

Also please read this on how to post code.

#9

you can use logger.info to see how the data looks like, it should be a string in this case

you can also use normal functions in cloud code, you don’t have to use cloud functions every time

#10

Yes my user is logged in. Look here

Moralis.Cloud.define("BalanceFun", async (request) => {
//const userAddress = request.user.get('ethAddress');
//return userAddress;
return "";
});

Moralis.Cloud.define("FirstFun", async (request) => {
const user_fromFirstFun = request.user.get('ethAddress');
const user_fromBalanceFun = await Moralis.Cloud.run("BalanceFun", JSON.stringify(request));

return {'user_fromFirstFun': user_fromFirstFun, 'user_fromBalanceFun': user_fromBalanceFun};
});

{user_fromFirstFun: '0xXXXXXXXXXXX', user_fromBalanceFun: ''}

and now

Moralis.Cloud.define("BalanceFun", async (request) => {
const userAddress = request.user.get('ethAddress');
return userAddress;
});

Moralis.Cloud.define("FirstFun", async (request) => {
const user_fromFirstFun = request.user.get('ethAddress');
const user_fromBalanceFun = await Moralis.Cloud.run("BalanceFun", JSON.stringify(request));

return {'user_fromFirstFun': user_fromFirstFun, 'user_fromBalanceFun': user_fromBalanceFun};
});

moralis.js:26416 Uncaught (in promise) Error: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'get')
#11

using simple javascript functions is not an option in this case?

#12

also tried this

const Balance = async (request) => {
    return request.user.attributes.ethAddress;
};


Moralis.Cloud.define("FirstFun", async (request) => {
const user_fromFirstFun = request.user.get('ethAddress');
const bal = Balance(request);
return {'user_fromFirstFun': user_fromFirstFun, 'bal': bal};
});

But this time Balance returns {}

#13

you can send directly the eth address to the other function

#14

I dont want to send any address. Only logged in user should be able to read his data, not any other user data.

#15

it seems different syntax here, you can add some logging to see if it works as expected

#16

how to use simple javascript functions ? why example above is not working ?

#17

the example above is simple javascript, try to add some logging

logger.info(JSON.stringify(variable_name)) usually works in cloud code for logging

#18

Should be request.user.ethAddress

#19

thank you. Works like this

const _Foo = async (request) => {
    return request.user.get('ethAddress');
};


Moralis.Cloud.define("Bar", async (request) => {
    const user = await _Foo(request)
    return user;
});
