Complex Cross Contract Call

This example presents 3 instances of complex cross-contract calls. Particularly, it shows:

  1. How to batch multiple function calls to a same contract.
  2. How to call multiple contracts in parallel, each returning a different type.
  3. Different ways of handling the responses in the callback.

Obtaining the Cross Contract Call Example​

You have two options to start the Donation Example:

  1. You can use the app through Github Codespaces, which will open a web-based interactive environment.
  2. Clone the repository locally and use it from your computer.

Structure of the Example​

The smart contract is available in two flavors: Rust and JavaScript

Smart Contract​

Batch Actions​

You can aggregate multiple actions directed towards one same contract into a batched transaction. Methods called this way are executed sequentially, with the added benefit that, if one fails then they all get reverted.

Getting the Last Response​

In this case, the callback has access to the value returned by the last action from the chain.

Calling Multiple Contracts​

A contract can call multiple other contracts. This creates multiple transactions that execute all in parallel. If one of them fails the rest ARE NOT REVERTED.

Getting All Responses​

In this case, the callback has access to an array of responses, which have either the value returned by each call, or an error message.

Multiple Calls - Same Result Type​

This example is a particular case of the previous one (Calling Multiple Contracts). It simply showcases a different way to check the results by directly accessing the promise_result array.

In this case, we call multiple contracts that will return the same type:

Getting All Responses​

In this case, the callback again has access to an array of responses, which we can iterate checking the results.

Testing the Contract​

The contract readily includes a set of unit and sandbox testing to validate its functionality. To execute the tests, run the following commands:

cd contract-advanced-ts
yarn
yarn test
提示

The integration tests use a sandbox to create NEAR users and simulate interactions with the contract.

Deploying the Contract to the NEAR network​

In order to deploy the contract you will need to create a NEAR account.

# Create a new account pre-funded by a faucet
near create-account <accountId> --useFaucet

Go into the directory containing the smart contract (cd contract-advanced-ts or cd contract-advanced-rs), build and deploy it:

cargo near build

cargo near deploy <accountId> with-init-call new json-args '{"hello_account":"hello.near-example.testnet","guestbook_account":"guestbook_account.near-example.testnet","counter_account":"counter_account.near-example.testnet"}' prepaid-gas '100.0 Tgas' attached-deposit '0 NEAR' network-config testnet sign-with-keychain send

CLI: Interacting with the Contract​

To interact with the contract through the console, you can use the following commands:

# Execute contracts sequentially
# Replace <accountId> with your account ID
near call <accountId> batch_actions --accountId <accountId> --gas 300000000000000   

# Execute contracts in parallel
# Replace <accountId> with your account ID
near call <accountId>  multiple_contracts --accountId <accountId> --gas 300000000000000   

# Execute multiple instances of the same contract in parallel
# Replace <accountId> with your account ID
near call <accountId> similar_contracts --accountId <accountId> --gas 300000000000000
信息

If at some point you get an "Exceeded the prepaid gas" error, try to increase the gas amount used within the functions when calling other contracts
