secretluver(Razor) --> Maybe someone can help me out. I’m testing out account creation with the near-api-js library. I’m using a locally running sandbox chain as my environment.

When I try and send a request to create an account, I get a tx_timeout error. Not sure what might cause this.

Before this happened, the chain was running fine. I shut it down because I was running into another issue. local chain-data was corrupted so I deleted the data folder. Got it back up, but now I’m getting this issue. I’ve tried changing “transaction_validity_period” in genesis.json but didn’t see any success. Do you know what would cause this or how I would resolve this?

secretluver(Razor) --> Nevermind. Resolved. Just deleted EVERYTHING and started back from init.

Benji | NEAR --> is it actually not working or is there just the warning message

secretluver(Razor) --> Thanks for getting back. This problem was resolved.

bluemaus --> Hi folks, I had an idea after some difficulty initially onboarding to NEAR without an authenticated account, I would like some feedback on it. The basic concept is a dApp protocol that will pool NEAR liquidity, which is available for users on other chains to use to fund a new NEAR wallet, since there is a minimum funding requirement that can be hard to fulfill without a CEX. The protocol would use oracles to figure out the conversion rate of other tokens (e.g. ERC-20 tokens) to NEAR, and would capture those tokens and send an equivalent amount of NEAR to the chosen address. The captured tokens could be used as liquidity on that initial chain or bridged over to NEAR to sustain the protocol.

bluemaus --> I also think it could issue an incentive token for people using the protocol to fund accounts as well as people providing NEAR to the protocol. This token would essentially represent value capture for the NEAR ecosystem against other chains.

bluemaus --> I have a few questions for more experienced devs before I try to build something like this:

• does something like this already exist that you know of?
• does this sound feasible? is there a way to get the info from the initial deposit onto the NEAR chain?
• would this be considered a vampire attack/unethical in any way?
  any other feedback is also welcome. It’s just a thought I had since I initially just wanted to create an easier way to onboard to NEAR without using a CEX but this surrounding framework is an effort to make it more decentralized/sustainable

LegalizeOnionFutures --> Noob question, is there a Rust RPC client library? Since the word “client” is overloaded, what I mean is a rust equivalent of near-api-is

LegalizeOnionFutures --> My understanding is that near-sdk-rs is just for writing smart contracts rather than interacting with them

joaquimley --> I think you are correct, you could always build your rust wrapper, just need to translate what’s on the js library to rust.

Larry_lang --> Hiii guys i have noticed that the block time has been increasing from 1.2s to 1.3 1.4s lately… May i ask for the reason behind these changes?

Benji | NEAR --> hmm no clue - i’ll ask

Benji | NEAR --> the timeout isn’t that big of a problem - does the txn fail? or is it just the message

xyq --> why Missing required argument: accountId

xyq --> anyone know?

Benji | NEAR --> you need to sign the transaction so you need to pass in the account ID you want to sign with

rentixous --> Hello everybody. How is it possible to get last transaction for an account using RPC (or maybe other API)?

joaquimley --> Are you talking about client/frontend? See if the near-api-js account details can help:

• https://docs.near.org/docs/api/naj-quick-reference#get-account-details

rentixous --> I want to implement it on Golang, so I should to implement it directly making POST queries to rpc.mainnet.near.org. Account details give only block hash, which I’ve not found useful to get last transactions.

joaquimley --> Doesn’t it also show tx info? I’ve never used it just going fro lm the docs

flyingsaucer --> Huy guys, how do we login in cli using mainnet account?

flyingsaucer --> I am trying this but it is still opening testnet in browser

near login --network_id mainnet

MajinSensei --> not sure what others do but i do export NEAR_ENV=mainnet then near login

flyingsaucer --> amazing, thank you

Vlodkow --> Hello, how can I remove/burn NFT from my account and free account storage? I using NEAR standard contract to mint my NFTs.

Benji | NEAR --> you’ll want to add a burn method on your contract that removes the token from your account in the contract

guest234 --> i bridged over my ETH and it says transfered completed. Its not showing up in wallet though. How can i fix this?

guest234 --> i know the eth is there because i can see it on the bridge if i wanted to transfer it back to erc20

guest234 --> the rainbridge devs said i need to come here to get fixed its a known issue with near wallet

Benji | NEAR --> ask in <#🤝 │ community-support>

Gnarf --> gello there

Gnarf --> what’s the process to maintain a node uptodate ?

Gnarf --> there are many breaking changes taht breaks my node / indexer

Gnarf --> and i dunno how to follow up properly in order to avoid such downtimes

frol --> Subscribe to the discussions on nearcore repo on Github (https://github.com/near/nearcore/discussions/categories/node-public-interfaces) where we post release notes regarding upgrade process for Indexer Framework users

Benji | NEAR --> hmm perhaps u should be added to the indexer support TG chat. They post all major changes and announcements there. cc <@!frol>

Gnarf --> is there any mailing list / channel that announce updates ?

Gnarf --> Yes please

buddhaha --> Hi, I’m doing some test mints on the test network. I deployed at xxx.zzz.near, which I cant log into on the wallet (afaik). So i minted from zzz.near. When doing near view… I see that zzz.near is the owner of a token, however, it doesn’t show up in the collectibles wallet. Anyone that can help me out with this?

buddhaha --> also, can I get a passphrase from my private key?

buddhaha --> or can I import a wallet using the private key?

Benji | NEAR --> if your contract conforms to the standards, everything should be fine. The only other possibility is if your media file in the metadata is not viewable

buddhaha --> I realized I sent it to a .near wallet instead of .testnet kek, sorry and thanks

Benji | NEAR --> use this: https://wallet.near.org/auto-import-secret-key#YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID/YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY

buddhaha --> I have another question though. I’m creating a contract right now, and I don’t want to send in metadata from the frontend for every mint. How can I connect the tokens to the metadata before the mint?

My solution would be to create a struct of metadata, mapping NFT #s to metadata. Like:
{
“0”: {metadata…}
“1”: {metadata…}
}
and so on.

Is there a smarter way of doing this?

Benji | NEAR --> i mean yea you could do something like this where u pass in the metadata key and store a map of metadata in the contract. It’s really up to you

buddhaha --> Have you got any better suggestion?

Benji | NEAR --> no that seems fine. I haven’t thought about it a lot though

camchis --> getting this really annoying error when using signAndSendTransaction and can’t figure out why

camchis -->

buddhaha --> I have a bug when running the nft-tutorial… checkout to 3.enumeration branch (so code should be directly from the tutorial), but I get this error:
"wasm execution failed with error: FunctionCallError(HostError(GuestPanic { panic_msg: \"panicked at 'Failed to deserialize input from JSON.: Error(\\\"invalid type: integer `10`, expected a string\\\", line: 1, column: 16)', src\\\\enumeration.rs:3:1\"

joaquimley --> I don’t know if it is your terminal’s font but your single and double quotes look strange

Copy-paste this (change your account id)

near call guest-book.testnet --accountId YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID.testnet addMessage '{ "text" : "Aloha" }'

xyq --> What mistake is this

joaquimley --> FYI: This can happen if you are copy pasting from other editors e.g. slack

xyq --> but I can use naer view ,just near call can’t

xyq -->

joaquimley --> <@!xyq> have you tried this?

xyq -->

xyq --> yeah

xyq --> display the same mistake

joaquimley --> can you please copy paste your call here as it is hard to debug from screenshots 😅

xyq --> An error occured
SyntaxError: Unexpected token t in JSON at position 1
at JSON.parse ()
at scheduleFunctionCall (C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\near-cli\commands\call.js:54:84)
at async Object.handler (C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\near-cli\utils\exit-on-error.js:52:9)

xyq --> 😋

joaquimley --> no, not the error the call, your input ^^

xyq --> I think this is a common problem

xyq --> near call guest-book.testnet --accountId xyq888.testnet addMessage ‘{“text”;“Aloha”}’

joaquimley --> yep so

joaquimley --> you should’ve copied from what I posted there

joaquimley --> you are using text ; Aloha

joaquimley --> is isn’t “;” but “:”

joaquimley --> ```
near call guest-book.testnet --accountId xyq888.testnet addMessage ‘{ “text” : “Aloha” }’

joaquimley --> So you didn't really copy pasted what I posted above...

xyq --> 

xyq --> near call guest-book.testnet --accountId xyq888.testnet addMessage '{ "text" : "Aloha" }'

xyq --> The second time I played with my hand, I input wrong，that ;😅

xyq --> maybe a problem with my system settings？

joaquimley --> maybe i don't know

joaquimley --> This one worked for me 

near call guest-book.testnet --accountId joaquimley.testnet addMessage ‘{ “text” : “Aloha” }’

xyq --> ok,thanks

ashen_99 --> Hi all, I am getting this error when trying to pass null values to near. Could you help me out. I am still new to this stuff. 🙃

Benji | NEAR --> i’d need to see ur contract code

ashen_99 --> Hi, here is the code.

https://github.com/curaOS/contracts/blob/1efe4cb2847fd653e4165cb6361378603668a743/as/cNFT/assembly/models/persistent_nft_contract_metadata.ts#L8-L36

This way it is working just fine. But when I try to use null instead of empty strings, I am getting that error. I would like to know why is that.

Thanks 😊

ashen_99 --> <@!Benji | NEAR> hi, here is the contract code that you have asked. Could you check it, when you have time. Thanks 😊

sohom --> heyy guys, I am building a project on NEAR, should I write smart contracts in rust or build it with solidity using aurora ??

sohom --> really noob doubt, but still

Benji | NEAR --> I would recommend rust
