How to format in the "send" command

[danimesq]

Is ethereal contract send --contract=0xfa28eC7198028438514b49a3CF353BcA5541ce1d --json=Peepeth.json --call='post(ipfs-hash)' --from=0xDDfC2e10702d8A781727A34D83B3bb3CA94a3E91 correct?

Using the Peepeth ABI on justsmartcontracts:

How to properly pass to the "send" command that the call is post and _ipfsHash (string)?

Peepeth.json:

From the help output:

--abi string        ABI, or path to ABI, for the contract
--json string       JSON, or path to JSON, for the contract as output by solc --combined-json=bin,abi

So you want to use --abi not --json.

So you want to use --abi not --json.

Many thanks for pointing out. Have tried it:

ethereal contract send --contract=0xfa28eC7198028438514b49a3CF353BcA5541ce1d --abi=Peepeth.json --call='post(ipfs-hash)' --from=0xDDfC2e10702d8A781727A34D83B3bb3CA94a3E91

Output:

line 1:5 mismatched input 'ipfs' expecting ')' Failed to convert arguments: argument count mismatch: got 0 for 1

How to format it so it can work like in https://justsmartcontracts.dev/#/?

Example:

How to format the --call='post(ipfs-hash)' so it can support post>_ipfsHash (string)?

[mcdee]

As the ABI says, it is a string so needs to be quoted. Something like:

ethereal contract send --contract=0xfa28eC7198028438514b49a3CF353BcA5541ce1d --abi=Peepeth.json --call='post("hashgoeshere")' --from=0xDDfC2e10702d8A781727A34D83B3bb3CA94a3E91
