contract State

Review the Javascript that defines queryState.js

Retrieve a contracts state#

Now we have called a transition and that has set some mutable state on our contract, we can fetch this value and use it for ensuring that the correct value is being returned. The contract state currently says our state for total_button_clicks is the value 1, but we need to pull that value into the backend.

...// webhook to listen to events emited back to clientsconst websocket = "wss://dev-ws.zilliqa.com"// mutable state field name to monitorconst state_field_to_monitor = "total_count_clicks"...
// Listen for events from a contract - errors aren't caughtasync function ListenForEvents(deployed_contract_base_16) {    const subscriber = zilliqa.subscriptionBuilder.buildEventLogSubscriptions(      websocket,      {        addresses: [            deployed_contract_base_16        ],      },    );
    console.log("Listener started");      subscriber.emitter.on(MessageType.EVENT_LOG, async (event) => {        console.log('get new event log: ', JSON.stringify(event)); // this will emit 2/3 times before event emitted
        const current_button_click_count = await zilliqa.blockchain.getSmartContractSubState(            deployed_contract_base_16,            state_field_to_monitor          );        console.log(current_button_click_count.result);    });      await subscriber.start();}

We add this method to our implementation

// Application Definition// DEPLOY a contract, // SEND a transaction// LISTEN to events emitted// MONITOR mutable state async function DeploySendListenMonitor(){    deployed_contract_base_16 = await DeployButtonContract();    bech_32_bystr = toBech32Address(deployed_contract_base_16);    console.log(`got ${bech_32_bystr} from ${deployed_contract_base_16}`)
    await Promise.all([        ListenForEvents(deployed_contract_base_16),        PressTheButton(bech_32_bystr)    ]);}
