This section covers how to fetch follows on the Subsocial blockchain.

Check if a user is following a space or account​

isSpaceFollower​

This checks if an account is following a particular space.

api.blockchain.isSpaceFollower(myAddress: AnyAccountId, spaceId: AnySpaceId): Promise<boolean>

Example: 

const isFollower = await api.blockchain.isSpaceFollower('3osmnRNnrcScHsgkTJH1xyBF5kGjpbWHsGrqM31BJpy4vwn8', idToBn('1'))

isAccountFollower​

This checks if an account is following a particular account.

api.blockchain.isAccountFollower(myAddress: AnyAccountId, followedAddress: AnyAccountId): Promise<boolean>
const isFollower = await api.blockchain.isAccountFollower('3osmnRNnrcScHsgkTJH1xyBF5kGjpbWHsGrqM31BJpy4vwn8', idToBn('1'))

🆃 AnyAccountId: AccountId | string

🅸 AnySpaceId: SpaceId | BN


Find and load a list of space followers​

spaceIdsFollowedByAccount​

Get an array of space IDs that an account is following.

api.blockchain.spaceIdsFollowedByAccount(account: AccountId)

Example: 

import { bnsToIds } from '@subsocial/utils'

const res = await api.blockchain.spaceIdsFollowedByAccount('3osmnRNnrcScHsgkTJH1xyBF5kGjpbWHsGrqM31BJpy4vwn8')
const followedSpaceIds = bnsToIds(res) // array of Space ids

spaceFollowers​

Get an array of account IDs that follow a space.

substrateApi.query.spaceFollows.spaceFollowers(spaceId: SpaceId)

Example:

const followersBySpaceId = await substrateApi.query.spaceFollows.spaceFollowers('1')

Find and load the list of followers and followings​

accountFollowers​

Get an array of account IDs that follow an account.

const substrateApi = await api.substrateApi
const res = await substrateApi.query.accountFollows.accountFollowers('3osmnRNnrcScHsgkTJH1xyBF5kGjpbWHsGrqM31BJpy4vwn8')
const accountFollowersIds = res

accountsFollowedByAccount​

Get an array of account IDs that an account is following.

const substrateApi = await api.substrateApi
const res = await substrateApi.query.accountFollows.accountsFollowedByAccount('3osmnRNnrcScHsgkTJH1xyBF5kGjpbWHsGrqM31BJpy4vwn8')
const accountsFollowedByAccountIds = res
