Create A Space#

substrateApi.tx.spaces.createSpace(parentIdOpt, handleOpt, content, permissionsOpt)

Params	Description
parentIdOpt	don't use now.
handleOpt	disabled now.
content	IpfsContent is a function that returns a substrate like implementation for enum { IPFS: "CID of your content"}.
permissions	advanced options.

Example:

import { IpfsContent } from "@subsocial/types/substrate/classes"
...
const cid = await ipfs.saveContent({
  about: 'Subsocial is an open protocol for decentralized social networks and marketplaces. It`s built with Substrate and IPFS',
  image: 'Qmasp4JHhQWPkEpXLHFhMAQieAH1wtfVRNHWZ5snhfFeBe', // ipfsImageCid = await api.subsocial.ipfs.saveFile(file)
  name: 'Subsocial',
  tags: [ 'subsocial' ]
})

const tx = substrateApi.tx.spaces.createSpace(
  null,
  null,
  IpfsContent(cid),
  null
)
...

Update A Space#

substrateApi.tx.spaces.updateSpace(spaceId: AnySpaceId, update: SpaceUpdateType)

Params	Description
spaceId	ID of the current space.
update	fields available to be updated.

Update properties

Properties	Description
handle?	if enabled. A handle is an alias for a space ID.
content?	IpfsContent is a function that returns a substrate like implementation for enum { IPFS: "CID of your content"}.
hidden?	boolean, if space is hidden from other users.
permissions?	advance opt.

Example:

import {
  IpfsContent, 
  OptionBool,
  SpaceUpdate
} from "@subsocial/types/substrate/classes"

...
const cid = await ipfs.saveContent({
  about: 'Subsocial is an open protocol for decentralized social networks and marketplaces. It`s built with Substrate and IPFS',
  image: 'Qmasp4JHhQWPkEpXLHFhMAQieAH1wtfVRNHWZ5snhfFeBe', 
  name: 'Subsocial updated', // updated field
  tags: ['subsocial']
})

const update = new SpaceUpdate({
  content: IpfsContent(cid),
  hidden: OptionBool(true),
})

const tx = substrateApi.tx.spaces.updateSpace('1', update)
