Icon LinkInter-Contract Calls with the SDK

This guide explains how to use the SDK to execute a contract call where one contract interacts with another contract. We will use a simple scenario involving a SimpleToken contract and a TokenDepositor contract.

Icon LinkSimpleToken and TokenDepositor Contracts

In this example, we have a SimpleToken contract representing a basic token contract capable of holding balances for different addresses. We also have a TokenDepositor contract that deposits tokens into the SimpleToken contract.

Icon LinkContract: SimpleToken

Here's a simple token contract that allows holding balances: 

contract;
 
use ::simple_token_abi::SimpleToken;
 
use std::hash::*;
storage {
    balances: StorageMap<b256, u64> = StorageMap {},
}
impl SimpleToken for Contract {
    #[storage(read, write)]
    fn deposit(address: b256, amount: u64) {
        let current_balance = storage.balances.get(address).try_read().unwrap_or(0);
        storage.balances.insert(address, current_balance + amount);
    }
    #[storage(read)]
    fn get_balance(address: b256) -> u64 {
        let balance = storage.balances.get(address).try_read().unwrap_or(0);
        balance
    }
}

Icon LinkContract: TokenDepositor

The TokenDepositor contract imports the SimpleToken contract and calls its deposit function to deposit tokens: 

contract;
 
use std::auth::msg_sender;
 
use ::simple_token_abi::SimpleToken;
 
abi TokenDepositor {
    fn deposit_to_simple_token(contract_id: b256, amount: u64);
}
 
impl TokenDepositor for Contract {
    fn deposit_to_simple_token(contract_id: b256, amount: u64) {
        let simple_token_contract = abi(SimpleToken, contract_id);
 
        let sender = msg_sender().unwrap();
 
        let address: b256 = match sender {
            Identity::Address(sender_param) => sender_param.bits(),
            _ => revert(0),
        };
 
        simple_token_contract.deposit(address, amount);
    }
}

Icon LinkInter-contract calls using the SDK

Once both contracts are deployed, we can use the SDK to make the TokenDepositor contract to call the SimpleToken contract. 

import { Provider, Wallet } from 'fuels';
 
import { LOCAL_NETWORK_URL, WALLET_PVT_KEY } from '../env';
import { SimpleTokenFactory, TokenDepositorFactory } from '../typegend';
 
const provider = await Provider.create(LOCAL_NETWORK_URL);
const wallet = Wallet.fromPrivateKey(WALLET_PVT_KEY, provider);
 
const { waitForResult: waitForSimpleToken } =
  await SimpleTokenFactory.deploy(wallet);
 
const { contract: simpleToken } = await waitForSimpleToken();
 
const { waitForResult: waitForTokenDepositor } =
  await TokenDepositorFactory.deploy(wallet);
 
const { contract: tokenDepositor } = await waitForTokenDepositor();
 
const amountToDeposit = 70;
const call1 = await simpleToken.functions
  .get_balance(wallet.address.toB256())
  .call();
 
const { value: initialBalance } = await call1.waitForResult();
 
const call2 = await tokenDepositor.functions
  .deposit_to_simple_token(simpleToken.id.toB256(), amountToDeposit)
  .addContracts([simpleToken])
  .call();
 
await call2.waitForResult();
 
const call3 = await simpleToken.functions
  .get_balance(wallet.address.toB256())
  .call();
 
const { value: finalBalance } = await call3.waitForResult();

Pay attention to the method addContracts called by the TokenDepositor contract. This method accepts an array of instances of deployed contracts. Without calling this method, the inter-contract call will not work.
