put

put is the function that nodes will use to inject transactions into the network. It takes the transaction data as its argument and Shardus handles all of the internal peer-to-peer gossip communication between the nodes to record the transaction.

💡

You need some sort of /inject endpoint for clients to send POST requests to nodes. Always use registerExternalPost to create this endpoint for your application.

// API
dapp.registerExternalPost(
  'inject',
  async (req, res): Promise<void> => {
    try {
      const result = dapp.put(req.body)
      res.json({ result })
    } catch (error) {
      dapp.log(error)
      res.json({ error })
    }
  },
)
