📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

These changes update the visual styling of wallet connection and status UI components with gradients, glows, and shadows, and refactor the Soroban contract invocation logic to use stellar-sdk with transaction simulation and explicit error handling.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
UI/Styling Updates
frontend/components/WalletConnectModal.tsx, frontend/components/Web3StatusBar.tsx
Modal content container and header restyled with teal-tinted gradients, increased blur, and custom glows. Connect button given new gradient backgrounds with hover effects. Web3StatusBar transformed from flex row to card-like pill with gradient backdrop, pinging connection dot, and badge-styled indicators for address, testnet, and active transactions.
Soroban Contract Invocation Logic
frontend/context/walletContext.tsx
invokeSorobanContract refactored to use stellar-sdk instead of soroban-client. Now includes transaction simulation to obtain execution metadata, transaction assembly, Freighter signing, and Soroban RPC submission with explicit error handling for simulation and send failures.

229-247: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

signedEnvelopeXDR as unknown as Transaction won't work as a fallback.

Horizon.Server#submitTransaction expects a Transaction/FeeBumpTransaction instance, not a raw XDR string. Casting the string through unknown silences TypeScript but will fail at runtime (Horizon calls .toEnvelope() / .signatures on the argument). If the first branch succeeded at parsing the XDR via TransactionBuilder.fromXDR, there is no realistic case where the same XDR would then need to be submitted as a string — remove the fallback and let the original error propagate with context.

🔧 Proposed simplification
-    try {
-      const txObj = TransactionBuilder.fromXDR(signedEnvelopeXDR, NETWORK_PASSPHRASE);
-      const res = await server.submitTransaction(txObj);
-      return res;
-    } catch (err) {
-      try {
-        const res = await server.submitTransaction(signedEnvelopeXDR as unknown as Transaction);
-        return res;
-      } catch (e) {
-        console.error("submitTransaction failed", e);
-        throw e;
-      }
-    }
+    const txObj = TransactionBuilder.fromXDR(signedEnvelopeXDR, NETWORK_PASSPHRASE);

+    } catch (err) {

152-175: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Replace ad-hoc window probing with @stellar/freighter-api package for stable, reliable Freighter integration.

The current code relies on unsafe window.freighter* detection (lines 152–155, 163) which fails silently on browser/version combinations where Freighter doesn't inject globals. The official @stellar/freighter-api package provides a stable, typed API (isConnected, requestAccess, getAddress, signTransaction, etc.) and is the recommended integration path.

Additionally, line 165 contains a logic error: the ternary condition freighter.getPublicKey ? freighter.getPublicKey() : freighter.getPublicKey() invokes the same call in both branches, so the guard has no effect. Any version without that method will throw TypeError: freighter.getPublicKey is not a function.

183-211: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Fix Freighter API calls: incorrect argument format and non-existent fallback methods.

The signTransaction call at line 192 passes NETWORK_PASSPHRASE as a positional string argument, but @stellar/freighter-api expects an options object: signTransaction(xdr, { networkPassphrase }). Additionally, the code checks for res.signed_envelope_xdr (lines 194, 199, 204) but the API returns { signedTxXdr, signerAddress } — the property name is signedTxXdr, not signed_envelope_xdr.

The fallback methods at lines 197–204 (.sign() and .requestSignTransaction()) are not part of the official Freighter API and should be removed. Use only the documented @stellar/freighter-api signTransaction method with the correct signature.

Promise<any> and args?: any[] erase safety at the public API boundary. For Soroban calls specifically, the arg type should be xdr.ScVal[] (see companion comment on Line 249), and the return type should be SorobanRpc.Api.SendTransactionResponse (or Horizon.HorizonApi.SubmitTransactionResponse for sendXLM).

- Around line 249-281: invokeSorobanContract has three issues: contract.call is
being passed raw JS values — change the args type to xdr.ScVal[] and require
callers to convert values (use nativeToScVal/xdr.ScVal helpers) so each
parameter is an xdr.ScVal when calling contract.call(method, ...args);
simulatedTx error checking should use the SDK helper
SorobanRpc.Api.isSimulationError(simulatedTx) instead of manual property checks;
and assembling the final tx must call SorobanRpc.assembleTransaction(tx,
simulatedTx).build() (not TransactionBuilder.assembleTransaction with a
networkPassphrase arg). Also update imports to bring in SorobanRpc, xdr,
nativeToScVal (and ensure you construct the RPC client with new
SorobanRpc.Server(SOROBAN_RPC, { allowHttp: true })) so the corrected symbols
are available.

stellar-sdk 10.4.0 contract.call xdr.ScVal parameters

💡 Result:

In stellar-sdk version 10.4.0 (specifically @stellar/stellar-sdk), the Contract.call method is used to invoke a Soroban smart contract function and returns an xdr.Operation for InvokeHostFunctionOp. Method signature: contract.call(method: string, ...params: xdr.ScVal[]): xdr.Operation Parameters: - method: string - Name of the contract method to call. - ...params: xdr.ScVal[] - Variable number of xdr.ScVal arguments to pass to the function. Each parameter must be a properly constructed xdr.ScVal instance matching the contract function's expected input types. Usage example: const contract = new Contract("CA3D5KRYM6CB7OWQ6TWYRR3Z4T7GNZLKERYNZGGA5SOAOPIFY6YQGAXE"); const op = contract.call("increment", xdr.ScVal.scvU32(5)); The SDK provides nativeToScVal and related utilities (via Contract.Spec) to convert JavaScript native values (numbers, strings, objects, arrays, etc.) to xdr.ScVal instances. For example: - Numbers: nativeToScVal(123, {type: 'u32'}) → xdr.ScVal.scvU32(123) - Addresses: Address.fromString("G...").toScVal - Strings: nativeToScVal("hello") → xdr.ScVal.scvString("hello") - Maps/Vecs: Automatically converted from objects/arrays with optional type hints. This API has remained stable across versions including 10.4.0, as confirmed by the official documentation and changelog. For full conversion details, see the scval.js source which handles type inference and validation.

stellar-sdk 10.4.0 TransactionBuilder.assembleTransaction signature networkPassphrase

💡 Result:

In @stellar/stellar-sdk version 10.4.0, TransactionBuilder does not have a direct method called assembleTransaction. The assembleTransaction function is a static utility in the rpc module that takes a raw Transaction or FeeBumpTransaction and a simulation response (Api.SimulateTransactionResponse or Api.RawSimulateTransactionResponse), returning a new TransactionBuilder with applied Soroban auth, resources, and adjusted fee. The networkPassphrase is preserved from the input raw transaction via TransactionBuilder.cloneFrom(raw, {..., networkPassphrase: raw.networkPassphrase}). Signature: assembleTransaction(raw: Transaction | FeeBumpTransaction, simulation: Api.SimulateTransactionResponse | Api.RawSimulateTransactionResponse): TransactionBuilder Usage example from source: const txnBuilder = TransactionBuilder.cloneFrom(raw, { fee: classicFeeNum.toString, sorobanData: success.transactionData.build, networkPassphrase: raw.networkPassphrase }); This is used in Soroban transaction preparation after simulateTransaction, typically via SorobanServer.prepareTransaction which internally calls it. The networkPassphrase ensures signatures are valid for the correct network (e.g., "Public Global Stellar Network ; September 2015" for mainnet).

🌐 Web query:

stellar-sdk 10.4.0 SorobanRpc.Api.isSimulationError

💡 Result:

SorobanRpc.Api.isSimulationError is a static method in the @stellar/stellar-sdk JavaScript library (available in version 10.4.0 and later) that checks if a Soroban RPC simulateTransaction response indicates an error. It returns true if the simulation failed (e.g., the response has an 'error' field), and false otherwise. This method is used in typical Soroban transaction workflows to validate simulation results before assembling and submitting transactions. For example: if (SorobanRpc.Api.isSimulationError(sim)) { throw sim.error; // or handle the error } It pairs with related methods like SorobanRpc.Api.isSimulationSuccess (checks for successful simulation) and SorobanRpc.Api.isSimulationRestore (checks if footprint restoration is needed). The method is part of the rpc.Api namespace, imported as: import { SorobanRpc } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'; Note: In newer SDK versions (post-v12), the import path may be '@stellar/stellar-sdk/rpc' for the Api, but the functionality remains the same. Version 10.4.0 specifically includes Soroban RPC support via updates to stellar-base.

🌐 Web query:

stellar-sdk 10.4.0 SorobanRpc namespace import rpc module

💡 Result:

In stellar-sdk version 10.4.0, the Soroban RPC functionality is accessed via the SorobanRpc namespace. To import the rpc module (which provides the Soroban RPC Server, API types, and helpers like assembleTransaction), use: import { SorobanRpc } from 'stellar-sdk'; Then destructure as needed: const { Server, Api, assembleTransaction } = SorobanRpc; Example usage: const server = new SorobanRpc.Server('https://soroban-testnet.stellar.org'); This structure was established around v11.0.0 but was present in v10.4.0 per the changelog mentioning v10.4.0 and migration guides referencing SorobanRpc. In later versions (post-v11), SorobanRpc was deprecated in favor of a top-level rpc export: import { rpc } from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'; Note: The package transitioned to @stellar/stellar-sdk scoped name starting around v11+, but v10.4.0 uses the unscoped stellar-sdk. Always check your bundler for tree-shaking with named imports.

stellar-sdk 10.4.0 "new Server" SOROBAN_RPC vs SorobanRpc.Server

💡 Result:

In the stellar-sdk JavaScript/TypeScript library (likely @stellar/stellar-sdk, as the legacy 'stellar-sdk' package reached v13.x), the primary way to create a Soroban RPC client (now Stellar RPC) is via new Server(url, options), where Server is from the rpc module. SorobanRpc.Server refers to the Server class in the SorobanRpc namespace, used in older or specific contexts like the deprecated js-soroban-client library. Example: new SorobanRpc.Server('http://localhost:8000/soroban/rpc'). "SOROBAN_RPC" likely refers to the Soroban RPC protocol or environment variable/constant, while new Server is the constructor call for the client. No specific changes or differences are noted in version 10.4.0 (which exists in the old stellar-sdk package per changelogs), as RPC client usage has remained consistent: const server = new StellarSdk.rpc.Server(rpcUrl); or similar import. Official docs confirm new Server(serverURL) for RPC connections, with options like {allowHttp: true} for local dev. Soroban RPC was renamed to Stellar RPC in late 2024, but SDK classes retained naming. Usage example: import * as StellarSdk from '@stellar/stellar-sdk'; const server = new StellarSdk.rpc.Server('https://soroban-testnet.stellar.org'); No evidence of breaking changes to this API in recent versions; it's the standard constructor.

Fix critical API breakage in Soroban transaction flow.

  1. contract.call() requires xdr.ScVal[] arguments (Line 265): Currently passing any[] directly. The method signature is contract.call(method: string, ...params: xdr.ScVal[]). Each argument must be a properly constructed xdr.ScVal instance (e.g., xdr.ScVal.scvU32(5) for numbers). Raw JS values will fail simulation. Change parameter type from any[] to xdr.ScVal[] and require callers to pre-convert using SDK utilities like nativeToScVal.

  2. assembleTransaction() call is broken (Line 281): The method is in the rpc module, not TransactionBuilder. Correct signature is SorobanRpc.assembleTransaction(tx, simulatedTx) (two arguments only; networkPassphrase is implicitly preserved from the transaction). The current three-argument call will throw at runtime. Replace TransactionBuilder.assembleTransaction(tx, NETWORK_PASSPHRASE, simulatedTx as any).build() with SorobanRpc.assembleTransaction(tx, simulatedTx).build().

  3. Use SorobanRpc.Api.isSimulationError() for error checking (Line 272): Replace the manual check with the SDK's discriminated union helper: if (SorobanRpc.Api.isSimulationError(simulatedTx)).

Also update imports to use SorobanRpc namespace: import { SorobanRpc, ... } from "stellar-sdk" and use new SorobanRpc.Server(SOROBAN_RPC, { allowHttp: true }) instead of plain new Server().

         .addOperation(contract.call(functionName, ...args))
         .setTimeout(TimeoutInfinite)
         .build();

       const simulatedTx = await rpcServer.simulateTransaction(tx);
-      if ("error" in simulatedTx && simulatedTx.error) {

         throw new Error(`Simulation failed: ${simulatedTx.error}`);
       }

-      // Assemble transaction with simulation data
-      if (!simulatedTx.transactionData) {
-        throw new Error("Simulation failed: missing transactionData");
-      }
-
-      tx = TransactionBuilder.assembleTransaction(tx, NETWORK_PASSPHRASE, simulatedTx as any).build();
+      tx = SorobanRpc.assembleTransaction(tx, simulatedTx).build();

Also update imports (top of file):

-import { Server, TransactionBuilder, Networks, Operation, Asset } from "stellar-sdk";
+import { SorobanRpc, TransactionBuilder, Networks, Operation, Asset } from "stellar-sdk";

And import Contract and TimeoutInfinite statically or ensure they come from the right namespace.

In `@frontend/context/walletContext.tsx` around lines 249 - 281,
invokeSorobanContract has three issues: contract.call is being passed raw JS
values — change the args type to xdr.ScVal[] and require callers to convert
values (use nativeToScVal/xdr.ScVal helpers) so each parameter is an xdr.ScVal
when calling contract.call(method, ...args); simulatedTx error checking should
use the SDK helper SorobanRpc.Api.isSimulationError(simulatedTx) instead of
manual property checks; and assembling the final tx must call
SorobanRpc.assembleTransaction(tx, simulatedTx).build() (not
TransactionBuilder.assembleTransaction with a networkPassphrase arg). Also
update imports to bring in SorobanRpc, xdr, nativeToScVal (and ensure you
construct the RPC client with new SorobanRpc.Server(SOROBAN_RPC, { allowHttp:
true })) so the corrected symbols are available.
