I'm looking to subscribe to events emitted from a contract.

I am currently creating a storage key for System Events, subscribing to it and filtering the events to get the one emitted by the contract I am interested in.

Is there a better way to subscribe to the events of a specific contract?

You can use subquery event handler to capture the desired events. It supports filtering based on Modules (the contracts module in this case) and Methods.

This filters all events of all contracts. But to filter the events for a specific contract, you'll have to subscribe to the contract's entity in the schema, and filter this subscription with the contract address

  • Thank you. But, I'm building a Go client and am currently working on extending this github.com/torusresearch/go-substrate-rpc-client for contracts.

  • I also tried to use Contracts as the module, it doesn't have the storage for Events

  • I'd use centrifuge rather than that fork as it looks like more dev is on centrifuge's original though I can't see ink support commits - maybe ask that question in that projects github issue asking for support?

  • Sorry, I meant to include Centrifuge's repo there. That's our fork where we're working on extending it to support contracts. But, my question is more related towards the RPC support in substrate itself. I mean, if substrate has something for it, I could use it irrespective of the library.
