I'm trying to call a smart contract using the Polkadot JS API (like here). The contract function is really simple, it takes 2 strings: a key and a value as input parameters, then adds the key, value to a hashmap in the contract storage. I can call it normally in the PolkadotJs UI, but when try using the PolkadotJs Javascript API I got this error message:

2022-02-28 00:12:01             DRR: 1010: Invalid Transaction: Transaction would exhaust the block limits

This is my code:

// Required imports
const { ApiPromise, WsProvider } = require("@polkadot/api");
const { ContractPromise } = require("@polkadot/api-contract");
const { keyring } = require("@polkadot/ui-keyring");
keyring.loadAll({ ss58Format: 42, type: "sr25519" });

const abi = require("./freshdi_metadata.json");

async function main() {
    const provider = new WsProvider("ws://127.0.0.1:9944");
    const api = await ApiPromise.create({ provider });

    const contractAddress = "5CbqJvv4VXFNsoK6nj95jD3ajopgJmrB5XP2vXHCvMekxqC6";
    const contract = new ContractPromise(api, abi, contractAddress);

    const alicePair = keyring.createFromUri("//Alice");

    const value = 0;
    const gasLimit = 5 * 1000000000000;

    await contract.tx
        .insertAction({ value, gasLimit }, "key_str","value_str")
        .signAndSend(alicePair, (result) => {
            if (result.status.isInBlock) {
                console.log("in a block");
            } else if (result.status.isFinalized) {
                console.log("finalized");
            }
        });
}

main()
    .catch(console.error)
    .finally(() => process.exit());

    Can you provide the configuration of your runtime, about the parameter following: pub RuntimeBlockLength: BlockLength = BlockLength::max_with_normal_ratio(5 * 1024 * 1024, NORMAL_DISPATCH_RATIO);

  • @ironman_ch_parami, it's the default configuration of substrate

Reset to default

I found the solution, I set the gas limit too high. Thank you all for your support!

I solved it by going to contracts-UI. Then pretending to want to call the function with the parameters. Automatically the real values (max and to-be-used) are computed by the UI. You can just copy it into your code.
