This changes the
contracts_callRPC so that more information is returned. The following changes are made:gas_consumedis returned in any case and not only on success.DispatchErroris returned instead of nothing. Can be used by the UI to pre-run a contract call and show the user what is going wrong.debug_messageis introduced that can be used to return dynamic information. In the future, the plan is to use the field to allow outputting more precise error messages and to support println debugging. Those messages will only be collected when called by RPC and will introduce no overhead when executed as transaction. This is currently unused and will return an empty string.This will need changes in polkadot.js API @jacogr
Also I needed to derive
DeserializeforDispatchErrorbecause that is a requirement to use it in an RPC even though it is only used as a result.
