Read Contract with Othent

Read from a smart contract with Othent

​Othent is library facilitating the onboarding of users from web2 to web3 through account abstraction. The authentication protocol offers a number of "wallet-less" functions for the same. Users can connect and interact with applications using web2 technologies like email accounts with the help of Othent.
The readContractWOthent function enables interacting with a deployed contract based on the input parameters.
Ensure you have pop-ups enabled in your browser for the URL you'll be using this function in.
Basic Syntax
The function is called as follows:
import { readContractWOthent } from 'arweavekit/contract'
​
const readResult = await readContractWOthent({params});
Input Parameters
The following params are available for this function and they must be passed in as an object:
apiId: string : Use of any Othent function requires an apiId which can be fetched from othent.io. Towards the bottom of the linked page, the Get your API ID button provides the same.
contractTxId: string : The contractTxId points to the contract that is requested to be read.
Example
const readResult = await readContractWOthent({
  apiId: string,
  contractTxId: '2W9NoIJM1SuaFUaSOJsui_5lD_NvCHTjez5HKe2SjYU'
});
This reads the current state of the contract whose id is specified as input.
Returned Data
The function call returns the following data:
state: object : The state is the information/ data stored with a contract. The read call returns the latest version of the state for the specified contract as reflected on the network.
errors: object : The errors object consists of metadata for any errors that may have occurred returning the read result or previous unsuccessful interactions with the contract.
