I am facing a particular issue:
I have developed a smart contract on Remix :
pragma solidity ^0.5.1;
contract anotherTry {
function Hello() external pure returns (string memory) {
return "Hello World !!!";
}
}
After compiling it, I extracted its WEB3DEPLOY data and integrated it into my Geth console. Using the contract address received and the ABI from the Remix website, I implemented them as follows :
//addr = contract address obtained from Geth console
//abit = ABI of the contract
//account = a valid random account address (I even tried with addr... perhaps it might work)
let MyContract = new web3.eth.Contract(abi, addr);
MyContract.methods.Hello().send({ from: account }).then(receipt => { console.log("SUCCESS"); });
The issue lies in the fact that no message is being returned, rather only a circular structure with functions and other content when I make an attempt to:
console.log(MyContract.methods);
Any insights into why I am unable to establish a connection with my smart contract? I am utilizing NodeJS with web3 1.0.0 & Geth
