Execute Batch Transactions

Code repository

All the contracts, sample metadata, and scripts of this guide are available in the lukso-playground repository.

Complex batch transfer interactions are possible with Universal Profile
Universal Profiles support natively batch transactions to perform complex transfer scenarios. Like transferring LYX or multiple tokens and NFTs to different recipient addresses.

A Universal Profile contains a function called executeBatch(...) to perform batch transaction. With some thinking, we will see that this function can enables a countless number of creative use cases. Below are some useful and simple example code snippets covered, around transferring LYX, tokens and NFTs to one or multiple different addresses.

Transfer Examples​

Transfer LYX to different recipients​

Transfer LYX to multiple addresses

import { ethers, hexlify, toUtf8Bytes } from 'ethers';
import { OPERATION_TYPES } from '@lukso/lsp-smart-contracts';

import UniversalProfileArtifacts from '@lukso/lsp-smart-contracts/artifacts/UniversalProfile.json';

const provider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(window.lukso);
const universalProfile = await provider.getSigner();
console.log('UP address: ', universalProfile);

const upContract = new Contract(
  universalProfile, // Universal Profile address
  UniversalProfileArtifacts.abi,
  universalProfile, // signer that will sign the transaction
);

const operationTypes = [
  OPERATION_TYPES.CALL, // 0
  OPERATION_TYPES.CALL, // 0
  OPERATION_TYPES.CALL, // 0
];

const lyxRecipients = ['0x...', '0x...', '0x...'];

const lyxAmounts = [parseEther('1'), parseEther('2'), parseEther('3')];

const data = [
  '0x', // transferring LYX without any data
  hexlify(toUtf8Bytes('Here is a tip, buy yourself a coffee!')), // you can also add any data as utf8-hex in the LYX transfer
  hexlify(toUtf8Bytes('Paying back my debt I owe you')),
];

await upContract.executeBatch(operationTypes, lyxRecipients, lyxAmounts, data);

Transfer 3 x tokens to the same recipient​

Transfer multiple tokens to the same address

import { ethers } from 'ethers';
import { OPERATION_TYPES } from '@lukso/lsp-smart-contracts';

import UniversalProfileArtifacts from '@lukso/lsp-smart-contracts/artifacts/UniversalProfile.json';
import LSP7DigitalAssetArtifact from '@lukso/lsp-smart-contracts/artifacts/LSP7DigitalAsset.json';

const provider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(window.lukso);
const universalProfile = await provider.getSigner();

  universalProfile,

  universalProfile,
);

// We do not need to create an instance for each contracts, they are all LSP7
const lsp7Token = new Contract(FABS_TOKEN, LSP7DigitalAssetArtifact.abi);

const recipient = '0x...'; // address that will receive the tokens

const transferFabsCalldata = await lsp7Token.transfer.populateTransaction(
  universalProfile, // from
  '0x...', // to
  parseEther('10'), // amount
  true, // force transfer
  '0x', // data
);

const transferChillCalldata = await lsp7Token.transfer.populateTransaction(
  universalProfile,
  recipient,
  parseEther('20'),
  true,
  '0x',
);

const transferSoonCalldata = await lsp7Token.transfer.populateTransaction(
  universalProfile,
  recipient,
  parseEther('30'),
  true,
  '0x',
);

const operationTypes = [
  OPERATION_TYPES.CALL,
  OPERATION_TYPES.CALL,
  OPERATION_TYPES.CALL,
];

const tokenContractsToCall = [FABS_TOKEN, CHILL_TOKEN, SOON_TOKEN];

const values = [parseEther('0'), parseEther('0'), parseEther('0')];

const calldatas = [
  transferFabsCalldata.data,
  transferChillCalldata.data,
  transferSoonCalldata.data,
];

await upContract.executeBatch(
  operationTypes,

Mixing LYX, Tokens, NFT and recipient addresses​

Illustration transfer LYX, tokens and NFT to different recipients

This example shows how to transfer three different assets to different addresses in a single transaction. For instance, from our 🆙, we can:

  • send LYX to Alice.
  • send some LSP7 tokens to Bob.
  • send an LSP8 NFT to Carol.
import { ethers } from 'ethers';
import { OPERATION_TYPES } from '@lukso/lsp-smart-contracts';

import UniversalProfileArtifacts from '@lukso/lsp-smart-contracts/artifacts/UniversalProfile.json';
import LSP7DigitalAssetArtifact from '@lukso/lsp-smart-contracts/artifacts/LSP7DigitalAsset.json';
import LSP8IdentifiableDigitalAssetArtifact from '@lukso/lsp-smart-contracts/artifacts/LSP8IdentifiableDigitalAsset.json';

const provider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(window.lukso);
const universalProfile = await provider.getSigner();

// Addresses that will receive some digital assets
const lyxRecipient = '0x...';
const tokenRecipient = '0x...';
const nftRecipient = '0x...';

const upContract = new Contract(
  universalProfile,
  UniversalProfileArtifacts.abi,
  universalProfile,
);

// List of Tokens and NFT contracts
const CHILL_TOKEN = '0x5B8B0E44D4719F8A328470DcCD3746BFc73d6B14';

const PANGOLYX_NFT = '0xCDD480a4d3a9961be62eF40b01bf86175b341fBB';
const pangolyxTokenId =
  '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000164';

// Create instances of the Token and NFT contracts
const lsp7Token = new Contract(CHILL_TOKEN, LSP7DigitalAssetArtifact.abi);

const lsp8Nft = new Contract(
  PANGOLYX_NFT,
  LSP8IdentifiableDigitalAssetArtifact.abi,
);

// Create the calldatas that will be passed to the `data` field of `executeBatch`
const transferTokensCalldata = await lsp7Token.transfer.populateTransaction(
  universalProfile,
  tokenRecipient,
  parseEth('100'), // send 100 tokens
  true,
  '0x',
);

const transferNftCalldata = await lsp8Nft.transfer.populateTransaction(
  universalProfile, // from
  nftRecipient, // to
  pangolyxTokenId, // bytes32 tokenId
  true, // force
  '0x', // data
);

await upContract.executeBatch(
  [OPERATION_TYPES.CALL, OPERATION_TYPES.CALL, OPERATION_TYPES.CALL],
  [lyxRecipient, lsp7Token.address, lsp8Nft.address],
  [
    parseEther('10'), // send 10 LYX
    0,
    0,
  ],
  [
    '0x', // no data sent when transferring LYX
    transferTokensCalldata.data, // calldata of `LSP7.transfer(address,address,uint256,bool,bytes)
    transferNftCalldata.data, // calldata of `LSP7.transfer(address,address,bytes32,bool,bytes)
  ],
  {
    from: universalProfile,
  },
);

Contract Deployment Examples​

The executeBatch function is also useful to perform any action on a contract after deploying it from a 🆙.

Deploy a Token + Set Metadata​

Info

For demonstration purpose, the code below deploys a LSP7Mintable, a preset token contract available in the @lukso/lsp-smart-contracts package.

Feel free to use the bytecode of any custom or extended token contract you have created. You can then adjust any extra constructor parameters as per your needs.

This code shows how to set the metadata of a LSP7 Digital Asset contract while deploying it. The batch will contain two actions that will run successively:

  1. deploy the token contract with some deployment parameters (token name, symbol, etc...).

For this, we will encode the constructor parameters used when deploying the token contract. and then generate the bytecode for the contract deployment.

  1. set the metadata on the token contract.

For this we will first encode the LSP4Metadata using the erc725.js library. We will then generate the payload to call setData on the token contract using this encoded parameter.

"How can we set the token metadata if we don't know the deployed token address yet?"

We have to mimic deploying the contract from the UP using staticCall. This will not dispatch the transaction return the future token contract address.

The second call in the executeBatch() function will then use the previously generated contract address from the staticCall in order to set the metadata.
