waitFor	WaitFor	false	wait for block inclusion or finalization
account	KeyringPair	false	account that will send and sign the transaction
options	SignerOptions	true	used to overwrite existing signer options

Returns

On failure, a reason of failure is returned. On Success, Nominate transaction data, transaction hash and block hash is returned.

Minimal example

You will need to set up the dev enviornment required to run this example. For instructions, check out our docs here.
If you're sending an extrinsic (i.e conducting a transaction) you will need to replace the demo seed phrase with your own seed phrase. The rest of the code should work as is.

Inside your-file-name.ts, add the following code:

avail-js

import { Keyring } from "@polkadot/api"
import { SDK } from "avail-js-sdk"
import { WaitFor } from "avail-js-sdk/sdk/transactions"
import { BN } from "@polkadot/util"
 
const main = async () => {
  const providerEndpoint = "wss://turing-rpc.avail.so/ws";
  const sdk = await SDK.New(providerEndpoint)
 
  const Alice = 'This is a random seed phrase please do not use it';
  const account = new Keyring({ type: "sr25519" }).addFromUri(Alice)
  const targets = [
    "5GNJqTPyNqANBkUVMN1LPPrxXnFouWXoe2wNSmmEoLctxiZY", // Alice Stash
    "5FHneW46xGXgs5mUiveU4sbTyGBzmstUspZC92UhjJM694ty", // Bob
  ]
 
  const result = await sdk.tx.staking.nominate(targets, WaitFor.BlockInclusion, account)
  if (result.isErr) {
    console.log(result.reason)
    process.exit(1)
  }
 
  console.log("TxDataTargets=" + result.txData.targets)
  console.log("TxHash=" + result.txHash + ", BlockHash=" + result.blockHash)
 
  process.exit()
}
main()

Run the code using:

ts-node your-file-name.ts
