getLatestEdition

Fetches the newest edition number of a program.

Aleo programs are upgradeable. A program upgrade creates a new edition of the program, and amendments are the upgrade transactions that produced each edition. Use getLatestEdition to find the current edition before fetching a historical version with getProgramByEdition. Queries the connected node, so it hits the network.

Usage​

import { createPublicClient, http } from '@provablehq/veil-core'

const client = createPublicClient({
  transport: http('https://api.provable.com/v2', { network: 'mainnet' }),
})

const edition = await client.getLatestEdition({ programId: 'credits.aleo' })
// 0

Returns​

number

The latest edition number. 0 means the program has never been upgraded.

Parameters​

programId​

  • Type: string

Program whose newest edition to look up, such as "credits.aleo".
