Hi, i’m getting an error when i attempt to upload a slatepack. “There was an error processing your slate file” then it tells me to refer to my wallet software documentation.
The slatefile is named “FILENAME.S1.slatepack”
Sorry if this isn’t a tradogre issue, and also sorry if this problem doesn’t warrant a new thread, or belong in this forum. I understand that this forum is not tradogre technical support, but couldn’t find their contact info on the website. Are they on telegram or something?
My guess:
Is it an extension format problem, where tradogre only takes some other older slatepack extension format? That was my best guess. Thanks.
I think Tradeogre expects the files to contain json slates, not slatepacks. Grinmint OTOH uses slatepack files. The whole damn ecosystem is a mess. There are so many different formats and communication methods that I can’t keep them all straight. Our poor, poor users
Hello, thanks for the responses! I used Niffler to try to send via slatepack. I’m just now noticing that tradogre specifies ‘slate file’ not ‘slatepack’. TIL those are different things…
When i created the slatepack file, i had the option to just copy the slatepack text in niffler…is there a way to copy that text and make it a .json?
There probably is not a way in Niffler. There is a command to do it via grin-wallet, but I don’t know it off the top of my head. Something about unpacking.
Grin++ supports sending json files, but “just use another wallet” is a shitty solution. It’s moments like these that make me embarrassed to be a part of this academic experiment
As david mentioned, grin wallet unpack turns a Slatepack message into JSON format. If you want I can easily do that for you but keep in mind I’d be able to see the transaction details. Otherwise just download grin-wallet and initialize a wallet (no need for a node). Should take 2 minutes, you can follow this guide.
