Function ic_cdk::api::call::call_with_payment128

pub fn call_with_payment128<T: ArgumentEncoder, R: for<'a> ArgumentDecoder<'a>>(
    id: Principal,
    method: &str,
    args: T,
    cycles: u128,
) -> impl Future<Output = CallResult<R>> + Send + Sync

Performs an asynchronous call to another canister and pay cycles (in u128) at the same time.

Example

Assuming that the callee canister has following interface:

service : {
    add_user: (name: text) -> (nat64);
}

It can be called:

async fn call_add_user() -> u64 {
    let (user_id,) = call_with_payment128(callee_canister(), "add_user", ("Alice".to_string(),), 1_000_000u128).await.unwrap();
    user_id
}

Note

• Both argument and return types are tuples even if it has only one value, e.g (user_id,), ("Alice".to_string(),).
• The type annotation on return type is required. Or the return type can be inferred from the context.
• The asynchronous call must be awaited in order for the inter-canister call to be made.
• If the reply payload is not a valid encoding of the expected type T, the call results in RejectionCode::CanisterError error.
