Truffle: `TypeError: Cannot read property 'apply' of undefined` while getting deployed contract

[cckelly]

Upon setting my contract provider I'm getting the following error (with Web3 version 0.20.6):

TypeError: Cannot read property 'apply' of undefined

I've seen the old issues relating to this problem but those just pose workarounds for using Web3 1.0 but it's still happening on an older version. Here's my code:

const contract = require('truffle-contract')
const Proxy = contract(require('./build/contracts/Proxy.json'))
Proxy.setProvider(web3.currentProvider)
const deployed = await Proxy.deployed()

truffle-contract@^3.0.5

@cckelly What's your execution context?

You should be able to write the above as follows:

const Proxy = artifacts.require("Proxy");
const deployed = await Proxy.deployed();

@cgewecke Top level requires, unfortunately the above gives me an issue about not being able to find artifacts.

@cgewecke Met the same issue,

• Execution context: node v10.0.0 (not truffle exec)
• Dependencies:
  "truffle-contract": "^3.0.6",
  "web3": "^1.0.0-beta.34"
• code

// frontend.js
const Web3 = require('web3');
const TruffleContract = require('truffle-contract');
const AdoptionArtifact = require('./build/contracts/Adoption.json');
const web3Provider = new Web3.providers.HttpProvider("http://127.0.0.1:7545");

(async () => {
    const Adoption = TruffleContract(AdoptionArtifact);
    Adoption.setProvider(web3Provider);
    const instance = await Adoption.deployed();
})();

• error info:

$ node frontend.js
TypeError: Cannot read property 'apply' of undefined

@cckelly I was able to get this to work for [email protected] by doing the following (borrowing from @timqian's reproduction case):

• Launch ganache-cli in a separate terminal tab (default port is 8545)
• Run truffle-migrate after adding a network config following the pattern in the docs here

const Web3 = require('web3');
const TruffleContract = require('truffle-contract');
const MetaCoinArtifact = require('./build/contracts/MetaCoin.json');
const web3Provider = new Web3.providers.HttpProvider("http://127.0.0.1:8545");

(async () => {
    const MetaCoin = TruffleContract(MetaCoinArtifact);
    MetaCoin.setProvider(web3Provider);
    const instance = await MetaCoin.deployed();
    console.log('instance.address --> ' + instance.address)
})();

Output

Users-MacBook-Air:metacoin cgewecke$ node script.js
instance.address --> 0xe529baf3f7205cf00b5dd14e9ccaf12339707d41

@timqian In your case I think the issue might be a web3 mismatch. I will look into publishing the new work we've done on truffle-contract upgrading to web3 1.0 separately this morning. It should already by available in truffle exec if you install truffle@next.

Thanks to both of you for reporting.

@cgewecke Awesome thanks for your help, I'll give this a shot and report back

[cckelly]

@cgewecke I believe this is old and can be closed.

Closing this issue as it seems to have been resolved. Feel free to re-open if I'm mistaken.

// frontend.js
const Web3 = require('web3');
const TruffleContract = require('truffle-contract');
const AdoptionArtifact = require('./build/contracts/Adoption.json');
const web3Provider = new Web3.providers.HttpProvider("http://127.0.0.1:7545");

(async () => {

I am trying the code .
const Web3 = require('web3');
const TruffleContract = require('truffle-contract');
const AdoptionArtifact = require('./build/contracts/BaseApp.json');
const web3Provider = new Web3.providers.HttpProvider("http://127.0.0.1:7545");

(async () => {
const Adoption = TruffleContract(AdoptionArtifact);
Adoption.setProvider(web3Provider);
const instance = await Adoption.deployed();
const cst = "bce"
const content = "gfdgdggdfgdg"
const content2 = "dvcvcvxcvcx"
console.log(cst,content,content2)
await instance.createEntry(cst,content,content2)

})();
giving me an error
