Document metadata format
We should document the metadata format for a stable 3.0 release. Without documentation the hurdle to build third party tools (like different UI's or CLI tools) is too high.
Ideally the ink-docs would contain a section on the metadata as well, maybe linking to more extensive documentation in the ink_metadata crate?
Once we have this documentation we should also communicate it to stakeholders (Patract, etc.).
@Robbepop Hi, I found polkadot apps started to use new metadata format(My metadata cannot be uploaded to apps).
PortableRegistry: 3: Error extracting {"path":[],"params":[],"def":{"composite":{"fields":[{"name":"inner","type":2,"typeName":"FixedArray32<u8>","docs":[]}]}},"docs":[]}: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'toString')
What's the changes ? I thought it was just changing the index from 1 to 0, but it doesn’t seem to be.
@ascjones I just merged https://github.com/paritytech/ink/pull/923, polkadot-js/api has been updated in https://github.com/polkadot-js/api/pull/4289. So this issue is no longer blocked.
