Part 3: Tickets
Previously, you learned how to do inter-contract calls, use view and do unit testing. In this third session, you will enhance your skills on:
- Using tickets.
- Don't mess up with
DUP
errors while manipulating tickets.
On the second version of the poke game, you were able to poke any contract without constraint. A right to poke via tickets is now mandatory. Ticket are a kind of object that cannot be copied and can hold some trustable information.

Prerequisites
Prerequisites are the same as the first session: https://github.com/marigold-dev/training-dapp-1#memo-prerequisites.
Get the code from the session 2 solution here.
Tickets
Tickets came with Tezos Edo upgrade, they are great and often misunderstood.
Ticket structure:
- Ticketer: (address) the creator contract address.
- Value: (any) Can be any type from string to bytes. It holds whatever arbitrary values.
- Amount: (nat) quantity of tickets minted.
Tickets features:
- Not comparable: it makes no sense to compare tickets because tickets from same type are all equals and can be merged into a single ticket. When ticket types are different then it is no more comparable.
- Transferable: you can send ticket into a Transaction parameter.
- Storable: only on smart contract storage for the moment (Note: a new protocol release will enable it for user account soon).
- Non dupable: you cannot copy or duplicate a ticket, it is a unique singleton object living in specific blockchain instance.
- Splittable: if amount is > 2 then you can split ticket object into 2 objects.
- Mergeable: you can merge ticket from same ticketer and same type.
- Mintable/burnable: anyone can create and destroy tickets.
Example of usage:
- Authentication and Authorization token: giving a ticket to a user provides you Authentication. Adding some claims/rules on the ticket provides you some rights.
- Simplified FA1.2/FA2 token: representing crypto token with tickets (mint/burn/split/join), but it does not have all same properties and does not respect the TZIP standard.
- Voting rights: giving 1 ticket that count for 1 vote on each member.
- Wrapped crypto: holding XTZ collateral against a ticket, and redeeming it later.
- Many others ...
Minting
Minting is the action of creating ticket from void. In general, minting operations are done by administrators of smart contract or either by an end user.
-
Edit the
./contracts/pokeGame.jsligo
file and add a map of ticket ownership to the defaultstorage
type. This map keeps a list of consumable tickets for each authorized user. It is used as a burnable right to poke.export type storage = {
pokeTraces: map<address, pokeMessage>,
feedback: string,
ticketOwnership: map<address, ticket<string>> //ticket of claims
};In order to fill this map, add an new administration endpoint. A new entrypoint
Init
is adding x tickets to a specific user.Note: to simplify, there is no security around this entrypoint, but in Production it should.
Tickets are very special objects that cannot be DUPLICATED. During compilation to Michelson, using a variable twice, copying a structure holding tickets are generating
DUP
command. To avoid our contract to fail at runtime, LIGO parses statically our code during compilation time to detect any DUP on tickets.To solve most of issues, segregate ticket objects from the rest of the storage, or structures containing ticket objects in order to avoid compilation errors. To do this, just destructure any object until you get tickets isolated.
For each function having the storage as parameter,
store
object need to be destructured to isolateticketOwnership
object holding our tickets. Then, don't use anymore thestore
object or it creates a DUP error. -
Add the new
Init
function.@entry
const init = ([a, ticketCount]: [address, nat], store: storage): return_ => {
const { pokeTraces, feedback, ticketOwnership } = store;
if (ticketCount == (0 as nat)) {
return [
list([]) as list<operation>,
{ pokeTraces, feedback, ticketOwnership }
]
} else {
const t: ticket<string> =
Option.unopt(Tezos.create_ticket("can_poke", ticketCount));
return [
list([]) as list<operation>,
{ pokeTraces, feedback, ticketOwnership: Map.add(a, t, ticketOwnership) }
]
}
};Init function looks at how many tickets to create from the current caller, then it is added to the current map.
-
Modify the poke function.
@entry
const poke = (_: unit, store: storage): return_ => {
const { pokeTraces, feedback, ticketOwnership } = store;
const [t, tom]: [option<ticket<string>>, map<address, ticket<string>>] =
Map.get_and_update(
Tezos.get_source(),
None() as option<ticket<string>>,
ticketOwnership
);
return match(t) {
when (None):
failwith("User does not have tickets => not allowed")
when (Some(_t)):
[
list([]) as list<operation>,
{
feedback,
pokeTraces: Map.add(
Tezos.get_source(),
{ receiver: Tezos.get_self_address(), feedback: "" },
pokeTraces
),
ticketOwnership: tom
}
]
}
};First, extract an existing optional ticket from the map. If an operation is done directly on the map, even trying to find or get this object in the structure, a DUP Michelson instruction is generated. Use the secure
get_and_update
function from Map library to extract the item from the map and avoid any copy.Note: more information about this function here.
On a second step, look at the optional ticket, if it exists, then burn it (i.e do not store it somewhere on the storage anymore) and add a trace of execution, otherwise fail with an error message.
-
Same for
pokeAndGetFeedback
function, do same checks and type modifications as below.@no_mutation
@entry
const pokeAndGetFeedback = (oracleAddress: address, store: storage): return_ => {
const { pokeTraces, feedback, ticketOwnership } = store;
ignore(feedback);
const [t, tom]: [option<ticket<string>>, map<address, ticket<string>>] =
Map.get_and_update(
Tezos.get_source(),
None() as option<ticket<string>>,
ticketOwnership
);
let feedbackOpt: option<string> =
Tezos.call_view("feedback", unit, oracleAddress);
return match(t) {
when (None):
failwith("User does not have tickets => not allowed")
when (Some(_t)):
match(feedbackOpt) {
when (Some(feedback)):
do {
let feedbackMessage = {
receiver: oracleAddress,
feedback: feedback
};
return [
list([]) as list<operation>,
{
feedback,
pokeTraces: Map.add(
Tezos.get_source(),
feedbackMessage,
pokeTraces
),
ticketOwnership: tom
}
]
}
when (None):
failwith("Cannot find view feedback on given oracle address")
}
}
}; -
Update the storage initialization on
pokeGame.storageList.jsligo
.#import "pokeGame.jsligo" "Contract"
const default_storage = {
pokeTraces: Map.empty as map<address, Contract.pokeMessage>,
feedback: "kiss",
ticketOwnership: Map.empty as
map<
address,
ticket<string>
> //ticket of claims
}; -
Compile the contract to check any errors.
Note: don't forget to check that Docker is running for taqueria.
npm i
TAQ_LIGO_IMAGE=ligolang/ligo:1.1.0 taq compile pokeGame.jsligoCheck on logs that everything is fine .
Try to display a DUP error now.
-
Add this line on
poke function
just after the first line of storage destructurationconst { pokeTraces, feedback, ticketOwnership } = store;
.const t2 = Map.find_opt(Tezos.get_source(), ticketOwnership);
-
Compile again.
TAQ_LIGO_IMAGE=ligolang/ligo:1.1.0 taq compile pokeGame.jsligo
This time you should see the
DUP
warning generated by the find function.Warning: variable "ticketOwnership" cannot be used more than once.
-
Remove it.
Test your code
Update the unit tests files to see if you can still poke.
-
Edit the
./contracts/unit_pokeGame.jsligo

Adapt the frontend code
-
Rerun the app and check that you can cannot use the app anymore without tickets.
cd app
yarn dev -
Connect with any wallet with enough tez, and Poke your own contract.
The Kukai wallet is giving me back the error from the smart contract.
Ok, so let's authorize some minting on my user and try again to poke.
-
Add a new button for minting on a specific contract, replace the full content of

export default App;Note: You maybe have noticed, but the full typed generated Taquito class is used for the storage access now. It improves maintenance in case you contract storage has changed.
-
Refresh the page, now that you have the Mint button.
-
Mint a ticket on this contract.
-
Wait for the Tx popup confirmation and then try to poke again, it should succeed now.
-
Wait for the Tx popup confirmation and try to poke again, you should be out of tickets and it should fail.
Congratulation, you know how to use tickets and avoid DUP errors.
Takeaways:
- You can go further and improve the code like consuming one 1 ticket quantity at a time and manage it the right way.
- You can also implement different type of Authorization mechanism, not only
can poke
claim. - You can also try to base your ticket on some duration time like JSON token can do, not using the data field as a string but as bytes and store a timestamp on it.
Summary
Now, you are able to understand ticket. If you want to learn more about tickets, read this great article here.
On next training, you will learn how to upgrade smart contracts.
When you are ready, continue to Part 4: Smart contract upgrades.
