Fetching profile of an human avatar

This section is dedicated to handling the profiles of an avatar

Get a profile for the avatar

This function fetches the current profile associated with the avatar. If no profile exists, it will return undefined.

  const profile = await avatar.getProfile();
  console.log("Avatar Profile:", profile);

Update metadata of the profile

This function updates the avatar's metadata by uploading a new content identifier (CID) to IPFS. The CID represents the new metadata for the avatar.

// IPFS CID for the new metadata
const cid = "QmYourIPFSCIDHere";

try {
  const receipt = await avatar.updateMetadata(cid);
  console.log("Metadata updated successfully:", receipt);
} catch (error) {
  console.error("Error updating metadata:", error);
}

Update profile of the avatar

This function updates the avatar’s profile and returns the IPFS CID of the newly updated profile.

const newProfile: Profile = {
  name: "Avatar Name",
  description: "Updated description for the avatar.",
  image: "ipfs://QmYourImageCIDHere", // Example IPFS image CID
};

try {
  const newCid = await avatar.updateProfile(newProfile);
  console.log("Profile updated successfully. New CID:", newCid);
} catch (error) {
  console.error("Error updating profile:", error);
}

Creating profile without an Avatar instance

  name: "Avatar Name",  
  description: "Updated description for the avatar.",  
  imageUrl: "ipfs://QmYourImageCIDHere", // Note: changed from image to imageUrl  
};  
  
try {  
  const receipt = await sdk.createOrUpdateProfile(newProfile);  
  console.log("Profile created/updated successfully");  
} catch (error) {
