Missing init method - singleton

[quantranld]

Hi team,

Error: using singleton style, call contract init shows error as below - MethodNotFound:
export CONTRACT=dev-1639401101891-95375974097216
near call $CONTRACT init --accountId $CONTRACT
Scheduling a call: dev-1639401101891-95375974097216.init() Doing account.functionCall() Receipt: FdvybMRSR6NfqxaTftEXJ4y5GEsb9dcLD7tXomixd22f Failure [dev-1639401101891-95375974097216]: Error: Contract method is not found ServerTransactionError: Contract method is not found at Object.parseResultError (/home/quantranse/.nvm/versions/node/v16.2.0/lib/node_modules/near-cli/node_modules/near-api-js/lib/utils/rpc_errors.js:31:29) at Account.signAndSendTransactionV2 (/home/quantranse/.nvm/versions/node/v16.2.0/lib/node_modules/near-cli/node_modules/near-api-js/lib/account.js:160:36) at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:96:5) at async scheduleFunctionCall (/home/quantranse/.nvm/versions/node/v16.2.0/lib/node_modules/near-cli/commands/call.js:57:38) at async Object.handler (/home/quantranse/.nvm/versions/node/v16.2.0/lib/node_modules/near-cli/utils/exit-on-error.js:52:9) { type: 'MethodNotFound', context: undefined, index: 0, transaction_outcome: { proof: [ [Object] ], block_hash: 'L1J7izqs99Sd352j6gRJKRzKqpzqLzJ4eeDg97KJFbn', id: 'Ca5wtTBasYSPCKqDsSCWbFiQpJUAaXbsvPu8Y7ToG92o', outcome: { logs: [], receipt_ids: [Array], gas_burnt: 2427934415604, tokens_burnt: '242793441560400000000', executor_id: 'dev-1639401101891-95375974097216', status: [Object], metadata: [Object] } } }

Expect: can initialize the singleton contract.
Solution: I've tried to add init function to Contract class, it worked:
near call $CONTRACT init --accountId $CONTRACT
Scheduling a call: dev-1639401861183-56323128751619.init() Doing account.functionCall() Transaction Id 6zKb6yWnETT5ZVkdatPMceDNDq19x1Wz3V3QZu7MAUh5 To see the transaction in the transaction explorer, please open this url in your browser https://explorer.testnet.near.org/transactions/6zKb6yWnETT5ZVkdatPMceDNDq19x1Wz3V3QZu7MAUh5 ''

Thanks team!

I'm not completely sure what this issue is about, but I don't think it's related to this project missing the init function. If you are using the singleton pattern, try to call init on a deployed contract, you are actually trying to call the constructor.
