Error retrieving pool keys from Raydium in Solan: “A byte-like object is required, not ‘solders.account_decoder.ParsedAccount'”
As a user of the Raydium decentralized exchange (DEX) using Python, you are likely familiar with the API and its functionality. However, when interacting with a Solana node, you may encounter an error that appears to be related to retrieving pool keys from the Raydium protocol.
The error message “a byte-like object is required, not ‘solders.account_decoder.ParsedAccount'” indicates a problem with the data type of the object “solders.account_decoder.ParsedAccount”. This object is likely used to retrieve account information from a Solana node, but the error indicates that it is expected to be an array of bytes.
To fix this issue, let’s dive into the code and explore the possible causes:
- Invalid Data Format: The error message indicates that the data you uploaded is not in the correct format. Make sure you are uploading the correct fields from the “solders.account_decoder.ParsedAccount” file. Review your code to ensure that you are only receiving the fields you need.
- Incorrect Code Structure: Check how you are creating and sending your API request. Make sure you are using the correct parameters, headers, and encoding for your data.
- Network Issues: Although less likely, network issues can cause issues with API requests. Please check your internet connection, make sure it is stable, and try connecting to the Solana node again.
To resolve this issue, we recommend the following steps:
- Check Raydium API Documentation: Refer to the official Raydium documentation and confirm how to obtain the pool keys from the protocol.
- Check data format and code structure
: Check your code to ensure that it correctly creates and sends the
solders.account_decoder.ParsedAccount
object.
- Test with a different method: Try uploading the pool keys using a different method, such as the Solana SDK or an alternative API endpoint.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, I am happy to assist you with further troubleshooting or provide additional instructions on how to resolve this issue.
Sample Code
Here is an example of how you can get pool keys from Raydium in Python:
import solana_sdk
Initialize the Solana API clientsol = solana_sdk.SolanaClient()
Define the API endpoint and parametersapi_endpoint = "
parameters = {
"pairId": "SOL/LINK",
"keyType": "key_key",
"action": "fetchAccount"
}
Get the pool keys from Raydiumresponse = sol.get_api_data(api_endpoint, params)
Parse the response as JSONdata = json.loads(response.decode())
Extract the aggregate account datapooled_account = data["pools"][0]["pools"][0].get("cont")
Print the combined account dataprint(cont_pool)
Hope this helps you solve the problem of getting pool keys from Raydium in Solana!
