Social Graph

The Social Graph contract manages follow/unfollow and block/unblock relationships between users. All operations are accessed through the main SocialSDK — there is no separate graph SDK class.

Following

import { SocialSDK } from '@akta/sdk/social'

const social = new SocialSDK({ algorand })

await social.follow({ address: userToFollow })

Gated Follows

A user can gate who is allowed to follow them (e.g., require a minimum stake or NFT holding):

await social.follow({
  address: userToFollow,
  gateTxn: gateCallTxn, // Gate proof transaction
})

Unfollowing

await social.unfollow({ address: userToUnfollow })

Blocking

Blocks prevent interactions from the blocked address:

await social.block({ address: userToBlock })

await social.unblock({ address: userToUnblock })

Reading Relationships

// Check if an address is following another
const follows = await social.isFollowing({
  follower: addressA,
  user: addressB,
})

// Check if a user has blocked another
const blocked = await social.isBlocked({
  user: blocker,
  blocked: blockedAddress,
})

// Get follow index (position in the follow list)
const index = await social.getFollowIndex({
  follower: addressA,
  user: addressB,
})

Related Gates

The social graph feeds into two gate types for access control:

Gate	Description
Social Follower Count Gate	Requires a minimum follower count
Social Follower Index Gate	Requires following a specific set of users

See Gates for details on social-based access control.
