Cardano Upgrade: What Is New?

This latest Cardano ogmios v6.4.0 upgrade has more impact on developers than it will on the end users. The update was released by ecosystem developer ktorZ and the documentation shows it has been integrated with cardano-node==8.11.0-pre. 

One of the major changes is the introduction of new transaction submission or evaluation error. With this change, a very defined error message dubbed “UnauthorizedGovernanceAction” will be shown when developers try to “submit a governance action other than protocol parameters change, hard fork initiation or info during the bootstrapping phase of the Conway era.”

The second important upgrade change hinges on the addition of a new queryNetwork error. This is activated as code=2004 and is “raised when trying to query a genesis configuration which is invalid or missing (for instance, when there’s a mismatch between the Conway configuration and the underlying ledger library parsing it.”

This ogmios v6.4.0 is important because it helps define the functionality of Cardano to foster developer efficiency. Depending on the error message returned when dealing with the protocol, developers can get an easier fix, cut building time and enhance the overall network growth.

This upgrade currently have a level of durability as the GitHub repository highlighted that it has been tested on testnet and mainnet respectively. While the testnet used is SanchoNet, the upgrade has also passed through Mainnet, Preprod, Preview.
