Problem
It's currently not possible to store program address information for other clusters.
Solution
Initially, I thought of making the top-level
addressfield an enum:This way, we could support both string address as a default and an object type for more detailed (cluster based) information. However, the program's IDL may also exist in other clusters, which makes the current IDL (the one we got the other deployment addresses from) useless (because the IDL in the cluster should be fetched). For this reason, it made more sense to store this information in the
metadatafield compared to the top-leveladdressfield:Summary of changes
Add
metadata.deploymentsfield that optionally stores deployment addresses inmainnet,testnet,devnetandlocalnet.
