"Returns all the materials necessary to constructing any signed transactions offline."
I don't think we need any other details, and we can also get rid of the mention to /tx/artifacts.

I think JSON, and SCALE should be lower case here to be consistent

I think toJSON() might be more fitting here. Generally speaking I think toHuman is good for user facing data that is meant to be displayed, such as UI's.

That's awesome! Thank you so much for this one!
Changed it and added the as unknown as Vec<u32> since this reflects the actual type which is returned from await api.call.metadata.metadataVersions(). If inspected with .toRawType(), it is a Vec<u32>.

Ofc! 😱 Changing this!

Were potentially calling api.at twice, I would just pass the api from the controller down to the service and call it apiAt or something.

I changed the previous one but for this one, in the RuntimeMetadataController > getMetadataAvailableVersions I don't call api.at. I just get the hash.
- throw an error if newer call is not available for older blocks - removed some comments left in node transaction spec file

Closes #1410
Description
The current implementation differs from the initial idea outlined in the #1410 issue. We did not add a query param in the existing endpoints in order to maintain the current functionality unchanged. Instead, the following new endpoints were added:
/runtime/metadata/{metadataVersion}jsonformat./runtime/metadata/versions["14", "15"]when connected to Kusama/Polkadot chain.transaction/material/{metadataVersion}metadatais defined then the output will be in the requested format (scaleorjson).jsonformat.The input for path parameter
metadataVersionis expected in avXformat, whereXrepresents the version number of the metadata. Examples:v14,v15.Notes-Thoughts on Code Implementation
metadataVersionpath parameter is repeated in bothgetMetadataVersionedfunction andgetTransactionMaterialwithVersionedMetadata. Maybe I could add these validation checks in amiddlewareand call it from there 🤔transaction/material/{metadataVersion}whenmetadatais set toscale, I returnmetadata.toString()(before I was returningmetadata.toHex()). I replaced that so that the output is the same as in p-js apps when calling metadata.metadataAtVersion() for a specific version).Tests
metadataVersionparam:v25,v11vJDHSorabcf14or15. the input should be of formatv14/v15orV14/V15.runtime/metadata/v14?at=225911transaction/material/v14?metadata=scale&at=225911both these cases will return an error message
Function 'api.call.metadata.metadataVersions()' is not available at this block height.since for these new endpoints we make use of the new callmetadataVersions()which not available in older blocks.scaleorjsonformat intransaction/materialendpoint.Todos
v14orv15but the generic path parammetadataVersion
