Passing string as parameter throws error

[somoza]

I create 2 diff contracts, one with set function receiving integer as parameter, the other receiving string.

First works fine and the second one fails with this message:

{:error,
 %{
   "code" => -32000,
   "data" => %{
     "0xe20bb21666d462cfec33dad694cae424fadd38cdc4820970c8769f2e7690f149" => %{
       "error" => "revert",
       "program_counter" => 5281,
       "return" => "0x"
     },
     "name" => "RuntimeError",
     "stack" => "RuntimeError: VM Exception while processing transaction: revert\n    at Function.RuntimeError.fromResults (/tmp/.mount_ganachjrwblU/resources/static/node/node_modules/ganache-core/lib/utils/runtimeerror.js:94:13)\n    at BlockchainDouble.processBlock (/tmp/.mount_ganachjrwblU/resources/static/node/node_modules/ganache-core/lib/blockchain_double.js:627:24)\n    at runMicrotasks (<anonymous>)\n    at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:93:5)"
   },
   "message" => "VM Exception while processing transaction: revert"
 }}

I've tried converting string to hex and didn't work either.

Please add an example on readme on how to format string before passing it to contract function.

Are you passing an ethereum address as the parameter to the contract function or is it just a normal string?
