How to transfer the ownership of a move module?

[0x-j]

Asked on discord by dellwatson

since smart contract is on account, then is it not possible to transfer the smart contract?
instead i should transfer the resources (struct) to other account? how this move smart contract logic works in case i want to move smart contract to other person

Similar to Solidity contract, although a module is published under an address (could be an EOA account or resource account or Object), you can program the admin of the module. Checkout the ANS router module, where it only allows current admin to update admin.
If you want to transfer ownership of a module to another person, you would update the module admin you stored to that person.

@0xaptosj nice example

could be an EOA account or resource account or Object

i believe its not possible to publish a module as an Object currently, might be wrong about this

module objects will really nice - everyone won't re-implement the concept of an owner in each module

Yeah i think publish module under resource is still WIP, cc @JohnChangUK

Today we usually publish module under our own account (i.e. EOA account)

looking forward to module objects, big QoL improvement

Yes coming very soon! This will allow modules to be contained in separate objects, and allowing upgrades to be done via ownership of the object/code.

can't wait! as soon as this ships, there's at least a hundred lines of duplicated code im deleting
