Problem

The create-order form only checked that a fixed-sats amount was positive (_checkValid in add_order_screen.dart). It never compared the amount against the Mostro node's min_order_amount / max_order_amount, even though the app already parses both into MostroInstance (shown on the About screen). An out-of-range fixed-sats order was only rejected by the daemon after submission (OutOfRangeSatsAmount).

Fix

Read the node's min/max from mostroNodeProvider and, for fixed-sats orders, disable submit and show an inline message naming the accepted range when the amount is out of bounds:

Amount must be between {min} and {max} sats for this Mostro node

  • _satsOutOfRange(...) returns the node's range when the entered amount is out of bounds, else null.
  • build folds this into isValid, so the submit button disables live as the user types.
  • A defence-in-depth check in _submit re-verifies the range so no code path submits an out-of-range fixed-sats order.
  • Fails open: when the node advertises no limits, or the amount isn't yet a number, submission is not blocked (a valid order is never rejected just because the limits couldn't be read).

Scope

Per the issue, this covers fixed-sats orders only:

  • Market-price orders need an exchange-rate provider to convert fiat -> sats client-side before the same check can apply. That's out of scope here and deferred to a separate issue (the issue notes this).
  • Range orders are unaffected their amount isn't a single fixed value, so the min/max sats check doesn't apply.

Testing

flutter analyze clean; strings localized in all five locales. Verified on a physical device (Nokia C31):

  • A fixed-sats amount below the node's minimum (e.g. 300 against a 500 floor) disables submit and shows the range message.
  • An in-range amount (e.g. 5000 within 500–500000) re-enables submit.
1000265297 1000265296

Separate issue noticed while verifying

The form currently lets you toggle range mode on and enter a fixed sats amount, which sends both a fiat range and a single amountSats; the daemon rejects that as "Invalid amount". This is pre-existing and independent of the min/max validation here I can file it separately.

1000265339 1000265340

Closes #282.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added validation for fixed-sats orders based on the selected node’s minimum and maximum limits.
    • Displays the accepted satoshi range below the price section.
    • Prevents submission when the entered amount falls outside the permitted range.
    • Added translated validation messages in English, German, Spanish, French, and Italian.

…e's min/max before submitting

The create-order form only checked that the fixed-sats amount was positive; it
never compared it against the Mostro node's advertised min_order_amount /
max_order_amount (already parsed into MostroInstance and shown on the About
screen). An out-of-range fixed-sats order was only rejected by the daemon after
submission (OutOfRangeSatsAmount).

Read the node's min/max from mostroNodeProvider and, for fixed-sats orders,
disable submit and show an inline message naming the accepted range when the
amount is out of bounds. Fails open: when the node advertises no limits, or the
amount is not yet a number, submission is not blocked. A defence-in-depth guard
in _submit re-checks the range so no path can submit an out-of-range fixed-sats
order.

Scope: fixed-sats orders only, per the issue. Market-price validation needs an
exchange-rate provider to convert fiat to sats client-side and is deferred to a
separate issue; range orders are unaffected (their amount is not a single fixed
value). Strings localized in all five locales.

Verified on a physical device (Nokia C31): a fixed-sats amount below the node's
minimum disables submit and shows the range message; an in-range amount submits.

Closes MostroP2P#282.

Walkthrough

The order screen now validates fixed-sats amounts against the selected Mostro node’s limits. It blocks invalid submissions, disables the submit action, displays the accepted range, and provides localized messages in five languages.

Changes

Order amount validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Node range validation and feedback
lib/features/order/screens/add_order_screen.dart, lib/l10n/app_*.arb
The screen checks fixed-sats amounts against available node minimum and maximum values. Non-numeric amounts and unavailable limits fail open. Out-of-range amounts block submission, disable the submit action, and show localized warnings with the accepted range.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to c140d

The PR adds node min/max validation for fixed-sats orders, but the current implementation can also block range-order flows when a fixed sats value is present, contrary to the intended scope. Merge should wait for that condition to be excluded; one-sided limits and very large amounts also need bounded follow-up.

Poem

A rabbit checks the sats with care,
Against the node’s bounds laid bare.
Too low, too high? The button waits,
While translated warnings guard the gates.
Min and max now hop in tune.

these validations so they do not show warnings, disable Submit, or return early.
- Around line 81-85: Update the order-limit handling around the

of constructing false two-sided ranges with minOrder ?? 0 or maxOrder ??
minOrder. Use localized messages for each one-sided case, or omit the range
message when either bound is absent, while preserving the existing behavior when
both limits are present.
- Around line 79-80: Update the range validation around fixedSatsStr to use

BigInt.from(minOrder) and BigInt.from(maxOrder) so values beyond the signed
64-bit range are still checked. Preserve the existing null/invalid-input
handling and _checkValid/NewOrderParams behavior.

Dart int.tryParse behavior integer values outside 64-bit range native platforms BigInt documentation

💡 Result:

On native Dart platforms, the int type is restricted to 64-bit signed two's complement integers [1][2][3]. Consequently, int.tryParse behaves as follows when encountering values outside this 64-bit range: 1. Decimal literals: If a decimal string represents a value that does not fit within the signed 64-bit range (-2^63 to 2^63 - 1), int.tryParse will return null [4]. 2. Hexadecimal literals: Hexadecimal strings (prefixed with 0x) are treated differently. They are allowed to represent values up to the full 64-bit unsigned range (0 to 2^64 - 1) [4]. If a hexadecimal string exceeds the 64-bit unsigned range, int.tryParse will return null [5]. If the value fits in the unsigned 64-bit range but exceeds the signed 64-bit range, it is parsed and wrapped into its corresponding signed 64-bit representation (e.g., 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF becomes -1) [5][4]. For integer values that exceed the 64-bit range, you must use the BigInt class, which provides arbitrary-precision integers [2][6]. The BigInt.tryParse method can be used to safely parse string representations of integers of any size, as it is not limited by the 64-bit constraints of the int type [6][7]. In summary, use int.tryParse for values known to be within the 64-bit signed range (or 64-bit unsigned for hex) and BigInt.tryParse for any values that might exceed those limits [6][4].

Use BigInt for the range check.

When fixedSatsStr exceeds the signed 64-bit int limit, int.tryParse returns null, while _checkValid and NewOrderParams accept it as BigInt. The node-limit check then fails open. Use BigInt.tryParse and compare with BigInt.from(minOrder) and BigInt.from(maxOrder).

Handle one-sided node limits explicitly.

max_order_amount and min_order_amount are independently nullable. The current fallback displays false two-sided ranges such as 10–10 or 0–15. Add localized lower-only and upper-only messages, or skip the range message when either bound is absent.

…e orders, unit tests

Review round on the fixed-sats limit validation:

- Extract the range check into a pure top-level satsOutOfNodeRange() so it is
  unit-testable, and compare with BigInt.tryParse / BigInt.from instead of
  int.tryParse. Amounts beyond the signed 64-bit range (which NewOrderParams
  accepts as BigInt) are now caught rather than silently failing open.
- Only enforce the check when the node advertises BOTH a min and a max, so a
  one-sided limit no longer produces a false two-sided range like "10 to 10"
  or "0 to 15". When either bound is absent the daemon stays the backstop.
- Exclude range orders: the derived checks now require !isMarket && !_isRange,
  so a fixed-sats value entered in range mode no longer disables Submit, shows
  the warning, or blocks _submit (range orders are out of scope for this check).
- Add unit tests covering at/below/above each bound, missing bounds (none,
  min-only, max-only), invalid/empty input, the exact-bound cases, whitespace
  trimming, and the beyond-64-bit BigInt case.
