How to call public funs from Sui framework using CLI?

Question

Hey folks, Im trying to call public functions from the Sui framework using the Sui CLI. For instance, if someone transfers an object to me and I dont want it, how can I freeze it? I thought about using sui client call, but Im having trouble with the module identifier. Is publishing a wrapper package the only way, or is there a CLI command Im missing?

I actually figured this out using sui client ptb: sui client ptb --move-call 0x2::transfer::public_freeze_object @0xbcb2c3c6b0f67828fce9702115b914414df767a35c8a541413787d0a1e66682e, at least on the testnet. You just need the correct type for the call, although Im not certain if the key makes it implement a specific trait.

Its possible to call public functions from Sui framework packages via the Sui CLI, but with some limitations. For instance, accessing certain system modules like 0x2 directly isnt fully supported yet. A common workaround is to publish a custom package that wraps the desired function like public_freeze_object, allowing you to call it with your object ID as a parameter. This gives more flexibility. Feel free to reach out if you need help creating this wrapper package!
