- Hardhat: compile and run the smart contracts on a local development network
- TypeChain: generate TypeScript types for smart contracts
- Ethers: renowned Ethereum library and wallet implementation
- Waffle: tooling for writing comprehensive smart contract tests
- Solhint: linter
- Solcover: code coverage
- Prettier Plugin Solidity: code formatter
Before running any command, make sure to install dependencies:
$ yarn install
Compile the smart contracts with Hardhat:
$ yarn compile
Compile the smart contracts and generate TypeChain artifacts:
$ yarn typechain
Lint the Solidity code:
$ yarn lint:sol
Lint the TypeScript code:
$ yarn lint:ts
Run the Mocha tests:
$ yarn test
Generate the code coverage report:
$ yarn coverage
See the gas usage per unit test and average gas per method call:
$ REPORT_GAS=true yarn test
Delete the smart contract artifacts, the coverage reports and the Hardhat cache:
$ yarn clean
Deploy the contracts to Hardhat Network:
$ yarn deploy
Deploy the contracts to a specific network, such as the Ropsten testnet:
$ yarn deploy:network ropsten
If you use VSCode, you can enjoy syntax highlighting for your Solidity code via the vscode-solidity extension. The recommended approach to set the compiler version is to add the following fields to your VSCode user settings:
{
"solidity.compileUsingRemoteVersion": "v0.8.4+commit.c7e474f2",
"solidity.defaultCompiler": "remote"
}
Where of course v0.8.4+commit.c7e474f2
can be replaced with any other version.
