- Contributing to Scaffold-ETH 2
Before you begin, you need to install the following tools:
- Node (v18 LTS)
- Yarn (v1 or v2+)
- Git
To get started with Scaffold-ETH 2, follow the steps below:
- Clone this repo & install dependencies
git clone https://github.com/scaffold-eth/scaffold-eth-2.git
cd scaffold-eth-2
yarn install
- Run a local network in the first terminal:
yarn chain
This command starts a local Ethereum network using Hardhat. The network runs on your local machine and can be used for testing and development. You can customize the network configuration in hardhat.config.ts
.
- On a second terminal, deploy the test contract:
yarn deploy
This command deploys a test smart contract to the local network. The contract is located in packages/hardhat/contracts
and can be modified to suit your needs. The yarn deploy
command uses the deploy script located in packages/hardhat/deploy
to deploy the contract to the network. You can also customize the deploy script.
- On a third terminal, start your NextJS app:
yarn start
- On a fourth terminal, build and start your Phat Contract to watch for new
request(address target)
:
Build Phat Contract script
yarn phat:build
Run Phat Contract locally to watch for request()
yarn phat:watch
Visit your app on: http://localhost:3000
. You can interact with your smart contract using the contract component or the example ui in the frontend. You can tweak the app config in packages/nextjs/scaffold.config.ts
.
Run smart contract test with yarn hardhat:test
- Edit your smart contract
YourContract.sol
inpackages/hardhat/contracts
- Edit your frontend in
packages/nextjs/pages
- Edit your deployment scripts in
packages/hardhat/deploy
Once you are ready to deploy your smart contracts, there are a few things you need to adjust.
- Select the network
By default, yarn deploy
will deploy the contract to the local network. You can change the defaultNetwork in packages/hardhat/hardhat.config.ts.
You could also simply run yarn deploy --network target_network
to deploy to another network.
Check the hardhat.config.ts
for the networks that are pre-configured. You can also add other network settings to the hardhat.config.ts file
. Here are the Alchemy docs for information on specific networks.
Example: To deploy the contract to the Sepolia network, run the command below:
yarn deploy --network sepolia
- Generate a new account or add one to deploy the contract(s) from. Additionally you will need to add your Alchemy API key. Rename
.env.example
to.env
and fill the required keys.
ALCHEMY_API_KEY="",
DEPLOYER_PRIVATE_KEY=""
The deployer account is the account that will deploy your contracts. Additionally, the deployer account will be used to execute any function calls that are part of your deployment script.
You can generate a random account / private key with yarn generate
or add the private key of your crypto wallet. yarn generate
will create a random account and add the DEPLOYER_PRIVATE_KEY to the .env file. You can check the generated account with yarn account
.
- Deploy your smart contract(s)
Run the command below to deploy the smart contract to the target network. Make sure to have some funds in your deployer account to pay for the transaction.
yarn deploy --network network_name
- Verify your smart contract
You can verify your smart contract on Etherscan by running:
yarn verify --network network_name
Hint: We recommend connecting your GitHub repo to Vercel (through the Vercel UI) so it gets automatically deployed when pushing to main
.
If you want to deploy directly from the CLI, run yarn vercel
and follow the steps to deploy to Vercel. Once you log in (email, github, etc), the default options should work. It'll give you a public URL.
If you want to redeploy to the same production URL you can run yarn vercel --prod
. If you omit the --prod
flag it will deploy it to a preview/test URL.
Make sure your packages/nextjs/scaffold.config.ts
file has the values you need.
Scaffold-ETH 2 provides a collection of custom React hooks designed to simplify interactions with your deployed smart contracts. These hooks are wrappers around wagmi
, automatically loading the necessary contract ABI and address. They offer an easy-to-use interface for reading from, writing to, and monitoring events emitted by your smart contracts.
To help developers get started with smart contract interaction using Scaffold-ETH 2, we've provided the following custom hooks:
- useScaffoldContractRead: for reading public variables and getting data from read-only functions of your contract.
- useScaffoldContractWrite: for sending transactions to your contract to write data or perform an action.
- useScaffoldEventSubscriber: for subscribing to your contract events and receiving real-time updates when events are emitted.
- useScaffoldEventHistory: for retrieving historical event logs for your contract, providing past activity data.
- useDeployedContractInfo: for fetching details from your contract, including the ABI and address.
- useScaffoldContract: for obtaining a contract instance that lets you interact with the methods of your deployed smart contract.
These hooks offer a simplified and streamlined interface for interacting with your smart contracts. If you need to interact with external contracts, you can use wagmi
directly, or add external contract data to your deployedContracts.ts
file.
Use this hook to read public variables and get data from read-only functions of your smart contract.
const { data: totalCounter } = useScaffoldContractRead({
contractName: "YourContract",
functionName: "getGreeting",
args: ["ARGUMENTS IF THE FUNCTION ACCEPTS ANY"],
});
This example retrieves the data returned by the getGreeting
function of the YourContract
smart contract. If the function accepts any arguments, they can be passed in the args array. The retrieved data is stored in the data
property of the returned object.
Use this hook to send a transaction to your smart contract to write data or perform an action.
const { writeAsync, isLoading, isMining } = useScaffoldContractWrite({
contractName: "YourContract",
functionName: "setGreeting",
args: ["The value to set"],
// For payable functions, expressed in ETH
value: "0.01",
// The number of block confirmations to wait for before considering transaction to be confirmed (default : 1).
blockConfirmations: 1,
// The callback function to execute when the transaction is confirmed.
onBlockConfirmation: (txnReceipt) => {
console.log("Transaction blockHash", txnReceipt.blockHash);
},
});
To send the transaction, you can call the writeAsync
function returned by the hook. Here's an example usage:
<button className="btn btn-primary" onClick={writeAsync}>
Send TX
</button>
This example sends a transaction to the YourContract
smart contract to call the setGreeting
function with the arguments passed in args
. The writeAsync
function sends the transaction to the smart contract, and the isLoading
and isMining
properties indicate whether the transaction is currently being processed by the network.
Use this hook to subscribe to events emitted by your smart contract, and receive real-time updates when these events are emitted.
useScaffoldEventSubscriber({
contractName: "YourContract",
eventName: "GreetingChange",
// The listener function is called whenever a GreetingChange event is emitted by the contract.
// It receives the parameters emitted by the event, for this example: GreetingChange(address greetingSetter, string newGreeting, bool premium, uint256 value);
listener: (greetingSetter, newGreeting, premium, value) => {
console.log(greetingSetter, newGreeting, premium, value);
},
});
This example subscribes to the GreetingChange
event emitted by the YourContract
smart contract, and logs the parameters emitted by the event to the console whenever it is emitted. The listener
function accepts the parameters emitted by the event, and can be customized according to your needs.
Use this hook to retrieve historical event logs for your smart contract, providing past activity data.
const {
data: events,
isLoading: isLoadingEvents,
error: errorReadingEvents,
} = useScaffoldEventHistory({
contractName: "YourContract",
eventName: "GreetingChange",
// Specify the starting block number from which to read events, this is a bigint.
fromBlock: 31231n,
blockData: true,
// Apply filters to the event based on parameter names and values { [parameterName]: value },
filters: { premium: true }
// If set to true it will return the transaction data for each event (default: false),
transactionData: true,
// If set to true it will return the receipt data for each event (default: false),
receiptData: true
});
This example retrieves the historical event logs for the GreetingChange
event of the YourContract
smart contract, starting from block number 31231 and filtering events where the premium parameter is true. The data property of the returned object contains an array of event objects, each containing the event parameters and (optionally) the block, transaction, and receipt data. The isLoading
property indicates whether the event logs are currently being fetched, and the error
property contains any error that occurred during the fetching process (if applicable).
Use this hook to fetch details about a deployed smart contract, including the ABI and address.
// ContractName: name of the deployed contract
const { data: deployedContractData } = useDeployedContractInfo(contractName);
This example retrieves the details of the deployed contract with the specified name and stores the details in the deployedContractData object.
Use this hook to get your contract instance by providing the contract name. It enables you interact with your contract methods.
For reading data or sending transactions, it's recommended to use useScaffoldContractRead
and useScaffoldContractWrite
.
const { data: yourContract } = useScaffoldContract({
contractName: "YourContract",
});
// Returns the greeting and can be called in any function, unlike useScaffoldContractRead
await yourContract?.greeting();
// Used to write to a contract and can be called in any function
import { useWalletClient } from "wagmi";
const { data: walletClient } = useWalletClient();
const { data: yourContract } = useScaffoldContract({
contractName: "YourContract",
walletClient,
});
const setGreeting = async () => {
// Call the method in any function
await yourContract?.setGreeting("the greeting here");
};
This example uses the useScaffoldContract
hook to obtain a contract instance for the YourContract
smart contract. The data property of the returned object contains the contract instance that can be used to call any of the smart contract methods.
Hint Typescript helps you catch errors at compile time, which can save time and improve code quality, but can be challenging for those who are new to the language or who are used to the more dynamic nature of JavaScript. Below are the steps to disable type & lint check at different levels
We run pre-commit
git hook which lints the staged files and don't let you commit if there is an linting error.
To disable this, go to .husky/pre-commit
file and comment out yarn lint-staged --verbose
- yarn lint-staged --verbose
+ # yarn lint-staged --verbose
By default, Vercel runs types and lint checks before building your app. The deployment will fail if there are any types or lint errors.
To ignore these checks while deploying from the CLI, use:
yarn vercel:yolo
If your repo is connected to Vercel, you can set NEXT_PUBLIC_IGNORE_BUILD_ERROR
to true
in a environment variable.
We have github workflow setup checkout .github/workflows/lint.yaml
which runs types and lint error checks every time code is pushed to main
branch or pull request is made to main
branch
To disable it, delete .github
directory
