INSTRUCTIONS TO RUN GeneDrugRepo SMART CONTRACTS IN TRUFFLE

---

---

---

Part 1: Configuring Truffle Directories

---

1. Install Truffle via the following terminal command:

   npm install -g truffle

2. Make a directory named "truffle" and navigate to it.

3. Initialize Truffle via the following terminal command:

   truffle init

4. This will create four sub-directories and a config file: /build, /contracts, /migrations, /test, and truffle-config.js.

5. Move the smart contract solidity files to the /contracts dir.

6. Create a file in the /migrations dir named 2_deploy_contracts.js with the following contents:

   var GDR = artifacts.require("./GeneDrugRepo.sol"); module.exports = function(deployer) { deployer.deploy(GDR); };

7. Move the gdr_train javascript test files to /test.

---

Part 2: Running Contracts in Truffle Test Network

---

1. Open terminal, cd to truffle dir, run the following command:

   truffle develop

2. Open a second terminal window. Run the test files to observe contract behavior via the following command:

   truffle test ./test/[name of javascript test file]

3. Alternatively, to deploy contracts to a truffle test network and call transactions, see the instructions on the Truffle documentation: site: https://www.trufflesuite.com/docs/truffle/getting-started/running-migrations
