ERC20 Token CLI Tool

Learning CLI tool to create, deploy and interact with ERC20 tokens using Go.

Installation

1. Install Go. The project currently uses version 1.18.
2. Install npm.
3. Install solc compiler and abigen.
4. Run make in order to compile the contract and install the CLI tool.
5. Run tokencli --help and the tool help message will appear.

Contract Implementation

The main contract is already defined here and just implements the ERC20 interface.

The contract implementation overrides the decimal() method of the ERC20 interface to allow a 6 decimal representation. This because the generated bindings only accept a big.Int which can represent values up to 64-bit signed integrers (9*10^18 aprox.). This would mean that only a totalSupply of 9 full tokens would be possible with 18 decimals. Since this is just a learning tool, the default decimals have been lowered to 6, allowing more possibilities.
