Smart Contract Deployment

Preconditions

Before initiating the smart contract deployment process, ensure that the following prerequisites are meticulously addressed:

  1. MetaMask Account Setup:

    • Establish a MetaMask account, meticulously selecting the Goerli testnet.
    • Acquire test ether from GoerliETH faucets, an essential step for successful contract deployment.
    • Explore Example 1 for reference.

  2. Alchemy Account Configuration:

    • Register an account on Alchemy, the pivotal infrastructure for Ethereum development.
    • Within Alchemy, create an application tailored for the Goerli testnet.

    For comprehensive guidance on these prerequisites, please consult the tutorial provided at the end.

Deployment Procedure

Execute the following systematic steps to deploy the smart contract with precision:

  1. Configuration of .env File:

    • Generate a .env file with meticulous attention to detail.

    • Define the essential variables as follows:

      API_URL = "https://eth-goerli.g.alchemy.com/v2/{your-api-key}"
PRIVATE_KEY = "{your-metamask-private-key-of-the-training-account-with-goerli-testnet}"

  2. Compile the Smart Contract:

    • Initiate the compilation process for the smart contract with the following command:

      npx hardhat compile

  3. Smart Contract Deployment:

    • Execute the deployment script with the following command:

      npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network goerli
