Solc Maven Plugin

This is a Solc Maven plugin written in Java (Sonar analysis).

Check the wiki to understand its design principles.

WARNING: the plugin is not deployed on Maven Central yet. You have to build it from sources.

WARNING: The Solc Maven Plugin might merge with the Web3J's Maven plugin (check Design principles).

The plugin supports the following goals :

• help: display help
• check: check the Solc's version declared in your POM against the Solc version running on your system
• compile: compile Solidity file into what Solc compiler is capable of (abi, bin, ...)
• wrap: generate Java wrapper by leveraging web3j library (needs abi and bin files compiled from your contracts)

Version compatibility

solc-maven-plugin is built and tested against the most recent releases of Solc. Right now these are 0.4.11 - ?.

The plugins uses web3j 2.2.2 for Java wrappers generation.

Example

This configures the actual plugin:

• to check 0.4.1 version against your actual Solc compiler's version installed on your OS
• to build your solidity contracts
• to generate Java wrappers into src/main/java directory
