My First Smart Contract

A simple Solidity smart contract and test project.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/BlockChain-R/my-first-smart-contract.git

2. Install the dependencies:

    npm install

Usage

Starting a local blockchain:

To start a local blockchain using Ganache

npm run start

This will start a local blockchain on port 7545

Compile the smart contract:

npm run compile

This will generate the contract bytecode and ABI in the build/ directory.

Running tests:

To run the project tests using Jest, run:

npm run test

This will run the tests in the test/ directory. The tests will deploy the contract to the local blockchain and run the tests.

Dependencies

• web3 - A collection of libraries that allow you to interact with a local or remote Ethereum node using HTTP, IPC, or WebSocket.
• ganache-cli - A command-line interface for running a local Ethereum network for testing and development.
• jest - A JavaScript testing framework that can be used for testing Solidity contracts.
• solc - A Solidity compiler that can be used to compile Solidity contracts to bytecode and ABI.
