eth-toolset (Ethereum Development Toolset)

With Ethereum Development Toolset, you can easily:

Compile your smart contract code into binary code that is ready for deployment
Deploy your compile smart contract to Ethereum networks
Invoke smart contract methods from console (commandline) for testing purpose

Configuration

Change config values in the file config.js to make it works:

contractSourcePath: the path of folder that contains your .sol source files
builtContractPath: the build target folder path
deployedContractPath: the path of folder to save deployed contracts information

networks: define networks to deploy and interact with deployed smart contracts.

            Each network is in an entry of `networks` dictionary: `network_id: {...}`   
            _For example_:  
             ```
                    dev: {
                        url: "http://localhost:8545",
                        defaultAccount: {
                            address: '0x...',
                            privateKey: 'Your account private key'
                        },
                        gas: 6500000
                    }
            ```

Compile smart contract(s)

Run the following command in your terminal:

node compile.js

That will compile all .sol files in the contractSourcePath.
Each contract’s bytecode and definition will be saved as <builtContractPath>/<contract_name>.json file.
We will support compile single .sol file in the future.

Deploy smart contract

Run the following command in your terminal:

node deploy.js --contract=YourContractName [ --network=targetNetworkId ] [ --params='[param1, param2,...] ]'

In that:

—contract (required): your contract name
—network (optional): the Id of network (defined in the config key networks) that you want to deploy the contract to.
```
                  If skipped, the net work id `default` will be used.
```
—params (optional): the parameters’s values that will be passed to the smart contract’s constructor.
```
                 Skip this if the smart contract's constructor has no parameter. 
```

This finds the contract <builtContractPath>/YourContractName.json definition (generated by compile process) to deploy contract to the selected network.
The deployment information (contract address, transaction hash,… ) will be saved to <deployedContractPath>/YourContractName_<networkId>.json.
For example:

node deploy.js --contract=TradeLog --network=dev --params='[12345, "Mr Fun"]'

(if success, deployment info will be saved as <deployedContractPath>/TradeLog_dev.json)

Invoke smart contract method

Run in the terminal:

node invoke.js [ --network=networkId ] --contract=YourContractName --method=methodName --verb=call|send [ --params='[param1,param2]' ]

This will use the contract deployment info (from file <deployedContractPath>/YourContractName_<networkId>.json generated by the deployment process)
to build the contract and invoke the method.

Example:

Invoke send method: node invoke.js --network=dev --contract=TradeLog --method=recordTrade --verb=send --params='["000001","EUR", "USD", 2]'
Invoke call method: node invoke.js --network=dev --contract=TradeLog --method=getTradeRecord --verb=call --params='["000001"]'
