Uses truffle to compile smart contracts and to migrate BetManager.sol to the network.
- truffle
- geth
Contracts can be compiled by running the following command:
truffle compile
The binary will be located in /build/contracts/
In order to migrate to a locally run network, there is need to start a geth node. Migration can be done using:
truffle migrate --network development
However for migrating to the Ropsten network, a geth node must be run on the computer. This can be done using:
geth --testnet --rpc --rpcapi "admin,db,eth,debug,miner,net,shh,txpool,personal,web3" --syncmode "light" --rpccorsdomain '*' --rpcaddr 0.0.0.0 --rpcport 8545 --cache 8192
Note: It might take a while to find a peer since we are using the Ropsten test network with a light geth node.
The first account managed by the geth client must be unlocked to allow transactions to be sent. Firsly the geth javascript console must be started using:
geth attach http://0.0.0.0:8545
Unlock the account using:
personal.unlockAccount(eth.accounts[0],"password",0)
If an account has not been added to the geth client, it can be done as so:
personal.importRawKey("private key","password")
Other useful commands for the javascript console can be found here
Migration to the Ropsten test network can be done using:
truffle migrate --network ropsten
It is important to note the deployed address of BetManager.sol since the Daemon and Frontend rely on that contract to manage all the Betting events.
