Truffle is supported via Janus and there are two ways to get it working.
By loading private keys into Janus/Qtum
Using @qtumproject/hdwallet-provider
Lets unbox an example truffle box and walk through running a migration
First, go to an empty directory and create a new directory and unbox
Copy mkdir react-box
cd react-box
truffle unbox qtumproject/react-box
Output should look like this
Copy Starting unbox...
=================
✔ Preparing to download box
✔ Downloading
✔ Cleaning up temporary files
✔ Setting up box
Unbox successful, sweet!
Commands:
Compile: truffle compile
Migrate: truffle migrate
Test contracts: truffle test
Test dapp: cd client && npm test
Run dev server: cd client && npm run start
Build for production: cd client && npm run build
Next, install dependencies
Generating a BIP44 mnemonic to use with truffle
You can use Mnemonic Code Converter to generate a mnemonic for local development
if you plan on using this tool for mainnet, you can download a release and run it completely offline.
And then lets take a look at the truffle-config.js file
Here, you will need to copy your mnemonic into the regtest mnemonic space
Copy const HDWalletProvider = require("@qtumproject/hdwallet-provider");
module.exports = {
// See <http://truffleframework.com/docs/advanced/configuration>
// for more about customizing your Truffle configuration!
networks: {
// The Janus node has private keys hosted
janus: {
host: "127.0.0.1",
port: 23889,
network_id: "*",
},
regtest: {
provider: () => new HDWalletProvider({
mnemonic: "erode phrase labor rack surge risk armor uniform together prevent crack alley",
providerOrUrl: "http://localhost:23889",
}),
gasPrice: "0x5d21dba000"
},
testnet: {
provider: () => new HDWalletProvider({
mnemonic: "",
providerOrUrl: "https://testnet-janus.qiswap.com/api/",
}),
gasPrice: "0x5d21dba000"
},
mainnet: {
provider: () => new HDWalletProvider({
mnemonic: "",
providerOrUrl: "https://janus.qiswap.com/api/",
}),
gasPrice: "0x5d21dba000"
},
},
compilers: {
solc: {
version: "^0.8.0",
settings: {
optimizer: {
enabled: true,
runs: 1,
},
},
},
},
};
Launching Janus/Qtum
Copy # Configure Docker networking (only need be done once)
docker network create --driver bridge qtum
# Launch Qtum regtest
docker run --network=qtum -it --rm \
--name qtumd_regtest \
-v `pwd`:/root \
-p 23888:23888 \
-p 3889:3889 \
qtum/qtum \
qtumd -regtest -txindex -addrindex=1 -logevents \
-rpcbind=0.0.0.0:3889 -rpcallowip=0.0.0.0/0 -rpcuser=qtum -rpcpassword=testpasswd
# Launch Janus
docker run --network=qtum -it --rm \
--name janus_regtest \
-v `pwd`:/root \
-p 23889:23889 \
qtum/janus:latest \
--bind 0.0.0.0 --dev --qtum-rpc=http://qtum:testpasswd@qtumd_regtest:3889
Seeding regtest with Qtum
You can get your address from the truffle console once Qtum is running.
Copy truffle console --network regtest
truffle(regtest)> accounts
[
'0x63c4953002B935C3CA925af419DFCE86C057AB95',
'0xEccAAa32664B8499931DFB4aFD076a61e01C12F8',
'0xB118812cCb1C79a6d0849D5393Ee6475Da5b8bdE',
'0x733722f989763E4243D82FB8667d6DEB08BEC2A8',
'0xe2ce59EBaC7c1B129c5623B105D62aD64eDDe645',
'0x2974BE44127169546fC09E7C251C757892C0E990',
'0x26c0573F40B575F663CD846Fc2D811C13a61866d',
'0x175eE832683EbE001f01C7c944e585cD799FacB6',
'0xC76e10C8B54e942a5b9C6E024571D4A2A9fd4a4B',
'0x9014cedEDF69C02b43a46e414Ac643281A14acd3'
]
Then you can seed regtest using either qtum-cli or Janus
note that fromhexaddress requires dropping the hex prefix 0x
Qtum block rewards need to be at least 2000 blocks old to be used
Copy # Get base58 address from hex
docker exec qtumd_regtest \
qtum-cli \
-rpcuser=qtum \
-rpcpassword=testpasswd \
fromhexaddress 63c4953002B935C3CA925af419DFCE86C057AB95
> qSeuYqETzKqcVn3seaTRQ1U8jcaR1QHYQj
# Seed regtest with Qtum
docker exec qtumd_regtest \
qtum-cli \
-rpcuser=qtum \
-rpcpassword=testpasswd \
generatetoaddress 2005 qSeuYqETzKqcVn3seaTRQ1U8jcaR1QHYQj
# Or do it in one command
docker exec qtumd_regtest \
qtum-cli \
-rpcuser=qtum \
-rpcpassword=testpasswd \
generatetoaddress 2005 `\
docker exec qtumd_regtest \
qtum-cli \
-rpcuser=qtum \
-rpcpassword=testpasswd \
fromhexaddress 63c4953002B935C3CA925af419DFCE86C057AB95`
Or you can use dev_generatetoaddress
Janus RPC call to do this
note that generating this many blocks will cause Janus to timeout waiting for a response from Qtum, but Qtum will still generate the blocks
Copy # Directly calling dev_generatetoaddress via Curl
curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:23889' \
--header 'Content-Type: text/plain' \
--data-raw '{
"method": "dev_generatetoaddress",
"params": [
2005,
"63c4953002B935C3CA925af419DFCE86C057AB95"
]
}'
# response
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","result":["1369920b45f482096b2159788c2f1cd576b0e37affc176df07904d8a841f8590", ...]}
truffle migrate
Now that your local regtest environment has Qtum we can deploy code with truffle
Copy truffle migrate --network regtest
