Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Summary

Fast, lightweight ethereum dapp prototyping.

What is it? What's the difference compared to truffle?

Truffle team did a great job, if truffle framework works for you - you should stay with it.

Cobalt is an alternative take on ethereum dapp development. It's lightweight, no magic (globals etc.), instant compilation (for ultra-short modify-compile-test cycle) same [email protected] api in tests and production code, straight forward deployment without migrations (we think dapps have more complex deployment story than patterns based on traditional database migrations), small codebase.

Cobalt gives you decorated web3 with:

  • web3.require('Foo.sol') - which compiles solidity files and makes them available for deployment, and
  • const foo = async web3.deploy('Foo', [], { from, gas, links?: { ... }, ... }) - to deploy a contract.

That's all - the rest are helpers to simplify common tasks during dapp development.

Prerequisites

cobalt uses the solc command-line compiler, make sure you've got it:

brew update
brew upgrade
brew tap ethereum/ethereum
brew install solidity
brew linkapps solidity

Confirm it's installed:

solc --version

If you want to setup Circle CI or similar CI, you can fetch solc compiler with:

wget https://github.com/ethereum/solidity/releases/download/v0.4.23/solc-static-linux && chmod +x solc-static-linux && sudo mv solc-static-linux /usr/bin/solc

Installation

npm i -D @appliedblockchain/cobalt

Usage

See examples directory.

Deploy

To deploy a contract from your terminal you can use something like:

cobalt-deploy -g 5000000 -f 0xfa9c654833f3e977b0f7c07c60bb69b656a47af7 -s HelloWorld.sol

Example jest test

./contracts/Foo.sol

  pragma solidity ^0.5.9;

  contract Foo {
    string myVariable;

    function sendFoo(string data) public {
      myVariable = data;
    }

    function getFoo() constant public returns (string) {
      return myVariable;
    }
  }

./test/foo.test.js

const { join } = require('path')
const { map, first } = require('lodash')
const { web3, accounts } = require('@appliedblockchain/cobalt/web3')({
  root: join(__dirname, '..', 'contracts'), // Contracts directory: if removed, defaults to `./contracts`.
  accounts: 10,
  logger: console
})

const addresses = map(accounts, 'address')
const from = first(addresses)
const gas = 50000000

// Compile one or more .sol files.
web3.require('Foo.sol')

afterAll(async () => {
  web3.close()
})

describe('Foo', () => {
  let Foo

  test('deploys', async () => {
    const contractConstructorArgs = []
    Foo = await web3.deploy(
      'Foo',
      contractConstructorArgs,
      { from, gas }
    )

    expect(typeof Foo.options.address).toBe('string')
    expect(Foo.options.address.length > 1).toBe(true)
  })

  test('sets and gets data', async () => {
    const data = 'someData'
    await Foo.methods.sendFoo(data).send({ from, gas })

    const result = await Foo.methods.getFoo().call()

    expect(result).toEqual(data)
  })
})
