IC Canister Plugin
Overview
A Webpack plugin to find your Internet Computer canister Ids and create environment variables for them.
Installation
$ npm i -D @solec/ic-webpack-plugin
Usage
In your webpack.config.js
file, add this plugin to your plugins
array:
const IcWebpackPlugin = require('@solec/ic-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = {
// ...
plugins: [
// ...
new IcWebpackPlugin(),
],
};
Using an alternative network
The plugin will automatically load the canister IDs from .dfx/local/canister_ids.json
.
If you need to specify a different network, you can set the DFX_NETWORK
variable.
In your dfx.json
file, add another network, for example:
{
"networks": {
// ...
"testnet": {
"bind": "127.0.0.1:8000", // insert your network's URL here
"type": "ephemeral"
}
}
}
Create your canisters on the network:
$ dfx canister --network testnet create --all
Then deploy your canisters:
$ dfx deploy --network testnet
The plugin will automatically pick up the network that you've selected through dfx
.
Production
When --network
is set to ic
through dfx
, or NODE_ENV
is to production
then canister IDs will be read from a canister_ids.json
file in the root of your directory.
That file should be structured like this:
{
"${canister_name}": {
"ic": "${canister-id}"
},
"${canister_name}": {
"ic": "${canister-id}"
}
}
