Running locally

Installation

The repository may be cloned locally and installation triggered as follows.

git clone [email protected]:nahmii/nb-sandbox-contracts.git
cd nb-sandbox-contracts
npm install --ignore-scripts

NOTE: The reason for installing with the --ignore-scripts option is first and foremost to prevent the post-install script of package @consensys/universal-token from running. For the usage of @consensys/universal-token as dependency in this project the execution of postinstall is obsolete.

:warning: Send updated .env vars to other deployers. It is important to ensure that all deployers of this project have the latest version of the .env variables. This is because the release updates the addresses to the contracts and it is crucial that everyone has the same information. Please share the contents of the .env file with other deployers through chat or any other preferred method of communication. This will help ensure that everyone is working with the most up-to-date information and that the deployment process runs smoothly.

Alternatively, you can use terminal:

NPM package is used to distribute the smart contract types and contract address instances to other projects e.g. dsp-wallet.
