Solc is the solidity compiler. It usually runs on the Ethereum node. Browser-solidity is an example for Solc in the browser, but it's hard to pick apart just the solc library from the entire application. This repo is a wrapper that helps you do that. browser-solc is a browserified version of solc-js.
###Demo app
You should use browser-solc if you:
- Want to do
solc.compile()
in your Dapp - Don't want to worry about browserify the solc-js npm package
##Usage:
<!-- Include this in your HTML page -->
<script src="http://code.dappbench.com/browser-solc.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
//Get a list of all possibile solc versions
BrowserSolc.getVersions(function(soljsonSources, soljsonReleases) {
console.log(soljsonSources);
console.log(soljsonReleases);
});
//Load a specific compiler version
BrowserSolc.loadVersion("soljson-v0.4.6+commit.2dabbdf0.js", function(compiler) {
source = 'contract x { function g() {} }';
optimize = 1;
result = compiler.compile(source, optimize);
console.log(result);
});
##Development
To build browser-solc.js, run browserify src/index.js -g yo-yoify -o browser-solc.js; babel browser-solc.js --out-file browser-solc.js
Note: browser-solc does NOT implement the whole interface of solc-js.
