In addition to Webpack and React, this box adds: react-router, redux and redux-auth-wrapper for authentication powered by UPort. The easiest way to get started with UPort.
-
Install Truffle globally.
npm install -g truffle
-
Download the box. This also takes care of installing the necessary dependencies.
truffle unbox react-uport
-
Run the development console.
truffle develop
-
Compile and migrate the smart contracts. Note inside the development console we don't preface commands with
truffle
.compile migrate
-
Run the webpack server for front-end hot reloading (outside the development console). Smart contract changes must be manually recompiled and migrated.
// Serves the front-end on http://localhost:3000 npm run start
-
Truffle can run tests written in Solidity or JavaScript against your smart contracts. Note the command varies slightly if you're in or outside of the development console.
// If inside the development console. test // If outside the development console.. truffle test
-
Jest is included for testing React components. Compile your contracts before running Jest, or you may receive some file not found errors.
// Run Jest outside of the development console for front-end component tests. npm run test
-
To build the application for production, use the build command. A production build will be in the build_webpack folder.
npm run build
-
How do I use this with the EthereumJS TestRPC?
It's as easy as modifying the config file! Check out our documentation on adding network configurations.
-
Why is there both a truffle.js file and a truffle-config.js file?
truffle-config.js
is a copy oftruffle.js
for compatibility with Windows development environments. Feel free to it if it's irrelevant to your platform. -
Where is my production build?
The production build will be in the build_webpack folder. This is because Truffle outputs contract compilations to the build folder.
-
Where can I find more documentation?
This box is a marriage of Truffle and a React setup created with create-react-app. Either one would be a great place to start!
