Remix Project is a rich toolset including Remix IDE, a comprehensive smart contract development tool. The Remix Project also includes Remix Plugin Engine and Remix Libraries which are low-level tools for wider use.
Remix IDE
Remix IDE is used for the entire journey of contract development by users of any knowledge level. It fosters a fast development cycle and has a rich set of plugins with intuitive GUIs. The IDE comes in 2 flavors and a VSCode extension:
Remix Online IDE, see: https://remix.ethereum.org
:point_right: Supported browsers: Firefox v100.0.1 & Chrome v101.0.4951.64. No support for Remix's use on tablets or smartphones or telephones.
Remix Desktop IDE, see releases: https://github.com/ethereum/remix-desktop/releases
Remix libraries
Remix libraries are essential for Remix IDE's native plugins. Read more about libraries here
Offline Usage
The gh-pages
branch of remix-live always has the latest stable build of Remix. It contains a ZIP file with the entire build. Download it to use offline.
Note: It contains the latest supported version of Solidity available at the time of the packaging. Other compiler versions can be used online only.
Setup
- Install Yarn and Node.js. See Guide for NodeJs and Yarn install<br/> Supported versions:
"engines": {
"node": "^20.0.0",
"npm": "^6.14.15"
}
- Install Nx CLI globally to enable running nx executable commands.
yarn global add nx
- Clone the GitHub repository (
wget
need to be installed first):
git clone https://github.com/ethereum/remix-project.git
- Build and Run
remix-project
:
- Move to project directory:
cd remix-project
- Install dependencies:
yarn install
or simply runyarn
- Build Remix libraries:
yarn run build:libs
- Build Remix project:
yarn build
- Build and run project server:
yarn serve
. Optionally, runyarn serve:hot
to enable hot module to reload for frontend updates.
Open http://127.0.0.1:8080
in your browser to load Remix IDE locally.
Go to your text editor
and start developing. The browser will automatically refresh when files are saved.
Production Build
To generate react production builds for remix-project.
yarn run build:production
Build can be found in remix-project/dist/apps/remix-ide
directory.
yarn run serve:production
Production build will be served by default to http://localhost:8080/
or http://127.0.0.1:8080/
Docker:
Prerequisites:
- Docker (https://docs.docker.com/desktop/)
- Docker Compose (https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)
Run with docker
If you want to run the latest changes that are merged into the master branch then run:
docker pull remixproject/remix-ide:latest
docker run -p 8080:80 remixproject/remix-ide:latest
If you want to run the latest remix-live release run.
docker pull remixproject/remix-ide:remix_live
docker run -p 8080:80 remixproject/remix-ide:remix_live
Run with docker-compose:
To run locally without building you only need docker-compose.yaml file and you can run:
docker-compose pull
docker-compose up -d
Then go to http://localhost:8080 and you can use your Remix instance.
To fetch the docker-compose file without cloning this repo run:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ethereum/remix-project/master/docker-compose.yaml > docker-compose.yaml
Troubleshooting
If you have trouble building the project, make sure that you have the correct version of node
, npm
and nvm
. Also, ensure Nx CLI is installed globally.
Run:
node --version
npm --version
nvm --version
In Debian-based OS such as Ubuntu 14.04LTS, you may need to run apt-get install build-essential
. After installing build-essential
, run npm rebuild
.
Unit Testing
Run the unit tests using library name like: nx test <project-name>
For example, to run unit tests of remix-analyzer
, use nx test remix-analyzer
Browser Testing
To run the tests via Nightwatch:
-
Install webdrivers for the first time:
yarn install_webdriver
-
Build & Serve Remix:
yarn serve
NOTE:
-
The
ballot
tests suite requires runningganache
locally. -
The
remixd
tests suite requires runningremixd
locally. -
The
gist
tests suite requires specifying a GitHub access token in .env file.
gist_token = <token> // token should have permission to create a gist
There is a script to allow selecting the browser and a specific test to run:
yarn run select_test
You need to have
-
selenium running
-
the IDE running
-
optionally have remixd or ganache running
Splitting tests with groups
Groups can be used to group tests in a test file together. The advantage is you can avoid running long test files when you want to focus on a specific set of tests within a test file.x
These groups only apply to the test file, not across all test files. So for example group1 in the ballot is not related to a group1 in another test file.
Running a group only runs the tests marked as belonging to the group + all the tests in the test file that do not have a group tag. This way you can have tests that run for all groups, for example, to perform common actions.
There is no need to number the groups in a certain order. The number of the group is arbitrary.
A test can have multiple group tags, this means that this test will run in different groups.
You should write your tests so they can be executed in groups and not depend on other groups.
To do this you need to:
- Add a group to tag to a test, they are formatted as #group followed by a number: so it becomes #group1, #group220, #group4. Any number will do. You don't have to do it in a specific order.
'Should generate test file #group1': function (browser: NightwatchBrowser) {
browser.waitForElementPresent('*[data-id="verticalIconsKindfilePanel"]')
- add '@disabled': true to the test file you want to split:
module.exports = {
'@disabled': true,
before: function (browser: NightwatchBrowser, done: VoidFunction) {
init(browser, done) // , 'http://localhost:8080', false)
},
- change package JSON to locally run all group tests:
"nightwatch_local_debugger": "yarn run build:e2e && nightwatch --config dist/apps/remix-ide-e2e/nightwatch.js dist/apps/remix-ide-e2e/src/tests/debugger_*.spec.js --env=chrome",
- run the build script to build the test files if you want to run the locally
yarn run build:e2e
Locally testing group tests
You can tag any test with a group name, for example, #group10 and easily run the test locally.
- make sure you have nx installed globally
- group tests are run like any other test, just specify the correct group number
method 1
This script will give you an options menu, just select the test you want
yarn run select_test
Run the same (flaky) test across all instances in CircleCI
In CircleCI all tests are divided across instances to run in parallel. You can also run 1 or more tests simultaneously across all instances. This way the pipeline can easily be restarted to check if a test is flaky.
For example:
'Static Analysis run with remixd #group3 #flaky': function (browser) {
Now, the group3 of this test will be executed in firefox and chrome 80 times. If you mark more groups in other tests they will also be executed.
CONFIGURATION
It's important to set a parameter in the .circleci/config.yml, set it to false then the normal tests will run. Set it to true to run only tests marked with flaky.
parameters:
run_flaky_tests:
type: boolean
default: true
