<h1 align=center> Vulcan </h1>

test workflow GitHub release Telegram

Development framework for Foundry projects, with a focus on developer experience and readability.

Built on top of forge-std :heart:

Initially, Vulcan will provide functionality similar to what is already included in forge's VM and forge-std.

Over time, Vulcan will grow to include more functionality and utilities, eventually becoming a feature-rich development framework.

Installation

Install the latest release by running:

$ forge install nomoixyz/vulcan

Or install a specific release with:

$ forge install nomoixyz/vulcan@x.y.z

Release tags can be found here

Usage

See the Vulcan Book for detailed usage information.

Why Vulcan?

Our goal is to provide:

Vulcan test example:

import { Test, expect, commands, Command, CommandResult, println } from "vulcan/test.sol";

contract TestSomething is Test {

    function testSomething() external {
        // Format strings with rust-like syntax
        println("Hello {s}", abi.encode("world!")); // Hello world!

        // Format numbers as decimals
        println("Balance: {u:d18}", abi.encode(1e17)); // Balance: 0.1

        // Nice external command API!
        Command memory ping = commands.create("ping").args(["-c", "1"]);
        CommandResult pingResult = ping.arg("etherscan.io").run();

        // Rust-like results
        bytes memory pingOutput = pingResult.expect("Ping command failed").stdout;

        println("Ping result: {s}", abi.encode(pingOutput));

        // Expect style assertions!
        expect(pingResult.isError()).toBeFalse();
        expect(pingResult.isOk()).toBeTrue();

        // And much more!
    }
}
