Drizzle Truffle Box
This box comes with everything you need to start using smart contracts from a react app with Drizzle. It includes drizzle
, drizzle-react
and drizzle-react-components
to give you a complete overview of Drizzle's capabilities.
Installation
First ensure you are in a new and empty directory.
-
Run the
unbox
command vianpx
and skip to step 3. This will install all necessary dependencies. A Create-React-App is generated in theapp
directory.npx truffle unbox drizzle
-
Alternatively, you can install Truffle globally and run the
unbox
command.npm install -g truffle truffle unbox drizzle
-
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
-
In the
app
directory, we run the React app. Smart contract changes must be manually recompiled and migrated.// in another terminal (i.e. not in the truffle develop prompt) cd app 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.
// inside the development console test // 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.
// ensure you are inside the app directory when running this npm run test
-
To build the application for production, use the build script. A production build will be in the
app/build
folder.// ensure you are inside the app directory when running this npm run build
FAQ
-
Where do I find more information about Drizzle?
Check out our documentation or any of the three repositories (
drizzle
,drizzle-react
,drizzle-react-components
). -
Where is my production build?
The production build will be in the
app/build
folder after runningnpm run build
in theapp
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!
-
How does the provider work in this box?
This box uses a custom provider, which does not interact with MetaMask. Keep an eye on this space, as this will be updated once Drizzle can sync up with MetaMask.
