This project was generated with Angular CLI version 1.0.0.

An angular4 + truffle starter app. Write, compile & deploy smart contracts for Ethereum.

Featured on State of the Dapps

Demo

Create a coin with an initial supply and send an amount to your Ethereum wallet address

Note: This demo was made at the time this project used Angular2. It has since upgraded to Angular4 and works the exact same way :)

How to use

There are 2 small parts to successfully running this project.

Part 1

1. git clone https://github.com/Nikhil22/angular-truffle-starter-dapp.git
2. cd angular-truffle-starter-dapp
3. npm install

Part 2

For the second part, you're going to need a working copy of angular-cli (aka. ng) installed in your environment (npm install -g @angular/cli). And if you're new, install ganache-cli to run a local blockchain RPC server(npm install -g ganache-cli). After that, simply run ganache-cli in a new tab.

Both of these cli-tools are required before moving forward, and be sure you're connected to an Ethereum client before running the commands below. A great browser based tool is MetaMask.io and will suit your needs for getting this demo and working quickly. Be sure to SWITCH the Metamask network (in the upper left hand corner of the pop-up) to Localhost 8545. Otherwise you'll log an web-browser error when you navigate to app in a web browser.

And then in the original tab, run:

4. truffle compile to compile your contracts
5. truffle migrate to deploy those contracts to the network
6. ng serve. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
7. Make sure there are no errors in browser console

You can also run npm run compile-start to automatically run all 3 steps

Code scaffolding

Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive/pipe/service/class/module.

Build

Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the -prod flag for a production build.

Running unit tests

1. Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.
2. Run truffle test to run tests associated with your solidity smart contracts. The test folder for this can be found in the test directory at the root level of this project

Running end-to-end tests

Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via Protractor. Before running the tests make sure you are serving the app via ng serve.
