Support named parameter type entry for sc build commands
Current behavior
Do after #623 is merged.
Currently the sc build_run
and sc load_run
commands require numeric entry of the contract parameter types defined in https://github.com/CityOfZion/neo-python/blob/e3780126f9cf8175f9f3c7ad27f36f2baae20508/neo/SmartContract/ContractParameterType.py#L29-L39
Expected behavior
We can improve the user experience by allowing for named inputs, such that these numbers don't have to be remembered.
I'd like to implement this.
I would suggest both complete names and some abbreviations, for instance "sig", "bool", "int", "str", "arr"
👌 ping @jseagrave21 to avoid double work; as you also indicated you might want to pick this up.
@LysanderGG go for it! I started investigating yesterday but don't have anything written yet. cc @ixje

I like that it would support both. The original issue was that we didn't want the user to have to remember anything proprietary.
My original thought was requiring a list entry (like params for RPC) So, replace
070202
With
[string, integer, integer]
Also, I was toying with the idea of still supporting the original format. But that is definitely not a must imo.
I think it might be good to support the old format. There might be old tutorial out there that still use it, or people might prefer it (as it's less typing)
