Brownie Simple Storage Project
- A new Brownie project with
brownie init
- Project Basic Explanation
- Adding
SimpleStorage.sol
to thecontracts
folder - Compiling with
brownie compile
- Brownie deploy script
-
def main
is brownie's entry point
-
- brownie defaults to a
development
ganache
chain that it creates - Placing functions outside of the
main
function - brownie
accounts
- 3 Ways to Add Accounts
-
accounts[0]
: Brownie's "default" ganache accounts- Only works for local ganache
-
accounts.load("...")
: Brownie's encrypted command line (MOST SECURE)- Run
brownie accounts new <name>
and enter your private key and a password
- Run
-
accounts.add(config["wallets"]["from_key"])
: Storing Private Keys as an environment variable, and pulling from ourbrownie-config.yaml
- You'll need to add
dotenv: .env
to yourbrownie-config.yaml
and have a.env
file
- You'll need to add
-
- 3 Ways to Add Accounts
