Start Developing

To start developing on the smart contracts, you will need the solidity compiler solc version 0.8.0. To download it into bin, run:

curl -L -o $HOME/bin/solc https://github.com/ethereum/solidity/releases/download/v0.8.0/solc-static-linux && chmod +x $HOME/bin/solc

You can then clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/trustlines-protocol/contracts.git
cd contracts

Then create and activate a fresh virtualenv:

virtualenv -p python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate

Finally, to install all needed dependencies and compiling the contracts use the following command:

make install

Pre-commit hooks#

You should consider initializing the pre-commit hooks. The installed git pre-commit hooks run flake8 and black among other things when committing changes to the git repository

pre-commit install
pre-commit run -a
