requidity v0.2.2

requidity

A require system for importing and compiling solidity contracts.

var Web3 = require('web3'), web3 = new Web3();
web3.setProvider(new web3.providers.HttpProvider("http://localhost:8545"));

var Requidity = require('requidity'), requidity = new Requidity(web3);

// async
requidity('./contracts/greeter.sol').then((compiledContract) => {
  // do something awesome!
});

// async multiple
requidity(['./contracts/greeter.sol', './contracts/token.sol']).then((compiledContracts) => {
  // now you have an array of compiled contracts!
});

// or sync ... if you really want to ...
var otherCompiledContract = requidity('./contracts/token.sol').sync();

Why?

previously I would :

var solc = require('solc'),
  fs = require('fs');

fs.readFile('path/to/contract.sol', (err, buffer) => {
  if (err) throw err;
  compiledContracts = web3.eth.compile.solidity(buffer.toString());
});

or worse :

var Web3 = require('web3'),
  fs = require('fs');

var web3 = new Web3();
web3.setProvider(new web3.providers.HttpProvider("http://localhost:8545"));

fs.readFile('path/to/contract.sol', (err, buffer) => {
  if (err) throw err;
  compiledContracts = solc.compile(buffer.toString());
});

and now its as simple as requidity('some/contract.sol') :)

Installing

npm install requidity ;)
