TronBox

TronBox is a tool for developing, testing, and deploying smart contracts. It is designed for blockchains using the TRON Virtual Machine (TVM).

Built-in smart contract compilation, linking, deployment, and binary management.
External script runner that executes scripts within a TronBox environment.
Interactive console for direct contract communication.
Automated contract testing for rapid development.
Scriptable, extensible deployment & migrations framework.
Network management for deploying to any number of public & private networks.

TronBox is a fork of Truffle.

Quick Start

Install

Before you can use TronBox, install it using the npm command. For details, see Install TronBox.

$ npm install -g tronbox

Note: To verify the PGP signature, see here.

Create a default Tron-Box Project

You can create a bare project without smart contracts, run:

$ tronbox init

Once this operation is completed, you'll now have a project structure with the following items:

contracts/: Directory for Solidity contracts migrations/: Directory for scriptable deployment files test/: Directory for test files for testing your application and contracts tronbox.js: TronBox configuration file

For those getting started, you can use TronBox Boxes, which offers example applications and project templates. For details, see Create a TronBox Project.

Compile

If you want to only compile, run:

$ tronbox compile

To compile all contracts, use the --compile-all option. Specify a network using the --network option. Network name must exist in the configuration. For details, see Compile a Project.

Migrate

To deploy our smart contracts, you need to connect to a blockchain. Use the TronBox Runtime Environment to create and interact with the blockchain. For details, see Contract Deployment (Migrations).

To run your migrations, run the following:

$ tronbox migrate

Test

To run all tests, run:

$ tronbox test

Alternatively, you can specify a path to a specific file you want to run: tronbox test ./path/to/test/file.js. For details, see Test Your Contracts.

Interact with the contract

To interact with the contract, run:

$ tronbox console

You will see the following prompt:

$ tronbox(development)>

The name in the parentheses of the prompt tronbox(development)> is the network that is currently connected to. For details, see Interact with a Contract.

Integrity Check

The package files will be signed using a GPG key pair, and the correctness of the signature will be verified using the following public key:
```
pub: 82C1 BB84 1BFA FD01 9CA6  1ACB E98F C329 87F3 BF76
