truffle-ext v0.1.8

truffle-ext

Extends truffle artifacts to provide state and event logging

Installation

yarn install

Usage

import the truffle-ext function and call it with your web3 instance. Use the requireContract function by passing it a truffle contract artifact.

  import truffleExt from 'truffle-ext'
  const { requireContract } = truffleExt(web3)
  const MyContract = requireContract(
    artifacts.require('./MyContract.sol')
  )

The returned contract instance provides the same functions as the truffle artifact. For example, call .new() to deploy a new instance of the contract

  const myContract = await MyContract.new()

You can also use .at() or .deployed()

State Logging

Use the asynchronous state() function to get current contract state

  let state = await myContract.state()

The state object provides an output() function, which returns human readable output for the state object

  console.log(state.output())

  # example output

  MyContract
  -----------------
  Address:     0x8a7dcafdda1707289a40a6bd701a6b8fb788cd34
  Balance:     0
  Calls:
    fooInt(): 0
    fooAddress(): 
      Address: 0xc32de2edac1bec88174b15dc0b6c412b4b23c302
      Balance: 48080040500000000000
    bar(): true

Options can be passed to the state() function to make multiple parameterized calls

  state = await myToken.state({
    calls: [
      ['balanceOf', '0x6704fbfcd5ef766b287262fa2281c105d57246a6'],
      ['balanceOf', '0x9e1ef1ec212f5dffb41d35d9e5c14054f26c6560'],
      ['balanceOf', '0xce42bdb34189a93c55de250e011c68faee374dd3']
    ]
  })
  console.log(state.output())

  # example output

  MyToken
  ----------
  Address:     0x6b9857484ce82c9cc053b18c07841631b8e74fe2
  Balance:     150000000000000000000
  Calls:
    name(): My Token
    totalSupply(): 50000000000000000000
    decimals(): 18
    symbol(): TKN
    balanceOf(0x6704fbfcd5ef766b287262fa2281c105d57246a6): 50000000000000000000
    balanceOf(0x9e1ef1ec212f5dffb41d35d9e5c14054f26c6560): 50000000000000000000
    balanceOf(0xce42bdb34189a93c55de250e011c68faee374dd3): 50000000000000000000

Transaction Logging

Execute transactions as you would with truffle

  let tx = await myContract.updateSomeState(1000)

Transactions return an object that provides an output() function to get human readable output for the events that were called during the transaction

  console.log(tx.output())

  # example output

  Events
  ------
  
  SomeStateUpdated (
    stateValue: 1000
  )

  OtherStateUpdated (
    someOtherState: true
  )

Event logging

Log all events for an instance of a contract by calling logAllEvents()

  myContract.logAllEvents()

Or log all events for all contract instances by calling truffleExt with logEvents: true option

  const { requireContract } = truffleExt(web3, { logEvents: true })

  # example output

  MyContract.SomeEvent (
    fooAddress: 0xf9c1705fd0945258023af32ddc911bbedb6ca123
    barInt: 0
  )

  OtherContract.SomeOtherEvent (
    foo: false
  )
