Installation

npm install --save truffle-personalities

Usage

Pass the accounts array provided to Truffle's contract function to Truffle Personalities.

const trufflePersonalities = require('truffle-personalities');

contract('TestContract', function (accounts) {
  trufflePersonalities(accounts);

  accounts.ALICE === accounts[0];
  // => true

  accounts.BOB === accounts[1];
  // => true
});

Options

An options object may be passed as the second argument.

Examples

Pass a list of custom names to override the defaults. This example proposes the use of NOLAN as "nobody", or an uninvolved third party, and OWEN as a contract's owner.

trufflePersonalities(accounts, { names: ['NOLAN', 'owen'], toLowerCase: true});

accounts.NOLAN === undefined;
// => true

accounts.nolan === accounts[0];
// => true

accounts.owen === accounts[1];
// => true

accounts.alice === accounts[2];
// => true

Pass the global object as the context option in order to access the aliased addresses as standalone variables.

trufflePersonalities(accounts, { context: global });

accounts.ALICE === undefined;
// => true

ALICE === accounts[0];
// => true
