LVES.io

Final project for Consensys Bootcamp 2021

Description

Lves lets you journal about life’s most important events and record the inner workings of your mind. Time and time again, journaling has been shown to improve your state of mind and clarify your thoughts. Now, you can write with the confidence that your life will be recorded on the blockchain, existing long after you are gone…your life doesn’t end with death. Together, we are recording the complex, varied lives of all humans who are alive today, and all humans yet to come.

File structure

  • artifacts - Folder in which compiled smart contract artifacts are stored
  • client - Front-end application scaffolded using vite
    • dist - production build of application
    • src - directory containing front-end application code
      • assets - holds image files
      • components - React components
      • context - React Context definitions for application state management
      • contracts - Smart contract files generated during compilation (necessary to be within src file so it is copied from outside the folder)
      • typechain-types - Typescript contract definitions and code created by Typechain
      • utils - Utility functions
      • views - Application views or "pages"
  • contracts - Smart contract files generated during compilation
  • test - Smart contract unit tests

Prerequisites

  • Install Node.js (14.x+) Node install
  • Have the Metamask browser extension installed. Chrome / Brave Extension Firefox Extension
  • Add a "Custom RPC" in Metamask with Network Name - Localhost 8545 New RPC URL - http://127.0.0.1:8545 Chain ID - 1337 (Note: Make sure to use 127.0.0.1 and not localhost as localhost seemingly does not resolve correctly on Brave and Chrome browsers). See the image below on where to start adding a custom network.

Local Development

  • Install all project dependencies by running npm run install-all-deps
  • Add a .env.local file to the /client directory and add the following VITE_CHAIN_ID=1337
  • Start the Hardhat development console npm run start-local-node. The chain id is configured to be 1337. When your local node is running you should see the text Started HTTP and WebSocket JSON-RPC server at http://127.0.0.1:8545/` showing that the port is running on 8545.
  • Compile and deploy contracts by opening a new tab in your terminal and from within the root directory running npm run deploy:dev
  • Grab your ETH Wallet Address from Metamask and add some test ETH to it with npm run faucet ${YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS}. Example: npm run faucet 0xf39fd6e51aad88f6f4ce6ab8827279cfffb92266
  • Start the client by opening a new tab in your terminal and from within the root directory running npm start-client
  • In your browser, navigate to http://localhost:7777 where you should see the app running

Troubleshooting

  • If you are testing locally and come across an error that says something similar to Nonce too high. Expected nonce to be 0 but got 19. Note that transactions can't be queued when automining., follow the steps in this link to fix. https://dev.to/nmassi/comment/1dafo.

Compiling for Ropsten

  • update your .env file int he root of the project to include you ROPSTEN_URL and PRIVATE_KEY (You can generate this from alchemy.io)
  • run npm run deploy:ropsten.
  • once this has compiled update the VITE_CHAIN_ID in .env.local in the client folder to the chain id for Ropsten, which is 3. VITE_CHAIN_ID=3
  • run npm run build-client (After this is run your frontend app can be deployed to the host of your choosing and will be expecting a contract on Ropsten)

Testing Smart Contracts

Smart contract tests are in the test folder in the top level of the project. To run them use the following command npm run test.
