Solidity-Cli
Compile solidity-code faster, easier and more reliable
Features
-
Caching
When you run the compilation as one step of your build-process, it could waste you much time always compiling the same contracts again and again. Solidity-Cli caches the compilation output and only recompiles when the code of your contract actually has changed.
-
Multi-Threading
Compiling multiple contracts can take very long when done on a single process in series. Solidity-Cli compiles multiple contracts with a dedicated process per contract.
-
Version-Discovery
Often you have different contracts with different solidity-versions. It is a struggle to install multiple compiler-versions in the same project. Solidity-Cli detects the version by the contracts code
pragma solidity 0.X.X;
and automatically installs it if needed. -
Imports
Solidity-Cli automatically manages the import-statements of your code.
import "./OtherContract.sol";
just works. -
Typescript-Support
When you use typescript, you no longer have to manually add typings to the compilation output. Solidity-Cli generates a javascript and a typescript-file which only has to be imported.
Usage
CLI
npm install -g solidity-cli
Compile all *.sol
files from one folder into the destination.
solidity -i './test/contracts/*.sol' -o ./test/compiled/
It's recommended to use solidity-cli inside of a script in your package.json
npm install solidity-cli --save-dev
Programmatically
Compile the given solidity-code.
;const compiled = await SolidityCli;
Compile the the given solidity-file.
;const compiled = await SolidityCli;
Compile all files from one folder and write the output to another.
;await SolidityCli;
