TypeChain VS hardhat-deploy

In the two previous posts of this serie, we have learned how to build a house-swap ethereum smart-contract using solidity and how to test it using hardhat. In this post, we will create an angular application and we will install ethers to interact with the smart-contract and ethers-typechain to generate typescript types from our contract json abi.

For the wallet connection, we use WAGMI. The chat contract is connected within a React context, so that all components can interact with it. Contract interactions are also type-checked via TypeChain. These types are created on the contract development phase, but you can easily copy & paste them to your types directory at frontend, or wherever you store them.

Two parts are generally independent, except when it comes to typing. To ease contract interaction, TypeChain generates types for each contract, which can be accessed by both the Frontend and Contracts parts.

Uses typechain to auto-generate typescript bindings for compiled contracts, useful for auto-completion in your frontend dApps

Typechain GitHub Repository

AFAIK it's used quite a lot in web3, especially with React apps. Also check TypeChain ;) https://github.com/ethereum-ts/TypeChain

I can also recommend Typechain (https://github.com/ethereum-ts/TypeChain) separately or in combination with HardHat (https://hardhat.org).

Have you checked out Typechain? https://github.com/ethereum-ts/TypeChain

You can check TypeChain that creates abstraction over contracts connection based on ABI that you provide. You can find ABIs for your contract in the Hardhat build folder.

Attempting to implement this repository: https://github.com/wighawag/hardhat-deploy

or we can use the hardhat-deploy community plugin to deploy our contracts more professionally.

I imagine you have figured out how to do it by now. Consider using this plugin - https://github.com/wighawag/hardhat-deploy It will make your life easier and adds hre.getNamedAccounts() and hre.getUnnamedAccounts() Also it is exposed in the environment when running tests

Deploying consisted of using hardhat and its fantastic hardhat-deploy plugin to automagically manage deployments for us.

Next, lets install a package called hardhat-deploy which makes working with hardhat 2x easier & fun 👻

Hardhat-deploy now supports zkSync (Github)

Uses hardhat-deploy to keep track of deployments (upgradable or normal)

Once the hardhat project is initialized, Next we install hardhat-deploy which will make our life easier with deployments and tests😁

Install hardhat-deploy plugin as npm install hardhat-deploy and import it inside 'hardhat.config.js' file as:

Just found https://github.com/wighawag/hardhat-deploy, which is pretty much what I was looking for
