`cargo-contract` is a CLI tool which helps you develop smart contracts in Parity's ink!.
ink! is a Rust [eDSL](https://wiki.haskell.org/Embedded_domain_specific_language) which allows you to write smart contracts for blockchains built on the [Substrate](https://github.com/paritytech/substrate) framework.

## Installation
In addition to Rust, installation requires a C++ compiler that supports C++17.
Modern releases of gcc and clang, as well as Visual Studio 2019+ should work.
- Step 1: `rustup component add rust-src`.
- Step 2: `cargo install --force --locked cargo-contract`.
- Step 3: Install dependencies for linting.
- (MacOS) `brew install openssl`
- ```
export TOOLCHAIN_VERSION=nightly-2023-12-28
rustup install $TOOLCHAIN_VERSION
rustup component add rust-src --toolchain $TOOLCHAIN_VERSION
rustup run $TOOLCHAIN_VERSION cargo install cargo-dylint dylint-link
```
- Step 4: (**Optional**) Install [Docker Engine](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install)
to be able to produce verifiable builds.
You can always update the `cargo-contract` binary to the latest version by running the Step 2.
### Installation using Docker Image
If you prefer to use Docker instead we have a Docker image
[available on the Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/paritytech/contracts-ci-linux):
```bash
# Pull the latest stable image.
docker pull paritytech/contracts-ci-linux
# Create a new contract in your current directory.
docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/sources paritytech/contracts-ci-linux \
cargo contract new --target-dir /sources my_contract
# Build the contract. This will create the contract file under
# `my_contract/target/ink/my_contract.contract`.
docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/sources paritytech/contracts-ci-linux \
cargo contract build --manifest-path=/sources/my_contract/Cargo.toml
```
**Windows:** If you use PowerShell, change `$(pwd)` to `${pwd}`.
```bash
# Create a new contract in your current directory (in Windows PowerShell).
docker run --rm -it -v ${pwd}:/sources paritytech/contracts-ci-linux \
cargo contract new --target-dir /sources my_contract
```
### Verifiable builds
Some block explorers require the Wasm binary to be compiled in the deterministic environment.
To achieve it, you should build your contract using Docker image we provide:
```bash
cargo contract build --verifiable
```
You can find more detailed documentation how to use the image [here](/build-image/README.md).
## Usage
You can always use `cargo contract help` to print information on available
commands and their usage.
For each command there is also a `--help` flag with info on additional parameters,
e.g. `cargo contract new --help`.
##### `cargo contract new my_contract`
Create an initial smart contract with some scaffolding code into a new
folder `my_contract` .
The contract contains the source code for the [`Flipper`](https://github.com/paritytech/ink-examples/blob/main/flipper/lib.rs)
contract, which is about the simplest "smart" contract you can build ‒ a `bool` which gets flipped
from `true` to `false` through the `flip()` function.
##### `cargo contract build`
Compile the contract into optimized WebAssembly bytecode, generate metadata for it,
and bundle both together in a `.contract` file, which you can use for
deploying the contract on-chain.
##### `cargo contract check`
Check that the code builds as WebAssembly. This command does not output any `.contract`
artifact to the `target/` directory.
##### `cargo contract upload`
Upload a contract to a `pallet-contracts` enabled chain. See [extrinsics](crates/extrinsics/README.md).
##### `cargo contract instantiate`
Create an instance of a contract on chain. See [extrinsics](crates/extrinsics/README.md).
##### `cargo contract call`
Invoke a message on an existing contract on chain. See [extrinsics](crates/extrinsics/README.md).
##### `cargo contract encode`
Encodes a contract's input calls and their arguments
##### `cargo contract decode`
Decode a contract's input or output data.
This can be either an event, an invocation of a contract message, or an invocation of a contract constructor.
The argument has to be given as hex-encoding, starting with `0x`.
##### `cargo contract remove`
Remove a contract from a `pallet-contracts` enabled chain. See [extrinsics](crates/extrinsics/README.md).
##### `cargo contract info`
Fetch and display contract information of a contract on chain. See [info](docs/info.md).
##### `cargo contract verify`
Verify that a given contract binary matches the build result of the specified workspace
##### `cargo contract schema-generate`
Generate schema and print it to STDOUT.
##### `cargo contract verify-schema`
Verify a metadata file or a contract bundle containing metadata against the schema file.
##### `cargo contract storage`
Fetch and display the storage of a contract on chain.
##### `cargo contract rpc`
Invoke an RPC call to the node. See [rpc](docs/rpc.md).
## Publishing
In order to publish a new version of `cargo-contract`:
- Bump all crate versions, we move them in lockstep.
- Execute `cargo update` to update `Cargo.lock`.
- Make sure your PR is approved by one or more core developers.
- Publish `metadata` ➜ `analyze` ➜ `transcode` ➜ `build` ➜ `extrinsics` ➜ `cargo-contract`.
- Merge you PR and push a tag `vX.X` with your version number: `git tag -s vX.X.X && git push origin vX.X.X`.
- Create a GitHub release with the changelog entries.
