# Ganache Core



This is the core code that powers the Ganache application and the Ganache command line tool.



[Usage](#usage) | [Options](#options) | [Implemented Methods](#implemented-methods) | [Custom Methods](#custom-methods) | [Unsupported Methods](#unsupported-methods) | [Testing](#testing)



## Installation



`ganache-core` is written in JavaScript and distributed as a Node.js package via `npm`. Make sure you have Node.js (>= v8.9.0) installed, and your environment is capable of installing and compiling `npm` modules.



**macOS** Make sure you have the XCode Command Line Tools installed. These are needed in general to be able to compile most C based languages on your machine, as well as many npm modules.



**Windows** See our [Windows install instructions](https://github.com/trufflesuite/ganache-cli/wiki/Installing-ganache-cli-on-Windows).



**Ubuntu/Linux** Follow the basic instructions for installing [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/#debian-and-ubuntu-based-linux-distributions) and make sure that you have `npm` installed, as well as the `build-essential` `apt` package (it supplies `make` which you will need to compile most things). Use the official Node.js packages, *do not use the package supplied by your distribution.*



Using npm:



```Bash

npm install ganache-core

```



or, if you are using [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/):



```Bash

yarn add ganache-core

```



## Usage



As a [Web3](https://github.com/ethereum/web3.js/) provider:



```javascript

const ganache = require("ganache-core");

const web3 = new Web3(ganache.provider());

```

If web3 is already initialized:

```javascript

const ganache = require("ganache-core");

web3.setProvider(ganache.provider());

```

NOTE: depending on your web3 version, you may need to set a number of confirmation blocks

```javascript

const web3 = new Web3(provider, null, { transactionConfirmationBlocks: 1 });

```



As an [ethers.js](https://github.com/ethers-io/ethers.js/) provider:



```javascript

const ganache = require("ganache-core");

const provider = new ethers.providers.Web3Provider(ganache.provider());

```



As a general HTTP and WebSocket server:



```javascript

const ganache = require("ganache-core");

const server = ganache.server();

const provider = server.provider;

server.listen(port, function(err, blockchain) { ... });

```



## Options



Both `.provider()` and `.server()` take a single object which allows you to specify behavior of the Ganache instance. This parameter is optional. Available options are:



* `"accounts"`: `Array` of `Object`'s. Each object should have a `balance` key with a hexadecimal value. The key `secretKey` can also be specified, which represents the account's private key. If no `secretKey`, the address is auto-generated with the given balance. If specified, the key is used to determine the account's address.

* `"debug"`: `boolean` - Output VM opcodes for debugging

* `"blockTime"`: `number` - Specify blockTime in seconds for automatic mining. If you don't specify this flag, ganache will instantly mine a new block for every transaction. Using the `blockTime` option is discouraged unless you have tests which require a specific mining interval.

* `"logger"`: `Object` - Object, like `console`, that implements a `log()` function.

* `"mnemonic"`: Use a specific HD wallet mnemonic to generate initial addresses.

* `"port"`: `number` Port number to listen on when running as a server.

* `"seed"`: Use arbitrary data to generate the HD wallet mnemonic to be used.

* `"default_balance_ether"`: `number` - The default account balance, specified in ether.

* `"total_accounts"`: `number` - Number of accounts to generate at startup.

* `"fork"`: `string` or `object` - Fork from another currently running Ethereum client at a given block.  When a `string`, input should be the HTTP location and port of the other client, e.g. `http://localhost:8545`. You can optionally specify the block to fork from using an `@` sign: `http://localhost:8545@1599200`. Can also be a `Web3 Provider` object, optionally used in conjunction with the `fork_block_number` option below.

* `"fork_block_number"`: `string` or `number` - Block number the provider should fork from, when the `fork` option is specified. If the `fork` option is specified as a string including the `@` sign and a block number, the block number in the `fork` parameter takes precedence.

* `"network_id"`: Specify the network id ganache-core will use to identify itself (defaults to the current time or the network id of the forked blockchain if configured)

* `"time"`: `Date` - Date that the first block should start. Use this feature, along with the `evm_increaseTime` method to test time-dependent code.

* `"locked"`: `boolean` - whether or not accounts are locked by default.

* `"unlocked_accounts"`: `Array` - array of addresses or address indexes specifying which accounts should be unlocked.

* `"db_path"`: `String` - Specify a path to a directory to save the chain database. If a database already exists, `ganache-core` will initialize that chain instead of creating a new one. Note: You will not be able to modify state (accounts, balances, etc) on startup when you initialize ganache-core with a pre-existing database.

* `"db"`: `Object` - Specify an alternative database instance, for instance [MemDOWN](https://github.com/level/memdown).

* `"ws"`: `boolean` Enable a websocket server. This is `true` by default.

* `"account_keys_path"`: `String` - Specifies a file to save accounts and private keys to, for testing.

* `"vmErrorsOnRPCResponse"`: `boolean` - Whether or not to transmit transaction failures as RPC errors. Set to `false` for error reporting behaviour which is compatible with other clients such as geth and Parity. This is `true` by default to replicate the error reporting behavior of previous versions of ganache.

* `"hdPath"`: The hierarchical deterministic path to use when generating accounts. Default: "m/44'/60'/0'/0/"

* `"hardfork"`: `String` Allows users to specify which hardfork should be used. Supported hardforks are `byzantium`, `constantinople`, `petersburg`, `istanbul`, and `muirGlacier` (default).

* `"allowUnlimitedContractSize"`: `boolean` - Allows unlimited contract sizes while debugging (NOTE: this setting is often used in conjuction with an increased `gasLimit`). By setting this to `true`, the check within the EVM for contract size limit of 24KB (see [EIP-170](https://git.io/vxZkK)) is bypassed. Setting this to `true` **will** cause `ganache-core` to behave differently than production environments. (default: `false`; **ONLY** set to `true` during debugging).

* `"gasPrice"`: `String::hex` Sets the default gas price for transactions if not otherwise specified. Must be specified as a `hex` encoded string in `wei`. Defaults to `"0x77359400"` (2 `gwei`).

* `"gasLimit"`: `String::hex | number` Sets the block gas limit. Must be specified as a `hex` string or `number`(integer). Defaults to `"0x6691b7"`.

* `"callGasLimit"`: `number` Sets the transaction gas limit for `eth_call` and `eth_estimateGas` calls. Must be specified as a `hex` string. Defaults to `"0x1fffffffffffff"` (`Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER`).

* `"keepAliveTimeout"`:  `number` If using `.server()` - Sets the HTTP server's `keepAliveTimeout` in milliseconds. See the [NodeJS HTTP docs](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_server_keepalivetimeout) for details. `5000` by default.

## Custom Methods



Special non-standard methods that aren’t included within the original RPC specification:

* `evm_snapshot` : Snapshot the state of the blockchain at the current block. Takes no parameters. Returns the integer id of the snapshot created. A snapshot can only be used once. After a successful `evm_revert`, the same snapshot id cannot be used again. Consider creating a new snapshot after each `evm_revert` *if you need to revert to the same point multiple times*.

  ```bash

  curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data \

          '{"id":1337,"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"evm_snapshot","params":[]}' \

          http://localhost:8545

  ```

  ```json

  { "id": 1337, "jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": "0x1" }

  ```

* `evm_revert` : Revert the state of the blockchain to a previous snapshot. Takes a single parameter, which is the snapshot id to revert to. This deletes the given snapshot, as well as any snapshots taken after (Ex: reverting to id `0x1` will delete snapshots with ids `0x1`, `0x2`, `etc`...  If no snapshot id is passed it will revert to the latest snapshot. Returns `true`.

  ```bash

  # Ex: ID "1" (hex encoded string)

  curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data \

          '{"id":1337,"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"evm_revert","params":["0x1"]}' \

          http://localhost:8545

  ```

  ```json

  { "id": 1337, "jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": true }

  ```

* `evm_increaseTime` : Jump forward in time. Takes one parameter, which is the amount of time to increase in seconds. Returns the total time adjustment, in seconds.

  ```bash

  # Ex: 1 minute (number)

  curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data \

          '{"id":1337,"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"evm_increaseTime","params":[60]}' \

          http://localhost:8545

  ```

  ```json

  { "id": 1337, "jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": "060" }

  ```

* `evm_mine` : Force a block to be mined (independent of mining status: started | stopped). Takes one **optional** parameter, which is the timestamp a block should setup as the mining time. NOTE: the timestamp parameter should be specified in `seconds`. In JavaScript you would calculate it like this: `Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000);`

  ```bash

  # Ex: new Date("2009-01-03T18:15:05+00:00").getTime()

  curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data \

          '{"id":1337,"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"evm_mine","params":[1231006505000]}' \

          http://localhost:8545

  ```



  ```json

  { "id": 1337, "jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": "0x0" }

  ```
