# Loom Truffle Provider

Adapter that allows `Truffle Suite` to communicate with a `Loom DappChain`.

## Install

```bash
yarn add loom-truffle-provider
# or
npm install loom-truffle-provider
```

## Requirements

```
Node >= 8
```

## Truffle

```
npm install -g truffle
```

## Description

Loom Truffle Provider makes it possible to deploy smart contracts written in Solidity and using Truffle Suite on a Loom
DappChain. Here's an example Truffle configuration that uses the Loom Truffle Provider...

```javascript
// truffle.js
const { readFileSync } = require('fs')
const LoomTruffleProvider = require('loom-truffle-provider')

const chainId = 'default'
const writeUrl = 'http://127.0.0.1:46658/rpc'
const readUrl = 'http://127.0.0.1:46658/eth'

// ./privateKey file contains a base64 encoded key generated by the command:
// loom genkey -a publicKey -k privateKey
const privateKey = readFileSync('./privateKey', 'utf-8')

const loomTruffleProvider = new LoomTruffleProvider(chainId, writeUrl, readUrl, privateKey)

// Create 10 extra accounts, useful for tests
loomTruffleProvider.createExtraAccounts(10)

module.exports = {
networks: {
loom_dapp_chain: {
provider: loomTruffleProvider,
network_id: '*'
}
}
};
```

### Accounts managed by LoomTruffleProvider

In order to access accounts on `LoomTruffleProvider` you should use the function `getProviderEngine`
which will return the `LoomProvider` giving access to properties `accounts`.

```Javascript
const loomTruffleProvider = new LoomTruffleProvider(chainId, writeUrl, readUrl, privateKey)
const loomProvider = loomTruffleProvider.getProviderEngine()

console.log("Accounts and Private Keys", loomProvider.accounts)
```

Another way to create extra accounts is to use a `BIP-39 mnemonic`, which will create extra accounts
from a set of words.

```Javascript
// Using the mnemonic code to create 10 accounts
loomTruffleProvider.createExtraAccountsFromMnemonic("gravity top burden ship student car spell purchase hundred improve check genre", 10)
```

Note that the account at index `0` is created from the key passed to the `LoomTruffleProvider` constructor,
while the other accounts are created from the `mnemonic`.

## Notes

* Make sure that the `Loom DappChain` node is running before executing any `Truffle` command.
* The `Truffle` `network` option must be set to `loom_dapp_chain` when using the example configuration
above, e.g. `truffle deploy --network loom_dapp_chain`.
