Solidity Shell

An interactive Solidity shell with lightweight session recording and remote compiler support.

💾 npm install -g solidity-shell

Oh, did you know that we automatically fetch a matching remote compiler when you change the solidity pragma? It is as easy as typing pragma solidity 0.5.0 and solidity-shell will do the rest 🙌.

Hints

pragma solidity <version> attempts to dynamically load the selected compiler version (remote compiler, may take a couple of seconds).
use { <statement>; } to ignore a calls return value.
Sessions can be saved and restored using the .session command. Your previous session is always stored and can be loaded via .session load previous (not safe when running concurrent shells).
.reset completely removes all statements. .undo removes the last statement.
See what's been generated under the hood? call .dump.
Settings are saved on exit (not safe when running concurrent shells). call config set <key> <value> to change settings like ganache port, ganache autostart, etc.
$_ is a placeholder for the last known result. Feel free to use that placeholder in your scripts :)
Special commands are dot-prefixed. Everything else is evaluated as Solidity code.
import "<path>" assumes that path is relative to the current working-dir (CWD) or {CWD}/node_modules/. There's experimental support for HTTPs URL's. You can disable https resolving by setting » .config set resolveHttpImports false.

 »  import "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts/master/contracts/token/ERC721/IERC721.sol"

Usage

Cmdline Passthru

Any arguments provided after an empty -- are directly passed to ganacheCmd (default: ganache-cli). This way, for example, you can start a solidity shell on a ganache fork of mainnet via infura. Check ganache-cli --help for a list of available options.

⇒  solidity-shell -- --fork https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/yourApiToken

 General:
    .help                                ... this help :)
    .exit                                ... exit the shell


 Source:
    .fetch 
            interface <address> <name> [chain=mainnet] ... fetch and load an interface declaration from an ABI spec on etherscan.io
    .inspect
            bytecode                     ... show bytecode of underlying contract
            opcodes                      ... show disassembled opcodes of underlying contract
            storageLayout                ... show variable to storage slot mapping for underlying contract
            storage <slot> <num> [<address>] ... show raw storage at slot of underlying deployed contract 
            deployed                     ... debug: show internal contract object


 Blockchain:
    .chain                         
            restart                      ... restart the blockchain service
            set-provider <fork-url>      ... "internal" | <shell-command: e.g. ganache-cli> | <https://localhost:8545>
                                            - fork url e.g. https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/yourApiKey  
            accounts                     ... return eth_getAccounts
            eth_<X> [...args]            ... initiate an arbitrary eth JSONrpc method call to blockchain provider.

 Settings:
    .config                              ... show settings
            set <key> <value>            ... set setting
            unset <key>                  ... unset setting
 Session:
    .session                             ... list sessions
            load <id>                    ... load session
            save <id>                    ... save session
    .undo                                ... undo last command
    .reset                               ... reset cmd history. start from scratch.

 Debug:
    .proc                                ... show processes managed by solidity-shell (ganache)
    .dump                                ... show template contract
    .echo                                ... every shell needs an echo command
