truffle-plugin-abigen

This truffle plugin generates the required files needed to use Geths abigen to generate contract bindings in golang.

Installation

1. Install the plugin with npm

   npm install @darienmh/truffle-plugin-abigen
   // or
   yarn add @darienmh/truffle-plugin-abigen

2. Add the plugin to your truffle.js or truffle-config.js file

   module.exports = {
     /* ... rest of truffle-config */
   
     plugins: [
       "@darienmh/truffle-plugin-abigen"
     ]
   }

3. Optional configuration in your truffle.js or truffle-config.js file

    module.exports = {
      /* ... rest of truffle-config */
   
      abigen: {
        exportFolder: './abiExported/',
        extensionAbi: '.json',
        generateBin: false,
        exportConsole: true
      }
    }

Usage

Before running ensure that you've compiled your contracts:

truffle compile

To generate specific contract bindings:

truffle run abigen SomeContractName AnotherContractName

Alternatively, to generate bindings for all your contracts:

truffle run abigen

You can also configure the package.json file to generate abi for all your contracts on compile:

{
   /* ... rest of package.json */
   "scripts": {
      /* ... rest of package.json */
      "compile": "truffle compile --all && truffle run abigen"
   }
}

npm run compile
# or
yarn compile

Debugging

You can pass an optional --debug flag into the plugin to display debug messages during the verification process. This is generally not necessary, but can be used to provide additional information when the plugin appears to malfunction.
