veritru: A JavaScript repository from CoDreamSoftware

VeriTru by CoDream Software

Installation

First ensure you are in a new and empty directory.

Clone repository and navigate to the repo
```
git clone
cd veritru
```
Install Truffle globally.
```
npm install -g truffle
```

Create a .env.local file and copy the contents from .env.example, this is to securely store your env variables. Don't forget to pass all the env variables to next.config.js as well to be able to use them in your project.

 ## .env.local
 INFURA_API_KEY="Your Infura API Key"
 INFURA_IPFS_ID="Your Infura IPFS Key"
 INFURA_IPFS_SECRET="Your Infura IPFS Secret Key"
 CONTRACT_ADDRESS="Contract Address of your contract"

// next.config.js
env: {
     INFURA_API_KEY: process.env.INFURA_API_KEY,
     INFURA_IPFS_ID: process.env.INFURA_IPFS_ID,
     INFURA_IPFS_SECRET: process.env.INFURA_IPFS_SECRET,
     CONTRACT_ADDRESS: process.env.CONTRACT_ADDRESS,
}

In the ethereum directory, you can see the directory structure of truffle.
```
cd ethereum
ls
/contracts /migrations /test truffle-config.js
```
Compile and migrate the smart contracts.
```
truffle compile
truffle migrate
```
Back in the veritru project directory, we can run the Nextjs app. Smart contract changes must be manually recompiled and migrated.
```
// create another terminal (i.e. not in the truffle develop prompt)
npm run dev
```
Truffle can run tests written in JavaScript against your smart contracts which you find at the ethereum/test/ directory. Note the command varies slightly if you're in or outside of the development console.
```
// inside the development console.
truffle develop
test

// outside the development console..
truffle test
```
To build the application for production, use the build script. A production build will be in the /build folder.
```
// ensure you are inside the client directory when running this
npm run build
```
