Truffle3.0集成NodeJS并完全跑通(附详细实例,可能的错误)

升级到Truffle3.0

如果之前安装的是Truffle2.0版本,需要主动升级到Truffle3.0,两者的语法变化有点大。

由于Truffle是一个命令行工具,需要更新全局空间安装的Truffle

$ sudo npm update -g truffle

注意需要root权限运行命令,否则可能会报错无足够的访问权限,导致升级失败。

安装成功后,可以通过版本命令查看当前的版本,如出现下述类似字样说明升级成功:

$ truffle version
Truffle v3.1.2

初始化工程

使用Truffle3.0初始化工程

我们创建一个新工程目录,并在truffle3目录内初始化Truffle框架。

$ mkdir truffle3 && cd truffle3
$ truffle init
Downloading project...
Project initialized.

  Documentation: http://truffleframework.com/docs

Commands:

  Compile: truffle compile

  Migrate: truffle migrate
  Test:    truffle test

我们创建了一个新工程目录truffle3,进入到这个目录,使用truffle init命令,初始化了一个全新的Truffle 3.0的工程,工程目录如下:

truffle3-project

集成NodeJS

truffle console命令会默认集成web3,合约抽象层。如果想要在自已的NodeJS环境使用Truffle合约,就要手动集成这两个模块。在集成前,我们需要创建工程的npm包管理环境,首先进入truffle3工程目录,使用npm init来初始化工程的npm包管理环境:

$ npm init
This utility will walk you through creating a package.json file.
It only covers the most common items, and tries to guess sensible defaults.

See `npm help json` for definitive documentation on these fields
and exactly what they do.

Use `npm install <pkg> --save` afterwards to install a package and
save it as a dependency in the package.json file.

Is this ok? (yes) yes

如果不进行npm init初始化,就进行后续模块安装,会报如下错误:

由于没有包管理环境,所以对package.json的包依赖写入会失败。报错npm WARN enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/TryBlockchain/package.json'。要解决这个问题,需要使用npm init来初始化当前工程的包管理环境。

安装NodeJS中用到的Truffle合约抽象层运行环境

这个工具是Truffle提供的,用于在NodeJS和浏览器中集成Truffle的合约抽象运行环境1

$ npm install truffle-contract

安装NodeJS中用到的Truffle运行时需要的web3环境

$ npm install web3
- bignumber.js@2.0.7 node_modules/web3/node_modules/bignumber.js
truffle3@1.0.0 /Users/TryBlockchain/develop/blockchain_workspace/truffle3
└── web3@0.18.2

我们使用npm install web3即可安装web3模块。如果没有集成web3环境,就跑相关的代码,可能会报下述错:

$ node main.js
/Users/TryBlockchain/develop/blockchain_workspace/truffle3/main/main.js:4
var provider = new Web3.providers.HttpProvider("http://localhost:8545");
                   ^

创建自己的合约文件

新增加测试合约

truffle3/contracts目录下创建测试合约文件Test.sol

pragma solidity ^0.4.4;

contract Test{
    function f() returns (string){
        return "method f()";
    }
    function g() returns (string){
        return "method g()";
    }
}

在上述代码中,我们提供两个函数,f()g()。分别返回用于说明它们是哪个函数的返回结果的字符串说明。

增加deploy配置

修改migrations/2_deploy_contracts.js为如下:

var ConvertLib = artifacts.require("./ConvertLib.sol");
var MetaCoin = artifacts.require("./MetaCoin.sol");
var Test = artifacts.require("./Test.sol");

module.exports = function(deployer) {
  deployer.deploy(ConvertLib);
  deployer.link(ConvertLib, MetaCoin);
  deployer.deploy(MetaCoin);
  deployer.deploy(Test);
};

上述代码主要增加两行,一行为var Test = artifacts.require("./Test.sol");声明一个新的合约文件实例并命名为Test;增加的另一行内容deployer.deploy(Test);用于将Test进行部署。

编译合约

下面我们使用truffle migrate --reset来强制重编译并发布所有合约,由于合约移植是懒编译的,如果发现已经发布过,且发布的版本号没有变化就不会再发布,所以使用--reset。请务必弄清楚为何使用--reset再使用这个命令2。运行truffle migrate前,需要确认节点处于运行状态。

$ truffle migrate --reset
Using network 'development'.

集成示例详解

引入web3

要在NodeJS中使用Truffle,我们要先引入web3

var Web3 = require('web3');
var provider = new Web3.providers.HttpProvider("http://localhost:8545");

//省略了无关代码
//合约初始化
var Test = contract(/*合约JSON*/);

//设置连接
Test.setProvider(provider);

在上例中,我们先通过var Web3 = require('web3');引入依赖,并初始化一个实例Web3,并为实例设置了HttpProvider

truffle-contractcontract()方法

要在NodeJS初始化Truffle编译好的合约,要使用contract()方法。请将Truffle3.0编译后的.json文件,一般在build/contracts/Test.json。请将此文件的内容放入contract()的括号内。

var contract = require("truffle-contract");

//请使用使用Truffle3.0编译的.json文件内容
var Test = contract(/*参数是`JSON`对象,放入Truffle3.0生成的.json文件内容*/)

然后使用.deployed()at(/*某个地址*/)来进行调用[trufflecontract]。

contract()引入的JSON定义有问题

如果引入的JSON数据有问题,你可能会看到下面的错误:

$ node main.js
/Users/TryBlockchain/develop/blockchain_workspace/truffle3/node_modules/truffle-contract/node_modules/web3/lib/web3/contract.js:56
    contract.abi.filter(function (json) {

                ^

    at Module.load (module.js:488:32)
    at tryModuleLoad (module.js:447:12)

如果你出现了上述报错,请再次确认是否原封不动的把合约编译后的.json文件的内容,复制进contract()的括号内的,不要加任何东西,因为.json文件内就是一个JSON对象。

默认帐户地址

truffle-contract框架默认没有读取coinbase的默认地址,所以需要按如下方式主动设置:

//没有默认地址,会报错
//UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 3): Error: invalid address
Test.defaults({
  from : "0x299127d72e28cb92d09f856aaedeb139d1e7e74a"
});

否则会报错UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 3): Error: invalid address3

语法注意

对于新的Truffle3.0语法,需要注意的是函数调用方式要遵循调用规则4。对于一个不会改写区块链状态的f()函数,使用instance.f.call();;而对于一个会改写区块链状态的函数f(),使用instance.f()。底层在实现调用上,会使用不同gas计算方式。

var instance;
Test.deployed().then(function(contractInstance) {
  instance = contractInstance;
  return instance.f.call();
}).then(function(result){
  console.log(result);
  return instance.g.call();
}).then(function(result){
  console.log(result);
});

如果对于一个不会改写状态f(),使用instance.f()会返回对应的交易状态结果。
