Smart Contracts

Prepare solidity compiler

Usage: ioctl contract prepare

➜  ioctl contract prepare

...
Solidity compiler is ready now.

This process installs solc to you env. You can also install it by using the following commands.

On Ubuntu, you can use the following command

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ethereum/ethereum
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install solc

On macOS, you can use the following command

brew update
brew upgrade
brew tap ethereum/ethereum
brew install solidity@5

For more detailed instruction of installing solc, please refer to https://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/v0.5.0/installing-solidity.html.

Please note that ioctl currently supports solc 4.x and 5.x. Please make sure you install the current version.
