Algo Builder

Algob is the CLI (Command Line Interface) for Algo Builder. Think about it as an Ethereum Truffle but for Algorand projects.

This package provides a variety of high level functions like, executeTx, mkTxParams, Deployer, etc. These functions help in making the development phase of algorand applications easier by acting as a middleware between the developer and algosdk.

Please read the main README file for details about the project and algob. This file provides a development description about the algob package.

Contributing

When working on algob, we use CLI directly from the build directory using the following command:

yarn run algob:dev

It will create a project-dev directory as a copy of the template project (sample-project). In that directory you should update the config.algob.js. The algob:dev command will run all algob in that directory.

Also, it my be helpful to link the binary:

yarn link

You can run another alogb cli on dev project by following pattern yarn algob:dev:cmd <sub command>. e.g:

yarn algob:dev:cmd test
yarn algob:dev:cmd deploy
