Setup

Build and run project locally

Backo smart contracts are developed using Truffle. The frontend client is using React. The following steps assume you have Node, npm/yarn, truffle and ganache-cli installed.

Install all the dependencies of the project

yarn install

Run a local blockchain

ganache-cli --blockTime 15

Specifying the blockTime is important as Backo smart contracts contain time-dependent logic

Compile smart contracts

truffle compile

Run migrations

truffle migrate --reset --network development

Start local frontend client server

yarn start

Testing

Tests can be run with the command

truffle test

It is recommended to adjust the minBlocksPerRound constant in the Backo.sol contract to a lower number (e.g: 50). Advancing too many blocks may cause the tests to be slow.
