Install ioctl by
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iotexproject/iotex-core/master/install-cli.sh | sh
You can set ioctl endpoint to your local server by
ioctl config set endpoint localhost:14014 --insecure
Also, you can use it for interacting with mainnet or testnet
MainNet secure: api.iotex.one:443
MainNet insecure: api.iotex.one:80
TestNet secure: api.testnet.iotex.one:443
TestNet insecure: api.testnet.iotex.one:80
You can create a bash script to switch mainet and testnet
ioctl config set endpoint api.iotex.one:443 && echo 'switched to mainnet!'
and one to switch to testnet
ioctl config set endpoint api.testnet.iotex.one:443 && echo 'switched to testnet'
They are useful if you switch between mainnet and test frequently.
use remix to compile your smart contract and find the bytecode, remove the first two chararacters 0x. Then deploy using
#ioctl action deploy -s [signer] -l [gas limit] -b [bytecode]
To prepare to invoke individual functions, you need to deploy smart contract using VM on remix.
Read contract. find bytecode of a read function.
#ioctl action read -s [signer] -l [gas limit] -b [bytecode]
Invoke contract. find the bytecode of a write function, then call through ioctl.
#ioctl action invoke -s [signer] -l [gas limit] -b [bytecode]
get into docker's runtime. since v1.1, IoTeX uses alphine linux https://alpinelinux.org/. It is a miminal linux image. You need to install software/pkg as needed.
sudo docker exec -it iotex /bin/sh
install curl
apk add --no-cache curl
install golang
