Lesson 6: ganache Local RPC

[Cesarioo]

Hi,
Once I run the ganache UI on windows and the blockchains creates itself, Brownie does not recognize that it has launched while I type " brownie run .\scripts\deploy.py" and launches an other ganache while I already have one on my computer instead of using it (for permanant ganache)
"Attached to local RPC client" does not appear

Hello @Cesarioo yes this happens because brownie uses the default ganache-cli network if you don't specify another one, so if you want to use your ganache UI network you should add it first to brownie networks.

For example let's suppose your ganache UI looks like this:

Yo can add it using:

brownie networks add Ethereum ganache-local host=http://127.0.0.1:7545 chainid=5777

Where:

Ethereum: is the netowrk type
ganache-local: is the name, you can name it as you want.
The hos and the chainid comes from ganache as you can see on the image.

So when deploying you must use something like this:

brownie run scripts/deploy.py --network ganache-local

thanks @Richardwg I'll mark this question as solved. Best regards

If brownie doesn't auto-find the network you spinned up on the Ganache GUI, you can go to the GUI, find the gear icon(settings), go to server, and set the server's port to 8545. Save & Restart. That way the next time you try to deploy brownie fill find it and attach to it.
But this way, brownie won't remember your deployments, because you didn't explicitly add the network to brownie.

does this still import from get_account() ? the local account with the rinkeby wallet address?

Hello @Vonnie187 Could you reformulate for question please? Didn't catch up what you meant.
