# Remix
|
|
|
|
Remix is a browser-based compiler and IDE that enables users to build **Ethereum contracts with Solidity language** and to debug transactions.
|
|
|
|
To try it out, visit [https://remix.ethereum.org](https://remix.ethereum.org).
|
|
|
|
Remix consists of many modules and in this repository you will find the Remix IDE (aka. Browser-Solidity).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Offline Usage
|
|
|
|
The `gh-pages` branch has always the latest stable build of Remix. It also contains a ZIP file with the entire build. Download it to use offline.
|
|
|
|
Note: it contains the latest release of Solidity available at the time of the packaging. No other compiler versions are supported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## INSTALLATION:
|
|
|
|
Install **npm** and **node.js** (see https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/installing-node), then do:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ethereum/browser-solidity.git
|
|
cd browser-solidity
|
|
npm install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## DEVELOPING:
|
|
|
|
Run `npm start` and open `http://127.0.0.1:8080` in your browser.
|
|
|
|
Then open your `text editor` and start developing.
|
|
The browser will automatically refresh when files are saved.
|
|
|
|
Most of the the time working with other modules (like debugger etc.) hosted in the [Remix repository](https://github.com/ethereum/remix) is not needed.
|
|
But in case changes have to be made in that repository too, the following command will help you link Remix with your local Browser-solidity repository:
|
|
|
|
After `npm install` run also:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm run pullremix
|
|
|
|
npm run linkremixcore
|
|
|
|
npm run linkremixlib
|
|
|
|
npm run linkremixsolidity
|
|
|
|
npm run linkremixdebugger
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Troubleshooting building
|
|
|
|
Some things to consider if you have trouble building the package:
|
|
|
|
- Make sure that you have the correct version of `node`, `npm` and `nvm`. You can find the version that is tested on Travis CI by looking at the log in the [build results](https://travis-ci.org/ethereum/browser-solidity).
|
|
|
|
Run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
node --version
|
|
npm --version
|
|
nvm --version
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- In Debian based OS such as Ubuntu 14.04LTS you may need to run `apt-get install build-essential`. After installing `build-essential` run `npm rebuild`.
|
|
|
|
## Unit Testing
|
|
|
|
Register new unit test files in `test/index.js`.
|
|
The tests are written using [tape](https://www.npmjs.com/package/tape).
|
|
|
|
Run the unit tests via: `npm test`
|
|
|
|
For local headless browser tests run `npm run test-browser`
|
|
(requires Selenium to be installed - can be done with `npm run selenium-install`)
|
|
|
|
Running unit tests via `npm test` requires at least node v7.0.0
|
|
|
|
## Browser Testing
|
|
|
|
To run the Selenium tests via Nightwatch serve the app through a local web server:
|
|
|
|
`npm run serve` # starts web server at localhost:8080
|
|
|
|
Then you will need to either:
|
|
|
|
1. Have a Selenium server running locally on port 4444.
|
|
- Run: `npm run test-browser`
|
|
|
|
2. Or, install and run SauceConnect.
|
|
- Run: `sc -u <USERNAME> -k <ACCESS_KEY>` (see `.travis.yml` for values)
|
|
- Run: `npm run browser-test-sc`
|
|
|
|
## Usage as a Chrome Extension
|
|
|
|
If you would like to use this as a Chrome extension, you must either build it first or pull from the `gh-pages` branch, both described above.
|
|
After that, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
- Browse to `chrome://extensions/`
|
|
- Make sure 'Developer mode' has been checked
|
|
- Click 'Load unpacked extension...' to pop up a file-selection dialog
|
|
- Select your `browser-solidity` folder
|
|
