Optimistic Ethereum Smart Contracts

@eth-optimism/contracts contains the various Solidity smart contracts used within the Optimistic Ethereum system. Some of these contracts are deployed on Ethereum ("Layer 1"), while others are meant to be deployed to Optimistic Ethereum ("Layer 2").

Within each contract file you'll find a comment that lists:

  1. The compiler with which a contract is intended to be compiled, solc or optimistic-solc.
  2. The network upon to which the contract will be deployed, OVM or EVM.

A more detailed overview of these contracts can be found on the community hub.

Usage (npm)

If your development stack is based on Node/npm:

npm install @eth-optimism/contracts

Within your contracts:

import { SomeContract } from "@eth-optimism/contracts/SomeContract.sol";

Guide for Developers

Setup

Install the following:

Clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/contracts.git
cd contracts

Install npm packages:

yarn install

Running Tests

Tests are executed via yarn:

yarn test

Run specific tests by giving a path to the file you want to run:

yarn test ./test/path/to/my/test.spec.ts

Compiling and Building

Easiest way is to run the primary build script:

yarn build

Running the full build command will perform the following actions:

  1. build:contracts - Compile all Solidity contracts with both the EVM and OVM compilers.
  2. build:typescript - Builds the typescript files that are used to export utilities into js.
  3. build:copy - Copies various other files into the build folder.
  4. build:dump - Generates a genesis state from the contracts that L2 geth will use.
  5. build:typechain - Generates TypeChain artifacts.

You can also build specific components as follows:

yarn build:contracts
