TEALScript Starter

This package provides a starter template for developing Algorand smart contracts using the TEALScript programming language. It includes scripts for compiling, deploying, and interacting with smart contracts.

Prerequisites

Before using this package, ensure that you have the following prerequisites installed:

• Node.js (v18 or later)
• Yarn package manager (v1.22 or later)

Getting Started

1. Clone this repository to your local machine.
2. Install the package dependencies by running yarn install.
3. Customize the .env file with the appropriate environment variables for your deployment.
4. Edit TEALScript template to your unique use-case.
5. Compile the TEALScript contract by running yarn compile.
6. Deploy the contract to the Algorand testnet by running yarn deploy testnet.
7. Interact with the deployed contract using the provided scripts. For example, you can call a contract method by running yarn call testnet <app_id> <method_name>.

Scripts

The package includes the following scripts:

• compile: Compiles the TEALScript contract and saves the compiled files to the build directory.
• deploy <network>: Deploys the contract to the specified network (e.g. local, testnet, mainnet). In order to deploy, you will be asked to specify numGlobalByteSlices etc.
• call <network> <app_id> <method_name> [args...]: Calls a method on the deployed contract with the specified network, app ID, method name, and optional arguments.

Please note that you may need to provide additional configuration or parameters depending on your specific use case.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues or errors during the deployment or interaction process, please refer to the error messages and ensure that you have met the prerequisites and configured the environment variables correctly.
