Usage

Login

The login command is used to authenticate the Tenderly CLI with your Tenderly Dashboard.

tenderly login

Command Flags

Flag	Default	Description
--authentication-method	/	Pick the authentication method. Possible values are email or access-key
--email	/	The email used when authentication method is email
--password	/	The password used when authentication method is email
--access-key	/	The token used when authentication method is access-key

--help	/	Help for login command

Init

The init command is used to connect your local project directory with a project in the Tenderly Dashboard.

tenderly init

Command Flags

Flag	Default	Description
--project	/	The project name used for generating the configuration file
--create-project	false	Creates the project provided by the --project flag if it doesn't exist
--re-init	false	Force initializes the project if it was already initialized
--help	/	Help for init command

Example how to initialize tenderly project

For Tenderly CLI to work you need to have a deployments directory inside your project. You can generate that one using hardhat-tenderly

1. To install hardhat-tenderly run.

npm install --save-dev @tenderly/hardhat-tenderly

2. Add the following statement to your hardhat.config.js:

require("@tenderly/hardhat-tenderly");

Or, if you are using typescript:

import "@tenderly/hardhat-tenderly"

3. Then you need to call it from your scripts (using ethers to deploy a contract):

const Greeter = await ethers.getContractFactory("Greeter");
const greeter = await Greeter.deploy("Hello, Hardhat!");

await greeter.deployed()

await hre.tenderly.persistArtifacts({
    name: "Greeter",
    address: greeter.address,
})

persistArtifacts accept variadic parameters:

const contracts = [
    {
        name: "Greeter",
        address: "123"
    },
    {
        name: "Greeter2",
        address: "456"
    }
]

await hre.tenderly.persistArtifacts(...contracts)

4. Run: npx hardhat compile to compile contracts
5. Run: npx hardhat node --network hardhat to start a local node
6. Run: npx hardhat run scripts/sample-script.js --network localhost to run a script
7. And at the end now when deployments directory was built you can run tenderly init

Push

If you are using Hardhat, take a look at docs instead of using this command.

The push command is used to add your contracts to the Tenderly Dashboard.

Note that the push command is used only for adding contracts that are deployed to a public network.

tenderly contracts push

Command Flags

Flag	Default	Description
--networks	/	A comma separated list of network ids to push
--tag	/	Optional tag used for filtering and referencing pushed contracts
--project-slug	/	Optional project slug used to pick only one project to push (see advanced usage)
--help	/	Help for push command

Advanced usage

It is possible to push to multiple projects by editing the tenderly.yaml file and providing a map of projects and their networks. To do this remove the already provided project_slug property and replace it with the projects property like the example below;

projects: # running tenderly push will push the smart contracts to all of the provided projects
  my-cool-project:
    networks:
      - "1" # mainnet
      - "5" # goerli
  my-other-project:
  # if the networks property is not provided or is empty the project will be pushed to all of the migrated networks
  company-account/my-other-project:
  # if you want to push to a shared project provide the full project identifier
  # the identifier can be found in your Tenderly dashboard under the projects name

Verify

The verify command uploads your smart contracts and verifies them on Tenderly.

tenderly contracts verify

Command Flags

Flag	Default	Description
--networks	/	A comma separated list of network ids to verify
--help	/	Help for verify command

Check for updates

The update-check command checks if there is a new version of the Tenderly CLI and gives update instructions and changelog information.

Version

The version command prints out the current version of the Tenderly CLI.

tenderly version

Who am I?

The whoami command prints out basic information about the currently logged in account

tenderly whoami

Logout

The logout command disconnects your local Tenderly CLI from your Tenderly Dashboard

tenderly logout

In addition to command specific flags, the following flags can be passed to any command

Flag	Default	Description

--output	text	Which output mode to use: text or json. If not provided. text output will be used.
--global-config	config	Global configuration file name (without the extension)
