## Deploying your Smart Contracts to a Live Network

Once you are ready to deploy your smart contracts, there are a few things you need to adjust.

1. Select the network

By default, `yarn deploy` will deploy the contract to the local network. You can change the defaultNetwork in `packages/hardhat/hardhat.config.ts.` You could also simply run `yarn deploy --network target_network` to deploy to another network.

Check the `hardhat.config.ts` for the networks that are pre-configured. You can also add other network settings to the `hardhat.config.ts` file. Here are the [Alchemy docs](https://docs.alchemy.com/docs/how-to-add-alchemy-rpc-endpoints-to-metamask) for information on specific networks.

Example: To deploy the contract to the Sepolia network, run the command below:

```
yarn deploy --network sepolia
```

2. Generate a new account or add one to deploy the contract(s) from. Additionally you will need to add your Alchemy API key. Rename `.env.example` to `.env` and fill the required keys.

```
ALCHEMY_API_KEY="",
DEPLOYER_PRIVATE_KEY=""
```

The deployer account is the account that will deploy your contracts. Additionally, the deployer account will be used to execute any function calls that are part of your deployment script.

You can generate a random account / private key with `yarn generate` or add the private key of your crypto wallet. `yarn generate` will create a random account and add the DEPLOYER_PRIVATE_KEY to the .env file. You can check the generated account with `yarn account`.

3. Deploy your smart contract(s)

Run the command below to deploy the smart contract to the target network. Make sure to have some funds in your deployer account to pay for the transaction.

```
yarn deploy --network network_name
```

4. Verify your smart contract

You can verify your smart contract on Etherscan by running:

```
yarn verify --network network_name
```

## Deploying your NextJS App

**Hint**: We recommend connecting your GitHub repo to Vercel (through the Vercel UI) so it gets automatically deployed when pushing to `main`.

If you want to deploy directly from the CLI, run `yarn vercel` and follow the steps to deploy to Vercel. Once you log in (email, github, etc), the default options should work. It'll give you a public URL.

If you want to redeploy to the same production URL you can run `yarn vercel --prod`. If you omit the `--prod` flag it will deploy it to a preview/test URL.

**Make sure to check the values of your Scaffold Configuration before deploying your NextJS App.**

### Scaffold App Configuration

You can configure different settings for your dapp at `packages/nextjs/scaffold.config.ts`.

```ts
export type ScaffoldConfig = {
targetNetwork: chains.Chain;
pollingInterval: number;
alchemyApiKey: string;
walletConnectProjectId: string;
onlyLocalBurnerWallet: boolean;
walletAutoConnect: boolean;
// your dapp custom config, eg:
// tokenIcon : string;
};
```

The configuration parameters are described below, make sure to update the values according to your needs:

- **targetNetwork**
Sets the blockchain network where your dapp is deployed. Use values from `wagmi/chains`.

- **pollingInterval**
The interval in milliseconds at which your front-end application polls the RPC servers for fresh data. _Note that this setting does not affect the local network._

- **alchemyApiKey**
Default Alchemy API key from Scaffold ETH 2 for local testing purposes.
It's recommended to obtain your own API key from the [Alchemy Dashboard](https://dashboard.alchemyapi.io/) and store it in an environment variable: `NEXT_PUBLIC_ALCHEMY_API_KEY` at `\packages\nextjs\.env.local` file.

- **walletConnectProjectId**
WalletConnect's default project ID from Scaffold ETH 2 for local testing purposes.
It's recommended to obtain your own project ID from the [WalletConnect website](https://cloud.walletconnect.com) and store it in an environment variable: `NEXT_PUBLIC_WALLET_CONNECT_PROJECT_ID` at `\packages\nextjs\.env.local` file.

- **onlyLocalBurnerWallet**
Controls the networks where the Burner Wallet feature is available. This feature provides a lightweight wallet for users.

- `true` => Use Burner Wallet only on hardhat network.
- `false` => Use Burner Wallet on all networks.

- **walletAutoConnect**
Set it to `true` to activate automatic wallet connection behavior:
- If the user was connected into a wallet before, on page reload it reconnects automatically.
- If user is not connected to any wallet, on reload, it connects to the burner wallet if it is enabled for the current network. See `onlyLocalBurnerWallet`

You can extend this configuration file, adding new parameters that you need to use across your dapp **(make sure you update the above type `ScaffoldConfig`)**:

```ts
tokenIcon: "💎",
```

To use the values from the `ScaffoldConfig` in any other file of your application, you first need to import it in those files:

```ts
import scaffoldConfig from "~~/scaffold.config";
```

## Interacting with your Smart Contracts: SE-2 Custom Hooks

Scaffold-ETH 2 provides a collection of custom React hooks designed to simplify interactions with your deployed smart contracts. These hooks are wrappers around `wagmi`, automatically loading the necessary contract ABI and address. They offer an easy-to-use interface for reading from, writing to, and monitoring events emitted by your smart contracts.

To help developers get started with smart contract interaction using Scaffold-ETH 2, we've provided the following custom hooks:

- [useScaffoldContractRead](#usescaffoldcontractread): for reading public variables and getting data from read-only functions of your contract.
- [useScaffoldContractWrite](#usescaffoldcontractwrite): for sending transactions to your contract to write data or perform an action.
- [useScaffoldEventSubscriber](#usescaffoldeventsubscriber): for subscribing to your contract events and receiving real-time updates when events are emitted.
- [useScaffoldEventHistory](#usescaffoldeventhistory): for retrieving historical event logs for your contract, providing past activity data.
- [useDeployedContractInfo](#usedeployedcontractinfo): for fetching details from your contract, including the ABI and address.
- [useScaffoldContract](#usescaffoldcontract): for obtaining a contract instance that lets you interact with the methods of your deployed smart contract.

These hooks offer a simplified and streamlined interface for interacting with your smart contracts. If you need to interact with external contracts, you can use `wagmi` directly, or add external contract data to your `deployedContracts.ts` file.

### useScaffoldContractRead:

Use this hook to read public variables and get data from read-only functions of your smart contract.

```ts
const { data: totalCounter } = useScaffoldContractRead({
contractName: "YourContract",
functionName: "getGreeting",
args: ["ARGUMENTS IF THE FUNCTION ACCEPTS ANY"],
});
```

This example retrieves the data returned by the `getGreeting` function of the `YourContract` smart contract. If the function accepts any arguments, they can be passed in the args array. The retrieved data is stored in the `data` property of the returned object.

### useScaffoldContractWrite:

Use this hook to send a transaction to your smart contract to write data or perform an action.

```ts
const { writeAsync, isLoading, isMining } = useScaffoldContractWrite({
contractName: "YourContract",
functionName: "setGreeting",
args: ["The value to set"],
// For payable functions, expressed in ETH
value: "0.01",
// The number of block confirmations to wait for before considering transaction to be confirmed (default : 1).
blockConfirmations: 1,
// The callback function to execute when the transaction is confirmed.
onBlockConfirmation: (txnReceipt) => {
console.log("Transaction blockHash", txnReceipt.blockHash);
},
});
```

To send the transaction, you can call the `writeAsync` function returned by the hook. Here's an example usage:

```ts
<button className="btn btn-primary" onClick={() => writeAsync()}>
Send TX
</button>
```

This example sends a transaction to the `YourContract` smart contract to call the `setGreeting` function with the arguments passed in `args`. The `writeAsync` function sends the transaction to the smart contract, and the `isLoading` and `isMining` properties indicate whether the transaction is currently being processed by the network.

### useScaffoldEventSubscriber:

Use this hook to subscribe to events emitted by your smart contract, and receive real-time updates when these events are emitted.

```ts
useScaffoldEventSubscriber({
contractName: "YourContract",
eventName: "GreetingChange",
// The listener function is called whenever a GreetingChange event is emitted by the contract.
// It receives the parameters emitted by the event, for this example: GreetingChange(address greetingSetter, string newGreeting, bool premium, uint256 value);
listener: (greetingSetter, newGreeting, premium, value) => {
console.log(greetingSetter, newGreeting, premium, value);
},
});
```

This example subscribes to the `GreetingChange` event emitted by the `YourContract` smart contract, and logs the parameters emitted by the event to the console whenever it is emitted. The `listener` function accepts the parameters emitted by the event, and can be customized according to your needs.

### useScaffoldEventHistory:

Use this hook to retrieve historical event logs for your smart contract, providing past activity data.

```ts
const {
data: events,
isLoading: isLoadingEvents,
error: errorReadingEvents,
} = useScaffoldEventHistory({
contractName: "YourContract",
eventName: "GreetingChange",
// Specify the starting block number from which to read events, this is a bigint.
fromBlock: 31231n,
blockData: true,
// Apply filters to the event based on parameter names and values { [parameterName]: value },
filters: { premium: true }
// If set to true it will return the transaction data for each event (default: false),
transactionData: true,
// If set to true it will return the receipt data for each event (default: false),
receiptData: true
});
```

This example retrieves the historical event logs for the `GreetingChange` event of the `YourContract` smart contract, starting from block number 31231 and filtering events where the premium parameter is true. The data property of the returned object contains an array of event objects, each containing the event parameters and (optionally) the block, transaction, and receipt data. The `isLoading` property indicates whether the event logs are currently being fetched, and the `error` property contains any error that occurred during the fetching process (if applicable).

### useDeployedContractInfo:

Use this hook to fetch details about a deployed smart contract, including the ABI and address.

```ts
// ContractName: name of the deployed contract
const { data: deployedContractData } = useDeployedContractInfo(contractName);
```

This example retrieves the details of the deployed contract with the specified name and stores the details in the deployedContractData object.

### useScaffoldContract:

Use this hook to get your contract instance by providing the contract name. It enables you interact with your contract methods.
For reading data or sending transactions, it's recommended to use `useScaffoldContractRead` and `useScaffoldContractWrite`.

```ts
const { data: yourContract } = useScaffoldContract({
contractName: "YourContract",
});
// Returns the greeting and can be called in any function, unlike useScaffoldContractRead
await yourContract?.read.greeting();

// Used to write to a contract and can be called in any function
import { useWalletClient } from "wagmi";

const { data: walletClient } = useWalletClient();
const { data: yourContract } = useScaffoldContract({
contractName: "YourContract",
walletClient,
});
const setGreeting = async () => {
// Call the method in any function
await yourContract?.write.setGreeting(["the greeting here"]);
};
```

This example uses the `useScaffoldContract` hook to obtain a contract instance for the `YourContract` smart contract. The data property of the returned object contains the contract instance that can be used to call any of the smart contract methods.

## Disabling type and linting error checks

> **Hint**
> Typescript helps you catch errors at compile time, which can save time and improve code quality, but can be challenging for those who are new to the language or who are used to the more dynamic nature of JavaScript. Below are the steps to disable type & lint check at different levels
### Disabling commit checks

We run `pre-commit` [git hook](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Customizing-Git-Git-Hooks) which lints the staged files and don't let you commit if there is an linting error.

To disable this, go to `.husky/pre-commit` file and comment out `yarn lint-staged --verbose`

```diff
- yarn lint-staged --verbose
+ # yarn lint-staged --verbose
```

### Deploying to Vercel without any checks

By default, Vercel runs types and lint checks before building your app. The deployment will fail if there are any types or lint errors.

To ignore these checks while deploying from the CLI, use:

```shell
yarn vercel:yolo
```

If your repo is connected to Vercel, you can set `NEXT_PUBLIC_IGNORE_BUILD_ERROR` to `true` in a [environment variable](https://vercel.com/docs/concepts/projects/environment-variables).

### Disabling Github Workflow
## Documentation

We have github workflow setup checkout `.github/workflows/lint.yaml` which runs types and lint error checks every time code is **pushed** to `main` branch or **pull request** is made to `main` branch
Visit our [docs](https://docs.scaffoldeth.io) to learn how to start building with Scaffold-ETH 2.

To disable it, **delete `.github` directory**
To know more about its features, check out our [website](https://scaffoldeth.io).
