EOSIO web-based integrated development environment (IDE) for decentralized applications

This repository enables developers to instantiate a browser based IDE and runs the required EOSIO blockchain components (nodeos, keosd, cleos) in a personal cloud instance. All custom code created by the developer is securely managed on the developer's personal GitHub account. Zero installation is required on the user's machine. User's can simply point their browser to the provided URL below and begin compiling the provided example smart contract (C++) and the associated front-end decentralized application (EOSJS), deploy the application on the blockchain, and experience the application in under a few minutes.

Setup

Fork this repo to your personal GitHub account and point your browser to the following URL https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/your-github-account/eosio-web-ide to start the IDE. You will be automatically prompted to create a Gitpod account (all types of Gitpod accounts (including free) will work). You can also choose to provide multiple developers push access to your personal github fork of this repo to collaborate with them (one developer working on the smart contract (C++) while the other working on the front-end decentralized application (EOSJS), etc.). Each such developer sharing access to the forked repo will get their own copy of the EOSIO blockchain components to enable independent development.

You can test drive the system by accessing the IDE at https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/EOSIO/eosio-web-ide (however you will not be able to save your work into the EOSIO/eosio-web-ide Github repository)

Follow the instructions below to work inside the IDE entvironment

Opening a terminal

To open a terminal, use the Terminal drop-down menu in the IDE user interface.

Building sample contract

Run this in a terminal:

eosio-cpp contract/talk.cpp

This will produce talk.abi and talk.wasm.

Installing the contract

cleos create account eosio talk EOS6MRyAjQq8ud7hVNYcfnVPJqcVpscN5So8BhtHuGYqET5GDW5CV
cleos set code talk talk.wasm
cleos set abi talk talk.abi

Creating users and using the contract

cleos create account eosio bob EOS6MRyAjQq8ud7hVNYcfnVPJqcVpscN5So8BhtHuGYqET5GDW5CV
cleos create account eosio jane EOS6MRyAjQq8ud7hVNYcfnVPJqcVpscN5So8BhtHuGYqET5GDW5CV
cleos push action talk post '[1000, 0, bob, "This is a new post"]' -p bob
cleos push action talk post '[2000, 0, jane, "This is my first post"]' -p jane
cleos push action talk post '[1001, 2000, bob, "Replying to your post"]' -p bob

Listing the messages

cleos get table talk '' message

Viewing the fron-end decentralized web app (EOSJS):

Resetting the chain

To remove the existing chain and create another:

• Switch to the terminal running nodeos
• Press ctrl+c to stop it
• Run the following

rm -rf ~/eosio/chain
nodeos --config-dir ~/eosio/chain/config --data-dir ~/eosio/chain/data -e -p eosio --plugin eosio::chain_api_plugin
