Coding Environment

Rust and IDE

This section is a summary of Getting Started / Installation and Setting Up Environment. You can go to the doc, setup rust and preferred IDE then and come back here. We recommend using Intellij IDEA.

Project Starter

Project starter template repo is there for spinning new smart contract quickly. With one command, project layout, boiler plate, git, and even Circle CI for auto testing/formatting/linting will be set up. Cool huh. Here is the repo: cosmwasm-template (opens new window)

Assuming you have a followed section above, then the following should get you a new repo to start a contract:

First, install cargo-generate. Unless you did that before, run this line now:

cargo install cargo-generate --features vendored-openssl

Now, use it to create your new contract. Go to the folder in which you want to place it and run:

cargo generate --git https://github.com/CosmWasm/cosmwasm-template.git --name simple-option

Initialize git repo:

Copy git add . git commit -m "Initial generation from cosmwasm-template"

Great, workstation is ready.
