Basic Commands

Overview of CLI Commands

The cargo-stylus command-line interface (CLI) is a crucial tool for developing, verifying, and deploying Arbitrum Stylus smart contracts written in Rust. Below are some common commands and their usage:

Creating a New Stylus Project

To start a new Stylus project, use the following command. This clones a local copy of a starter project:

cargo stylus new <YOUR_PROJECT_NAME>

For a minimal setup, you can use:

cargo stylus new --minimal <YOUR_PROJECT_NAME>

Checking Your Project

To ensure your project is valid and can be deployed on the Arbitrum network, use:

cargo stylus check --endpoint https://sepolia-rollup.arbitrum.io/rpc

This command performs various checks on your contract to ensure it meets all requirements.

Deploying Your Project

To deploy your compiled smart contract to the Arbitrum network, use:

cargo stylus deploy --private-key-path=<PRIVKEY_FILE_PATH> --endpoint https://sepolia-rol
lup.arbitrum.io/rpc

Replace <PRIVKEY_FILE_PATH> with the path to your private key file.

Other Useful Commands

  • cargo stylus export-abi: Export the ABI (Application Binary Interface) for your contract.

  • cargo stylus replay: Replay a transaction for debugging purposes.

  • cargo stylus trace: Trace a transaction to inspect its execution.

By mastering these commands, you can effectively manage the lifecycle of your Stylus smart contracts from development to deployment.
