|  | 1 | +# Web3 with ReactJS | 
|  | 2 | + | 
|  | 3 | +Lets create folders named *backend* and *frontend* | 
|  | 4 | + | 
|  | 5 | +create a react typescript app inside *frontend* folder | 
|  | 6 | + | 
|  | 7 | +  > npx create-react-app my-app --template typescript -frontend | 
|  | 8 | +
 | 
|  | 9 | +this will create a react project with following files and folder  | 
|  | 10 | + | 
|  | 11 | + | 
|  | 12 | + | 
|  | 13 | +Before connecting frontend with web3 we need to create a smart contract | 
|  | 14 | + | 
|  | 15 | +now lets create a truffle project inside our backend folder | 
|  | 16 | + | 
|  | 17 | +  > npm install -g truffle ( if not installed already) | 
|  | 18 | +  > truffle init | 
|  | 19 | +
 | 
|  | 20 | +this will create a truffle project with following files and folder  | 
|  | 21 | + | 
|  | 22 | + | 
|  | 23 | + | 
|  | 24 | +change truffle config, uncomment the following | 
|  | 25 | +  ```javascript | 
|  | 26 | +  networks: { | 
|  | 27 | +    development: { | 
|  | 28 | +     host: "127.0.0.1",     // Localhost (default: none) | 
|  | 29 | +     port: 8545,            // Standard Ethereum port (default: none) | 
|  | 30 | +     network_id: "*",       // Any network (default: none) | 
|  | 31 | +    }, | 
|  | 32 | +  ``` | 
|  | 33 | +
 | 
|  | 34 | + update solidity compiler version  | 
|  | 35 | +   ```javascript | 
|  | 36 | +  compilers: { | 
|  | 37 | +    solc: { | 
|  | 38 | +      version: "0.8.6",    // Fetch exact version from solc-bin (default: truffle's version) | 
|  | 39 | +      // docker: true,        // Use "0.5.1" you've installed locally with docker (default: false) | 
|  | 40 | +      // settings: {          // See the solidity docs for advice about optimization and evmVersion | 
|  | 41 | +       optimizer: { | 
|  | 42 | +         enabled: false, | 
|  | 43 | +         runs: 200 | 
|  | 44 | +       }, | 
|  | 45 | +      //  evmVersion: "byzantium" | 
|  | 46 | +      // } | 
|  | 47 | +    } | 
|  | 48 | +  },  | 
|  | 49 | + | 
|  | 50 | +  ``` | 
|  | 51 | + add the following to mention the build directory storing contracts ABI inside frontend's folder | 
|  | 52 | +   ```javascript | 
|  | 53 | +{ | 
|  | 54 | +  contracts_directory: './contracts/', | 
|  | 55 | +  contracts_build_directory: '../frontend/src/abis/', | 
|  | 56 | +} | 
|  | 57 | +  ``` | 
|  | 58 | +
 | 
|  | 59 | +- create a file in contracts folder *Marketplace.sol* to write our smart contract | 
|  | 60 | +- add the following code: | 
|  | 61 | +
 | 
|  | 62 | +```javascript | 
|  | 63 | +pragma solidity ^0.8.6; | 
|  | 64 | + | 
|  | 65 | +contract Marketplace { | 
|  | 66 | +    string public name; | 
|  | 67 | +    uint public productCount = 0; | 
|  | 68 | + | 
|  | 69 | +    struct Product { | 
|  | 70 | +    uint id; | 
|  | 71 | +    string name; | 
|  | 72 | +    uint price; | 
|  | 73 | +    address payable owner; | 
|  | 74 | +    bool purchased; | 
|  | 75 | +} | 
|  | 76 | +   mapping(uint => Product) public products; | 
|  | 77 | + | 
|  | 78 | +    constructor(){ | 
|  | 79 | +        name = "Marketplace"; | 
|  | 80 | +    } | 
|  | 81 | +} | 
|  | 82 | +``` | 
|  | 83 | +we are creating a contract with  | 
|  | 84 | +- a string variable *name*. | 
|  | 85 | +- a uint variable *productCount* | 
|  | 86 | +- a struct named Product | 
|  | 87 | +- a map named products having *id* and *Product* as key value. | 
|  | 88 | +
 | 
|  | 89 | +Next add tow functions to our code *createProduct*: creates a new product in blockchain and *purchaseProduct*: to make a transaction, transfering the ownership of the product to the buyer and pay the amount to the product creator. | 
|  | 90 | +
 | 
|  | 91 | +```javascript | 
|  | 92 | +function createProduct(string memory _name, uint _price) public {   // Require a valid name | 
|  | 93 | +    require(bytes(_name).length > 0); | 
|  | 94 | +    // Require a valid price | 
|  | 95 | +    require(_price > 0); | 
|  | 96 | +    // Increment product count | 
|  | 97 | +    productCount ++; | 
|  | 98 | +    // Create the product | 
|  | 99 | +    // msg.sender is the address of the user creating the product. | 
|  | 100 | +    products[productCount] = Product(productCount, _name, _price,payable(msg.sender), false); | 
|  | 101 | +} | 
|  | 102 | + | 
|  | 103 | +   function purchaseProduct(uint _id) public payable { | 
|  | 104 | +    // Fetch the product | 
|  | 105 | +    Product memory _product = products[_id]; | 
|  | 106 | +    // Fetch the owner | 
|  | 107 | +    address payable _seller = _product.owner; | 
|  | 108 | +    // Make sure the product has a valid id | 
|  | 109 | +    require(_product.id > 0 && _product.id <= productCount); | 
|  | 110 | +    // Require that there is enough Ether in the transaction | 
|  | 111 | +    require(msg.value >= _product.price); | 
|  | 112 | +    // Require that the product has not been purchased already | 
|  | 113 | +    require(!_product.purchased); | 
|  | 114 | +    // Require that the buyer is not the seller | 
|  | 115 | +    require(_seller != msg.sender); | 
|  | 116 | +    // Transfer ownership to the buyer | 
|  | 117 | +    _product.owner = payable(msg.sender); | 
|  | 118 | +    // Mark as purchased | 
|  | 119 | +    _product.purchased = true; | 
|  | 120 | +    // Update the product | 
|  | 121 | +    products[_id] = _product; | 
|  | 122 | +    // Pay the seller by sending them Ether | 
|  | 123 | +    _seller.transfer(msg.value); | 
|  | 124 | +} | 
|  | 125 | +``` | 
|  | 126 | +Finally add the events to the code | 
|  | 127 | +
 | 
|  | 128 | +```javascript | 
|  | 129 | +event ProductCreated( | 
|  | 130 | +    uint id, | 
|  | 131 | +    string name, | 
|  | 132 | +    uint price, | 
|  | 133 | +    address payable owner, | 
|  | 134 | +    bool purchased | 
|  | 135 | +); | 
|  | 136 | + | 
|  | 137 | +event ProductPurchased( | 
|  | 138 | +    uint id, | 
|  | 139 | +    string name, | 
|  | 140 | +    uint price, | 
|  | 141 | +    address payable owner, | 
|  | 142 | +    bool purchased | 
|  | 143 | +); | 
|  | 144 | + | 
|  | 145 | +``` | 
|  | 146 | +and add the emitter to the respective functions  | 
|  | 147 | +
 | 
|  | 148 | +```javascript | 
|  | 149 | + emit ProductCreated(productCount, _name, _price, payable(msg.sender), false); | 
|  | 150 | + ``` | 
|  | 151 | + in the createProduct function, after product is created successfully and  | 
|  | 152 | + ```javascript | 
|  | 153 | +  emit ProductPurchased(productCount, _product.name, _product.price, payable(msg.sender), true); | 
|  | 154 | + ``` | 
|  | 155 | +  in the purchaseProduct function, after transaction is successfull | 
|  | 156 | +
 | 
|  | 157 | +now lets complile the code | 
|  | 158 | +> truffle compile | 
|  | 159 | +
 | 
|  | 160 | +Finally we need to deploy this smart contract to Ganache | 
|  | 161 | +> create a file *2_deploy_contracts.js* in migrations folder | 
|  | 162 | +
 | 
|  | 163 | +This file tells Truffle to to deploy our smart contract to the blockchain, numbered to order the run. | 
|  | 164 | +
 | 
|  | 165 | + add the following : | 
|  | 166 | +```javascript | 
|  | 167 | +const Marketplace = artifacts.require("Marketplace"); | 
|  | 168 | + | 
|  | 169 | +module.exports = function(deployer) { | 
|  | 170 | +  deployer.deploy(Marketplace); | 
|  | 171 | +}; | 
|  | 172 | + | 
|  | 173 | +``` | 
|  | 174 | +Now run  | 
|  | 175 | + > truffle migrate --reset | 
|  | 176 | +
 | 
|  | 177 | + # Smart contract tests  | 
|  | 178 | +
 | 
|  | 179 | + Create a file * Marketplace.test.js* for the smart contract tests in the *tests* folder: | 
|  | 180 | +
 | 
|  | 181 | + install the dependencies for testing. | 
|  | 182 | + > npm i chai chai-as-promised | 
|  | 183 | +
 | 
|  | 184 | +add tools to our test suite  | 
|  | 185 | +
 | 
|  | 186 | +```javascript | 
|  | 187 | +require('chai') | 
|  | 188 | +.use(require('chai-as-promised')) | 
|  | 189 | +.should() | 
|  | 190 | + | 
|  | 191 | +``` | 
|  | 192 | +
 | 
|  | 193 | +we have created tests for the following: | 
|  | 194 | +- Contract is deployed successfully | 
|  | 195 | +- Products are created | 
|  | 196 | +- Products are listing as expected | 
|  | 197 | +- Products are sold with proper transaction | 
|  | 198 | +
 | 
|  | 199 | +Now test them. | 
|  | 200 | +> truffle test | 
|  | 201 | +
 | 
|  | 202 | +lets compile with | 
|  | 203 | +
 | 
|  | 204 | +> truffle migrate --reset   | 
|  | 205 | +
 | 
|  | 206 | + | 
|  | 207 | +
 | 
|  | 208 | +
 | 
|  | 209 | +# Now move on to frontend | 
|  | 210 | +
 | 
|  | 211 | + install metamask to your browser | 
|  | 212 | +
 | 
|  | 213 | + Download Ganache from https://www.trufflesuite.com/ganache | 
|  | 214 | +
 | 
|  | 215 | +Connect Metamask to our Ganache personal blockchain instance following the steps | 
|  | 216 | +- start Ganache | 
|  | 217 | +
 | 
|  | 218 | +- click on new workspace   | 
|  | 219 | + | 
|  | 220 | +
 | 
|  | 221 | +- go to server section   | 
|  | 222 | + | 
|  | 223 | +
 | 
|  | 224 | +- change port number to 8545   | 
|  | 225 | + | 
|  | 226 | +
 | 
|  | 227 | +- now click on save workspace   | 
|  | 228 | + | 
|  | 229 | +
 | 
|  | 230 | +- then open metamask in your browser | 
|  | 231 | +- create a new account | 
|  | 232 | +
 | 
|  | 233 | +- click on ethereum mainet   | 
|  | 234 | + | 
|  | 235 | +
 | 
|  | 236 | +- in the dropdown menu | 
|  | 237 | +- select localhost:8545   | 
|  | 238 | + | 
|  | 239 | +
 | 
|  | 240 | +- now you are connected | 
|  | 241 | +
 | 
|  | 242 | +- go to ganache and choose any account you want and click on key   | 
|  | 243 | + | 
|  | 244 | +
 | 
|  | 245 | +- select the whole key and copy it   | 
|  | 246 | + | 
|  | 247 | +
 | 
|  | 248 | +- go to metamask | 
|  | 249 | +- click on the account icon   | 
|  | 250 | + | 
|  | 251 | +
 | 
|  | 252 | +- then select import account from dropdown menu   | 
|  | 253 | + | 
|  | 254 | +
 | 
|  | 255 | +- paste the copied key | 
|  | 256 | +- and click import   | 
|  | 257 | + | 
|  | 258 | +
 | 
|  | 259 | +- you should see the ethereum balance (note that this ethereum has no value, its just for testing) | 
|  | 260 | +
 | 
|  | 261 | +## Client Side application  | 
|  | 262 | +
 | 
|  | 263 | +install web3.js  | 
|  | 264 | +
 | 
|  | 265 | +> npm i web3 | 
|  | 266 | +
 | 
|  | 267 | +install typechain for generating types of contract | 
|  | 268 | +
 | 
|  | 269 | +> npm i typechain @typechain/web3-v1 | 
|  | 270 | +
 | 
|  | 271 | +- add the scripts for generating types  | 
|  | 272 | +```json  | 
|  | 273 | +  "scripts": { | 
|  | 274 | +    "start": "react-scripts start", | 
|  | 275 | +    "build": "react-scripts build", | 
|  | 276 | +    "test": "react-scripts test", | 
|  | 277 | +    "eject": "react-scripts eject", | 
|  | 278 | +    "generate-types": "typechain --target=web3-v1 \"./src/abi/*.json\"" , | 
|  | 279 | +    "postinstall": "yarn generate-types" | 
|  | 280 | +  } | 
|  | 281 | +   | 
|  | 282 | +  ``` | 
|  | 283 | +- generate types by running command *npm generate-types* | 
|  | 284 | +this will create types folder inside src directory | 
|  | 285 | +
 | 
|  | 286 | +Start coding, add the following code in App.js | 
|  | 287 | +
 | 
|  | 288 | +```javascript | 
|  | 289 | +import Web3 from 'web3' | 
|  | 290 | +``` | 
|  | 291 | +
 | 
|  | 292 | +- instantiate web3. | 
|  | 293 | +
 | 
|  | 294 | +```javascript | 
|  | 295 | +  const loadWeb3 = async () => { | 
|  | 296 | +    if (window.ethereum) { | 
|  | 297 | +      window.web3 = new Web3(window.ethereum); | 
|  | 298 | +      try{ | 
|  | 299 | +       // Request account access if needed | 
|  | 300 | +      await window.ethereum.enable(); | 
|  | 301 | +    }catch (error) { | 
|  | 302 | +       window.alert( | 
|  | 303 | +        "User denied account access...!" | 
|  | 304 | +      ); | 
|  | 305 | +    }  | 
|  | 306 | +    }else if (window.web3) { | 
|  | 307 | +      window.web3 = new Web3(window.web3.currentProvider); | 
|  | 308 | +    } else { | 
|  | 309 | +      window.alert( | 
|  | 310 | +        "Non-Ethereum browser detected. You should consider trying MetaMask!" | 
|  | 311 | +      ); | 
|  | 312 | +    } | 
|  | 313 | +  }; | 
|  | 314 | + | 
|  | 315 | +``` | 
|  | 316 | +Once web3 is initialized, lets get the data from smart contract, | 
|  | 317 | +
 | 
|  | 318 | +```javascript | 
|  | 319 | +  const loadBlockchainData = async () => { | 
|  | 320 | +    const web3: Web3 = window.web3; | 
|  | 321 | +    const accounts = await web3.eth.getAccounts(); | 
|  | 322 | +    try { | 
|  | 323 | +      //Read the networkID to determine the network | 
|  | 324 | +      const networkId : number= await web3.eth.net.getId(); | 
|  | 325 | +      const netId = networkId as unknown as keyof typeof Marketplace.networks  | 
|  | 326 | +       const networkData = Marketplace.networks[netId]; | 
|  | 327 | +      if (networkData) { | 
|  | 328 | +        //instantiate the smart contract  | 
|  | 329 | +        const marketContract  = await new web3.eth.Contract( | 
|  | 330 | +          Marketplace.abi as AbiItem[], | 
|  | 331 | +          networkData.address | 
|  | 332 | +        ) as unknown as MPType | 
|  | 333 | + | 
|  | 334 | +    const productCount = await marketContract.methods.productCount().call() as unknown as number | 
|  | 335 | +    // Load products | 
|  | 336 | +    let productarray: Product[] = []; | 
|  | 337 | +    for (var i = 1; i <= productCount; i++) { | 
|  | 338 | +      const product : Product = await marketContract.methods.products(i).call(); | 
|  | 339 | +      productarray.push(product); | 
|  | 340 | +    }} else { | 
|  | 341 | +      window.alert("Marketplace contract not deployed to detected network."); | 
|  | 342 | +    }}catch (error) { | 
|  | 343 | +      window.alert("network not detected."); | 
|  | 344 | +    }}; | 
|  | 345 | +``` | 
|  | 346 | +We need 2 functions to call smart contract methods | 
|  | 347 | +### CreateProduct | 
|  | 348 | +
 | 
|  | 349 | +```javascript | 
|  | 350 | +  const createProduct = async(name: string, price: number) => { | 
|  | 351 | +    if(!marketplace){ | 
|  | 352 | +      return | 
|  | 353 | +    } | 
|  | 354 | +    try { | 
|  | 355 | +     await marketplace.methods | 
|  | 356 | +        .createProduct(name, price) | 
|  | 357 | +        .send({ from: account }) | 
|  | 358 | +        .on("error", function (error: Error) { | 
|  | 359 | +          window.alert(error.message); | 
|  | 360 | +        }); | 
|  | 361 | +        await loadBlockchainData() | 
|  | 362 | +    } catch (error) { | 
|  | 363 | +      window.alert(error.message); | 
|  | 364 | +    } }; | 
|  | 365 | +``` | 
|  | 366 | +
 | 
|  | 367 | +### PurchaseProduct | 
|  | 368 | +```javascript  | 
|  | 369 | +    const purchaseProduct = async(id: string, price: number) => { | 
|  | 370 | +    let idn = Number(id); | 
|  | 371 | +    if(!marketplace){ | 
|  | 372 | +      return | 
|  | 373 | +    } | 
|  | 374 | +    try { | 
|  | 375 | +      marketplace.methods | 
|  | 376 | +        .purchaseProduct(idn) | 
|  | 377 | +        .send({ from: account, value: price }) | 
|  | 378 | +        .on("error", function (error: Error) { | 
|  | 379 | +          window.alert(error.message); | 
|  | 380 | +        }); | 
|  | 381 | +        await loadBlockchainData() | 
|  | 382 | +    } catch (error) { | 
|  | 383 | +      window.alert(error.message); | 
|  | 384 | +    }}; | 
|  | 385 | +``` |
