Install Development Tools
We recommend to create a klaytn project directory such that:
$ mkdir $HOME/klaytn
caver-js is a JSON RPC framework for the Klaytn network (equivalent to web3.js in Ethereum). Before installing caver-js, you must generate
package.json file via npm init command, and then type npm install caver-js to install caver-js.$ npm init # initialize npm at the klaytn project directory
$ npm install caver-js
NOTE: If you already installed caver-js, please update it to the latest version.
$ npm cache clean --force # initialize npm cache
$ npm install [email protected] # update caver-js to the latest version
If you receive the following errors while updating the caver-js, remove
.git folder in the websocket directory.npm ERR! path /Users/username/klaytn/node_modules/websocket
npm ERR! code EISGIT

Note: For all the function calls that begin with
web3.eth... in web3.js, should be replaced with caver.klay....web3.eth.sendTransaction({ ... }) (X)caver.klay.sendTransaction({ ... }) (O)In this tutorial, Truffle is used to compile and deploy smart contracts written in Solidity. Currently, Klaytn supports Truffle version 4.1.15. For further information about Truffle, refer to the following sites:
We can install Truffle either
1) globally using npm by executing the following commands:
$ sudo npm install -g [email protected]
$ cd /usr/local/lib/node_modules/truffle
$ sudo npm install [email protected]
$ cd -
or
2) locally, i.e., in your local directory, by executing the followings:
# Assuming you are in $HOME/klaytn/.
$ npm install [email protected]
$ cd node_modules/truffle
$ npm install [email protected]
$ cd -
$ ln -s node_modules/truffle/build/cli.bundled.js truffle
$ export PATH=`pwd`:$PATH
vvisp is an easy-to-use cli tool/framework for developing smart contracts, provided by HEACHI LABS. You can easily set environment, deploy and execute Klaytn smart contracts with a single-command. It supports the Truffle framework, so developers familiar with Truffle can use vvisp without difficulty.
Here, we introduce how to install vvisp and use it to set up the Klaytn dApp development environment.
vvisp can be easily installed if you have npm or yarn by executing the following command:
$ npm install -g @haechi-labs/vvisp
# or if you use yarn
$ yarn global add @haechi-labs/vvisp
Upon installation, you can utilize the vvisp command to ensure it has been installed properly. NOTE: You should use version over v2.1.0.
$ vvisp
Usage: vvisp <command> [options]
where <command> is one of: compile, console, deploy-contract, deploy-service, flatten, gen-script, init
Options:
-v, --version output the version number
-h, --help output usage information
Commands:
compile [files...] compile the smart contracts
console [script-api-path] run interactive shell to execute contract scripts
deploy-contract <file> [arguments...] deploy the smart contracts
deploy-service deploy or upgrade smart contract service using the deployment configure file
flatten <files...> flatten the smart contracts
gen-script [files...] generate javascript libraries communicating the smart contracts
init [name] initialize directory to use vvisp
# you can check installed version.
$ vvisp --version
v2.1.0
