Deploy a smart contract to the remote testnet via local nodeos

Start the local nodeos

It is required to start a local nodeos that is connected to the remote testnet.

Please refer to this link:

(https://github.com/FeeSimple/eos-tracker/tree/master/nodeos/client_node_connect_to_testnet)

Contract deployment steps

The local nodeos should listen at http://138.197.194.220:8877

Start wallet manager "keosd"

// Without the opt "--http-validate-host=false", it will never work in the current version of EOS
keosd --http-server-address=127.0.0.1:6666 --http-validate-host=false &

Create wallet if not yet created

cleos wallet create

Remember to store the output password for unlocking later. By default, wallet daemon is listenning at http://localhost:6666

Unlock wallet if currently locked

cleos --wallet-url http://localhost:6666 wallet unlock

-> enter the password to unlock

Import private key

It is required to import the private key of the account (into the local wallet) used to deploy contract. We can utilize the created account on the remote testnet because this account is funded with enough RAM.

"name": "useraaaaaaaa",
"private-key": "5JtUScZK2XEp3g9gh7F8bwtPTRAkASmNrrftmx4AxDKD5K4zDnr",
"public-key": "EOS69X3383RzBZj41k73CSjUNXM5MYGpnDxyPnWUKPEtYQmTBWz4D"

cleos --wallet-url http://localhost:6666 --url http://138.197.194.220:8877 wallet import 5JtUScZK2XEp3g9gh7F8bwtPTRAkASmNrrftmx4AxDKD5K4zDnr

Create contract files if not available

If not available, it is possible to create a contract skeleton by using the following cmd:

eosiocpp -n ${contract_name}

Compile and build contract

eosiocpp -o ${contract_name}.wast ${contract_name}.cpp
eosiocpp -g ${contract_name}.abi ${contract_name}.cpp

Deploy contract

Do not pass the abi file or wast file as arguments as this will not work. We use the account useraaaaaaaa for deployment.

Command:

cleos --wallet-url http://localhost:6666 --url http://138.197.194.220:8877 set contract ${account_name} ${abs_path_to_contract_folder} ${abs_path_to_wast_file} ${abs_path_to_abi_file}

Note: You must use an absolute path. Otherwise, the deployment cmd will fail.

Example:

cleos --wallet-url http://localhost:6666 --url http://138.197.194.220:8877 set contract useraaaaaaaa ~/Work/reference/dyver/eos-todo/contract/ ~/Work/reference/dyver/eos-todo/contract/hello.wast ~/Work/reference/dyver/eos-todo/contract/hello.abi

** Root cause:**

The running local nodeos is incurring high latency. Either wait until the latency value is decreased or restart the local nodeos.

Since you get this error message, you have system contract installed.
System contract allows you to create only one short (<12 characters) account name per 24 hours (highest bid).
If you want to create an account (without doing bidding) - the name should be exactly 12 characters long.
