↳ Smilo Wizard

Smilo Wizard is a command line tool that allows users to set up a development Smilo network on their local machine in less than 2 minutes.

↳ Installation

Smilo-wizard is written in Javascript and designed to be installed as a global NPM module and run from the command line. Make sure you have Node.js/NPM installed.

Using npm:

npm install -g Smilo-wizard

Using Yarn:

yarn global add Smilo-wizard

↳ Using Smilo Wizard

Once the global module is installed, just run:

Smilo-wizard

The wizard will then walk you through setting up a network, either using our quickstart settings (a simple 3-node Smilo network using Raft consensus), or customizing the options to fit your needs.

↳ Options

You can also provide these flags when running Smilo-wizard:

• -q, --quickstart create 3 node raft network with tessera and cakeshop (no user-input required)
• -v, --verbose Turn on additional logs for debugging
• --version Show version number
• -h, --help Show help

Note: npx is also way to run npm modules without the need to actually install the module. Due to Smilo-wizard needing to download and cache the Smilo binaries during network setup, using npx Smilo-wizard will not work at this time.

↳ Interacting with the Network

To explore the features of Smilo and deploy a private contract, follow the instructions on Interacting with the Network

↳ Troubleshooting

EACCES error when doing global npm install:

• Sometimes npm is installed in a location where the user doesn't have write permissions. On Mac, installing via Homebrew usually works better than the standalone installer.
• Here is the recommended solution from NPM
