This is a template to build secret contracts in Rust to run in Secret Network. To understand the framework better, please read the overview in the cosmwasm repo, and dig into the cosmwasm docs. This assumes you understand the theory and just want to get coding.

Assuming you have a recent version of rust and cargo installed (via rustup), then the following should get you a new repo to start a contract:

First, install cargo-generate. Unless you did that before, run this line now:

cargo install cargo-generate --features vendored-openssl

Now, use it to create your new contract. Go to the folder in which you want to place it and run:

cargo generate --git https://github.com/enigmampc/secret-template.git --name YOUR_NAME_HERE

You will now have a new folder called YOUR_NAME_HERE (I hope you changed that to something else) containing a simple working contract and build system that you can customize.

After generating, you have a initialized local git repo, but no commits, and no remote. Go to a server (eg. github) and create a new upstream repo (called YOUR-GIT-URL below). Then run the following:

# this is needed to create a valid Cargo.lock file (see below)
cargo check
git checkout -b master # in case you generate from non-master
git add .
git commit -m 'Initial Commit'
git remote add origin YOUR-GIT-URL
git push -u origin master

Once you have your custom repo, you should check out Developing to explain more on how to run tests and develop code. Or go through the online tutorial to get a better feel of how to develop.

Publishing contains useful information on how to publish your contract to the world, once you are ready to deploy it on a running blockchain. And Importing contains information about pulling in other contracts or crates that have been published.

You can also find lots of useful recipes in the Makefile which you can use if you have make installed (very recommended. at least check them out).

Please replace this README file with information about your specific project. You can keep the Developing.md and Publishing.md files as useful referenced, but please set some proper description in the README.
