Truffle plugin to post-process contracts for go-ethereum's abigen

truffle-plugin-abigen

This truffle plugin generates the required files needed to use Geths abigen to generate contract bindings in golang.

Installation

1. Install the plugin with npm

   npm install @chainsafe/truffle-plugin-abigen

2. Add the plugin to your truffle.js or truffle-config.js file

   module.exports = {
     /* ... rest of truffle-config */
   
     plugins: [
       "@chainsafe/truffle-plugin-abigen"
     ]
   }

Usage

Before running ensure that you've compiled your contracts:

truffle compile

To generate specific contract bindings:

truffle run abigen SomeContractName AnotherContractName

Alternatively, to generate bindings for all your contracts:

truffle run abigen

Debugging

You can pass an optional --debug flag into the plugin to display debug messages during the verification process. This is generally not necessary, but can be used to provide additional information when the plugin appears to malfunction.

Around 599 vulnerabilities in nvm install : npm i --save @chainsafe/truffle-plugin-abigen

Huge number of error and deprecation flags.

What's the cause?

For the imports as well please

is it possible to also have this build against whatever imports are used in the contracts as well?

import '@foo/bar/Something.sol';

and also have the abigen respective files be built against Something.sol

thank you so much for this package,

When `abigenBindings` directory doesn't exist `truffle run abigen` fails

Hi,
Thanks for the great package!

I found when abigenBindings directory doesn't exist truffle run abigen fails.

truffle-plugin-abigen/index.js

Lines 90 to 99 in cd3ff14

	const createDirectories = () => {
	try {
	fs.rmdirSync(BUILD_PATH, { recursive: true });
	fs.mkdirSync(BUILD_PATH);
	fs.mkdirSync(ABI_PATH);
	fs.mkdirSync(BIN_PATH);
	} catch (e) {
	logger.error(e)
	}
	}

That's because in createDirectories fs.rmdirSync throw an error so fs.mkdirSyncs are not evaled.

Please document to create abigenBindings directory or fix the function.
