Farm fresh Colony ABIs.

Generating the contract ABIs

First we need to create the relevant contract ABIs and store them in this repo (these are just .json files containing information about the contract interfaces. We will be generating them in the colonyNetwork repo which is a submodule of this repository.

Make sure you have the correct node version

nvm use

Go into the vendor/colonyNetwork subdirectory and check out the correct tag for the latest ColonyNetwork version (here glwss):

cd vendor/colonyNetwork
git checkout glwss

Update all git submodules and install all dependencies (see also this guide):

git submodule update --recursive
npm ci

You will need Docker installed and running to compile the contracts. It is however possible to disable Docker for the builds, see here for more information.

Next do:

rm -rf build/contracts/*.json # to remove any prior builds
npx truffle compile

Now we should have all the necessary contract ABIs ready. Next we extract those using the build command. Specify the network tag to create the corresponding sub-directory:

cd ../.. # go back to the colonyJS root folder
npm run build -- -t=glwss

That process should be fairly quick. A directory called abis/glwss should have been created, containing all the required ABIs for the next version (and more).
