Examples

To the run an example, set an operator id and operator key in the .env file. By default, these run against testnet.

# Account that will pay query and transaction fees.
OPERATOR_ID=
# Default private key to use to sign for all transactions and queries.
OPERATOR_KEY=

Cargo Command:

cargo run --release --example <EXAMPLE_FILENAME>

Create Account Example:

cargo run --release --example create_account

Integration Tests

Before running the integration tests, an operator key, operator id, and a network name must be set in an .env file.

# Account that will pay query and transaction fees.
TEST_OPERATOR_ID=
# Default private key to use to sign for all transactions and queries.
TEST_OPERATOR_KEY=
# Network names: "localhost", "testnet", "previewnet", "mainnet".
TEST_NETWORK_NAME=
# Running on-chain tests if this value is set to 1.
TEST_RUN_NONFREE=

Run the tests using cargo test

Local Environment Testing

Hedera offers a way to run tests through your localhost using the hedera-local-node service.

For instructions on how to set up and run local node, follow the steps in the git repository: https://github.com/hashgraph/hedera-local-node

Once the local node is running in Docker, use these environment variables in the .env.

# Account that will pay query and transaction fees.
TEST_OPERATOR_ID=0.0.2
# Default private key to use to sign for all transactions and queries.
TEST_OPERATOR_KEY=302e020100300506032b65700422042091132178e72057a1d7528025956fe39b0b847f200ab59b2fdd367017f3087137
# Network names: "localhost", "testnet", "previewnet", "mainnet".
TEST_NETWORK_NAME=localhost
# Running on-chain tests if this value is set to 1.
TEST_RUN_NONFREE=1

Lastly, run the tests using cargo test
