Generate the ABI and Bytecode of a Smart Contract
Steps to be followed:
-
Creating a Solidity smart contract using the text editor
-
Compiling the smart contract to generate ABI and Bytecode
Step 1: Creating a Solidity Smart Contract using the Text Editor
-
Open your Remix IDE and click the Create new file button to create a student.sol file
-
Once the file is created, type the following code in the student.sol file
pragma solidity ^0.4.20;
contract structSample {
struct student {
string name;
uint256 age;
uint256 id;
}
//create instance
student _student;
function setStudentValues(
string memory _name,
uint256 _age,
uint256 _id
) public {
_student.name = _name;
_student.age = _age;
_student.id = _id;
}
function getStudentValues()
public view returns (
string memory,
uint256,
uint256
)
{
return (_student.name, _student.age, _student.id);
}
}
-
Once typing the code is done, save the file. Once the student.sol file is saved, observe that JSON metadata will be created for the file
Step 2: Compiling the Smart Contract to generate the ABI and Bytecode
-
Click the Solidity Compiler section to start the compilation of the student.sol file
-
Remix detects the version of the compiler to be used but it may be changed according to user preference. Click the Compile student.sol button to compile the file
2.3 Observe that ABI and Bytecode buttons are displayed on the screen. This indicates that the Solidity smart contract has been compiled without an error
-
Clicking the Compilation Details button will reveal the ABI and the Bytecode of the student.sol file
-
Observe the Bytecode. ABI of the student.sol file is generated and displayed
