Deploy to Your Blockchain
In this guide, you'll use cleos to deploy and test the wax smart contract you created and compiled in the Create a Smart Contract tutorial.
Before You Begin
nodeos must be running
shellnodeos -e -p eosio \ --plugin eosio::producer_plugin \ --plugin eosio::chain_api_plugin \ --plugin eosio::http_plugin \ --access-control-allow-origin='*' \ --contracts-console \ --http-validate-host=false \ --verbose-http-errors >> nodeos.log 2>&1 &
Your wallet must be Opened and Unlocked
shellcleos wallet open
shellcleos wallet unlock --password PW5KRXKVx25yjL3FvxxY9YxYxxYY9Yxx99yyXTRH8DjppKpD9tKtVz
You must create a WAX Account for your smart contract. Refer to Create Accounts if you haven't completed this step.
Deploy Your Smart Contract
To deploy your smart contract's WASM file to your local blockchain, use cleos set contract
from the command line:
Parameter | Example | Description |
---|---|---|
account | waxsc1 | Your smart contract's account. |
path | /users/wax-blockchain/wax-cdt/mycontracts/wax | Full path to your WASM file. |
permission | -p waxsc1@active | Active or Owner permission for your smart contract's account. |
cleos set contract waxsc1 /users/wax-blockchain/wax-cdt/mycontracts/wax -p waxsc1@active
The console prints the following confirmation:
Reading WASM from /users/wax-blockchain/wax-cdt/mycontracts/wax/wax.wasm...

warning: transaction executed locally, but may not be confirmed by the network yet ]
Your smart contract should now be live on your local blockchain.
Test Your Smart Contract
To test your smart contract, use cleos push action
from the command line:
Parameter | Example | Description |
---|---|---|
account | waxsc1 | Your smart contract's account. |
action | hi | Name of action. |
datastream | '["YourName"]' | Enter your name or any other string. |
permission | -p waxsc1@active | Active or Owner permission for your smart contract's account. |
cleos push action waxsc1 hi '["YourName"]' -p waxsc1@active
The console prints the following:
executed transaction: 6a0b1489d903f2cacc6480830358f07aaf65b20bf1d7e855dc20097f4d64dc52 104 bytes 1727 us
# waxsc2 <= waxsc2::hi {"nm":"YourName"}
>> Name : YourName
warning: transaction executed locally, but may not be confirmed by the network yet ]
If you receive an error that the transaction took too long, run cleos push action
again. If you still receive an error, try restarting nodeos.
