Running locally

If you want to test this project locally, you can use the following commands:

# Starts the replica, running in the background
dfx start --background

# Deploys your canisters to the replica and generates your candid interface
dfx deploy

You can run below command to get the canister history for a given canister.

dfx canister call canister_history canister_history '(record {canister_id=principal "bkyz2-fmaaa-aaaaa-qaaaq-cai"; num_requested_changes=opt 3})'

Here bkyz2-fmaaa-aaaaa-qaaaq-cai is used as an example, you may want to replace with your own canister id.

Use as pullable

This canister has been deployed to IC mainnet and also set to be pullable. Please check the dfx.json for details.

You can refer to the dfx deps document, along with dfx deps blog post to learn how to use dfx deps.

Please refer to the example about how to use this pullable canister. Basically, you need to

1. Add the pullable canister to the dfx.json.
2. Run dfx deps pull to pull the dependent canister, and generate deps/pulled.json.
3. Run dfx deps init to generate the deps/init.json.
   You have to do this even there's no init argument for this canister.
4. Run dfx deps deploy to deploy the pulled canister locally.
