deployCode

Signature

function deployCode(string memory what) public returns (address);

function deployCode(string memory what, bytes memory args) public returns (address);

function deployCode(string memory what, uint256 val) public returns (address);

function deployCode(string memory what, bytes memory args, uint256 val) public returns (address);

Description

Deploys a contract by fetching the contract bytecode from the artifacts directory.

The calldata parameter can either be in the form ContractFile.sol (if the filename and contract name are the same), ContractFile.sol:ContractName, or the path to an artifact, relative to the root of your project.

Values can also be passed by using the val parameter. This is necessary if you need to send ETH on the constructor.

Examples

address deployment = deployCode("MyContract.sol", abi.encode(arg1, arg2));
