Install

Requirements

First, you will need to install the Rust toolchain.

curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
source $HOME/.cargo/env
rustup component add rustfmt

To install Solana Tool Suite, you can simply run the installation script. I’m specifying to install v1.9.4:

sh -c "$(curl -sSfL https://release.solana.com/v1.9.4/install)"

Note that if you are using zsh, you need to update your PATH.

Check:

solana --version

Now, you can run the test validator (a local testnet) to see if everything works correctly with command:

solana-test-validator

Let’s stop the test validator for now and install Anchor, the recommended framework for Solana programs. Make sure you have Yarn v1 installed. Then let's build using Rust package manager:

cargo install --git https://github.com/project-serum/anchor --tag v0.20.1 anchor-cli --locked

Check:

anchor --version

Install the Phantom Wallet

It a browser extension, like Metamask, but for Solana. Install it and create a wallet.

Set up keys

Look at ~/.config/solana/id.json or generate new using solana-keygen new.

Then configure Solana to use localhost

solana config set --url localhost
solana config get

Install the project

Clone the repo, go in it, and install the JS deps

yarn

Then you can run these dev commands:

anchor build # Install the needed Rust deps and compile the programs (aka: Smart-contract)
anchor test # Exec contract tests using JS test framework
