forge script

Run a smart contract as a script, building transactions that can be sent onchain

$ forge script --help

Usage: forge script [OPTIONS] <PATH> [ARGS]...

Arguments:
  <PATH>
          The contract you want to run. Either the file path or contract name.
          
          If multiple contracts exist in the same file you must specify the
          target contract with --target-contract.

  [ARGS]...
          Arguments to pass to the script function

Options:
  -j, --threads <THREADS>
          Number of threads to use. Specifying 0 defaults to the number of
          logical cores
          
          [aliases: jobs]

      --target-contract <CONTRACT_NAME>
          The name of the contract you want to run
          
          [aliases: tc]

  -s, --sig <SIG>
          The signature of the function you want to call in the contract, or raw
          calldata
          
          [default: run()]

      --priority-gas-price <PRICE>
          Max priority fee per gas for EIP1559 transactions
          
          [env: ETH_PRIORITY_GAS_PRICE=]

      --legacy
          Use legacy transactions instead of EIP1559 ones.
          
          This is auto-enabled for common networks without EIP1559.

      --broadcast
          Broadcasts the transactions

      --batch-size <BATCH_SIZE>
          Batch size of transactions.
          
          This is ignored and set to 1 if batching is not available or `--slow`
          is enabled.
          
          [default: 100]

      --skip-simulation
          Skips on-chain simulation

  -g, --gas-estimate-multiplier <GAS_ESTIMATE_MULTIPLIER>
          Relative percentage to multiply gas estimates by
          
          [default: 130]

      --unlocked
          Send via `eth_sendTransaction` using the `--from` argument or
          `$ETH_FROM` as sender

      --resume
          Resumes submitting transactions that failed or timed-out previously.
          
          It DOES NOT simulate the script again and it expects nonces to have
          remained the same.
          
          Example: If transaction N has a nonce of 22, then the account should
          have a nonce of 22, otherwise it fails.

      --multi
          If present, --resume or --verify will be assumed to be a multi chain
          deployment

      --debug
          Open the script in the debugger.
          
          Takes precedence over broadcast.

      --dump <PATH>
          Dumps all debugger steps to file

      --slow
          Makes sure a transaction is sent, only after its previous one has been
          confirmed and succeeded

      --non-interactive
          Disables interactive prompts that might appear when deploying big
          contracts.
          
          For more info on the contract size limit, see EIP-170:
          <https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-170>

      --etherscan-api-key <KEY>
          The Etherscan (or equivalent) API key
          
          [env: ETHERSCAN_API_KEY=]

      --verify
          Verifies all the contracts found in the receipts of a script, if any

      --with-gas-price <PRICE>
          Gas price for legacy transactions, or max fee per gas for EIP1559
          transactions, either specified in wei, or as a string with a unit
          type.
          
          Examples: 1ether, 10gwei, 0.01ether
          
          [env: ETH_GAS_PRICE=]

      --timeout <TIMEOUT>
          Timeout to use for broadcasting transactions
          
          [env: ETH_TIMEOUT=]

  -h, --help
          Print help (see a summary with '-h')

Display options:
  -v, --verbosity...
          Verbosity level of the log messages.
          
          Pass multiple times to increase the verbosity (e.g. -v, -vv, -vvv).
          
          Depending on the context the verbosity levels have different meanings.
          
          For example, the verbosity levels of the EVM are:
          - 2 (-vv): Print logs for all tests.
          - 3 (-vvv): Print execution traces for failing tests.
          - 4 (-vvvv): Print execution traces for all tests, and setup traces
          for failing tests.
          - 5 (-vvvvv): Print execution and setup traces for all tests,
          including storage changes.

  -q, --quiet
          Do not print log messages

      --json
          Format log messages as JSON

      --color <COLOR>
          The color of the log messages

          Possible values:
          - auto:   Intelligently guess whether to use color output (default)
          - always: Force color output
          - never:  Force disable color output

Cache options:
      --force
          Clear the cache and artifacts folder and recompile

Build options:
      --no-cache
          Disable the cache

      --eof
          Use EOF-enabled solc binary. Enables via-ir and sets EVM version to
          Prague. Requires Docker to be installed.
          
          Note that this is a temporary solution until the EOF support is merged
          into the main solc release.

      --skip <SKIP>...
          Skip building files whose names contain the given filter.
          
          `test` and `script` are aliases for `.t.sol` and `.s.sol`.

Linker options:
      --libraries <LIBRARIES>
          Set pre-linked libraries
          
          [env: DAPP_LIBRARIES=]

Compiler options:
      --ignored-error-codes <ERROR_CODES>
          Ignore solc warnings by error code

      --deny-warnings
          Warnings will trigger a compiler error

      --no-auto-detect
          Do not auto-detect the `solc` version

      --use <SOLC_VERSION>
          Specify the solc version, or a path to a local solc, to build with.
          
          Valid values are in the format `x.y.z`, `solc:x.y.z` or
          `path/to/solc`.

      --offline
          Do not access the network.
          
          Missing solc versions will not be installed.

      --via-ir
          Use the Yul intermediate representation compilation pipeline

      --no-metadata
          Do not append any metadata to the bytecode.
          
          This is equivalent to setting `bytecode_hash` to `none` and
          `cbor_metadata` to `false`.

      --ast
          Includes the AST as JSON in the compiler output

      --evm-version <VERSION>
          The target EVM version

      --optimize [<OPTIMIZE>]
          Activate the Solidity optimizer
          
          [possible values: true, false]

      --optimizer-runs <RUNS>
          The number of runs specifies roughly how often each opcode of the
          deployed code will be executed across the life-time of the contract.
          This means it is a trade-off parameter between code size (deploy cost)
          and code execution cost (cost after deployment). An `optimizer_runs`
          parameter of `1` will produce short but expensive code. In contrast, a
          larger `optimizer_runs` parameter will produce longer but more gas
          efficient code

      --extra-output <SELECTOR>...
          Extra output to include in the contract's artifact.
          
          Example keys: evm.assembly, ewasm, ir, irOptimized, metadata
