Use-Cases

EverDev offers a myriad of features for managing your blockchain development needs:

• Easily manage installation and updates of core tools like Solidity and C++ compilers.
• Configure networks including Local Blockchain, Developer Network, and Everscale main network.
• Manage keys by adding or removing them seamlessly.
• Interact with your blockchain directly from the command line interface.

Installation

To get EverDev up and running, follow these installation steps:

Prerequisites

• Node.js version 14.x is required if installing via NPM. We suggest using Node Version Manager for installation.
• (Optional) Docker version 19.x can enhance your experience.
• On Windows, the Solidity compiler requires VC++ Runtime. Download it from the official Microsoft page.

Using NPM

Run the following command in your terminal:

npm i -g everdev

If you encounter an EACCESS error when attempting a global install on Mac or Linux, follow this guide.

Using Pre-compiled Binaries

Download the precompiled binaries for your OS from the latest release on GitHub. After downloading, create a directory:

mkdir -p ~/.everdev/bin

Then, unpack the binaries into this folder. For Windows, use:

md $env:HOMEDRIVE$env:HOMEPATH\.everdev\bin

Place the downloaded binary in this folder. Update your system PATH for both platforms to run EverDev seamlessly from any directory.

Using Docker

Select an image that meets GLIBC 2.29 or higher requirements. Here’s how to do it:

docker run -it --rm ubuntu:20.04
apt update
apt upgrade -y
apt install -y curl
curl -L https://github.com/everx-labs/everdev/releases/download/1.3.1/everdev-linux.tgz --output everdev-linux.tgz
tar xvf everdev-linux.tgz
mv everdev /usr/local/bin

Update

To update EverDev, use the following commands:

npm r -g everdev
npm i -g everdev

Command Line Interface

Once installed, components for your platform will be downloaded automatically upon your first request. The general command syntax is:

everdev tool command ...args

You may use shortened aliases for convenience. For example, instead of typing everdev network list, you can simply use everdev n l.
