Contributing and Hacking

Building

# Clone the REPO
/home/ricmoo> git clone git@github.com:ethers-io/ethers.js.git
/home/ricmoo> cd ethers.js

# Install the base dependencies
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm install

# Install each module's dependencies and link the libraries
# internally, so they reference each other
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run bootstrap

# Begin watching the files and re-building whenever they change
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run auto-build


# Sometimes the issue only affects the ESM modules
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run auto-build-esm


# Or if you only need to run a single build
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run _build-cjs
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run _build-esm

# Rebuilds all files and bundles testcases up for testing
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm test

# Often you don't need the full CI experience
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run _test-node

/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run update-version
