Plutus Tx Template

A template repository for your plutus-tx smart contract project.

plutus-tx currently supports GHC v9.2.x and v9.6.x. Cabal v3.8+ is recommended.

From the command line:

gh repo create my-project --private --template IntersectMBO/plutus-tx-template

Or from the GitHub web page, click the top-right green button:

Use this template -> Create new repository
Or just fork/clone plutus-tx-template (but note that this is a template repository)

More information on GitHub template repositories can be found here.

With Nix (recommended)

Follow these instructions to install and configure nix, even if you already have it installed.

Then enter the shell using nix develop.

The nix files inside this template follow the iogx flake, but you can delete and replace them with your own. In that case, you might want to include the devx flake in your flake inputs as a starting point to supply all the necessary dependencies, making sure to use one of the -iog flavours.
With Docker / Devcontainers / Codespaces

From the GitHub web page, click the top-right green button:

Use this template -> Open in a codespace

Or let VSCode create a local codespace for you when you open this project.

You can modify your devcontainer.json file to customize the container (more info here).

Or using your local docker installation (change the /path/to/my-project accordingly):
```
docker run \
  -v /path/to/my-project:/workspaces/my-project \
  -it ghcr.io/input-output-hk/devx-devcontainer:x86_64-linux.ghc96-iog
```
When using this approach, you can ignore/delete/replace the nix files entirely.
With manually-installed dependencies (not recommended)

Follow the instructions for cardano-node for a custom setup.

When using this approach, you can ignore/delete/replace the nix files entirely.

Run cabal update first, then read Example: An Auction Smart Contract to get started.
