hardhat-proxy

Hardhat plugin for integration with proxy contract.

Required plugins

• @nomiclabs/hardhat-ethers

What

This plugin brings the proxy contract to Hardhat, which allows you to manage the proxy contract in a simple way.

Installation

npm install --save-dev hardhat-proxy

Add the following statement to your hardhat.config.js:

require('hardhat-proxy')

Or, if you are using TypeScript, add this to your hardhat.config.ts:

import 'hardhat-proxy'

Configuration

You need to add the proxy contract address in hardhat.config.js.

Config example:

export default {
  proxies: {
    hardhat: '0x5FbDB2315678afecb367f032d93F642f64180aa3'
  }
}

Note: you need to manually add the output proxy address in the hardhat.config.js after running hardhat proxy:deploy

Usage

First, use Register in your implementation contract.

import 'hardhat-proxy/contracts/Register.sol';

contract Implementation is Register {
  function foo() public {
    // Doing something
  }
}

Second, override function register, and return constant LibRegister.REGISTER_SUCCESS.

import 'hardhat-proxy/contracts/Register.sol';
import 'hardhat-proxy/contracts/utils/LibRegister.sol';

contract Implementation is Register {
  function register() public override returns (bytes4 success) {
    _register(this.foo.selector);
    return LibRegister.REGISTER_SUCCESS;
  }
}

Last, use scripts or CLI to register it to proxy contract.

Scripts example:

import hre from 'hardhat'

await hre.proxy.bootstrap('0xCf7Ed3AccA5a467e9e704C703E8D87F634fB0Fc9')

CLI example:

$ hardhat proxy:deploy --network localhost --impl 0xCf7Ed3AccA5a467e9e704C703E8D87F634fB0Fc9

Tasks

This plugin implements a proxy and proxy:deploy task.

The proxy:deploy task can deploy a proxy contract to ethereum network.

$ hardhat proxy:deploy --network localhost

Proxy contract deployed in hardhat: 0xe7f1725E7734CE288F8367e1Bb143E90bb3F0512

The proxy task can register an implementation contract to proxy contract

$ hardhat proxy:deploy --network localhost --impl 0xCf7Ed3AccA5a467e9e704C703E8D87F634fB0Fc9

Environment extensions

This plugins adds a proxy object to the Hardhat Runtime Environment. You can use it in hardhat scripts.

declare module 'hardhat/types/runtime' {
  export interface HardhatRuntimeEnvironment {
    proxy: {
      address: string
      bootstrap: (impl: string) => Promise<TransactionResponse>
      deploy: () => Promise<Contract>
    }
  }
}

• address: The proxy address of current network
• bootstrap: Register implementation contract to proxy contract
• deploy: Deploy proxy contract
