AjoFactory Ethereum Deployment - Complete Setup Summary

Overview

This document summarizes the complete Ethereum deployment setup for AjoFactory to Sepolia testnet. All files have been created and configured following Ethereum and Hardhat best practices.

✅ What Has Been Set Up

1. Smart Contract (/contracts/ethereum/AjoFactory.sol)

  • Full-featured Ajo (Rotating Savings) factory contract
  • Circle creation and management
  • Member participation and contributions
  • Platform fee management
  • Emergency functions
  • Comprehensive event logging

Key Features:

  • Create circles with custom parameters
  • Join existing circles
  • Contribute to circles
  • Query circle and membership information
  • Platform owner controls

2. Hardhat Configuration (hardhat.config.ts)

  • Sepolia testnet network configuration
  • Ethers.js v6 setup
  • Gas reporting enabled
  • Contract verification for Etherscan
  • Environment variable security

Supported Networks:

  • sepolia - Main testnet for deployment
  • hardhat - Local testing
  • localhost - Local node

3. Deployment Script (scripts/deploy.ts)

Production-ready deployment with:

✅ Pre-flight Checks

  • Validates deployer account exists
  • Checks wallet balance (warns if < 0.1 ETH)
  • Verifies network configuration
  • Tests RPC connectivity

✅ Smart Error Handling

  • Detects already-deployed contracts
  • Prevents gas waste on retries
  • Clear error messages
  • Graceful failure handling

✅ Contract Deployment

  • Deploys AjoFactory contract
  • Waits for confirmation
  • Logs deployment transaction details

✅ Automatic Verification

  • Submits to Etherscan
  • Waits for contract indexing
  • Provides verification link
  • Handles already-verified contracts

✅ Frontend Integration

  • Saves contract ABI to JSON
  • Exports deployment address
  • Creates directly-importable config
  • No manual copy-pasting required

✅ Comprehensive Logging

  • Transaction hash
  • Contract address
  • Block number
  • Gas usage
  • Deployment timestamp

4. Testing Suite (test/AjoFactory.test.ts)

Comprehensive test coverage:

  • Contract deployment validation
  • Circle creation tests
  • Member participation tests
  • Contribution handling
  • Permission and access control
  • Platform management functions

Run tests:

pnpm contract:test           # Run all tests
pnpm contract:test:gas       # With gas reporting

5. Configuration Files

hardhat.config.ts

- Sepolia RPC configuration
- Private key management via .env
- Gas reporter setup
- Etherscan API integration
- Optimizer settings

🛠️ Frontend Integration

Import deployment config in your frontend:

import deployments from '@/constants/deployments/sepolia-addresses.json'

const contractAddress = deployments.contracts.AjoFactory.address
const contractABI = deployments.contracts.AjoFactory.abi

See FRONTEND_INTEGRATION.md for complete examples.

⚙️ Network Details

Sepolia Testnet:

  • Chain ID: 11155111
  • RPC: https://sepolia.infura.io/v3/YOUR_KEY
  • Explorer: https://sepolia.etherscan.io/
  • Faucet: https://sepoliafaucet.com/
  • Block time: ~12 seconds
  • Requires testnet ETH for gas

📊 Gas Estimation

Get gas estimates for your deployment:

pnpm contract:test:gas

This generates gas-report.txt with per-function gas costs.

🐛 Troubleshooting

"Insufficient Funds"

"RPC URL not set"

  • Add SEPOLIA_RPC_URL to .env

"Invalid Private Key"

  • Remove 0x prefix from private key
  • Ensure correct format in .env

"Contract already verified"

  • Expected if deploying twice
  • Can view existing verification on Etherscan
