hardhat: Run a user-defined script after compiling the project.
$ hardhat run ${path-to-script-js}
try on your machine
The command "hardhat run ${path-to-script.js}" is used with the Hardhat development environment for Ethereum smart contract development.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "hardhat run": This is the Hardhat command used to run a script or interact with the Ethereum network.
- "${path-to-script.js}": This is a placeholder for the path to a JavaScript file containing the script or task you want to run. Replace "${path-to-script.js}" with the actual path to the script file you want to execute.
The command executes the specified JavaScript file using the Hardhat development environment. This allows you to perform various tasks, interact with Ethereum networks, deploy and interact with smart contracts, and more.
For example, if you have a script named "deploy.js" in the current directory, you would execute the following command:
"hardhat run deploy.js"
This would run the "deploy.js" script using the Hardhat environment. The script may contain tasks like deploying a smart contract, interacting with existing contracts, or calling various functions on the blockchain.
