Check your Balance

1. Find out your principal id:

dfx identity get-principal

2. Save it somewhere.

e.g. My principal id is: blah-blah-blah

3. Format and store it in a command line variable:

OWNER_PUBLIC_KEY="principal \"$( \dfx identity get-principal )\""

4. Check that step 3 worked by printing it out:

echo $OWNER_PUBLIC_KEY

5. Check the owner's balance:

dfx canister call token balanceOf "( $OWNER_PUBLIC_KEY )"

Charge the Canister

1. Check canister ID:

dfx canister id token

2. Save canister ID into a command line variable:

CANISTER_PUBLIC_KEY="principal \"$( \dfx canister id token )\""

3. Check canister ID has been successfully saved:

echo $CANISTER_PUBLIC_KEY

4. Transfer half a billion tokens to the canister Principal ID:

dfx canister call token transfer "($CANISTER_PUBLIC_KEY, 500_000_000)"

Deploy the Project to the Live IC Network

1. Create and deploy canisters:

dfx deploy --network ic

2. Check the live canister ID:

dfx canister --network ic id token

3. Save the live canister ID to a command line variable:

LIVE_CANISTER_KEY="principal \"$( \dfx canister --network ic id token )\""

4. Check that it worked:

echo $LIVE_CANISTER_KEY

5. Transfer some tokens to the live canister:

dfx canister --network ic call token transfer "($LIVE_CANISTER_KEY, 50_000_000)"

6. Get live canister front-end id:

dfx canister --network ic id token_assets

7. Copy the id from step 6 and add .raw.ic0.app to the end to form a URL. e.g. blah-blah-blah.raw.ic0.app
