# 8. Call

Like deploying the contract, you also need to unlock your wallet first.

# Cli_wallet

# 1. GXChain source code compilation

If you don't want to use smart contract IDE tools, or want to build a more stable and reliable compilation environment; you can compile GXChain program locally, compile, deploy, and call smart contracts through command line; You can compile GXChain source code on ubuntu system and mac system.

# 2. Create a contract by using a template

Create a helloworld contract with the gxx tool

gxx -n helloworld

# 3. Compile the contract, generate wast and abi

Compile the contract and generate wast and wasm files

gxx -o helloworld/helloworld.wast helloworld/helloworld.cpp

Generate abi file

gxx -g helloworld/helloworld.abi helloworld/helloworld.cpp

# 4. Deploy contract

Need to start cli_wallet, connect local node or remote testnet node

./programs/cli_wallet/cli_wallet -swss://testnet.gxchain.org --chain-id c2af30ef9340ff81fd61654295e98a1ff04b23189748f86727d0b26b40bb0ff4

Import wallet private key

unlocked >>> import_key your_account_name your_private_key

# Deploy contract,the name of the contract is 'helloworld',the sender is 'your_account_name', '0' and '0' are vm type and vm version,'./helloworld' is the path of the wast/abi file and the 'GXC'means a kind of asset.
unlocked >>> deploy_contract helloworld your_account_name 0 0 ./helloworld GXC true
