Installation

Truffle Security is being deprecated and will not be maintained after July 15 2020. You should now use the MythX CLI, which also has full support for Truffle projects. Learn more at: https://github.com/dmuhs/mythx-cli.

Installation under Windows

Windows users need to install the following dependencies:

• Git

• Windows Build Tools npm package:

npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

Both will need to be installed with Administrator privileges.

In addition, those using Windows PowerShell may need to set the Execution Policy to Unrestricted in order to install the Windows Build Tools package:

Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

This will also need to be run with Administrator privileges.

Individual Projects

Install the plugin on an individual Truffle project by running the following inside the root of your Truffle project:

npm install truffle-security

The plugin will install for that Truffle project only. In addition, the plugin will edit the project’s configuration file (truffle-config.js) to add the necessary plugin configuration. You do not need to edit this file.

If you have existing plugins activated for the project, they will not be affected.

Global installation

Install the plugin globally so that it is accessible to all projects:

npm install -g truffle-security

If you install MythX for Truffle in this manner, you will in addition need to edit each project’s configuration file (truffle-config.js) to add the necessary plugin:

module.exports = {

  // ...

    plugins: [ "truffle-security" ],

  // ...

};
