Ride App

Decentralized ride sharing on the Ethereum blockchain. The project contains the frontend website and backend Ethereum Smart Contract to deploy and run the decentralized ride sharing application.

Smart contract

• The backend/deris.sol file contains the logic for all interaction between rider and driver orchestrated on the blockchain run on an Ethereum test network.
• The smart contract can be compiled by running the following node command in the backend folder: solcjs deris.sol --bin --abi
• The above command generates a .bin and a .abi file of the smart contract.
• The .bin and .abi file are used to deploy the smart contract on an ethereum test network.
• The .abi file is also used to create an instance of the contract for the React user application to use to call the functions in the smart contract deployed on the test network.

Ganache test Network

• Ganache is used as the test network to deploy the deris.sol smart contract on.

• Once ganache is installed, a test network is started using quickstart. The default test network start on local host at port number 7545 (http://127.0.0.1:7545)

• If the mig.js file is giving problems in deployment, the Remix IDE can also be used to deploy the contract on the ganache test network instance. Again make sure to have the right network address selected.

• Be sure to note down the address the contract was deployed at.

npm run build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!
