Create Event on Monad
Creates an event on the deployed BuddyEvents contract on Monad (testnet or mainnet) using Foundry's forge script.
Prerequisites
- Foundry installed (
forge available in PATH)
PRIVATE_KEY set in .env.local at the workspace root- Contract deployed (address in
contracts/broadcast/Deploy.s.sol/10143/run-latest.json)
Workflow
-
Gather parameters from the user:
- name (required): Event name (string)
- price (optional, default
0): Ticket price in USDC (human-readable, e.g. 10 = 10 USDC, converted to 6-decimal on-chain)
- maxTickets (optional, default
100): Maximum number of tickets
-
Resolve the contract address by reading contracts/broadcast/Deploy.s.sol/10143/run-latest.json and extracting contractAddress from the first transaction.
-
Run the Foundry script:
cd contracts && source ../.env.local && \
BUDDY_EVENTS_CONTRACT=<address> forge script \
script/CreateEvent.s.sol:CreateEventScript \
--rpc-url https://testnet-rpc.monad.xyz \
--broadcast \
--private-key "$PRIVATE_KEY"
-
Report the result: event ID from the logs, tx hash from the broadcast JSON.
Script Location
The Foundry script is at contracts/script/CreateEvent.s.sol. It accepts these environment variables:
| Variable | Description |
|---|
BUDDY_EVENTS_CONTRACT | Deployed contract address |
PRIVATE_KEY | Deployer/organizer private key |
Customising Parameters
To change the event name, price, or max tickets, edit the CreateEvent.s.sol script arguments in the buddyEvents.createEvent(...) call before running. The contract function signature is:
function createEvent(string calldata name, uint256 priceInUSDC, uint256 maxTickets) external returns (uint256 eventId)
priceInUSDC uses 6 decimals (1 USDC = 1_000_000). Pass 0 for free events.
