cowboy deploy-code

​

Synopsis

cowboy deploy-code --code <path> [--rpc-url <url>] [--private-key <path>]

​

Behavior

1. Read the file at --code as raw bytes and compute its keccak256 hash.
2. Print Deploying code: <n> bytes, code_hash=0x<hash>.
3. Load the private key via auto-discovery, fetch the account nonce, the current basefee, and the chain id.
4. Sign a DeployCode system instruction with limits estimated by the node, print the transaction hash, and POST it to <rpc-url>/submit.
5. Print DeployCode submitted: <response>. The command does not wait for the transaction to commit.

Flags

Example

$ cowboy deploy-code --code actors/hello/main.py
Deploying code: 412 bytes, code_hash=0x9c0d...
Transaction hash: 0xdef789...
✓ DeployCode submitted: ...

​

Edge Cases

• This is not cowboy deploy: it publishes bytes by hash and creates no actor. Use cowboy deploy to deploy a project actor.
• An unreadable file fails with failed to read code file <path> before any network call.
• A failed /submit reports a typed diagnostic naming the transaction hash; a submission the node skipped (added: 0) reports transaction_skipped with the skip reasons.
