title: "Aptos Transaction generated using Move Script" | ||||||
--- | ||||||
|
||||||
import { Callout, Steps } from "nextra/components" | ||||||
|
||||||
## Overview: | ||||||
|
||||||
This section outlines how to create test transactions with Move scripts. | ||||||
|
||||||
## Prerequisites | ||||||
|
||||||
1. Clone the [aptos-core](https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-core) repository: | ||||||
- Navigate to the `aptos-core/ecosystem/indexer-grpc/indexer-transaction-generator` directory. | ||||||
|
||||||
## How to Generate Test Transactions using Move Script | ||||||
<Steps> | ||||||
### Set up `move_fixtures` folder | ||||||
Before proceeding, ensure you have the move_fixtures folder set up in the appropriate location: | ||||||
1. Location: | ||||||
The move_fixtures folder should be created in the `aptos-core/ecosystem/indexer-grpc/indexer-transaction-generator/imported_transactions` directory. This is the folder where Move scripts and their configurations for test transactions will be stored. | ||||||

|
||||||
<Callout> **Note:** Do not create the `move_fixtures` folder in your processor repository. All Move-related files should reside in the `aptos-core` repository under the specified directory. </Callout> | ||||||

||||||
2. Steps to set up the follder: | ||||||
- if starting fresh, remove all existing files and projects in the `move_fixtures` folder in the aptos-core repo | ||||||
- Create your own Move projects/scripts in the move_fixtures folder (detailed in the next step) | ||||||
|
||||||
### Create Your Move Project | ||||||
|
||||||
Create your Move project and write a module to output the scenario that you would like to test in your processor. You can refer to an example [here](https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-core/tree/main/ecosystem/indexer-grpc/indexer-transaction-generator/imported_transactions/move_fixtures). | ||||||
|
||||||
### Set Up Test Accounts | ||||||
|
||||||
1. These accounts will be used to deploy your module. | ||||||
2. Set up as many accounts as you need. These accounts will be used to send the scripted transactions. Refer to the guide [here](https://aptos.dev/en/build/cli/setup-cli) to create accounts. | ||||||

|
||||||
3. Update `aptos-core/ecosystem/indexer-grpc/indexer-transaction-generator/imported_transactions/testing_accounts.yaml` with your accounts. | ||||||
|
||||||
<Callout> **Note:** Do not use real accounts here. Only use test accounts created in the CLI specifically for testing. </Callout> | ||||||
|
||||||
### Create a Configuration File | ||||||
Each configuration file defines a sequences of transactions for a test scenario. | ||||||
1. Create a configuration file in the `move_fixtures` [directory](https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-core/blob/main/ecosystem/indexer-grpc/indexer-transaction-generator/imported_transactions/move_fixtures). Name the configuration file according to the test scenario it corresponds to. | ||||||
2. This configuration file should contain unique transaction names and details for each transaction. The transactions should be listed in the order they are to be executed. Example configuration: | ||||||
output_name: the name of the transaction json output | ||||||
script_path: the path to the Move script | ||||||
sender_address: the address of the account that will send the transaction | ||||||
|
||||||
```yaml | ||||||
transactions: | ||||||
- output_name: simple_user_script1 | ||||||
script_path: simple_user_script | ||||||
sender_address: <account_address> | ||||||
- output_name: simple_user_script2 | ||||||
script_path: simple_user_script2 | ||||||
sender_address: <account_address> | ||||||
``` | ||||||
|
||||||
### Generate JSON Files and Rust File | ||||||
|
||||||
Once the Move files and configuration are set up, run the same command used to import transactions: | ||||||
- testing-folder is where your Move files are stored. | ||||||
- output-folder can be set to any folder where you want to store the generated files. | ||||||
|
||||||
```bash | ||||||
cd ~/aptos-core/ecosystem/indexer-grpc/indexer-transaction-generator | ||||||
cargo run -- --testing-folder ./imported_transactions --output-folder ../indexer-test-transactions/src/ | ||||||

``` | ||||||
|
||||||
This command will: | ||||||
|
||||||
1. Read the configuration in the `move_fixtures` folder. | ||||||
2. Execute the specified Move scripts. | ||||||
3. Output the generated JSON files to the designated folder (`~/aptos-core/ecosystem/indexer-grpc/indexer-transaction-generator/json_transactions`). | ||||||

||||||
4. Update `generated_transactions.rs` with the new transaction names specified in step 3. | ||||||
|
||||||
</Steps> | ||||||
|
||||||
## How to Use Test Transactions | ||||||
|
||||||
- **Export the Generated File**: | ||||||
|
||||||
Update the [`mod.rs`](https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-indexer-processor-example/blob/main/test-transactions-example/src/json_transactions/mod.rs) file to include the generated Rust file containing the transaction constants. | ||||||
|
||||||
- **Export the `json_transactions` Folder**: | ||||||
|
||||||
Ensure the `json_transactions` folder is properly exported in the library file. | ||||||
|
||||||
[Example](https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-indexer-processor-example/blob/main/test-transactions-example/src/lib.rs). | ||||||
|
||||||
- **Add as a Dependency**: | ||||||
|
||||||
Include the crate containing the generated transactions as a dependency in the `Cargo.toml` file of your test crate. (Internally, transactions are stored in `aptos-core` and used in the [processor repo](https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-indexer-processors/blob/0c92d323b0f560b5f8601a831a36520ad9b72d68/rust/Cargo.toml#L34)). | ||||||

||||||
|
||||||
- **Integrate into Test Cases**: | ||||||
|
||||||
Use the exported transaction constants directly in your test cases to simulate real transactions and validate processing logic. | ||||||
|
||||||
[Example usage](https://github.com/aptos-labs/aptos-indexer-processor-example/tree/main/test-transactions-example). | ||||||
|
||||||
|
||||||
## Next Steps | ||||||
Once the transaction constants are integrated, you can use them in processor tests to validate functionality. For detailed instructions on writing processor tests, refer to [Writing Processor Tests](). | ||||||

i think it'd help to have details on why you need scripted txn's, and when you would use a scripted txn instead of an imported txn
