Hey, TypeChain author here.
Yeah that's funny :D I was looking for a tool like that, haven't found anything so I wrote my own. Now it seems like there is a couple of tools doing similar things (also 0x is working on something similar).
Good luck with your project — your approach is a little bit different since you wrap around truffle contract where we decided to come up with our own api. I am excited to see how it develops further!
- buybackoff 9y agoHi! Thanks! I will replace truffle-contract with web3 1.0 contracts API. Current web3 1.0-beta doesn't work well with TS. The dependency was accidental since I was already using it, while writing codegen stuff took very little time and was just a helper script in a contracts repo initially. Our public API is plain async TS, truffle-contract is only an implementation detail. Need for such solution seems so obvious given that we have Go ABI gen tool for a similar purpose and JS is the main language for DApps (and probably Node.js for backend is more popular than Go). Also, truffle migration looked like a fragile black box, and testing with `jest --watch` instead of truffle suite is much nicer and faster.
