The script implements comprehensive error handling:
- Prerequisite Validation: Checks all dependencies before starting
- Build Verification: Validates WASM file exists after build
- Optimization Verification: Validates optimized WASM exists
- Contract ID Validation: Validates Contract ID format (56-char Stellar format)
- Deployment Verification: Queries contract on network after deployment
- File Operations: Backs up existing .env before modification
Environment Variables Supported:
SOROBAN_NETWORK: Override network (default: testnet)SOROBAN_SOURCE: Override source account (default: default)VAULT_WASM_PATH: Override WASM output path
Command-Line Arguments:
--network NETWORK: Specify network--source ACCOUNT: Specify funded account--env-file PATH: Specify .env file location--help: Display help message
Generated .env Format:
# Axionvera Network Configuration
# Generated by deploy_testnet.sh on <timestamp>
SOROBAN_NETWORK=testnet
SOROBAN_SOURCE=default
VAULT_CONTRACT_ID=CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
# Token Configuration (set these before running initialize)
# VAULT_ADMIN=<admin-account-id>
# VAULT_DEPOSIT_TOKEN=<deposit-token-contract-id>
# VAULT_REWARD_TOKEN=<reward-token-contract-id>- Purpose: Complete guide for new contributors

Added to package.json:
"deploy:testnet": "bash scripts/deploy_testnet.sh"Usage:
npm run deploy:testnet- deploy.ts: TypeScript deployment script (unchanged)
- initialize.ts: Contract initialization (unchanged)
- deploy-infrastructure.sh: Terraform deployment (unchanged)
The new script complements existing scripts:
deploy_testnet.sh: Build + Optimize + Deploy (new)deploy.ts: Deploy only (existing)initialize.ts: Initialize contract (existing)
The script is designed for CI/CD pipelines:
- Exit codes indicate success/failure
- No interactive prompts (except help)
- Environment variable support
- Detailed logging for debugging
- Idempotent operations

The implementation provides a production-ready, one-click deployment solution that:
- ✅ Automates the entire build-optimize-deploy workflow
- ✅ Provides clear, colored output for user feedback
- ✅ Includes comprehensive error handling and validation
- ✅ Saves Contract ID to .env for network-node consumption
- ✅ Includes extensive documentation for new contributors
- ✅ Follows bash best practices and security guidelines
- ✅ Integrates seamlessly with existing npm scripts
- ✅ Ready for CI/CD pipeline integration
The script significantly reduces the friction for Testnet testing and enables new backend contributors to deploy contracts with a single command.
