Package Exports
- thirdweb
- thirdweb/dist/cli/index.js
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (thirdweb) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

thirdweb CLI
Publish and deploy smart contracts without dealing with private keys
Getting started
The thirdweb CLI is your one-stop-shop for publishing custom contracts for your team or the world to use. The CLI uploads all necessary data to decentralized storage and makes it available to deploy via the thirdweb sdk or thirdweb dashboard.
This brings all the capabilities of thirdweb to your own custom contracts.
Deploying your contract
npx thirdweb@latest deployThis command will:
- auto-detect any contracts in your project
- compile your project
- Upload ABIs to IPFS
- Open the deploy flow in your thirdweb dashboard in a browser
From the thirdweb dashboard, you can review and deploy your contracts on any supported EVM chain.
Deploying contracts this way gives you access to:
- auto generated SDKs for react, node, python, go
- dashboards to manage, monitor and interact with your contracts
Releasing your contract
npx thirdweb@latest publishCreates an official published contract, along with:
- author attribution
- contract information
- instructions on how to use and what it's for
- versioning
- release notes
Publishing contracts this way gives you shareable URL to let others deploy your contracts in one click. It lets you manage published versions and get attribution for deployed contracts. Published contracts are registered on-chain (Polygon) and IPFS, for free (gasless).
Deploying published contracts give deployers access to automatic SDKs to integrate into their app and dashboards to manage and monitor the deployed contracts.
Detecting contract extensions
npx thirdweb@latest detectAs you're developing your contracts, you may want to implement Extensions to unlock functionality on the SDKs (ie. nft minting with automatic upload to IPFS) and the dashboard (ie. generated UI to manage permissions). This command will show what extensions were detected on your contract, unlocking the corresponding functionality on the SDKs and dashboard.
Global installation
We recommend using npx to always get the latest version. Alternatively, you can install the CLI as a global command on your machine:
npm i -g @thirdweb-dev/cliSupported projects
To publish, you need to be in a directory that contains a project which the CLI is compatible with. The projects we support so far:
- hardhat
- forge
- truffle
- solc
Running the examples
Clone the repo and run this command after installing the CLI tool:
$ cd examples/hardhat
$ npx thirdweb@latest publishLocal Development
The simplest way to work on the CLI locally is to:
- Install the package locally by running
git clone https://github.com/thirdweb-dev/js.git- From the project root run
yarn && yarn build- From inside
js/packages/cliRun thebuild:watchcommand to compile any changes in real time
$ npm install -g ./
$ yarn run build:watch
