• Video: Introduction to Smart Contracts with Python 3.6 on the NEO Platform (by Tom Saunders) -- must watch video, introduction into neo-python and neo-boa
• Workshop Agenda
• Video of this workshop at DevCon 2018

If you have any issues or ideas for improvements, please leave your feedback on the GitHub repository and on the NEO Discord.

1. Setup neo-python and a neo-privatenet Docker container optionally with neoscan
2. First smart contract, just printing "Hello World": 1-print.py
   • Learn using neo-python's build command with the test argument
   • Test differences between Log and Notify
3. First smart contract using print, Runtime.Log and Runtime.Notify: 2-print-and-notify.py
   • Learn using neo-python's build command with the test argument
   • Test differences between Log and Notify
4. Basic smart contract using storage: 3-storage.py
   • Storage is one of the key components of most smart contracts
   • Everything is handled as bytes
   • Learn about debugstorage on/off/reset
5. Check out Dictionary support and neo.Runtime.Serialize
6. A domain registration smart contract: 4-domain.py
   • users can query, register, transfer and delete domains
   • important concept: checking of ownership
7. NEX ICO template: https://github.com/neonexchange/neo-ico-template

Note: Inside neo-python's prompt.py you need to run config sc-events on to see any kind of notifications of the examples!

Linux or Mac is recommended, and you need Python 3.6+. If you are using Windows, either setup a VM or use the Linux Subsystem (see also here for more infos).

Clone neo-python and setup everything as described in the README. Then create a symlink of this workshop folder to neo-python/sc, which makes it easier to import, build and execute the smart contracts in this workshop.

Always work with a private network with this Docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/cityofzion/neo-privatenet You can also easily run the private network with neoscan - just use this Docker compose file:

$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/slipo/neo-scan-docker/master/docker-compose.yml -O docker-compose-neoscan.yml
$ docker-compose -f docker-compose-neoscan.yml up

See here for more information.

# These two are just examples for playing around and experimenting:
def Main():
def Main(operation):

# This is how most real smart contracts look like:
def Main(operation, args):

You can get the last block timestamp from the blockchain with this code.

def now():
    height = GetHeight()
    current_block = GetHeader(height)
    return current_block.Timestamp

Might not work with neo-boa 0.2.2, downgrade to 0.2.1 (see also CityOfZion/neo-boa#35).
