How do I call contracts or send Transactions to existing contracts?

The Sandbox provides the ability to load up a contract that has been deployed using Cakeshop or the Cakeshop APIs and to make Read calls or submit Transactions to those contracts. See the Sandbox section for further details.

How do I find existing contracts?

The Contracts explorer lists all public contracts that have been deployed using Cakeshop or the Cakeshop APIs.

How do I deploy contracts to my network using Cakeshop?

The Sandbox provides the ability to write and deploy contracts onto your chain. See the Sandbox section for further details.

How do I run Cakeshop on any Ethereum build or on my private Ethereum network?

See the Attach Mode instructions for using Cakeshop with your Ethereum-like node. This provides you the ability to start Cakeshop without auto-starting a geth node, and then attach it to your already-running node.

How do I run Cakeshop on many nodes?

See the Multi-Instance Setup instructions for managing multiple nodes that you control on an Ethereum-based network.

How do I save the solidity files that I have written in the Sandbox?

You can't explicitly save these files at the moment, but they are auto-saved to your browser cache. For this reason, you shouldn't use Cakeshop as your version management system and you should definitely ensure you save them in a proper VCS outside of Cakeshop.

What is an 'Ethereum-like' ledger/node?

An 'Ethereum-like' ledger/node is one that uses the Ethereum JSON RPC API. The Ethereum clients and Quorum are examples.

Note that if an Ethereum-forked ledger forks too far away from base Ethereum then there may be some issues with using Cakeshop on top of it.
