Deploy

Web3 SDKs support to interact with Smart Contract via contract instance, not low-level transaction.

Import the web3 and @kaiachain/web3js-ext packages to add kaia features on web3

Define sender address and private key

Set up the provider with the specified kaia Baobab testnet URL. A provider in web3js is a read-only abstraction to access the blockchain data.

Also, you can change the provider URL from baobab to allthatnode

Convert the sender's private key to an account using web3.eth.accounts.privateKeyToAccount

Define compiled contract bytecode to deploy

Define contract Abi, you can get it from compiled solidity code

Create a contract instance using Web3.eth.Contract and defined contractAbi

Encode the data needed to deploy the contract

Create a transaction object with data is the encoded contract bytecode, from: senderAddress is sender's wallet address

Sign the transaction with the sender's account using signTransaction

Send the signed transaction to network and wait for the receipt
