Azle Examples and Tests

TLDR

Use the examples directory to learn how to use Azle.

Stable mode examples are in the stable directory.

Experimental mode examples are in the experimental directory.

Examples

The examples directory is used for both automated testing and end-developer education. Please freely peruse the examples to learn how to use Azle; It's probably the best documentation that you'll find.

We use various directory names to indicate higher-level purposes:

• demo: Intended as more complete and easy-to-understand examples
• test: Intended as possibly more confusing and less finished examples that are used for automated testing
  • end_to_end: Simple example-based tests that call into a canister using the JavaScript agent or dfx
  • property: Property-based tests that attempt to test canisters under arbitrary inputs
  • candid_rpc: Tests for the Candid RPC (remote procedure call) ICP APIs (@query, @update, Candid, IDL, etc)
  • http_server: Tests for the HTTP Server functionality, doing away with Candid RPC and focusing on core web 2 APIs
