This enable Types & APIs suggetions/auto-completion via IntelliSense for any on-chain interactions.

• -s, --subpath: Using subpath packages (e.g: dedot/types instead of @dedot/types), default: true

dedot typink

Generate Types & APIs for an ink! smart contract given its metadata.

Usage:

npx dedot typink -m ./path/to/metadata.json # or metadata.contract

Options:

• -m, --medadata: Path to contract metadata file (.json, .contract)

• -o, --output: Folder to put generated files

• -c, --contract: Custom contract name, default is contract name from metadata
