### ⚠️ Warnings

1. **Contract Compilation**
   - ⚠️ Direct compilation in source project may require dependencies
   - ✅ `force-deploy-link.sh` creates standalone contract (no dependencies needed)

2. **Existing LINK Token**
   - ⚠️ LINK_TOKEN configured in .env: `0xd6969bC19b53f866C64f2148aE271B2Dae0C58E4`
   - ⚠️ Contract not found on-chain (previous deployment attempt failed)

## Contract Specification

### MockLinkToken Contract

**Location**: `/home/intlc/projects/smom-dbis-138/contracts/tokens/MockLinkToken.sol`

**Properties**:
- Name: "Chainlink Token"
- Symbol: "LINK"
- Decimals: 18
- Type: ERC20 (minimal implementation)

**Functions**:
- `mint(address to, uint256 amount)` - Mint tokens
- `transfer(address to, uint256 amount)` - Transfer tokens
- `transferFrom(address from, address to, uint256 amount)` - Transfer from
- `approve(address spender, uint256 amount)` - Approve spender
- `balanceOf(address)` - Get balance
- `allowance(address owner, address spender)` - Get allowance
- `totalSupply()` - Get total supply

**Initial Supply**: 1,000,000 LINK (1M) minted to deployer

## Deployment Methods

### Method 1: Using force-deploy-link.sh (Recommended)

This script creates a standalone contract and deploys it:

```bash
cd /home/intlc/projects/proxmox/explorer-monorepo
./scripts/force-deploy-link.sh [GAS_PRICE]
```

**Example**:
```bash
./scripts/force-deploy-link.sh 20000000000  # 20 gwei
```

**Advantages**:
- ✅ No external dependencies
- ✅ Creates contract inline
- ✅ Multiple deployment methods (forge script, forge create, cast send)
- ✅ Automatic verification

### Method 2: Using Source Project Script

```bash
cd /home/intlc/projects/smom-dbis-138
forge script script/DeployMockLinkToken.s.sol:DeployMockLinkToken \
  --rpc-url http://192.168.11.250:8545 \
  --broadcast \
  --legacy \
  --gas-price 20000000000
```

**Requirements**:
- Source project must have all dependencies installed
- May need: `forge install` for dependencies

### Method 3: Using deploy-via-rpc-json.sh

Direct JSON-RPC deployment (bypasses forge):

```bash
cd /home/intlc/projects/proxmox/explorer-monorepo
./scripts/deploy-via-rpc-json.sh [GAS_PRICE] [GAS_LIMIT]
```

**Example**:
```bash
./scripts/deploy-via-rpc-json.sh 20000000000 10000000
```

## Deployment Checklist

Before deploying, ensure:

- [x] PRIVATE_KEY is set in .env
- [x] RPC_URL is accessible
- [x] Deployer has sufficient balance (✅ 999M+ ETH)
- [x] Network is operational (✅ Block 175408+)
- [x] Chain ID is correct (✅ 138)
- [x] Foundry is installed
- [x] Deployment script is ready

**Note**: Previous deployment attempts failed due to network-level restrictions. The DEBUG API should be enabled to get revert reasons if deployment fails again.

---

## Post-Deployment Steps

After successful deployment:

1. **Update .env**
   ```bash
   LINK_TOKEN=<deployed_address>
   ```

2. **Mint Initial Supply** (if not done automatically)
   ```bash
   cast send $LINK_TOKEN "mint(address,uint256)" \
     $DEPLOYER 1000000e18 \
     --rpc-url $RPC_URL \
     --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
     --legacy
   ```

3. **Fund Bridge Contracts**
   ```bash
   # WETH9 Bridge: 10 LINK
   cast send $LINK_TOKEN "transfer(address,uint256)" \
     $WETH9_BRIDGE 10e18 \
     --rpc-url $RPC_URL \
     --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
     --legacy
   
   # WETH10 Bridge: 10 LINK
   cast send $LINK_TOKEN "transfer(address,uint256)" \
     $WETH10_BRIDGE 10e18 \
     --rpc-url $RPC_URL \
     --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
     --legacy
   ```

4. **Update Token Lists**
   - Update `token-lists/lists/dbis-138.tokenlist.json`
   - Update `token-list.json`

5. **Run Database Migration**
   ```bash
   psql -U postgres -d explorer -f backend/database/migrations/0009_add_link_token.up.sql
   ```

## Troubleshooting

### If Deployment Fails

1. **Check DEBUG API** (if enabled):
   ```bash
   curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"debug_traceTransaction","params":["<tx_hash>",{"tracer":"callTracer"}],"id":1}' \
     http://192.168.11.250:8545 | jq
   ```

2. **Check Transaction Status**:
   ```bash
   cast receipt <tx_hash> --rpc-url http://192.168.11.250:8545
   ```

3. **Check Network Logs**:
   - Besu logs: `journalctl -u besu-rpc -n 100`
   - Network permissions
   - Gas limits

### Common Issues

- **"Intrinsic gas exceeds gas limit"**: Increase gas limit
- **"Transaction reverted"**: Check DEBUG API for revert reason
- **"Contract not found"**: Wait for confirmation or check transaction status
