Log contract events

[elie222]

Is it possible to see events in Ganache client logs?

Not at the moment, but I think this is an excellent idea. We'll also be adding events to the transactions pages in the ganache-ui.

Ganache UI 2.0 adds events (even decoded ones!). You can checkout the beta here!

Can I get access to all events via API so I can integrate my code locally?

[davidmurdoch]

You can do it programatically via web3's allEvents method: https://web3js.readthedocs.io/en/1.0/web3-eth-contract.html#events

Do we know on the roadmap starting what version of truffle will ganache 2.0 be the standard?

Reviving this issue as we think this is a fantastic idea, albeit rather difficult to implement on ganache's side.

To recap some internal conversations:

• this idea seems like a great idea from truffle develop, as truffle has all of the tools necessary to decode the events
• we could come up with ways of showing this in ganache if ganache knows about the source code (and other information), though circular deps become an issue between ganache and truffle.
• truffle events command that can connect to any blockchain and watch the events as they happen.
• more ways...
