In this tutorial, we will show you how to create a subscription platform using the Celo composer react-app and the hardhat package. The platform will offer three subscription plans that users can choose from, and payment will be charged monthly in cUSD. We will also use the OpenZeppelin Defender autotask to handle the monthly subscription charges and an email service to notify users of the charge status. By the end of this tutorial, you will have a working subscription platform and the knowledge to customize and build upon it for your own use case.

Install dependecies

//In root folder
yarn

Create .env file in packages/hardhat folder.

Paste the default inside

PRIVATE_KEY=0xba28d5cea192f121db5f1dd7f501532170bb7bb984c4d3747df3e251e529f77d
ACCOUNT_ADDRESS=0x81cb394E24e5AeA53C3BD6f3d48b43e9A3817CC6

Generate your own private key and address.

npx hardhat create-account

Fund your address with test tokens from Celo public faucet https://celo.org/developers/faucet.

npx hardhat test test/subscription-test.js --network hardhat

Deploy contract on Alfajores

cd packages/hardhat

yarn run deloy

cd packages/react-app

yarn run dev

Edit the scripts/transferOwnership.js file and change the addresses for the contract and relayer respectively

npx hardhat run scripts/transferOwnership.js

Run the script to give allowance to 24 cUSD and subscribe to basic plan for 12 months.

npx hardhat run scripts/suscribe.js

Most preferabbly use Defender Admin to interact with the cUSD and PaymentSubscription contracts to perform this actions
