Compare Source

This version of Hardhat adds support for scoped tasks.

You can now create scopes to group multiple tasks that are related in some way:

const myScope = scope("my-scope", "Scope description");

myScope.task("my-task", "Do something")
  .setAction(async () => { ... });

myScope.task("my-other-task", "Do something else")
  .setAction(async () => { ... });
