# Installation
|
||||
|
||||
## With neo-go
|
||||
Install dependencies.
|
||||
VM is provided as part of neo-go binary, so usual neo-go build instructions
|
||||
are applicable.
|
||||
|
||||
`neo-go` uses [dep](https://github.com/golang/dep) as its dependency manager. After installing `deps` you can run:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
make deps
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Build the `neo-go` cli:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
make build
|
||||
```
|
||||
# Running the VM
|
||||
|
||||
Start the virtual machine:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
./bin/neo-go vm
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ ./bin/neo-go vm

### Loading in your script
|
||||
You can get help for each command and its parameters adding `help` as a

parameter to the command:

```

Usage: step [<n>]

<n> is optional parameter to specify number of instructions to run, example:

To invoke this contract we need to specify both the method and the arguments.

The first parameter (called method or operation) is always of type string. Notice that arguments can have different types, to make the VM aware of the type we need to specify it when calling `run`:

### Debugging
|
||||
## Debugging
|
||||
The `neo-go-vm` provides a debugger to inspect your program in-depth.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Stepping through the program
|
||||
Step 4 instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
NEO-GO-VM > step 4
|
||||
at breakpoint 4 (Opush4)
|
||||
NEO-GO-VM 4 >
|
||||
at breakpoint 3 (DUPFROMALTSTACK)
|
||||
NEO-GO-VM 3 >
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Using just `step` will execute 1 instruction at a time.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
NEO-GO-VM > step
|
||||
instruction pointer at 5 (Odup)
|
||||
NEO-GO-VM 5 >
|
||||
NEO-GO-VM 3 > step
|
||||
at breakpoint 4 (PUSH0)
|
||||
NEO-GO-VM 4 >
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Breakpoints
|
||||
|
||||
To place breakpoints:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
NEO-GO-VM > break 10
|
||||
breakpoint added at instruction 10
|
||||
NEO-GO-VM > cont
|
||||
at breakpoint 10 (Osetitem)
|
||||
at breakpoint 10 (SETITEM)
|
||||
