Canton-deploy: Deploy Daml packages to a Canton validator directly from your Daml project

Hey Canton builders!

I’m Vishwas, Co-Founder of LYNC.

If you’ve deployed a Daml package to a validator, you know the process: dpm build, find the DAR, push it over the Admin API, vet it, allocate the parties, create the user, grant rights, then check it actually landed. Everything manually, every time, on every network.

We built canton-deploy to make that one command.
It’s a DPM component, so it lives in your daml.yaml and runs from your project root:

dpm add component ghcr.io/lync-world/canton-deploy:0.1.1
dpm install package
dpm canton-deploy init
dpm canton-deploy deploy --network localnet

What can you do with it?
deploy builds, uploads, vets, allocates your parties and onboards your users in one go.
The rest of the CLI covers the things you’d otherwise open a console for: status, dars, packages, parties, users, contracts, run for Daml Scripts.
Network profiles (localnet / devnet / your own) live in one config file.

Getting started
Read the documentation and try canton-deploy

How does it work with your project?
Tell us what worked, where you got stuck, or what’s missing from your deployment workflow. A short reply with your setup and feedback would be really helpful.
If you know another team building on Canton, please share this with them. We’d love to connect!
