# Deploy and verify contract by Foundry
{% hint style="success" %}
To set up a directory for Foundry with Git, ensure the directory is empty and not linked to another Git branch. Use the `git init` command in the directory to create a new Git repository, which allows Foundry to work correctly. This process is crucial for proper version control and integration with Foundry.
{% endhint %}
### Initialize the foundry directory
```
forge init
```
### Install an open-source solidity repo
```
forge install OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts
```
### Open the directory by vs-code
```
code .
```
### Modify "Counter.sol"
1 Rename the file to "TokenTest.sol"
2 Modify the "TokenTest.sol" code as follows:
```solidity
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity ^0.8.13;
import "lib/openzeppelin-contracts/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol";
contract TokenTest is ERC20 {
constructor() ERC20("BEVM", "BEVM") {
_mint(msg.sender, 1000 * 10 ** 18);
}
}
```
### Modify "Counter.s.sol"
1 Rename the file to "TokenTest.s.sol"
2 Modify the "TokenTest.s.sol" code as follows:
```solidity
// SPDX-License-Identifier: UNLICENSED
// scripts/DeployContract.s.sol
pragma solidity ^0.8.13;
import "forge-std/Script.sol";
import "../src/TokenTest.sol";
contract DeployContract is Script {
function run() public returns(TokenTest){
vm.startBroadcast();
TokenTest tokenTest = new TokenTest(/* constructor arguments */);
vm.stopBroadcast();
return tokenTest;
}
}
```
### Delete "test.sol"
It's optional. You may adjust the code accordingly.
### Add a ".env" File
```properties
ETH_RPC_URL=
PRIVATE_KEY=
VERIFIER_URL=https://scan-canary-test-api.bevm.io/api
```
### Activate ".env"
```
source .env
```
### Deploy and verify your contract
{% hint style="info" %}
When utilizing BEVM Canary/BEVM Canary TestNet, to align the Solidity version correctly, you may insert "solc\_version = "0.8.13" " into the "foundry.toml" file within the "\[profile.default]" section. This adjustment may require you to modify certain dependencies.
{% endhint %}
{% code overflow="wrap" %}
```
forge script script/TokenTest.s.sol --rpc-url $ETH_RPC_URL --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY --broadcast --verify --verifier blockscout --verifier-url $VERIFIER_URL
```
{% endcode %}
Afterward, the current status is provided beneath.
