Solana and Anchor Cheat Sheet

1. Installation

Update and add dependencies (for linux)

sudo apt update && upgrade
sudo apt-get install -y \
    build-essential \
    pkg-config \
    libudev-dev llvm libclang-dev \
    protobuf-compiler libssl-dev

Install Rust
Rust is required to build Solana programs.

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

After installation, add Rust to your path:

source $HOME/.cargo/env

To update Rust, run:

rustup update

Verify Rust Installation
Check the installed version of Rust:

rustc --version

Install Solana CLI
To install the Solana command-line tools, run:

sh -c "$(curl -sSfL https://release.solana.com/stable/install)"

(then add it to the PATH)

To update Solana, run:

solana-install update

Verify Solana Installation
Check the installed version of Rust:

solana --version

Install Anchor
Install Anchor CLI using Anchor version manager:

cargo install --git https://github.com/coral-xyz/anchor avm --locked --force

then:

avm install latest
avm use latest

Verify Anchor Installation
Check the installed version of Rust:

anchor --version

Trouble Shooting (adapt to the correct versions)

cargo build-sbf --tools-version v1.39
solana-install init 1.18.17

solana --version
cargo update -p solana-program@1.18.17 --precise {the solana version}

2. Solana CLI Commands

Common Commands

  • Get the cluster configuration: solana config get

  • Set the cluster (e.g., devnet, testnet, mainnet): solana config set --url https://api.devnet.solana.com

  • Create a new wallet: solana-keygen new

  • Get the current wallet: solana-keygen pubkey

  • Check wallet balance: solana balance <optional address>

  • Airdrop SOL (for devnet): solana airdrop 1 <optional address>

3. Anchor Commands

Common Commands

  • Initialize a new Anchor project: anchor init my_project

  • Get the cluster list anchor cluster list

  • Build the Anchor program: anchor build

  • Deploy the Anchor program: anchor deploy

  • Test the program: anchor test

  • Upgrade the program: anchor upgrade <target/deploy/program.so> --program-id <program-id>

4. Creating a Solana dApp

  • Create a new project: npx create-solana-dapp@latest
