how to create more account

[abdullah-19]

There is only 4 accounts of 3 types.

• super user
• citizen
• police
  Now if I want to promote someone to police from a citizen
  Or create a new citizen ?

I though creating a new issue would be more nice

I'm new on blockchain, now I watched few videos and they seemed easy to me.
To understand it better, I'm playing with some blockchain repo, and the I found this :

It started with 3 accounts, how can I add more?

I was going through this repo : https://github.com/manki11/DIR_HashHacks/
And after running this, I got this.

Thanks in advance. @upperwal

1. Refer to Ganache configuration to add more accounts on startup.
2. Add new options with values "4", "5", ... here:

OpenComplaintNetwork/src/Components/Pages/View/view.js

Lines 365 to 368 in 1fd7317

	<option value="0">Super User</option>
	<option value="1">Police</option>
	<option value="2">Citizen 1</option>
	<option value="3">Citizen 2</option>

OpenComplaintNetwork/src/Components/Pages/Register/register.js

Lines 145 to 148 in 1fd7317

	<option value="0">Super User</option>
	<option value="1">Police</option>
	<option value="2">Citizen 1</option>
	<option value="3">Citizen 2</option>

Better if you can create a component around this UI.

If you follow these two steps the code will automatically detect the account using the following code.

OpenComplaintNetwork/src/Components/Pages/View/view.js

Lines 173 to 179 in 1fd7317

	getAccounts() {
	var context = this
	this.web3.eth.getAccounts().then(function(res) {
	context.accounts = res
	console.log(context.accounts)
	})
	}

When I start truffle develop, and compile and migrate then I get these 10 accounts :

Accounts:
(0) 0xc96b6feba12d961dead3776e630b94c8fe705427

@upperwal Can I somehow add more accounts ? More than 10 ?

Cause I tried adding in register.js :

<option value="0">Super User</option>
<option value="1">Police</option>
<option value="2">Citizen 1</option>
<option value="3">Citizen 2</option>
<option value="4">Citizen 3</option>
<option value="5">Citizen 4</option>
<option value="6">Citizen 5</option>
<option value="7">Citizen 6</option>
<option value="8">Citizen 7</option>
<option value="9">Citizen 8</option>
<option value="10">Citizen 9</option>
<option value="11">Citizen 10</option>
<option value="12">Citizen 11</option>

More options, but it seems it just picks the n-th account from those 10 accounts I mentioned here.

Works till Citizen 8.

[upperwal]

There are only 10 account with index from 0 to 9. So it won't work beyond Citizen 8 which is assigned index 9.

You can follow this guide to increase the default account numbers: https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/63600/get-more-than-10-accounts-in-the-truffle-develop-blockchain
