Error prompt
Error: Mnemonic invalid or undefined
Cause:. Env file naming error
Change the process.env file name directly to .Env and then execute the truss console --network Kovan command
Steps for connecting the common chain of truss
Install dotenv and truffle-hdwallet-provider
npm install dotenv --save-dev -g
npm install truffle-hdwallet-provider --save-dev -g
Note: The windows system may need to restart these two dependent packages to take effect in the project
Create an .env file in the project of root directory, write Mnemonic and INFURA_API_KEY via Form of key-value pairs in the .env file
INFURA_API_KEY= your infura_api_key
MNEMONIC="your mnemonic"
Configure in truffle-config.jsor or truffle.js file:
// Import the dotenv library created to read the settings in the `.env` file
require('dotenv').config();
// import the truffle-hdwallet-provider library to rebuild the wallet
const HDWalletProvider = require('truffle-hdwallet-provider');
module.exports = {
networks: {
development: {
host: "127.0.0.1", // Localhost (default: none)
port: 7545, // Standard Ethereum port (default: none)
network_id: "*", // Any network (default: none)
},
// Useful for deploying to a public network.
// NB: It's important to wrap the provider as a function.

process.env.MNEMONIC,

Enter truffle console --network kovan in the console to connect to the public chain, and you can enter web3.eth.getBlock('latest').then(console.log) for verification. If the following content is returned, the connection is successful:
