who is the owner of the contracts deployed using truffle?

Question

I am using testrpc and truffle to test my contract.

When I type truffle migrate , this will deploy my contract to the testrpc network.

My question is , which account (from testrpc accounts) has been used to deploy the contract.

In other word, whose the contract owner?

Thank you in advance

Answer 1

By default the owner is accounts[0] so the first account on the list but you can set the owner by adding "from" in the truffle.js config file

module.exports = {
  networks: {
    development: {
      host: "localhost",
      port: 8545,
      network_id: "*",
      from: "0xda9b1a939350dc7198165ff84c43ce77a723ef73"
    }
  }
};
