+# publish-via-explorer
+
+This tool prepares a Move package for publishing using the Movement Explorer UI.
+
+It compiles the embedded Move package and outputs the required `arg0` and `arg1` values for the `publish_package_txn` function:
+
+[https://explorer.movementlabs.xyz/account/0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001/modules/run/code/publish\_package\_txn?network=mainnet](https://explorer.movementlabs.xyz/account/0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001/modules/run/code/publish_package_txn?network=mainnet)
+
+## Function Signature
+
+```move
+entry fun publish_package_txn(
+  owner: &signer,
+  metadata_serialized: vector<u8>,
+  code: vector<vector<u8>>
+)
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+1. Ensure the `movement` CLI is installed and available in your `PATH`.
+
+2. Run from the workspace root:
+
+   ```bash
+   cargo run -p publish-via-explorer
+   ```
+
+3. The tool will compile the embedded Move package and output two formatted arguments:
+
+   * `arg0` (vector<u8>)
+   * `arg1` (vector\<vector<u8>>)
+
+   It will also write these to:
+
+   ```
+   publish-via-explorer/build/hello/explorer_payload.log
+   ```
+
+## Submitting via the Explorer UI
+
+1. Open the following link (for mainnet publishing... you can switch to testnet if you prefer):
+
+   [https://explorer.movementlabs.xyz/account/0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001/modules/run/code/publish\_package\_txn?network=mainnet](https://explorer.movementlabs.xyz/account/0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001/modules/run/code/publish_package_txn?network=mainnet)
+
+2. Input the args:
+
+   * **signer**: your account address (must be funded)
+   * **arg0**: the full vector<u8> array (surrounded by brackets)
+   * **arg1**: the full vector\<vector<u8>> array (outer and inner brackets must be present)
+
+   Example:
+
+   ```json
+   arg0: [5,104,101,108,108,111,...]
+   arg1: [[161,28,235,11,...]]
+   ```
+   > [!TIP] Be sure to connect to the explorer with the same wallet that you used in your local Movement config.
+
+   After successful publishing via explorer, you will see a successful message as follows:
