 That's it.
 
 In an extensive one, where you have a contract importing some other contracts and having constructor with parameters,it can be verified with this command:
 ```
-sol-verifier -k <etherscan-api-key> -c <contract-file-path> -a <contract-address> -n <network i.e. mainnet, ropsten etc.> -p <constructor-params-values as: [param1,param2]> -N <contract-name>

 If contract is deployed by enabling optimization, flag `-o` can be used to enable the optimization during verification. On successful verification, you will get response as :
