POA TokenBridge / UI

DApp interface to transfer tokens and coins between chains.

Overview

Please refer to the POA TokenBridge overview first of all.

The UI provides an intuitive interface for assets transfer between networks running the Bridge smart contracts. Users can connect to a web3 wallet such as Nifty Wallet or MetaMask and complete the transfer through a web browser.

UI Features

Shows daily limits in both networks
Displays all events in both networks
Filter events from a specific block number on both sides of the bridge
Find a corresponding event on different sides of the bridge
Submit a transaction from Home to Foreign network
Submit a transaction from Foreign to Home network

User Transactions

Connect to the network you want to transfer coins from using a web3 wallet such as Nifty Wallet or MetaMask. This can be the Home or Foreign network.

The wallet must be funded to cover gas costs related to the transfer. With the Native-to-ERC20 bridge, the wallet must contain the amount to transfer, and with the ERC20-to-ERC20 bridge, the wallet must contain tokens linked with the network you are transferring from.

Process

Specify the amount to send.
Click the Transfer button.
Confirm the transaction via the web3 wallet.

The same address is used to send a coin from the Home network and receive a token on the Foreign Network. In order to send assets in the opposite direction, change the network in the web3 wallet. This changes the bridge interface to show the selected network on the left side of the bridge.

Some of the following resources are outdated, but provide a general sense of the UI and transactional flow.

Getting Started

The following is an example setup using the POA Sokol testnet as the Home network, and the Ethereum Kovan testnet as the Foreign network. The instructions for the Bridge UI are identical for an ERC20-to-ERC20 configuration, but the smart contract deployment steps will vary.

Dependencies

Example Setup

Create an empty folder for setting up your bridge. In this example we call it sokol-kovan-bridge. mkdir sokol-kovan-bridge && cd sokol-kovan-bridge
Prepare temporary ETH address(es) for deployment by creating new account(s) in Nifty Wallet or MetaMask. See the wallet resources if you need more information on this step. This account is used:
- for deploying bridge contracts to both networks
- as the bridge contracts management wallet
- as the validator's wallet address(es)
Fund the test account(s).
- Fund Home account(s) using the POA Sokol Faucet
- Get free Kovan Coins from the gitter channel or Iracus faucet for Foreign account(s). Get 5 Keth to 1 acc, and transfer from there to all other wallets if more than one account is used.
Deploy the Sokol <-> Kovan Bridge contracts.
- Go to the the sokol-kovan-bridge folder created in step 1 and git clone https://github.com/poanetwork/tokenbridge-contracts
- Follow instructions in the POA Bridge contracts repo.
- Set the parameters in the .env file.
  - DEPLOYMENT_ACCOUNT_PRIVATE_KEY: Export the private key from step 2
  - HOME_RPC_URL=https://sokol.poa.network
  - Wallet address(es) for bridge contracts management. For testing, you can use the same address for all address values in the file. This includes:
    - HOME_OWNER_MULTISIG
    - HOME_UPGRADEABLE_ADMIN_VALIDATORS
    - HOME_UPGRADEABLE_ADMIN_BRIDGE
    - FOREIGN_OWNER_MULTISIG
    - FOREIGN_UPGRADEABLE_ADMIN_VALIDATORS
    - FOREIGN_UPGRADEABLE_ADMIN_BRIDGE
    - VALIDATORS Note: Wallet address(es) for validator(s) are separated by a space. For testing, you can use the same address that was used as the bridge contracts management account.
  - FOREIGN_RPC_URL=https://kovan.infura.io/mew
- When deployment is finished, check that the bridgeDeploymentResults.json file exists in the tokenbridge-contracts/deploy directory and includes the bridge contract addresses.
Install and run the TokenBridge Oracle.

Go to the sokol-kovan-bridge folder
Initialize the monorepository
Go to oracle sub-repository
Follow the Oracle instructions.

If successful, you will see bridge processes run when you issue a command.
For example, run yarn watcher:signature-request.

Example Yarn Output:

[1539195000507] INFO (watcher-signature-request): Connected to redis
[1539195000545] INFO (watcher-signature-request): Connected to amqp Broker
[1539195006085] INFO (watcher-signature-request): Found 0 UserRequestForSignature events
[1539195011467] INFO (watcher-signature-request): Found 0 UserRequestForSignature events

Example Docker Output:

Note: The output will depend on your Docker configuration. You may need to access the container logs to view.

{"level":30,"time":1539366879816,"msg":"Connected to redis","validator":"0x..........","name":"watcher-signature-request","v":1}
{"level":30,"time":1539366879880,"msg":"Connected to amqp Broker","validator":"0x..........","name":"watcher-signature-request","v":1}
{"level":30,"time":1539366885587,"msg":"Found 0 UserRequestForSignature events","validator":"0x..........","name":"watcher-signature-request","v":1}

Keep the bridge processes running. Open a separate terminal window and go to the sokol-kovan-bridge folder to install and run the UI.

Go to the sokol-kovan-bridge/tokenbridge monorepository that was initialized in step 5.
Go to ui sub-repository
Create a .env file from the example file .env.example

cp .env.example .env

Insert the addresses from the bridgeDeploymentResults.json file (from step 4) into the .env file. No other changes are needed, see Env Parameter Details for information about each parameter.

cat ../tokenbridge-contracts/deploy/bridgeDeploymentResults.json

    # HomeBridge address in bridgeDeploymentResults.json
    COMMON_HOME_BRIDGE_ADDRESS=0x.. 
    # ForeignBridge address in bridgeDeploymentResults.json
    COMMON_FOREIGN_BRIDGE_ADDRESS=0x..
    # https public RPC node for Foreign network
    COMMON_FOREIGN_RPC_URL=https://kovan.infura.io/mew
    # public RPC node for Home network 
    COMMON_HOME_RPC_URL=https://sokol.poa.network

Run the dApp

Using Yarn:

yarn start

Using Docker:

docker-compose up -d

The application will run on http://localhost:PORT, where PORT is specified in your .env file.

Make sure your web3 wallet (Nifty Wallet, AlphaWallet or MetaMask) is funded and connected to the POA Sokol Network (see step 2)
Specify an amount and click Transfer to complete a cross-chain transaction from Sokol to Kovan
