# POA TokenBridge / UI
|
|
DApp interface to transfer tokens and coins between chains.
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
Please refer to the [POA TokenBridge](../README.md) 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](https://github.com/poanetwork/nifty-wallet) or [MetaMask](https://metamask.io/) 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.
|
|
|

|
## 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
|
|
|
|
- [Smart Contracts](https://github.com/poanetwork/tokenbridge-contracts)
|
|
- [Oracle](../oracle/README.md)
|
|
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/)
|
|
- [AlphaWallet](https://alphawallet.com/) or [Nifty Wallet](https://github.com/poanetwork/nifty-wallet) or [MetaMask](https://metamask.io/)
|
|
|
|
### Example Setup
|
|
|
|
1. 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`
|
|
|
|
2. Prepare temporary ETH address(es) for deployment by creating new account(s) in Nifty Wallet or MetaMask. See the [wallet resources](#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)
|
|
|
|
3. Fund the test account(s).
|
|
* Fund Home account(s) using the [POA Sokol Faucet](https://faucet.poa.network/)
|
|
* Get free Kovan Coins from the [gitter channel](https://gitter.im/kovan-testnet/faucet) or [Iracus faucet](https://github.com/kovan-testnet/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.
|
|
|
|
4. 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](https://github.com/poanetwork/tokenbridge-contracts).
|
|
* 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.
|
|
|
|
5. Install and run the TokenBridge Oracle.
|
|
* Go to the `sokol-kovan-bridge` folder
|
|
* [Initialize](../README.md#initializing-the-monorepository) the monorepository
|
|
* Go to `oracle` sub-repository
|
|
* Follow the [Oracle instructions](../oracle/README.md).
|
|
|
|
If successful, you will see bridge processes run when you issue a command.
|
|
For example, run `yarn watcher:signature-request`.
|
|
|
|
**Example Yarn Output:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
[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.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
{"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}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
6. 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](.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](#env-parameter-details) for information about each parameter.
|
|
```
|
|
cat ../tokenbridge-contracts/deploy/bridgeDeploymentResults.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# 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
