APP_ID and PRIVATE_KEY are here for internal developers to use. If you are an external developer, APP_IDand PRIVATE_KEY are automatically generated when you install the app on your repository.

Note: When setting up the project, please do not rename the .env.example file to .env as it will delete the environment example from the repository. Instead, it is recommended to make a copy of the .env.example file and replace the values with the appropriate ones.

Overview

This bot is designed to exist as a GitHub Action.
The code must be compiled using @vercel/ncc because all the dependencies (e.g. node_modules) must be included and committed on the repository for the GitHub Actions runner to use.

How to use

Go to the UbiquiBot App Marketplace
Choose a plan and install UbiquiBot on your repository
Congratulations! You can now use the UbiquiBot to manage your bounties.

To test the bot, you can:

Create a new issue
Add a time label, ex: Time: <1 Day
Add a priority label, ex: Priority: 0 (Normal)
At this point the bot should add a price label.

Configuration

evm-network-id is ID of the EVM-compatible network that will be used for payouts.

price-multiplier is a base number that will be used to calculate bounty price based on the following formula: price = price-multiplier * time-label-weight * priority-label-weight * 100

time-labels are labels for marking the time limit of the bounty:

name is a human-readable name
value is number of seconds that corresponds to the time limit of the bounty

priority-labels are labels for marking the priority of the bounty:

name is a human-readable name

command-settings are setting to enable or disable a command

name is the name of the command
enabled is a true or false value to enable or disable a command

default-labels are labels that are applied when an issue is created without any time or priority labels.

assistive-pricing to create a new pricing label if it doesn't exist. Can be true or false.

disable-analytics can be true or false that disables or enables weekly analytics collection by Ubiquity.

payment-permit-max-price sets the max amount for automatic payout of bounties when the issue is closed.

comment-incentives can be true or false that enable or disable comment incentives. These are payments generated for comments in the issue by contributors, excluding the assignee.

issue-creator-multiplier is a number that defines a base multiplier for calculating incentive for the creator of the issue.

comment-element-pricing defines how much is a part of the comment worth. For example text: 0.1 means that any text in the comment will add 0.1

incentives defines incentive rewards:

comment defines comment rewards:
- elements defines reward value for HTML elements such as p, img, a.
- totals:
  - word defines reward for each word in the comment

max-concurrent-assigns is the maximum number of bounties that can be assigned to a bounty hunter at once. This excludes bounties with delayed or approved pull request reviews.

register-wallet-with-verification can be true or false. If enabled, it requires a signed message to set wallet address. This prevents users from setting wallet address from centralized exchanges, which would make payments impossible to claim.

promotion-comment is a message that is appended to the payment permit comment.

How to run locally

Create a new project at Supabase. Add Project URL and API Key to the .env file:


SUPABASE_URL="XXX"
SUPABASE_KEY="XXX"

Create a new organization at Memzo. Add LOGDNA_INGESTION_KEY to the .env file:


LOGDNA_INGESTION_KEY ="XXX"

Add FOLLOW_UP_TIME and DISQUALIFY_TIME to the .env file if you don't want to use default ones.


FOLLOW_UP_TIME="4 days" // 4 days
DISQUALIFY_TIME="7 days" // 7 days

yarn install
Open 2 terminal instances:
- in one instance run yarn build --watch (compiles the Typescript code)
- in another instance run yarn start:watch (runs the bot locally)
Open localhost:3000 and follow instructions to add the bot to one of your repositories.

At this point the .env files auto-fill the empty fields (PRIVATE_KEY and APP_ID) if it is not previously filled. Now you can make changes to the repository on GitHub (e.g. add a bounty) and the bot should react.

You can, for example:

Create a new issue
Add a time label, ex: Time: <1 Day
Add a priority label, ex: Priority: 0 (Normal)
At this point the bot should add a price label, you should see event logs in one of your opened terminals

How it works

Bounty bot is built using the probot framework so initially the bot is a github app. But thanks to the probot/adapter-github-actions you can also use the bot as a github action.

You can use the bounty bot as a github app.

When using as a github app the flow is the following:

Bounty bot is added to a repository as a github app
You run the bot "backend" (for example on your local machine)
Some event happens in a repository and the bot should react somehow (for example: on adding a time label to an issue the bot should add a price label)
Event details are sent to your deployed bot instance (to a webhook URL that was set in github app's settings)
The bot handles the event

Payments Permits in a local instance

For payment to work in your local instance, ubiquibot must be set up in a Github organization. It will not work for a ubiquibot instance set up in a personal account. Once, you have an ubiquibot instance working in an organization, follow the steps given below:

Create a new private repository in your Github organization with name ubiquibot-config
Add your ubiquibot app to ubiquibot-config repository.
Create a file .github/ubiquibot-config.yml in it. Fill the file with contents from this file.
Go to https://pay.ubq.fi/keygen and generate X25519 public/private key pair. Fill private key of your wallet's address in PLAIN_TEXT field and click Encrypt.
Copy the CIPHER_TEXT and append it to your repo ubiquibot-config/.github/ubiquibot-config.yml as

private-key-encrypted: "PASTE_YOUR_CIPHER_TEXT_HERE"
Copy the X25519_PRIVATE_KEY and append it in your local ubiquibot repository .env file as

X25519_PRIVATE_KEY=PASTE_YOUR_X25519_PRIVATE_KEY_HERE

How to QA any additions to the bot

Make sure you have your local instance of ubiquibot running.

Fork the ubiquibot repo and add your local instance of ubiquibot to the forked repository.
Enable Github action running on the forked repo and allow issues on the settings tab.
Create a QA issue similar to this where you show the feature working in the forked repo.
Describe carefully the steps taken to get the feature working, this way our team can easily verify.
Link that QA issue to the pull request as indicated on the template before requesting a review.

How to create a new release

Update the version in package.json: yarn version --new-version x.x.x
Commit and create a new tag: git commit -am x.x.x && git tag -am x.x.x
Push tags: git push origin v"x.x.x"
The Github action will create a release by recognizing the version tag

├── src : Main source code
├── supabase: Supabase migrations and configuration file

`/src`

<src>
├── adapters: A set of interaces to interact with 3rd party libraries such as Telegraf, supabase-js.
 It consists of a set of small functions bulit on top of a specific library.
 Every adapter needs to be for calling a specific method of the library.
|
├── bindings: A set of listeners to bind/process requests emitted by GitHub.
 It also has a function to load a project configuration.
|
├── configs: Constants and default config values used to create a bot configuration
 in case we're missing any needed configuration parameters from both .env and config file.
|
├── handlers: A set of event-based processors.
 Each handler processes a specific request and it may consist of pre, action and post handlers.
 A pre handler would be running in prior to the main action which needs to be shorter not to affect the main handler's process.
 A post handler would be running as soon as the main handler gets completed. 
It has no limitation on its completion time.
 For example, it could be an example of pre-handler to create missing price labels 
 because if we don't have necessary labels created already on the repo, labeling non-exists labels would definitely throw.
|
├── types A set of schema and type definitions.
 Why do we need schema? because we want to validate the unknown input and throw the error before the main execution.
|
├── utils A set of utility functions

Default Config Notes (`ubiquibot-config-default.ts`)

We can't use a jsonc file due to limitations with Netlify. Here is a snippet of some values with notes next to them.
