Camino-Messenger-Bot is designed to facilitate communication through various messaging platforms. The application is modularized into distinct components, each serving a specific purpose.
-
Messenger
- The Messenger component declares a decoupled messenger interface with the functionalities that include sending and receiving messages asynchronously.
Currently, the only concrete implementation is the
matrix-messenger, which utilizes the Mautrix Golang SDK for the Matrix client. Note that themautrixdependency requires theolmC library during both build time and runtime. -
Message Processor
- The Message Processor utilizes the Messenger to receive and process messages.
-
gRPC Server
- This component acts as a Message Request gateway, accepting protobuf messages. These requests are then forwarded to the Message Processor.
-
gRPC Client
- The gRPC Client communicates with a middleware or "partner-plugin" via gRPC, exchanging protobuf messages. The middleware handles necessary conversions and interacts with the external system of the partner. It's important to note that the middleware is not part of this application.
This application depends on the camino-messenger-protocol, which is a separate repository. The protocol defines the protobuf messages and services used for communication between the gRPC server and client.
Currently release-10 of Camino Messenger Protocol is used.
To run the camino-bot-messenger as intended you will need a CM Account with a bot added to it and registered services.
If you don't already have a CM Account your company should get listed as a Partner and configure its partner profile via suite. Following this process will result in a CM account and all requirements to run the bot on mainnet Camino. Creating the CM Account this way is necessary for the mainnet Camino.
For development purposes, it is also possible to configure the partner profile on testnet Columbus.
For development purposes, a CM Account can also be created and configured without the company being listed as a Partner - via camino messenger contracts hardhat tool.
To create a CM Account and add the bot to it - you will need two (test) wallets - one for the CM Account, and one for the bot. The CM Account wallet has to be KYC verified. Creating and KYC verifying the test wallets can be done via suite as explained here and here.
Important
Remember to ensure the suite is connected to testnet Columbus if you are doing this for development purposes.
Important
Funds must be available on both wallets before you can create the CM account. At least 100 CAM in the wallet used to create the CM Account and 100 CAM on bot wallet. To request testnet funds, go to our discord and use the command /faucet <columbus-x-chain-address> <amount>. More details about the faucet can be found here
After you have your two wallets ready, clone the contracts repo, position inside the repo, and run:
yarn install
And then
yarn hardhat account --help
yarn hardhat account create --help
yarn hardhat account bot:add --help
yarn hardhat account service:add --help
To see how to use the tool.
- To create the CM Account run:
yarn hardhat account create --private-key <0xstatic-private-key-of-the-cm-account-wallet> --network columbus
The command will output your new CM Account Address in format 0x<...>. Store it and add it to your .yml configuration under cm_account_addess.
To retrieve your wallet static private key, follow the instructions here.
- To add the bot to the CM Account run:
yarn hardhat account bot:add --bot <0xc-chain-address-of-the-bot-wallet> --cm-account <0xCMAccount-address> --private-key <0xstatic-private-key-of-the-cm-account-wallet> --network columbus
Add this bot's wallet static private key to your .yml configuration under bot_key.
- Granting Withdrawer role
In case you want to withdraw funds from the CM Account contract, you have to grant the WITHDRAWER_ROLE to an address, even for the default admin (creator of the CM Account). To do this run:
yarn hardhat account role:grant --role WITHDRAWER_ROLE --cm-account <0xCMAccount-address> --address <0xwithdrawer-address> --private-key <0xstatic-private-key-of-the-default-admin-of-the-cm-account> --network columbus
- To register a service supported by your CM Account run e.g.
yarn hardhat account service:add --cm-account <0xCMAccount-address> --private-key <0xstatic-private-key-of-the-cm-account-wallet> --service-name cmp.services.ping.v1.PingService --fee 1 --network Columbus
To see all the services you can support, run:
yarn hardhat manager services:list --network columbus
- To see a list of services that are supported by a specific CM Account:
yarn hardhat account service:list --cm-account <0xCMAccount-address> --network columbus
- Once your bot is active, offering its services to other CM Acocunts, and doing regular cache in, it is possible to do the withdrawal of the collected fees to an address with WITHDRAWAL_ROLE via
hardhat(and also via suite).
To do it via hardhat run:
yarn hardhat account withdraw --amount <STRING> --cm-account <0xCMAccount-address> --private-key <0xstatic-private-key-of-the-cm-account-wallet> --recipient <STRING>
The repository includes examples demonstrating the setup of gRPC servers and clients under the examples folder. Additionally, Dockerfiles and a docker-compose.yml file are provided to simplify the deployment of a provider, distributor bot, and a partner plugin application that mocks responses.
Note
If docker-compose.yml is used, please check volumes. The configuration filepath should be cmb-config/config.yaml. An example can be copied over from examples/config/ and modified.
Below are instructions for installing the olm library for Linux (Debian and Ubuntu) and macOS:
-
Update Package Lists:
sudo apt update
-
Install Dependencies:
sudo apt install -y libolm-dev
-
Update Homebrew:
brew update
[!TIP] If you don't have Homebrew installed, you can install it by following the instructions on https://brew.sh/.
-
Install libolm:
brew install libolm
Use the provided build script to build the application. This will create a binary in the ./build directory.
./scripts/build.shUse the provided example configuration files for suppliers
(examples/config/camino-messenger-bot-supplier.yaml.example) and distributors
(examples/config/camino-messenger-bot-distributor.yaml.example).
Copy them accordingly and edit fields, mainly the private keys and CM Account address. Most of the default values should be fine for testing.
Important
Keep in mind that the addresses of bot_key in the config file needs to
have funds on C-Chain to pay for the transaction fees. (If you are using MintRequest)
Start the bot using the related config file depending on your need.
Supplier Bot:
./build/bot --config camino-messenger-bot-supplier.yamlDistributor Bot:
./build/bot --config camino-messenger-bot-distributor.yamlTip
For testing and development, you can also start two bots, one supplier and one distributor.
In this case, make sure to use 2 different CM Accounts. Feel free to explore and customize the application based on your specific requirements. If you encounter any issues or have questions, please refer to the documentation or open an issue in the repository.
Run the partner plugin, setting the PORT env as defined in your supplier bot
configuration file's partner_plugin_port field, e.g.:
PORT=50051 go run examples/rpc/partner-plugin/server.goThe application supports tracing by providing an otel (OpenTelemetry) sdk implementation adding traces to all requests and responses.
Traces cross the boundaries of the application by using traceIDs and context propagation.
The tracing configuration can be set in the configuration file. By default, tracing is disabled.
For the moment the application uses a Jaeger exporter to send the traces to a Jaeger instance. A future improvement could include an otel collector as the middle stop for traces and feed to them different tracing systems.
