Generic Faucet for Substrate based chains

Development

Setup dependencies and git hooks

yarn install
yarn simple-git-hooks

To launch a hot-reloading dev environment

yarn dev:backend
yarn dev:bot

Server and Bot environment variables

Definition with explanation is in ./env.bot.config.json and ./env.server.config.json

Copy example file to real env and change its values:

$ cp example.env .env

Run the faucet locally for troubleshooting

Use the following commands to run a local instance of the faucet built directly from sources:

  cd docker/
  export SMF_BACKEND_FAUCET_ACCOUNT_MNEMONIC=***
  export SMF_BOT_MATRIX_BOT_USER_ID=***
  export SMF_BOT_MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN=***
  docker-compose -f docker-compose.<network>.yml up

Note: You will need a valid funded account mnemonic and matrix user ID / access token.

End-to-end tests

Please refer to the E2E Readme.

Allowing external access to the faucet

The default mode of operation of the faucet is to handle trusted requests from the matrix bot, and to not allow any direct external access.

With the SMF_BACKEND_EXTERNAL_ACCESS variable (and by exposing the faucet port to the Internet) you can allow the faucet to handle external requests, which are protected by ReCAPTCHA.

Example requests:

curl -X POST \
  localhost:5555/drip/web \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"address": "xxx", "parachain_id": "1002", "recaptcha": "captcha_token"}'

In React:

import ReCAPTCHA from "react-google-recaptcha";

(...)

const [captcha, setCaptcha] = useState<string | null>(null)

(...)

<ReCAPTCHA
  sitekey="xxx"
  onChange={setCaptcha}
/>

(...)

const request = async () => {
  const body = {
    address: "xxx",
    parachain_id: "1002",
    recaptcha: captcha_token
  }

  const fetchResult = await fetch("http://localhost:5555/drip/web", {
    method: "POST", body: JSON.stringify(body), headers: {
      'Accept': 'application/json',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
  })
  const result = await fetchResult.json()
}

Where the captcha_token is a recaptcha token created with a sitekey is matching the recaptcha secret specified in SMF_BACKEND_RECAPTCHA_SECRET.

For testing, you can use a public, testing recaptcha secret which will allow any captcha token to pass.

# Public testing secret, will accept all tokens.
SMF_BACKEND_RECAPTCHA_SECRET="6LeIxAcTAAAAAGG-vFI1TnRWxMZNFuojJ4WifJWe"
