Local deployment

Instructions to setup the ALM application locally

For testing purposes, or if the existing instances of ALM are not available, the application can be deployed locally in a containerised environment.

Build and run

1. Clone the repo

git clone --recursive https://github.com/poanetwork/tokenbridge.git
cd tokenbridge/alm

2. Prepare a configuration file

Copy the configuration file template

cp .env.example .env

and open it in your favourite text editor:

# Addresses of the AMB contracts.
COMMON_HOME_BRIDGE_ADDRESS=0x...
COMMON_FOREIGN_BRIDGE_ADDRESS=0x...

# URLs to the JSON RPC nodes.
# Infura URLs must be specified together with a project id.
COMMON_HOME_RPC_URL=https://link.to.rpc.node.at.home
COMMON_FOREIGN_RPC_URL=https://link.to.rpc.node.at.foreign

# Short name of the chains ALM will work with. The name will
# be available for users in the top right corner of the app.
ALM_HOME_NETWORK_NAME=Some name 
ALM_FOREIGN_NETWORK_NAME=Another name

# URLs to the block explorers to refer to a transaction if a user
# would like to get more details. The template sequence %s is used
# for the tx hash.
# For example, https://blockscout.com/poa/sokol/tx/%s or
# https://kovan.etherscan.io/tx/%s
ALM_HOME_EXPLORER_TX_TEMPLATE=https://some.url/hash/%s
ALM_FOREIGN_EXPLORER_TX_TEMPLATE=https://another.url/tx/%s

# URLs to the explorers APIs that are used by ALM to discover pending
# or failed transactions
# Examples of API URLs for widely used exploreres:
# - https://blockscout.com/poa/sokol/api
# - https://api-kovan.etherscan.io/api?apikey=YourApiKeyToken
ALM_HOME_EXPLORER_API=https://some.explorer.url/api
ALM_FOREIGN_EXPLORER_API=https://another.explorer.url/api

# Port the application will listen to. This port will also be used
# by the docker-compose tool when the application starts
PORT=8080

3. Build the docker image

docker-compose build

4. Run the application

docker-compose up -d

Use a browser to get into http://localhost:8080 (if another value was configured for the parameter PORT use it instead of 8080).
