zkBOB faucet service

This service is monitoring withdrawals from zkBOB pool and reward BOB tokens recipients with small amount of gas token.

Run by docker CLI

1. Prepare .env file with the following (at least) variables definitons:

   FAUCET_PRIVKEY=cafe...cafe
   JSON_DB_DIR=/db
   INITIAL_START_BLOCK=123

   See below with the variables explanation.

2. Create the directory where the faucet service will store its data.

   mkdir ./db

3. Run the service

   docker run -ti --rm -v $(pwd)/db:/db --env-file .env ghcr.io/zkbob/zkbob-faucet:latest 

   Note: the source mount point after the key -v is the directory created on the step 2. The destination mount point is the directory specified in the variable JSON_DB_DIR.

Run by docker-compose

1. Create the directory where the faucet service will store its data.

   mkdir ./db

2. Initialize the docker-compose.yml file based on docker-compose.yml.example. Set proper values for the following variables (at least) there: FAUCET_PRIVKEY, JSON_DB_DIR and INITIAL_START_BLOCK.

   Make sure that the source mount point in the volumes section is the directory created on the step 1.

   See below with the variables explanation.

3. Run the service

   docker-compose up -d

Faucet configuration

The following environment variables may be used to configure the faucet behavior:

1. ZKBOB_RPC - JSON RPC endpoint the faucet uses to monitor OB events and get data. Default: https://polygon-rpc.com.
2. HISTORY_BLOCK_RANGE - depends on the RPC endpoints - how deep in the block history transactions logs can be requested. Default: 10000.
3. BOB_TOKEN - an address of the BOB token contract. Default: 0xB0B195aEFA3650A6908f15CdaC7D92F8a5791B0B.
4. POOL_CONTRACT - an address of the zkBOB pool contract. Default: 0xB0B195aEFA3650A6908f15CdaC7D92F8a5791B0B.
5. WITHDRAWAL_THRESHOLD - min amount of tokens which should be withdrawn to apply for reward. Default: 10.
6. FAUCET_PRIVKEY - a private key of an account holding xdai to reward. No default value!.
7. GAS_PRICE - the gas price (in gwei) the faucet uses for reward transactions (pre-EIP1559 transactions). -1 means to use EIP1559 transactions. Default: -1.
8. HISTORICAL_BASE_FEE_DEPTH - number of recent blocks to estimate the base fee as per gas (EIP1559 related). Default: 20.
9. BASE_FEE_RATIO - a coefficient to adjust the base fee per gas acquired from the historical data (EIP1559 related). Default: 1.3.
10. FEE_LIMIT - the higher bound of max fee per gas (in gwei) which is used in order to avoid expensive transactions (EIP1559 related). Default: 150.
11. GAS_LIMIT - the gas limit the faucet uses for reward transactions. Default: 30000.
12. REWARD - amount of xdai used as reward. Default: 0.1.
13. POLLING_INTERVAL - amount of time (in seconds) between two subsequent cycles to discover OB transfers and send rewards. Default: 60.
14. INITIAL_START_BLOCK - a block the first faucet's attempt to discover OB transfers starts from. No default value!.
15. FINALIZATION_INTERVAL - a number of blocks starting from the chain head to consider the chain as finalized. Default: 128.
16. JSON_DB_DIR - a directory where the faucet service keeps its data. If not configured, the latest block - HISTORY_BLOCK_RANGE is taken.
17. JSON_START_BLOCK - a name of JSON file where the last observed block is stored. Default: faucet_start_block.json.
18. JSON_CONTRACTS - a name of JSON file where addresses of recipient-contracts are stored. Default: xdai-contracts.json.
19. TEST_TO_SEND - make a transaction to itself just after running the service. Default: false.
