cosmos-proposals-checker

cosmos-proposals-checker is a tool that checks all configured chains for new proposals in voting period, then notifies you if one or more of the configured wallets haven't voted on it.

How can I set it up?

Download the latest release from the releases page. After that, you should unzip it, and you are ready to go:

wget <the link from the releases page>
tar <downloaded file>
./cosmos-proposals-checker --config <path to config>

Alternatively, install golang (>1.18), clone the repo and build it:

git clone https://github.com/QuokkaStake/cosmos-proposals-checker
cd cosmos-proposals-checker
# This will generate a `cosmos-proposals-checker` binary file in the repository folder
make build
# This will generate a `cosmos-proposals-checker` binary file in $GOPATH/bin

To run it detached, first we have to copy the file to the system apps folder:

sudo cp ./cosmos-proposals-checker /usr/bin

Then we need to create a systemd service for our app:

sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/cosmos-proposals-checker.service

You can use this template (change the user to whatever user you want this to be executed from. It's advised to create a separate user for that instead of running it from root):

[Unit]
Description=Cosmos Proposals Checker
After=network-online.target

[Service]
User=<username>
TimeoutStartSec=0
CPUWeight=95
IOWeight=95
ExecStart=cosmos-proposals-checker --config <config path>
Restart=always
RestartSec=2
LimitNOFILE=800000
KillSignal=SIGTERM

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Then we'll add this service to autostart and run it:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload # reload config to reflect changed
sudo systemctl enable cosmos-proposals-checker # put service to autostart
sudo systemctl start cosmos-proposals-checker # start the service
sudo systemctl status cosmos-proposals-checker # validate it's running

If you need to, you can also see the logs of the process:

sudo journalctl -u cosmos-proposals-checker -f --output cat

How does it work?

It queries LCD nodes for the proposals list in voting period, then for each wallet it queries its vote. If you haven't voted, it spawns an alert and sends it to configured notifiers.

How can I configure it?

All configuration is done via .toml config file, which is mandatory. Run the app with --config <path/to/config.toml> to specify config. Check out config.example.toml to see the params that can be set.

Notifiers

Currently, this program supports the following notifications channels:

Go to @BotFather in Telegram and create a bot. After that, there are two options:

you want to send messages to a user. This user should write a message to @getmyid_bot, then copy the Your user ID number. Also keep in mind that the bot won't be able to send messages unless you contact it first, so write a message to a bot before proceeding.
you want to send messages to a channel. Write something to a channel, then forward it to @getmyid_bot and copy the Forwarded from chat number. Then add the bot as an admin.

To have fancy commands auto-suggestion, go to @BotFather again, select your bot -> Edit bot -> Edit description and paste the following:

proposals - List proposals and wallets' votes on them
proposals_mute - Mutes a proposal
proposals_mutes - List active proposal mutes
help - Displays help

Then add a Telegram config to your config file (see config.example.toml for reference).

PagerDuty

Go to your PagerDuty page, then go to Services. Create a service if you haven't created one already. Select this service, then go to "Integrations" tab, add an integration there. Copy the integration key and add it to the pagerduty part in config (see config.example.toml for reference). Additionally, override PagerDuty URL in config if you are using EU version.

Which networks this is guaranteed to work?

In theory, it should work on a Cosmos-based blockchains that expose a REST server.
