Rollup

Instead of calling DAO.initiateValidationPool(), a contract can call Rollup.addItem().

We demonstrate this by extending our base Work contract as RollableWork.

Our work contract normally triggeres a validation pool when the customer submits work approval. Instead, the fee and worker availability stakes are transferred to the Rollup contract.

The Rollup contract itself uses the Availability contract to assign a batch worker. This worker is responsible for making sure off-chain pools are conducted.

When ready, the worker submits the current batch on-chain by calling DAO.addPost() to create a batch post and then calling Rollup.submitBatch(), which initiates a validation pool targeting the batch post.

Local development setup

Clone this repository to a directory on your machine

git clone https://gitea.dgov.io/DGF/dgf-prototype

Nginx

  1. Install nginx

     brew install nginx
    
  2. Install mkcert

     brew install mkcert
    
  3. Install root CA

     mkcert -install
    
  4. Create a certificate

     mkcert dgfprototype.dev
    
  5. Create certificates directory

     sudo mkdir /etc/nginx/certs
    
  6. Move the certificate to the certificates directory

     sudo mv dgfprototype.*.pem /etc/nginx/certs/
    
  7. Add the following to the http section of /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

     map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
         default upgrade;
         '' close;
     }
    
  8. Add the following to a new file /etc/nginx/sites-available/dgfprototype_dev

     server {
             listen 443 ssl;
    
             server_name dgfprototype.dev;
             ssl_certificate     /etc/nginx/certs/dgfprototype.dev.pem;
             ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/certs/dgfprototype.dev-key.pem;
    
             location /api/ {
                     proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3003/;
             }
    
             location / {
                     proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3002/;
                     proxy_http_version 1.1;
                     proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
                     proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
