Weekly Dev Update #24

Changes

No significant changes to report.

THORChain

Refactoring

A large part of the week’s refactoring was on consolidating the Bifrost into one binary to simplify how it accesses key-material for THORChain since it has two main routines:

1. The Observer (which observes external networks and posts witness transactions to THORChain)
2. The Signer (which manages the TSS process, and posts transactions into THORChain to facilitate vault churning)

• [refactor] Docker compose reorg
• [rename] bifrost: statechain ==> thorchain
• [refactor] converge observer/signer config files
• [Refactor] merge observer/signer into bifrost
• [Refactor] Bifrost config
• Resolve “Signer should shift for gas”
• 297-issue remove /thorchain/keygen/:height endpoint

Genesis and Build Management

More work was done to validate and tweak the build process for the binary. Genesis routines were also re-worked. Smoke tests are added into each deploy to ensure build integrity.

• [bug] Genesis fullstack tweaks
• 296-isse move the genesis move creation logic to vault manager
• [testing] re-add complete 35 tx tests to standalone smoke tests
• add script to automatically deploy thornode running on docker on AWS and Virtualbox
• update docker file to speed up build
• Envrionment Build tags

Improvements

More work was done on event logic to address some integration issues with Midgard. The Ragnarok routine was also re-worked to cover some edge cases.

• Simplify staking event trigger
• Resolve “[ADD] emit refund events for those tx Thorchain fail to process”
• Resolve “add query switch to include pending events in API”
• Resolve “Get event by tx hash”
• 290-issue when trigger ragnarok , stop validators from leaving until it shutdown
• Resolve “ragnarok should trigger bonders to get their rewards”
• [Add] Lock thorchain send to ensure one at a time

Midgard API

Some small fixes to address integration problems with the interface.

• fix get pool
• Fix/stakers endpoint
