Hydro Augur Scaffold

This repository will guide you through setting up your own Hydro-Augur Relayer on the Ethereum blockchain. When you finish the steps outlined in this guide, you will have:

• Setup a fully functioning prediction market on your local server
• Leveraged Hydro Protocol and Augur smart contracts on Ethereum to securely manage a prediction market (PM)
• Traded some predictions on your Hydro PM
• Learned how to customize your PM

It should take less than 10 minutes to get your Prediction Market running.

Quick Start Guide

Prerequisites

The only required software that you must have installed are docker and docker-compose.

If you don't already have them installed, you can follow this link to install them (free).

Initial Setup

1. Clone this repo

   git clone https://github.com/hydroprotocol/hydro-augur-scaffold
   

2. Change working dir

   cd hydro-augur-scaffold
   

3. Build and launch your hydro prediction market

   docker-compose up --build -d
   

   This step may takes a few minutes. When complete, it will start all necessary services.

   It will use ports 3000, 3001, 3002, 6379, 8545 on your computer. Please make sure that these ports are available.

4. Check out your Prediction Market

   Open http://localhost:3000/ on your browser to see your prediction market in action!

Testdrive your Prediction Market

Now that your PM is up on your local server, let's try it out a bit.

1. Connect a wallet

   1. Install the metamask wallet browser extension

      Note - currently, we only support metamask as your wallet. If you have metamask installed, please move to the next section.

      • For Chrome Download.
      • For Firefox Download
      • For Brave, metamask is built-in. You can enable it at about:preferences#extensions.

   2. Switch network

      Metamask's default network is mainnet. For our augur scaffold, we will use localhost to test for now.

      Open the metamask extension and switch the network to localhost:8545

   3. Import an account

      We have already prepared a pre-filled address for you! The private key is 0xb7a0c9d2786fc4dd080ea5d619d36771aeb0c8c26c290afd3451b92ba2b7bc2c, address is 0x31ebd457b999bf99759602f5ece5aa5033cb56b3.

      Import the private key into your metamask then switch to this account.

2. Make some trades

   Now that your wallet is setup, you can make some trades on your local server to test it out. Try making a buy and sell order.

Additional Info

Useful Docker Commands

1. Display the status of all services running

   docker-compose ps
   

   This command displays the status of all services running in docker. It's helpful for troubleshooting and for understanding the combination of components that goes into running your DEX.

2. Stopping your Relayer

    docker-compose stop
   

   This command will stop all of the current services running in docker.

3. Restarting your Relayer

    docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d
   

   The same command that you ran to start it the first time can be used for subsequent restarts. Always run the pull command first, as the docker-compose up command will not run without an image.

4. View logs

   # view logs of the service that defined in docker-compose.yml services
   # e.g. view watcher log
   docker-compose logs --tail=20 -f watcher
   # e.g. view api log
   docker-compose logs --tail=20 -f api
   

   Much like the status, viewing the logs can give you an idea of the specific details involved in each service.

5. Update this repo

   git pull origin master
   

6. Completely clean the old state (data will be deleted)

   docker-compose down -v
   

What comes with this scaffolding?

• Frontend:
  • A Basic Exchange Web UI
