Sign-up Sequencer does sequencing of data (identities) that are committed in a batch to an Ethereum Smart Contract.
Sequencer has 6 API routes.
/insertIdentity
- Accepts identity commitment hash as input which gets added in queue for processing. Identities go through three tasks.- Insertion: In the initial stage, the identities are placed into the Sequencer's database. The database is polled every few seconds and added to insertion task.
- Processing: The processing of identities, where current batching tree is taken and processed so we end up with pre root (the root of tree before proofs are generated), post root, start index and identity commitments (with their proofs). All of those get sent to a prover for proof generation. The identities transaction is then mined, with aforementioned fields and pending identities are sent to task to be mined on-chain.
- Mining: The transaction ID from processing task gets mined and Sequencer database gets updated accordingly. Now with blockchain and database being in sync, the mined tree gets updated as well.
/inclusionProof
- Takes the identity commitment hash, and checks for any errors that might have occurred in the insert identity steps. Then leaf index is fetched from the database, corresponding to the identity hash provided, and then we check if the identity is indeed in the tree. The inclusion proof is then returned to the API caller./deleteIdentity
- Takes an identity commitment hash, ensures that it exists and hasn't been deleted yet. This identity is then scheduled for deletion./recoverIdentity
- Takes two identity commitment hashes. The first must exist and will be scheduled for deletion and the other will be inserted as a replacement after the first identity has been deleted and a set amount of time (depends on configuration parameters) has passed./verifySemaphoreProof
- This call takes root, signal hash, nullifier hash, external nullifier hash and a proof. The proving key is fetched based on the depth index, and verification key as well. The list of prime fields is created based on request input mentioned before, and then we proceed to verify the proof. Sequencer uses groth16 zk-SNARK implementation. The API call returns the proof as a response./addBatchSize
- Adds a prover with specific batch size to a list of provers./removeBatchSize
- Removes the prover based on batch size./listBatchSizes
- Lists all provers that are added to the Sequencer.
Install pre-requisites on the dev machine
Os | Command |
---|---|
MacOs | brew install protobuf pkg-config |
Ubuntu/Debian | sudo apt-get install -y protobuf-compiler pkg-config |
Install Docker - Docker is used to setup the database for testing
Fetch the postgres docker image before running tests.
docker pull postgres
You'll need to run a local node like geth or ganache. Start up a new chain and take note of the dev addresses. You can follow instructions here.
Worldcoin id contracts are ethereum smart contracts that are used by the sequencer
Clone contracts-deployer and follow the steps in the readme there.
Semaphore-mtb is a service for batch processing of Merkle tree updates.
Clone semaphore-mtb and execute go build .
(you will need a golang compiler)
Go build will create an executable named gnark-mbu. If you went through the contracts-deployer, you will have a generated a keys file that is used by semaphore-mtb. If your deployment contains more than one prover, then you must run this command for each one and configure them to listen on different ports.
./gnark-mbu start --keys-file path/to/contracts-deployer/<DEPLOYMENT_NAME>/.cache/keys/<KEY_NAME> --mode <insertion/deletion>
docker run --rm -ti -p 5432:5432 -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password postgres
TX sitter is a service providing API for signup-sequencer to submit transactions on blockchain.
Clone tx-sitter-monolith and follow build instructions
Now you need to create a config.toml
file for signup-sequencer:
[app]
provers_urls ='[]'
[tree]
[network]
# Address of WorldIDIdentityManager contract on blockchain.
# If you are using anvil the default address should work.
identity_manager_address = "0x48483748eb0446A16cAE79141D0688e3F624Cb73"
[providers]
# Blockchain API URL (anvil or geth)
primary_network_provider = "http://localhost:8545"
[relayer]
kind = "tx_sitter"
# URL of TX-sitter API + API token
tx_sitter_url = "http://localhost:3000/1/api/G5CKNF3BTS2hRl60bpdYMNPqXvXsP-QZd2lrtmgctsnllwU9D3Z4D8gOt04M0QNH"
tx_sitter_address = "0x1d7ffed610cc4cdC097ecDc835Ae5FEE93C9e3Da"
tx_sitter_gas_limit = 2000000
[database]
database = "postgres://postgres:password@localhost:5432/sequencer?sslmode=disable"
[server]
# Port to run signup-sequencer API on
address = "0.0.0.0:8080"
The daemon will try to create temporary files in /data
. If your machine does not have it you could create it:
mkdir signup_sequencer_data
sudo ln -sf `pwd`/signup_sequencer_data /data
And then run the daemon:
cargo run config.toml
Lint, build, test
First ensure you have the docker daemon up and running, then:
cargo fmt && cargo clippy --all-targets && cargo build --all-targets && cargo test --all-targets
We welcome your pull requests! But also consider the following:
- Fork this repo from
main
branch. - If you added code that should be tested, please add tests.
- If you changed the API routes, please update this readme in your PR.
- Ensure that CI tests suite passes (lints as well).
- If you added dependencies, make sure you add exemptions for
cargo vet
