RGB Faucet

Requirements

Configuration

A default configuration is hard-coded in the settings module.

Configuration variables can then be overridden via a configuration file in either of two locations. The first option is a config.py file inside the app instance directory. The second option is a location provided via the environment variable FAUCET_SETTINGS. The two options can be combined, the instance configuration will override the default one and the file pointed to by the environment variable will take precedence, overriding both.

For the service to work it is necessary to configure at least the following variables:

The ASSETS variable is a dictionary with group names (strings) as keys. Each group is a dictionary with the following fields:

Note: request window open/close don't include a UTC offset, so they should represent UTC time.

Standard distribution mode collects requests as pending and periodically serves them in batches.

Random distribution collects requests inside a request window (requests are otherwise not allowed) as waiting and, once the request window closes, selects a number of them (equal to the available assets) at random and sets them as pending (in order to be served) while the remaining ones are set as unmet (and will never be served).

An example ASSETS declaration:

ASSETS = {
    'group_1': {
        'label': 'asset group one',
        'distribution': {
            'mode': 1,
        },
        'assets': [
            {
                'asset_id': 'rgb1aaa...',
                'amount': 1,
            }, {
                'asset_id': 'rgb1bbb...',
                'amount': 7,
            },
        ]
    },
    'group_2': {
        'label': 'asset group two',
        'distribution': {
            'mode': 2,
            'random_params': {
                'request_window_open': '2023-10-16T00:00:00+00:00',
                'request_window_close': '2023-10-16T23:59:59+00:00',
            }
        }
        'assets': [
            {
                'asset_id': 'rgb1ccc...',
                'amount': 42,
            }, {
                'asset_id': 'rgb1ddd...',
                'amount': 4,
            },
        ]
    },
}

See the Config class in the faucet_rgb/settings.py file for details on configuration variables.

Asset migration

Wallets that received assets based on RGB v0.9 will lose them upon upgrading to RGB v0.10. Asset migration is a feature that allows such wallets to request an asset from the same asset group and receive the new version of the previous asset, re-issued with v0.10.

By default, when a request for assets from a specific group is received, if there is no previous request from the same wallet and group, a random asset from the selected group is sent, otherwise no asset is sent and an error is returned. This logic is still applied for asset groups that are not part of the migration configuration.

Configuring ASSET_MIGRATION_MAP, asset groups that are included in the configuration are no more part of the default logic. Instead, when a request for assets from one such group is received, it will be checked against the migration map. If the wallet ID matches a previous request for a v0.9 asset being migrated, the new asset is sent, just once. Further requests by the same wallet from the same group are denied.

Requesting from non-migration groups works as before, sending a random asset from the selected group. Requesting with no group specified works as before, sending a random asset from a random non-migration group.

For example, supposing the ASSET declaration above was done for RGB v0.9 assets, after upgrading to v0.10, re-issuing the assets and including a new group group_3 (which would operate with the default logic), it would become something like:

ASSETS = {
    'group_1': {
        'label': 'asset group one',
        'assets': [{
            'asset_id': 'Nixon...1oA',
            'amount': 1,
        }, {
            'asset_id': 'Visible...kEh',
            'amount': 7,
        }]
    },
    'group_2': {
        'label': 'asset group two',
        'assets': [{
            'asset_id': 'Express...uwg',
            'amount': 42,
        }, {
            'asset_id': 'Legacy...QBX',
            'amount': 4,
        }]
    },
    'group_3': {
        'label': 'asset group three',
        'assets': [{
            'asset_id': 'Nato...Vnx',
            'amount': 3,
        }, {
            'asset_id': 'Nadia...mXL',
            'amount': 11,
        }]
    },
}

and the following migration map would allow migrating the old assets in group_1 and group_2:

ASSET_MIGRATION_MAP = {
    'Nixon...1oA': 'rgb1aaa...',
    'Visible...kEh': 'rgb1bbb...',
    'Express...uwg': 'rgb1ccc...',
    'Legacy...QBX': 'rgb1ddd...',
}

With this configuration, an example request for an asset from group_1 from a wallet that was previously sent asset rgb1aaa would trigger the sending of asset Nixon...1oA

Note: when declaring ASSET_MIGRATION_MAP, all assets in a group need to be defined, partial migration for a group is not supported.

Authentication

Endpoints require authentication via an API key, to be sent in the X-Api-Key header.

There are two configurable API keys for authenticated requests:

APIs will return an {"error":"unauthorized"} if the provided API key is wrong.

Endpoints

The available endpoints are:

Notes:

Development

To install the dependencies excluding the production group:

poetry install --without production

To run the app in development mode:

poetry run flask --app faucet_rgb run --no-reload

Notes:

To test the development server (<wallet_id> needs to be a valid xpub):

curl -i -H 'x-api-key: defaultapikey' localhost:5000/receive/config/<wallet_id>

To format and lint code use:

poetry run black faucet_rgb/ tests/
poetry run flake8 faucet_rgb/ tests/
poetry run pylint faucet_rgb/ tests/
poetry run vulture faucet_rgb/ tests/

Database migration

Migrations are handles via flask-migrate.

To modify the DB structure:

Production

To install the dependencies excluding the dev group:

poetry install --sync --without dev

Example running the app in production mode:

export FAUCET_SETTINGS=</path/to/config.py>
poetry run waitress-serve --host=127.0.0.1 --call 'faucet_rgb:create_app'

To test the production server locally (<wallet_id> needs to be a valid xpub):

curl -i -H 'x-api-key: defaultapikey' localhost:5000/receive/config/<wallet_id>

Docker

A Dockerfile is available to build a docker image that runs the faucet. The docker-compose.yml file allows to run a faucet along with a complete regtest environment.

The docker compose file uses the service_data directory for service data and faucet_data as the data directory for the faucet. It also expects the file config.py (faucet configuration file) to exist. The faucet_data dir needs to be owned by user and group 1000. All paths are relative to the project root. Note that if the faucet is started via docker compose whileconfig.py` doesn't exist, docker will create a directory with the same name instead, which will need to be replaced with the correct file for the faucet to work.

Since the faucet needs to be configured before it can run (see the [Initial setup example] section below), the docker_regtest_setup.sh script is available to automate such initial setup in docker for the simple case of a regtest faucet distributing a single NIA asset.

Initial setup example

Choose a directory to hold the faucet data (e.g. /srv/faucet), create the config.py file inside it, then export the FAUCET_SETTINGS environment variable set to its path (e.g. export FAUCET_SETTINGS=/srv/faucet/config.py).

Configure the DATA_DIR and NETWORK parameters, then create a new wallet:

poetry run wallet-helper --init

Configure the printed mnemonic and xpub using the related (uppercase) variables, then generate an address and send some bitcoins (e.g. 10k sats), to be used for creating UTXOs to hold RGB allocations:

poetry run wallet-helper --address

Once mnemonic and XPub have been configured, the wallet-helper script can also provide info on the wallet status, which might be useful during the initial setup:

poetry run wallet-helper --unspents
poetry run wallet-helper --assets

Issue at least one asset. If no allocation slots are available, some will be created automatically. As an example:

Note: issuance in RGB may require the wallet to create new UTXOs, It means it must somehow deal with the blockchain. The default configuration is for testnet. Thus to run the following command for other networks requires you to specify ELECTRUM_URL in config.py.

poetry run issue-asset NIA "fungible token" 0 1000 1000 --ticker "FFA"
poetry run issue-asset CFA "CTB" 0 10 10 --description "a collectible" --file_path ./README.md

Finally, complete the configuration by defining the faucet's NAME and the ASSETS dictionary with the issued assets.

Testing/developing on regtest

Setup

The docker directory contains a docker compose to run local copies of the services required by the faucet to operate, configured for the regtest network.

The services.sh script is also included to start them:

./docker/services.sh start

The following services will be run in the background:

To configure the faucet to use these services, set the ELECTRUM_URL and TRANSPORT_ENDPOINTS variables:

ELECTRUM_URL="tcp://localhost:50001"
TRANSPORT_ENDPOINTS=["rpc:http://localhost:3000/json-rpc"]

Regtest wallets can also be funded using services.sh script:

./docker/services.sh fund <address> 1

Setup a faucet as in the Initial setup example section.

Using a different shell (as FAUCET_SETTINGS will need to be exported to a different path), data directory and configuration file, setup a separate instance as described in the Initial setup example section, up to the wallet funding part (stop before issuing assets). This separate instance will be used as an RGB-enabled wallet to request assets from the faucet.

To tear down the services, run:

./docker/services.sh stop

Example asset request

Generate a blinded UTXO with the request wallet:

poetry run wallet-helper --blind

Call the faucet's receive/asset API using the request wallet xpub and the generated blinded UTXO:

curl -i -H 'x-api-key: defaultapikey' localhost:5000/receive/asset/<xpub>/<blinded_utxo>

Integration test

Automated integration testing is supported via pytest.

To execute tests, run:

poetry run pytest

To execute a single test module run:

poetry run pytest <path/to/testfile.py>

To execute a single test run:

poetry run pytest <path/to/testfile.py>::<test_name>

To enable code coverage (HTML report) run:

poetry run pytest --cov=faucet_rgb --cov-report=html
