🗞️ CosmWasm rollup ​

CosmWasm is a smart contracting platform built for the Cosmos ecosystem by making use of WebAssembly (Wasm) to build smart contracts for Cosmos-SDK. In this tutorial, we will be exploring how to integrate CosmWasm with Celestia's data availability layer using Rollkit.

You can learn more about CosmWasm here.

The smart contract we will use for this tutorial is one provided by the CosmWasm team for Nameservice purchasing.

You can check out the contract here.

How to write the Rust smart contract for Nameservice is outside the scope of this tutorial. In the future we will add more tutorials for writing CosmWasm smart contracts for Celestia.

💻 CosmWasm dependency installations ​

🛠️ Environment setup ​

For this tutorial, we will be using curl and jq as helpful tools. You can follow the guide on installing them here.

🏃 Golang dependency ​

The Golang version used for this tutorial is v1.19+

You can install Golang by following our tutorial here.

🦀 Rust installation ​

🔨 Rustup ​

First, before installing Rust, you would need to install rustup.

On Mac and Linux systems, here are the commands for installing it:

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Rust is installed now. Great!

To get started you may need to restart your current shell.
This would reload your PATH environment variable to include
Cargo's bin directory ($HOME/.cargo/bin).

To configure your current shell, run: 
source "$HOME/.cargo/env" 

After installation, follow the commands here to setup Rust.

rustup default stable
cargo version

rustup target list --installed
rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown

Your output should look similar to below:

info: using existing install for 'stable-aarch64-apple-darwin'
info: default toolchain set to 'stable-aarch64-apple-darwin'

  stable-aarch64-apple-darwin unchanged - rustc 1.74.0 (79e9716c9 2023-11-13)

cargo 1.74.0 (ecb9851af 2023-10-18)
aarch64-apple-darwin
wasm32-unknown-unknown
info: downloading component 'rust-std' for 'wasm32-unknown-unknown'
info: installing component 'rust-std' for 'wasm32-unknown-unknown'

🐳 Docker installation ​

We will be using Docker later in this tutorial for compiling a smart contract to use a small footprint. We recommend installing Docker on your machine.

Examples on how to install it on Linux are found here. Find the right instructions specific for your OS here.

💻 Wasmd installation ​

Here, we are going to pull down the wasmd repository and replace CometBFT with Rollkit. Rollkit is a drop-in replacement for CometBFT that allows Cosmos-SDK applications to connect to Celestia's data availability network.

git clone https://github.com/CosmWasm/wasmd.git
cd wasmd
git checkout tags/v0.50.0
go mod edit -replace github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk=github.com/rollkit/cosmos-sdk@v0.50.6-rollkit-v0.13.3-no-fraud-proofs
go mod tidy -compat=1.17
go mod download

Now, comment out lines 902-904 in app/app.go:

if err != nil {
  panic(err)
}

This is a temporary fix until CosmWasm/wasmd#1785 is resolved.

And build the binary:

make install

✨ Celestia node ​

You will need a light node running with test tokens on Mocha testnet in order to complete this tutorial. Complete the tutorial and start up your node.

Be sure you have initialized your node before trying to start it. Your start command should look similar to:

celestia light start --core.ip rpc-mocha.pops.one --p2p.network mocha

🌌 Setting up your environment for CosmWasm on Celestia ​

Now the wasmd binary is built, we need to setup a local network that communicates between wasmd and Rollkit.

🗞️ Initializing CosmWasm rollup with a bash script ​

We have a handy init.sh found in this repo.

We can copy it over to our directory with the following commands:

# From inside the `wasmd` directory
wget https://rollkit.dev/cosmwasm/init.sh

This copies over our init.sh script to initialize our CosmWasm rollup.

You can view the contents of the script to see how we initialize the CosmWasm Rollup.

You can initialize the script with the following command:

bash init.sh

With that, we have kickstarted our wasmd network!

View your rollup by finding your namespace or account Celenium.

View the example rollup's namespace on Celenium.

💠 Optional: see what's inside the script ​

You can skip this section, but it is important to know how Rollkit is initializing the cosmwasm rollup.

View the script.

📒 Contract deployment on CosmWasm with Rollkit ​

🤖 Compile the smart contract ​

In a new terminal instance, we will run the following commands to pull down the Nameservice smart contract and compile it:

git clone https://github.com/InterWasm/cw-contracts
cd cw-contracts
cd contracts/nameservice
cargo wasm

The compiled contract is outputted to: target/wasm32-unknown-unknown/release/cw_nameservice.wasm.

🧪 Unit tests ​

If we want to run tests, we can do so with the following command in the ~/cw-contracts/contracts/nameservice directory:

cargo unit-test

🏎️ Optimized smart contract ​

Because we are deploying the compiled smart contract to wasmd, we want it to be as small as possible.

The CosmWasm team provides a tool called rust-optimizer, which requires Docker in order to compile.

Run the following command in the ~/cw-contracts/contracts/nameservice directory:

sudo docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/code \
  --mount type=volume,source="$(basename "$(pwd)")_cache",target=/code/target \
  --mount type=volume,source=registry_cache,target=/usr/local/cargo/registry \
  cosmwasm/rust-optimizer:0.12.6

sudo docker run --platform linux/arm64 --rm -v "$(pwd)":/code \
  --mount type=volume,source="$(basename "$(pwd)")_cache",target=/code/target \
  --mount type=volume,source=registry_cache,target=/usr/local/cargo/registry \
  cosmwasm/rust-optimizer-arm64:0.12.8

This will place the optimized Wasm bytecode at artifacts/cw_nameservice.wasm.

🚀 Contract deployment ​

Let's now deploy our smart contract!

In order to deploy a contract, you can use the command line as described below. For a better experience and to use Rust code instead of the command line to deploy/script and test your contracts, you can use cw-orchestrator.

Run the following in the ~/cw-contracts/contracts/nameservice directory:

TX_HASH=$(wasmd tx wasm store artifacts/cw_nameservice.wasm --from celeswasm-key --keyring-backend test --chain-id celeswasm --gas-prices 0.025uwasm --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.3 --node http://127.0.0.1:36657 --output json -y | jq -r '.txhash') && echo $TX_HASH

TX_HASH=$(wasmd tx wasm store artifacts/cw_nameservice-aarch64.wasm --from celeswasm-key --keyring-backend test --chain-id celeswasm --gas-prices 0.025uwasm --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.3 --node http://127.0.0.1:36657 --output json -y | jq -r '.txhash') && echo $TX_HASH

This will get you the transaction hash for the smart contract deployment. Given we are using Rollkit, there will be a delay on the transaction being included due to Rollkit waiting on Celestia's data availability layer to confirm the block has been included before submitting a new block.

🌟 Contract interaction on CosmWasm with Celestia ​

In the previous steps, we have stored out contract's tx hash in an environment variable for later use.

The following guide will show you how to deploy and interact with a contract using CLI. For scripting using Rust, you can use cw-orchestrator.

Because of the longer time periods of submitting transactions via Rollkit due to waiting on Celestia's data availability layer to confirm block inclusion, we will need to query our tx hash directly to get information about it.

🔎 Contract querying ​

Let's start by querying our transaction hash for its code ID:

CODE_ID=$(wasmd query tx --type=hash $TX_HASH --node http://127.0.0.1:36657 --output json | jq -r '.events[-1].attributes[1].value')
echo $CODE_ID

This will give us back the Code ID of the deployed contract.

In our case, since it's the first contract deployed on our local network, the value is 1.

Now, we can take a look at the contracts instantiated by this Code ID:

wasmd query wasm list-contract-by-code $CODE_ID --node http://127.0.0.1:36657 --output json

We get the following output:

{"contracts":[],"pagination":{"next_key":null,"total":"0"}}

📃 Contract instantiation ​

We start instantiating the contract by writing up the following INIT message for nameservice contract. Here, we are specifying that purchase_price of a name is 100uwasm and transfer_price is 999uwasm.

INIT='{"purchase_price":{"amount":"100","denom":"uwasm"},"transfer_price":{"amount":"999","denom":"uwasm"}}'
wasmd tx wasm instantiate $CODE_ID "$INIT" --from celeswasm-key --keyring-backend test --label "name service" --chain-id celeswasm --gas-prices 0.025uwasm --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.3 -y --no-admin --node http://127.0.0.1:36657

📄 Contract interaction ​

Now that we instantiated it, we can interact further with the contract:

wasmd query wasm list-contract-by-code $CODE_ID --output json --node http://127.0.0.1:36657
CONTRACT=$(wasmd query wasm list-contract-by-code $CODE_ID --output json --node http://127.0.0.1:36657 | jq -r '.contracts[-1]')
echo $CONTRACT

wasmd query wasm contract --node http://127.0.0.1:36657 $CONTRACT
wasmd query bank balances --node http://127.0.0.1:36657 $CONTRACT

This allows us to see the contract address, contract details, and bank balances.

Your output will look similar to below:

{"contracts":["wasm14hj2tavq8fpesdwxxcu44rty3hh90vhujrvcmstl4zr3txmfvw9s0phg4d"],"pagination":{"next_key":null,"total":"0"}}
wasm14hj2tavq8fpesdwxxcu44rty3hh90vhujrvcmstl4zr3txmfvw9s0phg4d
address: wasm14hj2tavq8fpesdwxxcu44rty3hh90vhujrvcmstl4zr3txmfvw9s0phg4d
contract_info:
  admin: ""
  code_id: "1"
  created: null
  creator: wasm1y9ceqvnsnm9xtcdmhrjvv4rslgwfzmrzky2c5z
  extension: null
  ibc_port_id: ""
  label: name service
balances: []
pagination:
  next_key: null
  total: "0"

Now, let's register a name to the contract for our wallet address:

REGISTER='{"register":{"name":"fred"}}'
wasmd tx wasm execute $CONTRACT "$REGISTER" --amount 100uwasm --from celeswasm-key --chain-id celeswasm --gas-prices 0.025uwasm --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.3 --node http://127.0.0.1:36657 --keyring-backend test -y

Your output will look similar to below:

DEIP --keyring-backend test -y
gas estimate: 167533
code: 0
codespace: ""
data: ""
events: []
gas_used: "0"
gas_wanted: "0"
height: "0"
info: ""
logs: []
raw_log: '[]'
timestamp: ""
tx: null
txhash: C147257485B72E7FFA5FDB943C94CE951A37817554339586FFD645AD2AA397C3

If you try to register the same name again, you'll see an expected error:

Error: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = rpc error: code = Unknown desc = failed to execute message; message index: 0: Name has been taken (name fred): execute wasm contract failed [CosmWasm/wasmd/x/wasm/keeper/keeper.go:364] With gas wanted: '0' and gas used: '123809' : unknown request

Next, query the owner of the name record:

NAME_QUERY='{"resolve_record": {"name": "fred"}}'
wasmd query wasm contract-state smart $CONTRACT "$NAME_QUERY" --node http://127.0.0.1:36657 --output json

You'll see the owner's address in a JSON response:

{"data":{"address":"wasm1y9ceqvnsnm9xtcdmhrjvv4rslgwfzmrzky2c5z"}}

With that, we have instantiated and interacted with the CosmWasm nameservice smart contract using Celestia!
