Bridge-hubs Parachain

Implementation of BridgeHub, a blockchain to support message passing between Substrate based chains like Polkadot and Kusama networks.

BridgeHub allows users to:

  • Passing arbitrary messages between different Substrate chains (Polkadot <-> Kusama). -- Message passing is

Every BridgeHub is meant to be common good parachain with main responsibilities:

  • sync finality proofs between relay chains
  • sync finality proofs between BridgeHub parachains
  • pass (XCM) messages between different BridgeHub parachains

How to test locally Rococo <-> Wococo

Prepare/Build/Deploy

# Prepare empty directory for testing
mkdir -p ~/local_bridge_testing/bin
mkdir -p ~/local_bridge_testing/logs

# 1. Install zombienet
Go to: https://github.com/paritytech/zombienet/releases
Copy the apropriate binary (zombienet-linux) from the latest release to ~/local_bridge_testing/bin

# 2. Build polkadot binary
git clone https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot.git
cd polkadot
cargo build --release
cp target/release/polkadot ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot

# 3. Build cumulus polkadot-parachain binary
cd <cumulus-git-repo-dir>
git checkout -b bridge-hub-rococo-wococo --track origin/bridge-hub-rococo-wococo
cargo build --release --locked -p polkadot-parachain@0.9.300
cp target/release/polkadot-parachain ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot-parachain
cp target/release/polkadot-parachain ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot-parachain-mint

# 4. Build substrate-relay binary
git clone https://github.com/paritytech/parity-bridges-common.git
cd parity-bridges-common
cargo build --release -p substrate-relay
cp target/release/substrate-relay ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/substrate-relay

# (Optional) 5. Build polkadot-parachain-mint binary with statemine/westmint for moving assets
cd <cumulus-git-repo-dir>
git checkout -b bko-transfer-asset-via-bridge --track origin/bko-transfer-asset-via-bridge
cargo build --release --locked -p polkadot-parachain@0.9.300
cp target/release/polkadot-parachain ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot-parachain-mint

Run chains (Rococo + BridgeHub, Wococo + BridgeHub) with zombienet

# Rococo + BridgeHubRococo + Rockmine (mirroring Kusama)
POLKADOT_BINARY_PATH=~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot \
POLKADOT_PARACHAIN_BINARY_PATH=~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot-parachain \

	~/local_bridge_testing/bin/zombienet-linux --provider native spawn ./zombienet/bridge-hubs/bridge_hub_rococo_local_network.toml
# Wococo + BridgeHubWococo + Wockmint (mirroring Polkadot)

Run relayers (Rococo, Wococo)

Accounts of BridgeHub parachains:

  • Bob is pallet owner of all bridge pallets

Run with script (alternative 1)

cd <cumulus-git-repo-dir>
./scripts/bridges_rococo_wococo.sh run-relay

Run with binary (alternative 2)

Need to wait for parachain activation (start producing blocks), then run:

# 1. Init bridges:

# Rococo -> Wococo
RUST_LOG=runtime=trace,rpc=trace,bridge=trace \
	~/local_bridge_testing/bin/substrate-relay init-bridge rococo-to-bridge-hub-wococo \
	--source-host localhost \
	--source-port 9942 \
	--target-host localhost \
	--target-port 8945 \
	--target-signer //Bob

# Wococo -> Rococo
RUST_LOG=runtime=trace,rpc=trace,bridge=trace \
	~/local_bridge_testing/bin/substrate-relay init-bridge wococo-to-bridge-hub-rococo \
	--source-host localhost \
	--source-port 9945 \
	--target-host localhost \
	--target-port 8943 \
	--target-signer //Bob

# 2. Relay relay-chain headers, parachain headers and messages**
RUST_LOG=runtime=trace,rpc=trace,bridge=trace \
    ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/substrate-relay relay-headers-and-messages bridge-hub-rococo-bridge-hub-wococo \
    --rococo-host localhost \

    --bridge-hub-rococo-transactions-mortality 4 \

Git subtree ./bridges

Add Bridges repo as a local remote and synchronize it with latest master from bridges repo:

git remote add -f bridges git@github.com:paritytech/parity-bridges-common.git
# (ran just only first time, when subtree was initialized)
# git subtree add --prefix=bridges bridges master --squash

# Synchro bridges repo
git fetch bridges --prune
git subtree pull --prefix=bridges bridges master --squash

We use --squash to avoid adding individual commits and rather squashing them all into one.

Now we use master branch, but in future, it could change to some release branch/tag.

Original ./bridges/Cargo.toml was renamed to ./bridges/Cargo.toml_removed_for_bridges_subtree_feature to avoid confusion for Cargo having multiple workspaces.
