Standalone simulator for debugging bundles

Bundle Simulator

Standalone repo for simulating specific bundles that need debugging.

Requirements

Have installed the following:

• Nix (or Brownie directly)
• ganache-cli (npm install ganache-cli)

Use Brownie

Just issue the following command:

nix-shell

After a couple of minutes you should be inside of nix-shell with brownie in our PATH. We can quickly double check with:

which brownie

Run simulations

Use scripts/backrun_test1.py as a template to construct bundle specifics. Note also the target block number for the bundle.

Create a fork

By default brownie includes a list of providers that can be checked with:

brownie networks list

Create a fork at a specific block for the bundle. Note that the fork will need to occur at target block number - 1.

brownie networks add development backrun1 cmd="ganache-cli" host=http://127.0.0.1 fork="$ETH_RPC_URL@14430476" accounts=10 mnemonic=brownie port=8545 timeout=100

Run script

brownie run backrun_test1.py --network backrun1

Result:

Running 'scripts/backrun_test1.py::main'...
