This repository implements generic version of meta transaction.

Meta transaction is proposed by uPort and detailed description can be found here

Below describes concept of meta transaction demonstrated in this repository.

Prerequisite

Install docker for mac

Software versions

name	version
solidity	0.4.17
solidity-compiler	v0.4.19+commit.c4cbbb05

How to start server

$ sh script/start.sh

// required only for the first time
$ sh script/enter.sh
# npm install

Setup account

Create config.json at root folder

{
  "server_account": {
    "privateKey": <PRIVATE KEY>,
    "address": <ADDRESS>
  },
  "client_account": {
    "privateKey": <PRIVATE KEY>,
    "address": <ADDRESS>
  }
}

Compile

$ sh script/compile.sh

Test

$ sh script/enter.sh
# npm run test

Usage

Client

let rawTx = await MetaTransactionClient.createTx(targetAbi, targetFunctionName, args, {
  to: targetAddress,
  value: 0,
  nonce: 0, // nonce must match the one at TxRelay contract
  gas: 2000000,
  gasPrice: 2000000,
  gasLimit: 2000000
});

// result txToServer object should be send to app server
txToServer = await MetaTransactionClient.createRawTxToRelay(
  rawTx,
  clientAccountAddress,
  clientAccountPrivateKey,
  txRelayContractAddress
);

Server

// sign tx with account which has some ether.
let signedTxToRelay = await MetaTransactionServer.createRawTxToRelay(
  JSON.parse(txRelayContractAbi),
  txToServer.sig, // from client
  txToServer.to, // from client
  txToServer.from, // from client
  txToServer.data, // from client
  {
    "gas": 2000000,
    "gasPrice": 2000000,
    "gasLimit": 2000000,
    "value": 0,
    "to": txRelayContractAddress,
    "nonce": 0, // nonce of address which signs tx ad server
    "from": serverAccountAddress
  },
  serverAccountPrivateKey
);

// esnd tx to TxRelay contract
const result = await web3.eth.sendSignedTransaction('0x' + signedTxToRelay);
