B . Oracle

Step 1 : Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/skip-mev/slinky.git
cd slinky

# checkout proper version
git checkout v0.4.3

nano config/core/oracle.json

Check the final code and edit it to look like the following code: (if it's the same, keep it the same)

{
  "market_providers": [
    {
      "name": "marketmap_api",
      "api": {
        "enabled": true,
        "timeout": 20000000000,
        "interval": 10000000000,
        "reconnectTimeout": 2000000000,
        "maxQueries": 1,
        "atomic": true,
        "url": "0.0.0.0:9090",
        "endpoints": null,
        "batchSize": 0,
        "name": "marketmap_api"
      },
      "type": "market_map_provider"
    }
  ],
  "metrics": {
    "prometheusServerAddress": "0.0.0.0:8002",
    "enabled": true
  },
  "host": "0.0.0.0",
  "port": "8080"
}

Create a new tmux, then run the next step

Starting The Sidecar

Compile Slinky:

# You can use one of the following two commands:
make build

# or
go build -o build/slinky ./cmd/slinky

Run sidecar:

./build/slinky --oracle-config-path ./config/core/oracle.json --market-map-endpoint 0.0.0.0:9090

Exit tmux to go to the next step

Create another tmux

Validating Prices:

make run-oracle-client

Exit tmux

Enable Vote Extension Oracle:

open the <.initia/config/app.toml> file, scroll down to the bottom and edit the Oracle section to resemble the following code:

###############################################################################
###                                  Oracle                                 ###
###############################################################################
[oracle]
# Enabled indicates whether the oracle is enabled.
enabled = "true"

# Oracle Address is the URL of the out of process oracle sidecar. This is used to
# connect to the oracle sidecar when the application boots up. Note that the address
# can be modified at any point, but will only take effect after the application is
# restarted. This can be the address of an oracle container running on the same
# machine or a remote machine.
oracle_address = "127.0.0.1:8080"

# Client Timeout is the time that the client is willing to wait for responses from 
# the oracle before timing out.
client_timeout = "500ms"

# MetricsEnabled determines whether oracle metrics are enabled. Specifically
# this enables instrumentation of the oracle client and the interaction between
# the oracle and the app.
metrics_enabled = "false"

Restart and checklogs:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

sudo systemctl restart initiad

sudo journalctl -u initiad -f --no-hostname -o cat

# DONE
