# Chopsticks



chopsticks logo

Create parallel reality of your Substrate network.

## Quick Start

Fork Acala mainnet: `npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest --endpoint=wss://acala-rpc-2.aca-api.network/ws`

It is recommended to use config file. You can check [configs](configs/) for examples.

Run node using config file

```bash
# npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest --config= url | path | config_file_name
# i.e: using configs/acala.yml

npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest -c acala
```

## Wiki

Documentation and tutorials are available at [wiki](https://github.com/AcalaNetwork/chopsticks/wiki).

## EVM+ tracing

Documentation for EVM+ tracing is available at [EVM+ tracing](packages/chopsticks/src/plugins/trace-transaction/README.md).

## Web testing

Run Chopsticks in browser? Now you can turn a mainnet into a devnet and play with it directly in your browser!

An example is available at [acalanetwork.github.io/chopsticks](https://acalanetwork.github.io/chopsticks/), and the corresponding code can be found in [web-test](packages/web-test).

## Environment Variables

For chopsticks CLI, you can find the full list of available environment variables [here](https://acalanetwork.github.io/chopsticks/docs/core/README.html#environment).

## Install

Make sure you have setup Rust environment (>= 1.64).

- Clone repository with submodules ([smoldot](https://github.com/paritytech/smoldot))
- `git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/AcalaNetwork/chopsticks.git && cd chopsticks`
- Install deps
- `yarn`
- Build wasm. Please do not use IDE's built-in tools to build wasm.
- `yarn build-wasm`

## Run

- Replay latest block
- `npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest run-block --endpoint=wss://acala-rpc-2.aca-api.network/ws`
- This will replay the last block and print out the changed storages
- Use option `-b|--block` to replay certain block hash
- Use option `--output-path=` to print out JSON file
- Use option `--html` to generate storage diff preview (add `--open` to automatically open file)

## Dry-run

- Dry run help:
```
npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest dry-run --help
```

- Dry run extrinsic, same as `run-block`, example:
```
npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest dry-run --config=configs/mandala.yml --html --open --extrinsic=0x39028400d43593c715fdd31c61141abd04a99fd6822c8558854ccde39a5684e7a56da27d01183abac17ff331f8b65dbeddd27f014dedd892020cfdc6c40b574f6930f8cf391bde95997ae2edc5b1192a4036ea97804956c4b5497175c8d68b630301685889450200000a00008eaf04151687736326c9fea17e25fc5287613693c912909cb226aa4794f26a480284d717
```

- Dry run call, make sure `mock-signature-host: true` to fake caller's signature:
```
npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest dry-run --config=configs/mandala.yml --html --open --extrinsic=0xff00000080969800 --address=5GrwvaEF5zXb26Fz9rcQpDWS57CtERHpNehXCPcNoHGKutQY --at=
```

- Dry run a preimage:
```
npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest dry-run --endpoint=wss://polkadot-rpc.dwellir.com --preimage= --open
```

- Dry run a preimage and execute an extrinsic after that:
```
npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest dry-run --endpoint=wss://polkadot-rpc.dwellir.com --preimage= --extrinsic= --open
```

- Dry run a preimage and execute a call after that, make sure `mock-signature-host: true` to fake caller's signature:
```
npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest dry-run --config=configs/mandala.yml --preimage= --extrinsic= --address= --open
```

- Run a test node
- `npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest --endpoint=wss://acala-rpc-2.aca-api.network/ws`
- You have a test node running at `ws://localhost:8000`
- You can use [Polkadot.js Apps](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/) to connect to this node
- Submit any transaction to produce a new block in the in parallel reality
- (Optional) Pre-define/override storage using option `-s|--import-storage=storage.[json/yaml]`. See example storage below.

```json5
{
"Sudo": {
"Key": "5GrwvaEF5zXb26Fz9rcQpDWS57CtERHpNehXCPcNoHGKutQY"
},
"TechnicalCommittee": {

},
"Tokens": {
"Accounts": [
[
["5GrwvaEF5zXb26Fz9rcQpDWS57CtERHpNehXCPcNoHGKutQY", { "token": "KAR" }],
{
"free": 1000000000000000,
}
]
]
},
"Whitelist": {
"WhitelistedCall": [
[
["0x3146d2141cdb95de80488d6cecbb5d7577dd59069efc366cb1be7fe64f02e62c"],
"0x" // please use 0x for null values
],
]
}
}
```

- Run Kusama fork
- Edit configs/kusama.yml if needed. (e.g. update the block number)
- `npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest --config=configs/kusama.yml`

- Setup XCM multichain
**_NOTE:_** You can also connect multiple parachains without a relaychain

```bash
npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest xcm -r kusama -p karura -p statemine
```

## Proxy

Chopsticks respect `http_proxy` and `https_proxy` environment variables.
Export `ROARR_LOG=true` environment variable to enable log printing to stdout.
To learn more, see https://www.npmjs.com/package/global-agent?activeTab=readme

## Plugins

Chopsticks is designed to be extensible. You can write your own plugin to extend Chopsticks' functionality.

There are 2 types of plugins: `cli` and `rpc`. `cli` plugins are used to extend Chopsticks' CLI, while `rpc` plugins are used to extend Chopsticks' RPC.

To create a new plugin, you could check out the [run-block plugin](packages/chopsticks/src/plugins/run-block/) as an example.

## RPC Methods

Chopsticks allows you to load your extended rpc methods by adding the cli argument `--unsafe-rpc-methods=`or `-ur=`.

### **WARNING:**

It loads an **unverified** scripts, making it **unsafe**. Ensure you load a **trusted** script.

**example**:

`npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest --unsafe-rpc-methods=rpc-methods-scripts.js`

**scripts example of rpc-methods-scripts:**

```
return {
async testdev_testRpcMethod1(context, params) {
console.log('testdev_testRpcMethod 1', params)
return { methods: 1, params }
},
async testdev_testRpcMethod2(context, params) {
console.log('testdev_testRpcMethod 2', params)
return { methods: 2, params }
},
}
```

## Testing big migrations

When testing migrations with lots of keys, you may want to fetch and cache some storages.

There are two ways to fetch storages.

The first way is to use a config file with a `prefetch-storages` section:

```yml
prefetch-storages:
- '0x123456' # fetch all storages with this prefix
- Balances # fetch all storages under Balances pallet
- Tokens.Accounts # fetch all storages under Tokens.Accounts stroage
- System: Account # fetch all storages under System.Account stroage
- Tokens:
Accounts: [5GrwvaEF5zXb26Fz9rcQpDWS57CtERHpNehXCPcNoHGKutQY] # fetch all storages for Tokens.Accounts(Alice)
- Tokens.Accounts: [5GrwvaEF5zXb26Fz9rcQpDWS57CtERHpNehXCPcNoHGKutQY, { token: DOT }] # fetch this particular storage
```

When you starts chopsticks, it will fetch these storages in background.

Please note that only the formats mentioned above are supported for config files.

The second way is use `fetch-storages` subcommand to only fetch and cache storages:

```sh
npx @acala-network/chopsticks@latest fetch-storages 0x123456 Balances Tokens.Accounts
--endpoint=wss://acala-rpc-0.aca-api.network
--block= # default to latest block
--db=acala.sqlite
```

The subcommand arguments could be:
- hex: fetch all storages with this prefix
- PalletName: fetch all storages for this pallet
- PalletName.StorageName: fetch all storages for this storage

Please note that for both ways, fetched storages will be saved in the sqlite file specified by `--db` option (`db: ./acala.sqlite` in a config file), if not provided, it will default to `./db-{network}-{block}.sqlite`.
