# MobyMask Watcher P2P Network
Instructions to setup and deploy a watcher that connects to the existing watcher p2p network
## Prerequisites
* Laconic Stack Orchestrator ([installation](/README.md#install))
* A publicly reachable domain name with SSL setup
This demo has been tested on a `Ubuntu 22.04 LTS` machine with `8GB` of RAM
## Setup
Clone required repositories:
```bash
laconic-so --stack mobymask-v2 setup-repositories --include github.com/cerc-io/MobyMask,github.com/cerc-io/watcher-ts,github.com/cerc-io/mobymask-v2-watcher-ts
# This will clone the required repositories at ~/cerc
# If this throws an error as a result of being already checked out to a branch/tag in a repo, remove the repositories mentioned in the next step and re-run the command
# Expected output:
# Dev Root is: /home/xyz/cerc
# Checking: /home/xyz/cerc/watcher-ts: Needs to be fetched
# 100%|#############################################################################################################################################| 9.96k/9.96k [00:05<00:00, 1.70kB/s]
# Checking: /home/xyz/cerc/mobymask-v2-watcher-ts: Needs to be fetched
# 100%|################################################################################################################################################| 19.0/19.0 [00:01<00:00, 13.6B/s]
# Checking: /home/xyz/cerc/MobyMask: Needs to be fetched
# 100%|##############################################################################################################################################| 1.41k/1.41k [00:18<00:00, 76.4B/s]
```
Build the container images:
```bash
laconic-so --stack mobymask-v2 build-containers --include cerc/watcher-ts,cerc/watcher-mobymask-v2,cerc/mobymask
```
Check that the required images are created in the local image registry:
```bash
docker image ls
# Expected output:
# REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
# cerc/watcher-mobymask-v2 local c4dba5dc8d48 24 seconds ago 1.02GB
# cerc/watcher-ts local 9ef61478c243 9 minutes ago 1.84GB
# cerc/mobymask local 9db3f1a69966 2 weeks ago 3.82GB
# .
# .
```
## Deploy
### Configuration
Create an env file `mobymask-watcher.env`:
```bash
touch mobymask-watcher.env
```
Add the following contents to `mobymask-watcher.env`:
```bash
# Domain to be used in the relay node's announce address
CERC_RELAY_ANNOUNCE_DOMAIN="mobymask.example.com"
# DO NOT CHANGE THESE VALUES
CERC_L2_GETH_RPC="https://mobymask-l2.dev.vdb.to"
CERC_DEPLOYED_CONTRACT="0x2B6AFbd4F479cE4101Df722cF4E05F941523EaD9"
CERC_ENABLE_PEER_L2_TXS=false
CERC_RELAY_PEERS=["/dns4/relay1.dev.vdb.to/tcp/443/wss/p2p/12D3KooWAx83SM9GWVPc9v9fNzLzftRX6EaAFMjhYiFxRYqctcW1", "/dns4/relay2.dev.vdb.to/tcp/443/wss/p2p/12D3KooWBycy6vHVEfUwwYRbPLBdb5gx9gtFSEMpErYPUjUkDNkm", "/dns4/relay3.dev.vdb.to/tcp/443/wss/p2p/12D3KooWARcUJsiGCgiygiRVVK94U8BNSy8DFBbzAF3B6orrabwn"]
```
Replace `CERC_RELAY_ANNOUNCE_DOMAIN` with your public domain name
### Deploy the stack
```bash
laconic-so --stack mobymask-v2 deploy --cluster mobymask_v2 --include watcher-mobymask-v2 --env-file mobymask-watcher.env up
# Expected output (ignore the "The X variable is not set. Defaulting to a blank string." warnings):
# [+] Running 9/9
# ✔ Network mobymask_v2_default Created 0.1s
# ✔ Volume "mobymask_v2_peers_ids" Created 0.0s
# ✔ Volume "mobymask_v2_mobymask_watcher_db_data" Created 0.0s
# ✔ Volume "mobymask_v2_mobymask_deployment" Created 0.0s
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-mobymask-watcher-db-1 Healthy 22.2s
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-mobymask-1 Exited 2.2s
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-peer-ids-gen-1 Exited 23.9s
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-mobymask-watcher-server-1 Healthy 43.6s
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-peer-tests-1 Started 44.5s
```
This will run the `mobymask-v2-watcher` including:
* A relay node which is in a federated setup with relay nodes set in the env file
* A peer node which connects to the watcher relay node as an entrypoint to the MobyMask watcher p2p network. This peer listens for messages from other peers on the network and logs them out to the console
The watcher GraphQL endpoint is exposed on host port `3001` and the relay node endpoint is exposed on host port `9090`
To list down and monitor the running containers:
```bash
laconic-so --stack mobymask-v2 deploy --cluster mobymask_v2 --include watcher-mobymask-v2 ps
# Expected output:
# Running containers:

```
Check watcher container logs to get multiaddr advertised by the watcher's relay node and note it down for further usage:
```bash
laconic-so --stack mobymask-v2 deploy --cluster mobymask_v2 --include watcher-mobymask-v2 logs mobymask-watcher-server | grep -A 2 "Relay node started"
# The multiaddr will be of form /dns4/<CERC_RELAY_ANNOUNCE_DOMAIN>/tcp/443/wss/p2p/<RELAY_PEER_ID>
# Expected output:
# mobymask_v2-mobymask-watcher-server-1 | 2023-04-20T04:22:57.069Z laconic:relay Relay node started with id 12D3KooWKef84LAcBNb9wZNs6jC5kQFXjddo47hK6AGHD2dSvGai (characteristic-black-pamella)

```
## Web App
To be able to connect to the relay node from remote peers, it needs to be publicly reachable.
Configure your website with SSL and the `https` traffic reverse proxied as:
* `/graphql` to port `3001` (watcher GQL endpoint)
* `/` to port `9090` (relay node)
For example, a Nginx configuration for domain `mobymask.example.com` would look something like:
```bash
server {
server_name mobymask.example.com;
location /graphql {
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3001;
proxy_read_timeout 90;
}
# https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/websocket.html
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:9090;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
# set a large timeout to avoid websocket disconnects
proxy_read_timeout 86400;
}

}
server {
if ($host = mobymask.example.com) {
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
} # managed by Certbot
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name mobymask.example.com;
return 404; # managed by Certbot
}
```
To test the web-app, either visit https://mobymask-lxdao-app.dev.vdb.to/ or follow [web-app.md](./web-app.md) to deploy the app locally that hits your watcher's GQL endpoint
Connect a browser peer to the watcher's relay node:
* Click on debug panel on bottom right of the homepage
* Select `<custom>` in `Primary Relay` dropdown on the right and enter the watcher relay node's multiaddr
* Click on `UPDATE` to refresh the page and connect to the watcher's relay node; you should see the relay node's multiaddr in `Self Node Info` on the debug panel
* Switch to the `GRAPH (PEERS)` tab to see peers connected to this browser node and the `GRAPH (NETWORK)` tab to see the whole MobyMask p2p network
Perform transactions:
* An invitation is required to be able to perform transactions; ask an existing user of the app for an invite
* In a browser, close the app if it's already open and then open the invite link
* From the debug panel, confirm that the browser peer is connected to at least one other peer
* Check the status for a phisher to be reported in the `Check Phisher Status` section on homepage
* Select `Report Phisher` option in the `Pending reports` section, enter multiple phisher records and click on the `Submit batch to p2p network` button; this broadcasts signed invocations to peers on the network, including the watcher peer
* Check the watcher container logs to see the message received:
```bash
docker logs $(docker ps -aq --filter name="mobymask-watcher-server")

## Clean up
Stop all services running in the background:
```bash
laconic-so --stack mobymask-v2 deploy --cluster mobymask_v2 --include watcher-mobymask-v2 down
# Expected output:
# [+] Running 6/6
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-peer-tests-1 Removed 10.5s
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-mobymask-watcher-server-1 Removed 10.8s
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-peer-ids-gen-1 Removed 0.0s
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-mobymask-1 Removed 0.0s
# ✔ Container mobymask_v2-mobymask-watcher-db-1 Removed 0.6s
# ✔ Network mobymask_v2_default Removed 0.5s
```
Clear volumes created by this stack:
```bash
# List all relevant volumes
docker volume ls -q --filter "name=mobymask_v2"
# Expected output:
# mobymask_v2_mobymask_deployment
# mobymask_v2_mobymask_watcher_db_data
# mobymask_v2_peers_ids
# Remove all the listed volumes
docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q --filter "name=mobymask_v2")
```
## Troubleshooting
* If you don't see any peer connections being formed in the debug panel on https://mobymask-lxdao-app.dev.vdb.to/, try clearing out the website's local storage and refreshing the page
