Configuration¶

Each repository of Gardener project (smart contracts, server, monitor) contains an .env variables file. This section is going to explain parameters from them. Default parameters are set in a way everything should work correctly when using local test blockchain (ganache) and following the Getting started guide.

Server¶

ADDRESS - address of the server’s account, from which it sends the results of request to the smart contracts
PRIVATE_KEY - private key of the server’s account
ORACLE_ADDRESS - address of the Oracle smart contract
DATABASE_URL - URL with port for MongoDB connection
DATABASE_NAME - MongoDB database name
NODE_URL - URL for the provider to blockchain network
API_PORT - port for exposing the server’s REST API, currently the only endpoint is heartbeat used by Gardener’s monitor
SAFE_DELAY_BLOCKS - set a delay in a number of blocks to resist chain reorganization problem, server loads target block when it’s number is at least SAFE_DELAY_BLOCKS lower than the youngest one
START_BLOCK - set starting block number from which server listen for oracle requests
PERSISTENCE - selected persistence type, currently supported: INMEMORY or MONGODB

Smart contracts¶

PRIVATE_KEY - private key used for contract deployment, if both PRIVATE_KEY and MNEMONIC are passed, PRIVATE_KEY is used
MNEMONIC - 12 secret random words for accessing HD wallet (deployment)
PROVIDER_URL - provider for deploying contracts into test network
ORACLE_SERVER_ADDRESS - address of oracle server account

Monitor¶

REACT_APP_PROVIDER_URL - URL for the provider to blockchain network
REACT_APP_STATUS_URL - hearbeat endpoint, responsible for checking if server is working
REACT_APP_ORACLE_ADDRESS - address of the Oracle smart contract
