Bitsage Network Coordinator

A production-ready coordinator system for the Bitsage Network, designed to manage job distribution, worker registration, and blockchain integration on Starknet.

🚀 Current Status

✅ Working Components

• Simple Coordinator - Basic job and worker management
• Core Types - Job, Worker, and Blockchain integration types
• Configuration System - Comprehensive configuration management
• Basic Blockchain Integration - Starknet client and contract interactions
• Database Integration - SQLite-based job and worker storage

❌ Known Issues

• Network Module Compilation Errors - P2P network, discovery, and gossip protocol issues
• Enhanced Coordinator Type Mismatches - NetworkCoordinator vs NetworkCoordinatorService conflicts
• Missing Methods - Several components have incomplete implementations
• Async/Await Issues - Incorrect handling of futures and async tasks

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Rust 1.70+
• SQLite
• Starknet Sepolia testnet access

Build and Run

1. Build the project:

cargo build

2. Run the simple coordinator:

cargo run --bin ciro-coordinator

3. Run with custom config:

cargo run --bin ciro-coordinator config.json

Configuration

Create a config.json file:

{
  "server_port": 8080,
  "blockchain": {
    "rpc_url": "https://alpha-sepolia.starknet.io",
    "chain_id": "SN_SEPOLIA",
    "contract_address": "0x1234567890abcdef",
    "private_key": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001"
  },
  "database": {
    "url": "sqlite://./coordinator.db"
  }
}

📋 Available Commands

🔧 Development

Current Focus Areas

1. Fix Network Module Issues

   • Resolve P2P network compilation errors
   • Fix discovery protocol implementation
   • Complete gossip protocol implementation

2. Resolve Type Mismatches

   • Align NetworkCoordinator and NetworkCoordinatorService
   • Fix missing method implementations
   • Correct async/await handling

3. Complete Enhanced Coordinator

   • Fix Kafka integration issues
   • Complete metrics collection
   • Implement proper error handling

Compilation Issues to Address

Network Module (src/network/)

• P2P Network: Mutable borrow issues with Arc
• Discovery: Future trait implementation issues
• Gossip: Missing P2PMessage variants and method signatures

Coordinator Module (src/coordinator/)

• Type Mismatches: NetworkCoordinator vs NetworkCoordinatorService
• Missing Methods: get_blockchain_stats, proper async handling
• Kafka Integration: Consumer/producer initialization issues

Blockchain Integration

• Transaction Handling: FieldElement unwrap_or issues
• Error Handling: Proper Result type handling

Testing Strategy

1. Unit Tests

   • Test individual components
   • Mock external dependencies
   • Verify error handling

2. Integration Tests

   • Test coordinator workflows
   • Verify blockchain interactions
   • Test API endpoints

3. End-to-End Tests

   • Complete job lifecycle
   • Worker registration and job assignment
   • Blockchain transaction flow

🐛 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Compilation Errors

   • Most errors are in the enhanced coordinator
   • Use simple coordinator for immediate functionality
   • Focus on network module fixes first

2. Blockchain Connection

   • Verify RPC URL and network configuration
   • Check contract address and private key
   • Ensure sufficient balance for transactions

3. Database Issues

   • Verify SQLite file permissions
   • Check database URL format
   • Ensure proper schema initialization

Debug Mode

Enable debug logging:

RUST_LOG=debug cargo run --bin ciro-coordinator

📊 Monitoring

Health Checks

• Coordinator status endpoint: GET /health
• Component status: GET /status
• Job statistics: GET /jobs/stats
• Worker statistics: GET /workers/stats

Metrics

• Job completion rates
• Worker performance metrics
• Blockchain transaction success rates
• Network connectivity status
