Rust implementation of an Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) relayer.

This project comprises primarily of 5 crates:

  • ibc-relayer provides an implementation of an IBC relayer, as a library.
  • ibc-relayer-cli is a CLI (a wrapper over the ibc-relayer library), comprising the hermes binary.
  • ibc-chain-registry provides functions to fetch data from the chain registry and automatically generate chain configuration for Hermes.
  • ibc-telemetry is a library for use in the Hermes CLI, for gathering telemetry data and exposing that in a Prometheus endpoint.
  • ibc-relayer-rest is a library for use in the Hermes CLI, for exposing a REST API to inspect the state of the relayer.
  • ibc-test-framework provides the infrastructure and framework for writing end-to-end (E2E) tests that include the spawning of the relayer together with Cosmos full nodes.

See the table below for more details.

⚠️ The ibc and ibc-proto crates have been moved to their own repositories.

The repository also includes TLA+ specifications.

Band Implementation

  • Support Wasm Contract

  • Add more chain config to ignore certain acknowledge packet

    add a config named 'ignore_port_channel' in chain config that recieve a list of destination port and channel id to ignore

    e.g. ignore_port_channel = [{ channel_id = 'channel-64', port_id = 'oracle'}]

  • Add a global config that delay the packet sending used for backup hermes

    add a config named 'packet_delay' in global config that received the duration.

    e.g. packet_delay = '10s'

We have a comprehensive guide at hermes.informal.systems.

Contributing

IBC is specified in English in the cosmos/ibc repo. Any protocol changes or clarifications should be contributed there.

This repo contains the TLA+ specification and Rust implementation for the IBC modules and relayer. If you're interested in contributing, please comment on an issue or open a new one!
