Information related to Gluwa specific changes for Crunch.
subxt metadata --version 14 -f bytes > metadata/creditcoin_metadata.scaleOr use the handy gen_metadata.sh script.
Create a new branch. Run a local version of your node with the updated runtime and run the
gen_metadata.sh script. Move that metadata to the metadata folder and check that the binary
compiles (Because subxt uses macros you need to perform a full compile and not just a cargo check
for completeness). After you test the new metadata create a PR and merge your branch into either
mainnet, testnnet, or devnet. A push to either of these branches triggers a workflow that
builds the docker image and pushes it to Gluwa's repo.
The image will be named crunch-[BRANCH]:latest.
This file is almost identical to runtimes/polkadot.rs. The only changes made were to the path of the metadata file for the node_runtime and in the function try_run_batch_pool_members. The member field expected an Address32 according to the compiler and it the other implementations it was a MultiAddress.
If you have issues building the docker image for this repo and you are on an M1 mac try upgrading your version of MacOs. YMMV
crunch is a command-line interface (CLI) to easily automate payouts of staking rewards on Substrate-based chains.
To claim staking rewards for just one or a list of Validators at the end of each Era or every X hours.
To get notified about the amount and rate of the total staking rewards each Validator and their Nominators got
To be informed about era stats for each Validator, e.g. inclusion rate, claimed rewards rate, era points trend, active for current era
To easily inspect about any unclaimed eras for a given Validator stash
To promote Validators by publicly publish their automated staking rewards to a public Crunch Bot room
For Nominators in private or public rooms check their chosen Validators rewards performance
For Pool Operators to ensure that all active validators selected - active pool nominees - payout on time. An additional guarantee for Pool members that Pool operatos act in members best interests.
For Pool Operators to auto-compound members rewards above certain threshold.

Crunch Bot (Matrix)
If you set up crunch on your server with a matrix user 👉 you get your own Crunch Bot.
To enable Crunch Bot you will need to create a specific account on Element or similar and copy
the values to the respective environment variables CRUNCH_MATRIX_BOT_USER and
CRUNCH_MATRIX_BOT_PASSWORD like in the configuration example file
.env.example. You may also want
to set your regular matrix user to the environment variable CRUNCH_MATRIX_USER. So that
Crunch Bot could create a private room and send in messages. By default Crunch Bot will
automatically invite your regular matrix user to a private room. Also by default Crunch Bot
will send a copy of the messages to the respective network public room for which is connected to.
Join and read the messages history of all the Public Rooms for which Crunch Bots are sending messages:
|
Westend Crunch Bot (Public) |
|
Kusama Crunch Bot (Public) |
|
Polkadot Crunch Bot (Public) |
If you have been doing crunch configuration as described in previous steps (assuming .env and .private.seed defined inside /crunch-bot folder), run crunch when /crunch-bot folder is your current working directory. Otherwise you will have to specify .env and .private.seed custom paths.
#!/bin/bash
# set /crunch-bot your current working directory
cd /crunch-botBy default crunch tries to connect to your local substrate node on the default websocket port ws://127.0.0.1:9944. This can be changed by typing one of polkadot main chains - westend, kusama or polkadot. Or by changing the substrate websocket url with the option --substrate-ws-url.
crunch default sub command is flakes, there are fun messages if you stick with it, or you can choose the regular sub command rewards rather than flakes. As you prefer. Both sub commands are identical in terms of job execution. But logs, messages/notifications differ.
Essentially crunch motto is enjoy Crunch Bot while crunch flakes :)
If all has been set as previously described crunch should be ready with just the following options:
#!/bin/bash
# if running a local node than simple run crunch with default options
# by default crunch will try to connect to ws://localhost:9944
# and claim staking rewards as soon as the current era finishes
crunch rewards
# or be specific to which network crunch will try to connect
crunch kusama rewards
# or for Polkadot network and claiming rewards once a day at a specific time
crunch polkadot rewards daily
# or for Westend network and claiming rewards every 6 hours at a specific time
crunch westend rewards turbo
# or for Westend network with unique stashes verified and for all configured pools nominees and claiming rewards every era
crunch westend --enable-unique-stashes rewards era --enable-pool-all-nominees-payout
# or to auto-compound members rewards of nomination pools you operate
crunch kusama rewards --enable-pool-members-compound
# or to know which ONE-T grade a validator got from the last 6 sessions
crunch kusama rewards --enable-onet-api
# or try flakes just for fun :)
crunch flakes
# to list all options try help
crunch helpIf you need more customization run help to check all sub commands, flags and options.
Note: All flags and options are also available through environment variables if defined in .env configuration file. You can choose which way you want to configure crunch. Take in consideration that if the same variable is defined on both sides e.g. defined in .env and through CLI flag/option, crunch will take the value defined by CLI.
#!/bin/bash
# if you need a custom crunch check all the options and flags available

trigger payouts only for the ACTIVE nominees and not all).
--enable-pool-all-nominees-payout Enable payouts for ALL the nominees assigned to the Nomination Pools
defined in 'pool-ids'. (e.g. with this flag active 'crunch' will try to
trigger payouts for ALL nominees and not only the active ones - the ones
the stake of the Nomination Pool was allocated).
--enable-pool-members-compound Allow 'crunch' to compound rewards for every member that belongs to the
pools previously selected by '--pool-ids' option. Note that members have
to have their permissions set as PermissionlessCompound or
PermissionlessAll.
--enable-pool-only-operator-compound Allow 'crunch' to compound rewards for the pool operator member that
belongs to the pools previously selected by '--pool-ids' option. Note
that the operator member account have to have their permissions set as

--matrix-bot-password <matrix-bot-password>
Password for the 'Crunch Bot' matrix user sign in.
--matrix-bot-user <matrix-bot-user>
Your new 'Crunch Bot' matrix user. e.g. '@your-own-crunch-bot-account:matrix.org' this user account will be
your 'Crunch Bot' which will be responsible to send messages/notifications to your private or public 'Crunch
Bot' rooms.
--matrix-user <matrix-user>
Your regular matrix user. e.g. '@your-regular-matrix-account:matrix.org' this user account will receive
notifications from your other 'Crunch Bot' matrix account.
--maximum-calls <maximum-calls>
Maximum number of calls in a single batch. [default: 8]
--maximum-history-eras <maximum-history-eras>
Maximum number of history eras for which crunch will look for unclaimed rewards. The maximum value supported
is the one defined by the constant history_depth - usually 84 - (e.g. a value of 4 means that crunch will
only check in latest 4 eras if there are any unclaimed rewards for each stash address). [default: 4]
-m, --maximum-payouts <maximum-payouts>
Maximum number of unclaimed eras for which an extrinsic payout will be submitted. (e.g. a value of 4 means
that if there are unclaimed eras in the last 84 the maximum unclaimed payout calls for each stash address
will be 4).
--pool-ids <pool-ids>
Nomination pool ids for which 'crunch' will try to fetch the validator stash addresses (e.g. poll_id_1,
pool_id_2).
-f, --seed-path <FILE>
Sets a custom seed file path. The seed file contains the private seed phrase to Sign the extrinsic payout
call.
ARGS:
<MODE> Sets how often staking rewards should be claimed from unclaimed eras. (e.g. the option 'era' sets
'crunch' task to run as soon as the EraPaid on-chain event is triggered; the option 'daily' sets
'crunch' task to be repeated every 24 hours; option 'turbo' sets 'crunch' task to be repeated every 6
hours) [default: era] [possible values: era, daily, turbo]Note: By default crunch collects the outstanding payouts from previous eras and group all the
extrinsic payout calls in group of 4 or whatever value defined in the flag maximum-calls so that
a single batch call per group can be made. The collection of all outstanding payouts from previous
eras is also limited by 2 other flags. The first being maximum-payouts which default value is 4,
this flag limits the number of payouts per stash. The other one is the maximum-history-eras
which default is also 4, this flag limits the number of past eras crunch will look for unclaimed
rewards - but this flag only applies if short flag is also used in the configuration. This is done
so that crunch can run efficiently every era.
With that said, if it's the first time you are running crunch and you are not sure if you have
any unclaimed rewards or if you just want to know for the stash accounts defined in the confguration
file (.env), which eras from the last 84 have already been claimed or unclaimed, you can simply run
crunch view.
Note: The crunch view mode only logs information into the terminal.
#!/bin/bash
# log unclaimed rewards for Westend network
crunch westend view
# or for Kusama network
crunch kusama view
# or for Polkadot network
crunch polkadot viewNote: You can run crunch inside a tmux session and leave it, or using something like systemd to run crunch on server restarts for example. By default crunch will wake up every X hours to claim rewards if there are any to claim.
