In memory node, with fork support

This crate provides an in-memory node that supports forking the state from other networks.

The goal of this crate is to offer a fast solution for integration testing, bootloader and system contract testing, and prototyping.

Please note that this crate is still in the alpha stage, and not all functionality is fully supported. For final testing, it is highly recommended to use the 'local-node' or a testnet.

Current limitations:

  • No communication between Layer 1 and Layer 2 (the local node operates only on Layer 2).
  • Many APIs are not yet implemented, but the basic set of APIs is supported.
  • No support for accessing historical data, such as the storage state at a specific block.
  • Only one transaction is allowed per Layer 1 batch.
  • Fixed values are returned for zk Gas estimation.

Current features:

  • Can fork the state of the mainnet, testnet, or a custom network at any given height.
  • Can replay the existing mainnet, testnet transaaction.
  • Uses local bootloader and system contracts, making it suitable for testing new changes.
  • When running in non-fork mode, it operates deterministically (only one transaction per block, etc.), which simplifies testing.
  • Starts up quickly and comes pre-configured with a few 'rich' accounts.
  • Supports hardhat's console.log debugging.
  • Can resolve the names of ABI functions and Events (using openchain)

Installation

The easiest way is to install from source:

cargo install --git https://github.com/mm-zk/era-test-node.git

Rust should install it in ~/.cargo/bin directory.

If you get compile errors due to rocksDB, you might also want to install:

apt-get install -y cmake pkg-config libssl-dev clang

How to

To start a node:

zksync_test_node run

This will run a node (with an empty state) and make it available on port 8011

To fork mainnet:

zksync_test_node fork mainnet

This will run the node, forked at current head of mainnet

You can also specify the custom http endpoint and custom forking height:

zksync_test_node fork --fork-at 7000000 http://172.17.0.3:3060

Or replay locally a remote transaction (for example to see more debug information).

zksync_test_node replay_tx testnet 0x7f039bcbb1490b855be37e74cf2400503ad57f51c84856362f99b0cbf1ef478a

Seeing more details of the transactions

By default, the tool is just printing the basic information about the executed transactions (like status, gas used etc).

But with --show-calls flag, it can print more detailed call traces, and with --resolve-hashes, it will ask openchain for ABI names.

$ zksync_test_node --show-calls=user --resolve-hashes replay_tx testnet 0x7f039bcbb1490b855be37e74cf2400503ad57f51c84856362f99b0cbf1ef478a

Forking network & sending calls

You can use your favorite development tool (or tools like curl) or zksync-foundry:

Check testnet LINK balance

$ zksync_test_node fork testnet

$ zkcast call 0x40609141Db628BeEE3BfAB8034Fc2D8278D0Cc78 "name()(string)" --rpc-url http://localhost:8011

> ChainLink Token (goerli)


$ zkcast call 0x40609141Db628BeEE3BfAB8034Fc2D8278D0Cc78 "balanceOf(address)(uint256)"  0x40609141Db628BeEE3BfAB8034Fc2D8278D0Cc78  --rpc-url http://localhost:8011
> 28762283719732275444443116625665

Or Mainnet USDT:

zksync_test_node fork mainnet

zkcast call 0x493257fD37EDB34451f62EDf8D2a0C418852bA4C "name()(string)" --rpc-url http://localhost:8011

> Tether USD

And you can also build & deploy your own contracts:

zkforge zkc src/Greeter.sol:Greeter --constructor-args "ZkSync and Foundry" --private-key 7726827caac94a7f9e1b160f7ea819f172f7b6f9d2a97f992c38edeab82d4110 --rpc-url http://localhost:8011 --chain 270

Testing bootloader & system contracts

In-memory node is taking the currently compiled bootloader & system contracts - therefore easily allowing to test changes (and together with fork, allows to see the effects of the changes on the already deployed contracts).

You can see the bootloader logs, by setting the proper log level. In the example below, we recompile the bootloader, and run it with mainnet fork.

cd etc/system-contracts
yarn preprocess && yarn hardhat run ./scripts/compile-yul.ts
cd -
RUST_LOG=vm=trace cargo run -p zksync_test_node fork --dev_use_local_contracts --fork-at 70000000 testnet

How does it work

It utilizes an in-memory database to store the state information and employs simplified hashmaps to track blocks and transactions.

In fork mode, it attempts to retrieve missing storage data from a remote source when it's not available locally.

Moreover it also uses the remote server (openchain) to resolve the ABI and topics to human readable names.
