harmony

Reduce Chaos in MemPool 😌

Production grade release : >= v0.8.0

Table of Contents

Motivation

I discovered Ethereum's MemPool is one of the least explored domains, but not really least important.

Whenever a block is mined & some tx(s) are included in it, it's pretty much, value living at rest, whereas is case of mempool, value is in-flight. A lot of tx(s) are fighting for their space in next block to be mined, where only a few will get their place. But who will get, based or what criteria, it's not very much well defined.

We generally believe giving higher gas price compared to other tx(s) currently present in mempool, gives better chance that block miner will pick this tx during next block mining. But block miner always gets to override that, using custom logic. Also any one can write an automated program for monitoring mempool and replicate tx(s) of their interest with their own address, higher gas price - which may help them in cutting deal faster than original one or benefitting if target smart contract has some security loophole.

During my journey of exploring Ethereum MemPool, I found good initiative from BlockNative in demystifying MemPool. They've built some interesting products on top of mempool.

harmony - Reduce Chaos in MemPool 😌, aims to become a reliable mempool monitoring engine, while exposing useful functionalities for letting client applications write their monitoring logic seamlessly, with out worrying about underlying details too much 😎

  • You can subscribe to listen for tx(s) going to/ from address of interest
  • You can catch duplicate nonce tx(s), which of them gets accepted/ dropped
  • You can build notification service on top of it
  • It will help you in getting better gas price prediction
  • It can be used for building real-time charts showing current network traffic
  • Many more ...

Architecture

architecture

internals

Prerequisite

  • Make sure you've Go ( >= 1.16), make installed
  • Get one Ethereum Node up & running, with txpool RPC API enabled. You can always use SaaS Ethereum node.
  • For leveraging pub/sub functionality harmony expects to get access to 0hub - a Pub/Sub Hub, which can be deployed by following this guide

Note: You'll need to fill 0hub's host, port in .env file

Installation

  • For using harmony, let's first clone this repo
git clone https://github.com/itzmeanjan/harmony.git
  • After getting inside harmony, create .env file with πŸ‘‡ content
cd harmony
touch .env
RPCUrl=https://<rpc-node>
WSUrl=wss://<rpc-node>
MemPoolPollingPeriod=1000
PendingPoolSize=4096
QueuedPoolSize=4096
PendingTxEntryTopic=pending_pool_entry
PendingTxExitTopic=pending_pool_exit
QueuedTxEntryTopic=queued_pool_entry
QueuedTxExitTopic=queued_pool_exit
ConcurrencyFactor=10
Port=7000
Pub0SubHost=127.0.0.1
Pub0SubPort=13000
Environment Variable Interpretation
RPCUrl txpool RPC API enabled Ethereum Node's URI
WSUrl To be used for listening to newly mined block headers
MemPoolPollingPeriod RPC node's mempool to be checked every X milliseconds
PendingPoolSize #-of pending tx(s) to be kept in-memory at a time
QueuedPoolSize #-of queued tx(s) to be kept in-memory at a time
PendingTxEntryTopic Whenever tx enters pending pool, it'll be published on Pub/Sub topic t
PendingTxExitTopic Whenever tx leaves pending pool, it'll be published on Pub/Sub topic t
QueuedTxEntryTopic Whenever tx enters queued pool, it'll be published on Pub/Sub topic t
QueuedTxExitTopic Whenever tx leaves queued pool, it'll be published on Pub/Sub topic t
ConcurrencyFactor Whenever concurrency can be leveraged, harmony will create worker pool with #-of logical CPUs x ConcurrencyFactor go routines. [ Can be float too ]
Port Starts HTTP server on this port ( > 1024 )
Pub0SubHost Pub/Sub Hub i.e. 0hub listening on address
Pub0SubPort Pub/Sub Hub i.e. 0hub listening on port

Note : When pool size exceeds, tx with lowest gas price paid to be dropped. Consider setting pool sizes to higher values, if you've enough memory on machine, otherwise it'll crash.


Multi-Node Cluster Setup

  • If you're willing to form of cluster of harmony nodes, so that they get a better picture of mempool, where each harmony node is assumed to be connected to different Ethereum Node, you need to add following options in your .env file.

Note : If mono-mode is preferred, you can simply ignore this section.

NetworkingEnabled=true
NetworkingDiscoveryMode=2
NetworkingRendezvous=this-is-rendezvous
NetworkingPort=7001
NetworkingStream=this-is-stream
NetworkingBootstrap=

As harmony nodes will form a P2P mesh network, you need to first switch networking on, by setting NetworkingEnabled to true ( default value is false ).

If you explicitly set this field to false, all Networking* fields to be ignored.

Each harmony node can help others to discover peers so that they can easily form a large P2P mesh network, which can be enabled by setting NetworkingDiscoveryMode to 2. This field accepts either of {1, 2}, where

  • 1 => Client Mode : Don't help others in discoverying their peers [ Default ]
  • 2 => Server Mode : Do πŸ‘†

harmony nodes attempt to discover other peers of interest, by publishing a rendezvous string on P2P network & look for new peers who are publishing same rendezvous string. That need to be set using NetworkingRendezvous. Make sure all nodes of your cluster uses same rendezvous string.

harmony nodes need to talk to each other over TCP, the port they use can be very different for each node. You can always set it with NetworkingPort.

harmony will only listen on loopback address i.e. 127.0.0.1

After your harmony instances have discovered each other, they'll start sending some meaningful data to each other & for doing so, a pair of nodes will open a bidirectional stream between them. This stream name can be customised using NetworkingStream.

Make sure all nodes of your cluster attempt to contract others using same stream.

During setting up a multi-node cluster, you first start a node where NetworkingBootstrap is kept empty, so that it'll attempt to use IPFS provided default bootstrap nodes, for discovering peers. Then for other nodes, you can just specify any already running harmony node's multiaddress, you'll see on console log when it boots up, as bootstrap node address. But make sure that node has NetworkingDiscoveryMode set to 2 i.e. Server Mode.

Your node's unique multi address will like : /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/7001/p2p/QmP9mDwJ3wLhQ8DzxJ5jApyEEtsjAeSoQ7ER1T6srgredW

This way you can keep adding N-many nodes to your cluster.

⭐️ One thing to notice, the whole purpose of multinode cluster set up is to gain much larger view of mempool, because mempool is very node specific thing, which will be satisfied if your harmony instances are connected to different Ethereum Nodes, who has txpool API enabled.

βœ… This is recommended practice, but you can always test multi-node set up, while relying on same Ethereum Node. In that case your interest can be putting all these harmony instances behind load balancer & serving client requests in better fashion & it's perfectly okay.


  • Let's build & run harmony
make run

Usage

Status of MemPool

For checking current state of mempool, you can issue one HTTP GET request

Method : GET

URL : /v1/stat

curl -s localhost:7000/v1/stat | jq

You'll receive response like πŸ‘‡

{
  "pendingPoolSize": 257530,
  "queuedPoolSize": 55278,
  "uptime": "271h54m7.240520958s",
  "processed": 15808071,
  "latestBlock": 12359655,
  "latestSeenAgo": "8.46197605s",
  "networkID": 1
}
Field Interpretation
pendingPoolSize Currently these many tx(s) are in pending state i.e. waiting to be picked up by some miner when next block gets mined
queuedPoolSize These tx(s) are stuck, will only be eligible for mining when lower nonce tx(s) of same wallet joins pending pool
uptime This mempool monitoring engine is alive for last t time unit
processed Mempool has seen N tx(s) getting confirmed/ dropped i.e. permanently leaving pool
latestBlock Last block, mempool heard of, from RPC Node
lastestSeenAgo Last block was seen t time unit ago
networkID The mempool monitoring engine keeps track of mempool of this network

Mempool

Querying/ watching Mempool changes.

Note : Watching mempool is equivalent of watching pending & queued pools together.

Catching Any Mempool Changes

Whenever any change in mempool pool happens i.e. tx joins/ leaves pending/ queued pool, subscriber will be notified of those.

  • Tx joins queued pool, when it's stuck due to some nonce gap
  • It'll leave queued pool, when it's unstuck & lower nonce tx is processed
  • Tx joins pending pool, when it's ready to be included in next block [ though might not ]
  • Tx leaves pool, when tx it has been included in just mined block

Aforementioned changes generally happen in mempool & using following subscription API lets you capture all of those.

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  memPool{
    from
    to
    gasPrice
	pool
	pendingFor
	queuedFor
  }
}

Catching Tx(s) From A in Mempool

When some new tx joins either of queued/ pending pool & that tx is sent from address A, subscriber to be notified of it.

When that tx will leave pool, client to be notified.

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  newTxFromAInMemPool{
    from
    to
    gasPrice
	pool
	pendingFor
	queuedFor
  }
}

Catching Tx(s) To A in Mempool

When some new tx joins either of queued/ pending pool & that tx is sent to address A, subscriber to be notified of it.

When that tx will leave pool, client to be notified.

Contract creation tx(s) will have empty to field

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  newTxToAInMemPool{
    from
    to
    gasPrice
	pool
	pendingFor
	queuedFor
  }
}

Watching Tx

You can watch any submitted pending/ queued tx, by using this API. Only requirement is tx must be currently living in mempool.

You can submit a tx on your chain of interest & invoke this API for listening to state changes concerned with this tx. You can pump this tx up, by increasing gas fees, which will result in different tx with same nonce getting submitted. And after sometime, when higher gas price tx gets accepted & lower one gets dropped, you'll get notified for both.

This can be useful, when your users use different walletUI, other than that you provide with, for pumping tx up, with higher gas price, you'll keep watching tx, until one tx with that nonce gets accepted.

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
	watchTx(hash: "0x905c056e4e7818d0b857941edc627277cc4c772847fec1708134fb366439110c") {
    	from
    	to
    	nonce
    	gas
    	gasPrice
    	queuedFor
    	pendingFor
    	pool
	}
}

Note: As of now, after watching is done, unsubscription is client's responsibility.

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  newUnstuckTx{
    from
    to
    gasPrice
  }
}

Queued Pool Changes

Whenever any change in queued tx pool happens i.e. tx joins/ leaves pool, subscriber will be notified of those

  • Tx joins queued pool, due to some issue in sender's account [ mostly nonce gap ], because it's not eligible for inclusion in next block to be mined
  • Tx leaves pool, when lower nonce has been filled up & this stuck tx is now ready to get included in block [ It's unstuck now ]

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  queuedPool{
    from
    to
    gasPrice
	pool
  }
}

New queued tx(s) from

When ever any tx is detected to be entering queued pool ( because they're stuck due to nonce gap ), where from address is matching with specified one, subscriber will be notified of it.

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  newQueuedTxFrom(address: "0x63ec5767F54F6943750A70eB6117EA2D9Ca77313"){
    from
    to
    gasPrice
  }
}

New unstuck tx(s) from

When ever any tx is detected to be leaving queued pool ( because they were stuck due to nonce gap ), where from address is matching with specified one, subscriber will be notified of it.

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  newUnstuckTxFrom(address: "0x63ec5767F54F6943750A70eB6117EA2D9Ca77313"){
    from
    to
    gasPrice
  }
}

Catching new queued tx from A

When new tx, from address A, is detected to be entering queued pool, client to be notified. Also when that tx will be unstuck, client will be notified, that tx has left queued pool & it's now eligible to enter pending pool & become candidate tx for next block to be mined.

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  newTxFromAInQueuedPool(address: "0x63ec5767F54F6943750A70eB6117EA2D9Ca77313"){
    from
    to
    gasPrice
	pendingFor
	queuedFor
  }
}

New queued tx(s) to

When ever any tx is detected to be entering queued pool ( because they're stuck due to nonce gap ), where to address is matching with specified one, subscriber will be notified of it.

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  newQueuedTxTo(address: "0x63ec5767F54F6943750A70eB6117EA2D9Ca77313"){
    from
    to
    gasPrice
  }
}

New unstuck tx(s) to

When ever any tx is detected to be leaving queued pool ( because they were stuck due to nonce gap ), where to address is matching with specified one, subscriber will be notified of it.

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  newUnstuckTxTo(address: "0x63ec5767F54F6943750A70eB6117EA2D9Ca77313"){
    from
    to
    gasPrice
  }
}

Catching new queued tx to A

When new tx, targeted to address A, is detected to be entering queued pool, client to be notified. Also when tx will be unstuck, they will be notified, that tx has left queued pool & it's now eligible to enter pending pool & become candidate tx for next block to be mined.

Transport : WebSocket

URL : /v1/graphql

subscription {
  newTxToAInQueuedPool(address: "0x63ec5767F54F6943750A70eB6117EA2D9Ca77313"){
    from
    to
    gasPrice

GraphQL Playground

harmony packs one graphQL playground for you, where you can play around with both query & subscription methods.

query works over HTTP transport, where as subscription works only over Websocket transport.

GraphQL Query/ Subscription Examples

I've written some examples for programmatically querying GraphQL API over HTTP & subscribing to topics for listening to MemPool state changes in real-time, over Websocket transport.

gql_subscription_example

You can find those here. Before you run those

  • Make sure you've Python3 installed. They're tested to be working on Python 3.9.2
  • Let's first enable virtual environment, by doing
cd examples
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
  • We can now fetch dependencies, by doing
pip install -r requirements.txt
  • You can now run any of examples, by doing
python3 query.py
python3 subscribe_1.py

Make sure, you've access to harmony node.

  • Finally when you're done, you can get out of virtual environment
deactivate
