Mosaic Contracts: A Guide to Parallelization for Decentralized Applications

Sep 3, 2021 | Blockchain

Are you ready to dive into the world of Mosaic Contracts and revolutionize your decentralized applications? This blog will take you through the steps to install, set up, and effectively use Mosaic Contracts. Let’s embark on this journey together!

What are Mosaic Contracts?

Mosaic is a groundbreaking parallelization schema for decentralized applications that allows them to integrate various blockchain systems seamlessly. Imagine a traffic system where multiple roads lead to the same destination without causing a jam; that’s what Mosaic does for blockchain applications. It enables decentralized applications to compute across a composed network of multiple blockchains simultaneously, making transactions faster and more efficient.

Installing Mosaic Contracts

Ready to install Mosaic Contracts? Follow the simple steps below:

For JavaScript Consumers

  • Open your terminal.
  • Run the following command to install the Mosaic Contracts package:
bash
npm install @openstmosaic-contracts

Usage of Contracts

After installation, you can access the meta-data of the contracts directly:

typescript
import contracts from @openstmosaic-contracts; 
const anchorAbi = contracts.Anchor.abi; 
const anchorBinary = contracts.Anchor.bin;

Utilizing contract interactions is straightforward:

typescript
import Interacts from @openstmosaic-contracts; 
const anchor:Anchor = Interacts.getAnchor(web3, 0xAnchorContractAddress); 
const gateway:EIP20Gateway = Interacts.getEIP20Gateway(web3, 0xEIP20GatewayContactAddress);

One may also create Web3 contracts by utilizing the following:

typescript
import contracts from @openstmosaic-contracts; 
const jsonInterface = contracts.Anchor.abi; 
const contract = new web3.eth.Contract(jsonInterface, address, options); 
const anchor:Anchor = contract as Anchor;

For Direct Users

If you want to set up a new Mosaic chain, follow these steps:

  • Clone the repository and navigate into the project directory:
  • bash
    git clone https://github.com/OpenST/mosaic-contracts.git
    cd mosaic-contracts
    
  • Install dependencies:
  • bash
    npm run update # Runs git submodule update --init --recursive 
    npm ci
    npm run compile:all
    

Deployment

A deployment tool is available for setting up:

bash
node .tools/blue_deployment/index.js

This feature is still experimental, so proceed with caution!

Troubleshooting

While setting up Mosaic Contracts, you might encounter some issues. Here are a few troubleshooting tips:

  • If you run into installation issues, ensure that you have the latest version of Node.js and npm installed.
  • For any unexpected behavior, double-check your code and contracts syntax, as typos can lead to confusion.
  • If the contracts are not functioning as expected, verify that you are using the correct contract addresses.
  • In case of persistent issues, try searching for solutions in the community forum or the project’s GitHub issues page.
