4. Relay Packets

4.1 Query balances

  • balance at ibc-0

    gaiad --node tcp://localhost:26657 query bank balances $(gaiad --home data/ibc-0 keys --keyring-backend="test" show user -a)

  • balance at ibc-1

    gaiad --node tcp://localhost:26557 query bank balances $(gaiad --home data/ibc-1 keys --keyring-backend="test" show user -a)

Note that the addresses used in the two commands above are configured in dev-env.

4.2 Packet relaying

First, we'll send 9999 samoleans from ibc-0 to ibc-1.

  • start the transfer of 9999 samoleans from ibc-0 to ibc-1. This sends a MsgTransfer in a transaction to ibc-0

    hermes tx raw ft-transfer ibc-1 ibc-0 transfer channel-0 9999 -o 1000 -n 1 -d samoleans

  • query packet commitments on ibc-0

    hermes query packet commitments ibc-0 transfer channel-0

  • query unreceived packets on ibc-1

    hermes query packet unreceived-packets ibc-1 transfer channel-1

  • send recv_packet to ibc-1

    hermes tx raw packet-recv ibc-1 ibc-0 transfer channel-0

  • query unreceived acks on ibc-0

    hermes query packet unreceived-acks ibc-0 transfer channel-0

  • send acknowledgement to ibc-0

    hermes tx raw packet-ack ibc-0 ibc-1 transfer channel-1

Send those samoleans back, from ibc-1 to ibc-0.

hermes tx raw ft-transfer ibc-0 ibc-1 transfer channel-1 9999 -o 1000 -n 1 -d ibc/49D321B40FCF56B0370E5673CF090389C8E9CD185209FBE1BEE5D94E58E69BDC
hermes tx raw packet-recv ibc-0 ibc-1 transfer channel-1
hermes tx raw packet-ack  ibc-1 ibc-0 transfer channel-0

The ibc/49D321B40FCF56B0370E5673CF090389C8E9CD185209FBE1BEE5D94E58E69BDC denominator above can be obtained by querying the balance at ibc-1 after the transfer from ibc-0 to ibc-1 is concluded.

Next we will test the packet timeouts.

  • send 1 packet with low timeout height offset to ibc-0

    hermes tx raw ft-transfer ibc-1 ibc-0 transfer channel-0 9999 -o 2 -n 1

  • send timeout to ibc-0

    hermes tx raw packet-recv ibc-1 ibc-0 transfer channel-0

  • send 1 packet with 2 second timeout to ibc-0

    hermes tx raw ft-transfer ibc-1 ibc-0 transfer channel-0 9999 -t 2 -n 1

  • send timeout to ibc-0

    hermes tx raw packet-recv ibc-1 ibc-0 transfer channel-0
