Detect real-time threats on Op-Stack compatible blockchain

pessimism

Because you can't always be optimistic

Pessimism is a public good monitoring service that allows for Optimism bedrock blockchains (Base Layer 2, Optimism) to be continously assessed for real-time threats using customly defined user invariant rulesets.

Warning: Pessimism is currently experimental and very much in development. It means Pessimism is currently unstable, so code will change and builds can break over the coming months. If you come across problems, it would help greatly to open issues so that we can fix them as quickly as possible.

Setup

To use the template, run the following the command(s):

1. Create local config file (config.env) to store all necessary environmental variables. There's already an example config.env.template in the repo that stores default env vars.

2. Download or upgrade to golang 1.19.

3. Install all project golang dependencies by running go mod download.

To Run

1. Compile pessimism to machine binary by running the following project level command(s):

   • Using Make: make build-app

2. To run the compiled binary, you can use the following project level command(s):

   • Using Make: make run-app
   • Direct Call: ./bin/pessimism

Linting

golangci-lint is used to perform code linting. Configurations are defined in .golangci.yml It can be ran using the following project level command(s):

• Using Make: make lint
• Direct Call: golangci-lint run

Testing

Unit Tests

Unit tests are written using the native go test library with test mocks generated using the golang native mock library.

Unit tests can ran using the following project level command(s):

• Using Make: make test
• Direct Call: go test ./...
