- Bridge-hub Parachains
BridgeHub(s) are system parachains that will house trustless bridges from the local ecosystem to others. The current trustless bridges planned for the BridgeHub(s) are:
BridgeHubPolkadot
system parachain:- Polkadot <-> Kusama bridge
- Polkadot <-> Ethereum bridge (Snowbridge)
BridgeHubKusama
system parachain:- Kusama <-> Polkadot bridge
- Kusama <-> Ethereum bridge The high-level responsibilities of each bridge living on BridgeHub:
- sync finality proofs between relay chains (or equivalent)
- sync finality proofs between BridgeHub parachains
- pass (XCM) messages between different BridgeHub parachains
# Prepare empty directory for testing

# 1. Install zombienet
Go to: https://github.com/paritytech/zombienet/releases
Copy the apropriate binary (zombienet-linux) from the latest release to ~/local_bridge_testing/bin
---
# 2. Build polkadot binary
git clone https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot.git
cd polkadot
# if you want to test Kusama/Polkadot bridge, we need "sudo pallet + fast-runtime",
# so please, find the latest polkadot's repository branch `it/release-vX.Y.Z-fast-sudo`
# e.g:
# git checkout -b it/release-v0.9.43-fast-sudo --track origin/it/release-v0.9.43-fast-sudo
cargo build --release --features fast-runtime
cp target/release/polkadot ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot
---
# 3. Build substrate-relay binary
git clone https://github.com/paritytech/parity-bridges-common.git
cd parity-bridges-common
# checkout desired branch or use master:
# git checkout -b master --track origin/master
# `polkadot-staging` (recommended) is stabilized and compatible for Cumulus releases
# `master` is latest development
git checkout -b polkadot-staging --track origin/polkadot-staging
cargo build --release -p substrate-relay
cp target/release/substrate-relay ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/substrate-relay
---
# 4. Build cumulus polkadot-parachain binary
cd <cumulus-git-repo-dir>
# checkout desired branch or use master:
# git checkout -b master --track origin/master
cargo build --release --locked --bin polkadot-parachain
cp target/release/polkadot-parachain ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot-parachain
cp target/release/polkadot-parachain ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot-parachain-asset-hub
# !!! READ HERE (TODO remove once all mentioned branches bellow are merged)
# The use case "moving assets over bridge" is not merged yet and is implemented in separate branches.
# So, if you want to try it, you need to checkout different branch and continue with these instructions there.
# For Kusama/Polkadot local bridge testing:
#
# build BridgeHubs (polkadot-parachain) from branch:
# git checkout -b bridge-hub-kusama-polkadot --track origin/bridge-hub-kusama-polkadot
# cargo build --release --locked --bin polkadot-parachain
# cp target/release/polkadot-parachain ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot-parachain
#
# build AssetHubs (polkadot-parachain-asset-hub) from branch:
# git checkout -b bko-transfer-asset-via-bridge-pallet-xcm --track origin/bko-transfer-asset-via-bridge-pallet-xcm
# cargo build --release --locked --bin polkadot-parachain
# cp target/release/polkadot-parachain ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot-parachain-asset-hub
# For Rococo/Wococo local bridge testing:
#
# build AssetHubs (polkadot-parachain-asset-hub) from branch:
# git checkout -b bko-transfer-asset-via-bridge-pallet-xcm-ro-wo --track origin/bko-transfer-asset-via-bridge-pallet-xcm-ro-wo
# cargo build --release --locked --bin polkadot-parachain
# cp target/release/polkadot-parachain ~/local_bridge_testing/bin/polkadot-parachain-asset-hub
# Rococo + BridgeHubRococo + AssetHub for Rococo (mirroring Kusama)
