State-bridge

[ScottyPoi]

Bridge script to generage state network content

from packages/cli
run npx ts-node --esm scripts/bridgeThread.ts

This will request new block data every 12 seconds using a (free) Alchemy API_KEY, then spin up a worker_thread to request any additional data (proofs, etc.) and generate state_network content.

Without any additional options, the script will simply log statistics about the content.

Pass in cli options to pump data into a devnet
--devnet=true
--numNodes
--port

the "port" options refers to the RPC port number of the first node, and assumes that a devnet will consist of nodes at consecutive ports incrementing from this. It defaults to 8545.

If numNodes = 1, the StateBridge script will call portal_stateStore to store each new piece of content in the node.

if numNodes = 2, the StateBridge script will call portal_stateStore to store each new piece of content in the FIRST node.

if numNodes > 2, the StateBridge script will call portal_stateGossip for each new piece of content, alternating which node is being called with each new block. This would simulate a network of "bootnodes" each producing a share of content to pump into the network.

Will review this more throughout today. But one comment is stateBridge.ts should be in cli/scripts and not part of our source code for the cli, right?

Sure. I didn't really think of this as something to merge the way it is anyway. i just had it in cli/src so that it would automatically compile with npm run build

Got it. Lemme see what I can do about moving it so it compiles correctly.
