Smart contracts for Augur, a decentralized prediction market platform on the Ethereum blockchain.
Quick Setup
If you just want to clone the repo and quickly have a local proof of authority network running with the contracts deployed then you can just clone the repo and run:
docker run -it -p 8545:8545 -p 8546:8546 augurproject/dev-node-geth:v1.9.9
yarn deploy:local
- Geth HTTP RPC will be available on localhost port
8545
. - An abundant supply of ETH is available using the private key
0xfae42052f82bed612a724fec3632f325f377120592c75bb78adfcceae6470c5a
. - The log output will let you know what the address of the various Augur contracts are.
Installation
You need system-wide installations of Python 3.6, Node.js 10+, and Solidity 0.5.15. (Or Docker; see below.) Install the dependencies:
yarn
pip install -r requirements.txt
Note: on macOS, you'll need to use virtualenv or homebrew Python to work around System Integrity Protection. To do this using virtualenv, run:
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
python3 -m pip install pytest
Deployment
Solidity contract deployment is handled by ContractDeployer.ts
and the wrapper programs located in source/deployment
.
Main Code
- source/libraries/ContractCompiler.ts - All logic for compiling contracts, generating ABI
- source/libraries/ContractDeployer.ts - All logic for uploading, initializing, and whitelisting contracts, generating addresses and block number outputs.
Configuration
- source/libraries/CompilerConfiguration.ts
- source/libraries/DeployerConfiguration.ts
- source/libraries/NetworkConfiguration.ts -
Wrapper programs
- source/deployment/compileAndDeploy.ts - Compiles and Uploads contracts in one step. Useful for integration testing.
- source/deployment/compiledContracts.ts - Compile contract source (from source/contracts) and output contracts.json and abi.json. Outputs to output/contracts or CONTRACTS_OUTPUT_ROOT if defined.
- source/deployment/deployNetworks.ts - Application that can upload / upgrade all contracts, reads contracts from CONTRACTS_OUTPUT_ROOT, and uses a named network configuration to connect to an ethereum node. The resulting contract addresses are stored in output/contracts or ARTIFACT_OUTPUT_ROOT if defined.
Tests
The tests directory (augur-core/tests) contain tests and test fixtures to test the various functionalities present in Augur, including trading, reporting, and wcl tests.
- conftest.py -- contains the class ContractFixture, which deals with caching compiled contracts, signatures, etc. as well as resetting the blockchain before each test.
- delegation_sandbox.py -- tests the delegator contract.
- sandbox.py -- used for testing miscellaneous Solidity behaviors
- reporting -- contains tests for reporting purposes.
- trading -- contains tests for trading purposes.
- libraries -- tests for the libraries we use. Include Token tests, math, and various utility contracts
- solidity_test_helpers -- small contracts to help run tests.
- test_legacyRep.py -- tests for legacyRepToken's functionalities.
- utils.py -- contains useful functions for testing, such as conversion between different data types.
- wcl-in-python.py -- contains functions for making and taking various types of bids.
- wcl.txt -- explains tests for the various situations when filling a bid and filling an ask.
Use pytest to run Augur's test suite:
python3 -m pytest tests
This executes all the tests. To run a test individually, run the following:
python3 -m pytest tests::'name_of_test'
When writing tests, it is highly recommended to make use of the ContractFixtures class for "placeholder" variables. Python's unit testing framework comes handy here; encapsulate tests within functions that start with "test_", and use assert
statements when testing for certain values. Parameterized tests are recommended as well to test various possibilities and edge cases.
Coverage Report
To generate a coverage report simply run the command:
yarn test:coverage
The results will be displayed on the command line and a much richer HTML output will be generated in the coverage
folder of the project.
Make sure you actually have enough memory to run the command above. The coverage tool being used will pull a massive file into memory to generate the report and will fail with an OOM exception if not enough is available. Since tests take about 40 minutes to run with coverage enabled this will be a sad event.
Docker
augur-core can optionally be built, run, and tested using Docker. A number of Docker commands are included as npm scripts, which map to the non-Dockerized versions where this makes sense. Docker commands beginning with docker:run
execute the command within the Docker image. Docker commands without run
(e.g. docker:test
) first build the image, then execute docker:run:<command>
.
Build
npm run docker:build
Test
# With a pre-built image
npm run docker:run:test:unit:all
# Build and run all unit tests and integration tests
npm run docker:test
# Build and run just integration tests (using Geth)
npm run docker:run:test:integration:geth
# Build and run just integration tests (using Parity)
npm run docker:run:test:integration:parity
For quicker iteration on integration tests follow the instructions here to run tests locally against a node running in docker:

Source code organization
Augur's smart contracts are organized into four folders:
source/contracts/factories
: Constructors for universes, markets, dispute windows, etc.source/contracts/libraries
: Data structures used elsewhere in the source code.source/contracts/reporting
: Creation and manipulation of universes, markets, dispute windows, and reporting-related tokens.source/contracts/trading
: Functions to create, view, and fill orders, to issue and close out complete sets of shares, and for traders to claim proceeds after markets are closed.

Terminology
EVM numbers are always integers
There are no floating-point numbers in the EVM, only integers. Therefore, Ether and Reputation values in contracts are always represented in units of wei (i.e., indivisible units of 10^-18 Ether or 10^-18 Reputation).
