gas-oracle

This service is responsible for sending transactions to the Sequencer to update the L2 gas price over time. It consists of a set of functions found in the gasprices package that define the parameters of how the gas prices are updated and then the oracle package is responsible for observing the Sequencer over time and send transactions that actually do update the gas prices.

Generating the Bindings

Note: this only needs to happen if the ABI of the OVM_GasPriceOracle is updated.

This project uses abigen to automatically create smart contract bindings in Go. To generate the bindings, be sure that the latest ABI and bytecode are committed into the repository in the abis directory.

Use the following command to generate the bindings:

$ make binding

Be sure to use abigen built with the same version of go-ethereum as what is in the go.mod file.

Building the service

The service can be built with the Makefile. A binary will be produced called the gas-oracle.

$ make gas-oracle

Running the service

Use the --help flag when running the gas-oracle to see it's configuration options.
