Chainbridge-Core was born from and built to improve the maintainability and modularity of the existing version of ChainBridge. The fundamental distinction between the two is that Chainbridge-Core is more of a framework rather than a stand-alone application.
ย
Project still in deep beta
ย
Refer to the installation guide for assistance with installing the ChainBridge binary.
Since ChainBridge-Core is a library it will require writing some code to get it running.
You can find some examples here.
The deployment scripts of this version uses the V2.1.3 solidity scripts from https://github.com/ChainSafe/sygma-solidity/tree/v2.1.3
ย
This section allows developers with a way to quickly and with minimal effort stand-up a local development environment in order to test out functionality of the ChainBridge.
The example developer setup can be run with the make example
command which will create a 3 relayer setup with 2 EVM networks with already preconfigured ERC20, ERC721 and Generic handlers and appropriate assets.
^ this command will execute a shell script that contains instructions for running two EVM chains via Docker (docker-compose
). Note: this entire process will likely take a few minutes to run.
ย
You can also review our Local Setup Guide for a more detailed example of setting up a local development environment manually.

Chainbridge-core is a open project and welcomes contributions of all kinds: code, docs, and more. If you wish to submit more complex changes, please check up with the core devs first on our Discord Server (look for CHAINBRIDGE category) or submit an issue on the repo to ensure those changes are in line with the general philoshophy of the project or get some early feedback.
When implementing a change:
- Adhere to the standard Go formatting guidelines, e.g. Effective Go. Run
go fmt
. - Stick to the idioms and patterns used in the codebase. Familiar-looking code has a higher chance of being accepted than eerie code. Pay attention to commonly used variable and parameter names, avoidance of naked returns, error handling patterns, etc.
- Comments: follow the advice on the Commentary section of Effective Go.
- Minimize code churn. Modify only what is strictly necessary. Well-encapsulated changesets will get a quicker response from maintainers.
- Lint your code with
golangci-lint
(CI will reject your PR if unlinted). - Add tests.
- Title the PR in a meaningful way and describe the rationale and the thought process in the PR description.
- Write clean, thoughtful, and detailed commit messages.
If change entails an update that needs to be documented, please submit a PR to chainbridge-docs repo.
Fork the repository, make changes and open a PR to the main
branch of the repo. Pull requests must be cleanly rebased on top of main
and changes require at least 2 PR approvals for them to be merged.
A great way to contribute to the project is to send a detailed report when you encounter an issue. We always appreciate a well-written, thorough bug report, and will thank you for it!
When reporting issues, always include:
- chainbridge-core version
- modules used
- logs (don't forget to remove sensitive data)
- tx hashes related to issue (if applicable)
- steps required to reproduce the problem
Putting large logs into a gist will be appreciated.
