# Payout flow
|
|
|
|
This describes the sequence of events happening once a PR for an issue with a bounty was merged by repo maintainer.
|
|
|
|
### Quick info on transaction hashes
|
|
In the sequence described below, several types of hashes are used. SOB checks presence of different hashes on records in the `issues` table to decide which action to take on an issue and associated contract. These hashes are:
|
|
- `transaction_hash`: set when contract is deployed to the labeled issue
|
|
- `execute_hash`: set when PR for an issue with a bounty was merged
|
|
- `confirm_hash`: fetched from receipt from transaction invoked in previous step
|
|
- `payout_hash`: set when payout was confirmed via `Manage Payouts`
|
|
|
|
The event flow is given below. For the bounty to be paid, each issue has to go through the steps in given order.
|
|
|
|
### 1. PR closed and merged
|
|
- app receives notification via GitHub App webhook (endpoint: `/webhook-app`)
|
|
- `handle-claim` fn is invoked which will:
|
|
- save PR in the `pull_requests` DB table, where state=1 for merged PRs
|
|
- update issue in the DB with commit SHA, if PR was merged
|
|
|
|
Afterwards two interleaving sequences of actions come into play: scheduler threads and manual user interaction in the `Manage Payouts` tab.
|
|
|
|
### 2. `self-sign-bounty` scheduler thread
|
|
- input query name: `pending-bounties`. This selects pending bounties (where `execute_hash` is nil and `commit_sha` is set)
|
|
- execute payout transactions
|
|
- store `execute_hash` and `winner_login` in `issues` DB table
|
|
- update GitHub comment to "Pending maintainer confirmation"
|
|
### 3. `update-confirm-hash` scheduler thread
|
|
- input query name: `pending-payouts`. This selects bounties with `execute_hash` set and no `confirm_hash`
|
|
- fetch `confirm_hash` from transaction receipt
|
|
- store `confirm_hash` in `issues` DB table
|
|
|
|
### 4. Manage Payouts view
|
|
In order to confirm a payout, following conditions have to be met for an issue:
|
|
- it is merged
|
|
- not paid yet (meaning its `payout_hash` is nil)
|
|
- not being confirmed at the moment (`:confirming?` flag is true)
|
|
OR
|
|
- already confirmed by a scheduler thread(`confirm_hash` is not nil)
|
|
|
|
Note that `confirm_hash` issue field and confirmation action in the UI are different things, albeit identically named. In order to confirm a payout from the UI, `confirm_hash` has to be already set by scheduler thread (see above).
|
|
|
|
Payout confirmation action results in a `:confirm-payout` event. Its handler will
|
|
- use `confirm_hash` to construct transaction payload
|
|
- set `:confirming?` flag to `true`
|
|
- execute `confirmTransaction()` call
|
|
- pass transaction callback to `confirmTransaction()`. Once invoked, the callback will:
|
|
- get `payout_hash` passed as an argument
|
|
- dispatch `:save-payout-hash` event. Its handler will:
|
|
- POST to /api/user/bounty/%s/payout
|
|
- This will update `payout_hash` in `issues` DB table
|
|
- if POST is successful, dispatch `:payout-confirmed`
|
|
- `:payout-confirmed` will update `:confirmed?` to `true` and remove `:confirming?` flag
|
|
|
|
### 5. `update-payout-receipt` scheduler thread
|
|
- input query name: `confirmed-payouts`. This selects confirmed payouts (the ones that have `payout_hash` and do not have `payout_receipt` set)
|
|
- store `payout_receipt` in `issues` DB table
|
|
- and update GitHub comment to "Paid to:..."
