# MEV Bot Application Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
The MEV Bot is a Go application that monitors the Arbitrum sequencer for swap opportunities and executes arbitrage strategies to capture Maximal Extractable Value (MEV). The application provides two main modes of operation: continuous monitoring and one-time scanning.
|
||||
|
||||
## Command Line Interface
|
||||
|
||||
The application uses the `urfave/cli/v2` library for command line parsing. It supports the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
### `start` - Start the MEV Bot
|
||||
|
||||
Starts the MEV bot in continuous monitoring mode. The bot will:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Connect to the Arbitrum network
|
||||
2. Monitor the sequencer for Uniswap V3 swap events
|
||||
3. Detect arbitrage opportunities
|
||||
4. Execute profitable trades
|
||||
5. Log statistics and performance metrics
|
||||
|
||||
Usage:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./mev-bot start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### `scan` - Scan for Opportunities
|
||||
|
||||
Performs a one-time scan for arbitrage opportunities without executing trades. This mode is useful for:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Testing the detection algorithms
|
||||
2. Analyzing market conditions
|
||||
3. Validating configuration parameters
|
||||
|
||||
Usage:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./mev-bot scan
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Application Flow
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Configuration Loading
|
||||
|
||||
The application loads configuration from YAML files in the following priority order:
|
||||
1. `config/arbitrum_production.yaml` (if exists)
|
||||
2. `config/local.yaml` (if exists)
|
||||
3. `config/config.yaml` (default)
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Environment Validation
|
||||
|
||||
Before connecting to the network, the application validates:
|
||||
- RPC endpoint URL format and security
|
||||
- Required environment variables
|
||||
- Network connectivity
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Component Initialization
|
||||
|
||||
The application initializes the following components:
|
||||
- **Logger** - Structured logging system
|
||||
- **Metrics Collector** - Performance metrics collection
|
||||
- **Ethereum Client** - Connection to Arbitrum network
|
||||
- **Key Manager** - Secure key management
|
||||
- **Arbitrage Database** - SQLite database for persistence
|
||||
- **Arbitrage Service** - Core arbitrage detection and execution engine
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Service Startup
|
||||
|
||||
The arbitrage service is started with:
|
||||
- Blockchain monitoring
|
||||
- Statistics collection
|
||||
- Market data synchronization
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Operation Mode
|
||||
|
||||
#### Continuous Mode (`start`)
|
||||
- Runs indefinitely until interrupted
|
||||
- Monitors for swap events in real-time
|
||||
- Executes profitable arbitrage opportunities
|
||||
- Updates statistics periodically
|
||||
- Handles graceful shutdown on interrupt signals
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scan Mode (`scan`)
|
||||
- Runs for a fixed duration (30 seconds)
|
||||
- Detects arbitrage opportunities without execution
|
||||
- Reports findings to console and logs
|
||||
- Exits after scan completion
|
||||
|
||||
## Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
### Required Variables
|
||||
|
||||
1. **MEV_BOT_ENCRYPTION_KEY** - Encryption key for secure key management
|
||||
- Must be set for both modes
|
||||
- Should be a strong, randomly generated key
|
||||
|
||||
### Optional Variables
|
||||
|
||||
1. **MEV_BOT_KEYSTORE_PATH** - Path to keystore directory (default: "keystore")
|
||||
2. **MEV_BOT_AUDIT_LOG** - Path to audit log file (default: "logs/audit.log")
|
||||
3. **MEV_BOT_BACKUP_PATH** - Path to backup directory (default: "backups")
|
||||
4. **MEV_BOT_ALLOW_LOCALHOST** - Allow localhost RPC endpoints (default: false)
|
||||
5. **METRICS_ENABLED** - Enable metrics server (default: false)
|
||||
6. **METRICS_PORT** - Port for metrics server (default: "9090")
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Features
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Management
|
||||
- Encrypted storage of private keys
|
||||
- Key rotation policies
|
||||
- Rate limiting for transaction signing
|
||||
- Session timeout mechanisms
|
||||
- Audit logging for all key operations
|
||||
|
||||
### RPC Endpoint Validation
|
||||
- URL format validation
|
||||
- Scheme validation (http, https, ws, wss)
|
||||
- Hostname validation
|
||||
- localhost restriction in production
|
||||
|
||||
### Secure Operations
|
||||
- All sensitive operations require encryption key
|
||||
- No plaintext key storage
|
||||
- Secure memory handling
|
||||
|
||||
## Logging and Monitoring
|
||||
|
||||
### Log Levels
|
||||
- **Debug** - Detailed debugging information
|
||||
- **Info** - General operational information
|
||||
- **Warn** - Warning conditions
|
||||
- **Error** - Error conditions
|
||||
|
||||
### Metrics Collection
|
||||
When enabled, the application exposes metrics via HTTP server:
|
||||
- Performance metrics
|
||||
- Arbitrage statistics
|
||||
- Resource utilization
|
||||
|
||||
### Statistics
|
||||
The application tracks and reports:
|
||||
- Opportunities detected
|
||||
- Executions attempted
|
||||
- Successful executions
|
||||
- Total profit realized
|
||||
- Gas costs incurred
|
||||
|
||||
## Graceful Shutdown
|
||||
|
||||
The application handles shutdown signals (SIGINT, SIGTERM) gracefully:
|
||||
1. Stops blockchain monitoring
|
||||
2. Waits for ongoing operations to complete
|
||||
3. Flushes logs and metrics
|
||||
4. Reports final statistics
|
||||
5. Cleans up resources
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Common Issues
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Missing Encryption Key**
|
||||
- Error: "MEV_BOT_ENCRYPTION_KEY environment variable is required"
|
||||
- Solution: Set the encryption key environment variable
|
||||
|
||||
2. **RPC Connection Failure**
|
||||
- Error: "failed to connect to Ethereum client"
|
||||
- Solution: Verify RPC endpoint URL and network connectivity
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Configuration Errors**
|
||||
- Error: "failed to load config"
|
||||
- Solution: Check configuration file format and required fields
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Permission Issues**
|
||||
- Error: File access denied
|
||||
- Solution: Verify file permissions and user privileges
|
||||
|
||||
### Log Analysis
|
||||
- Check INFO level logs for operational status
|
||||
- Check WARN level logs for potential issues
|
||||
- Check ERROR level logs for failures
|
||||
- Use DEBUG level for detailed troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
### Security
|
||||

||||
- Tune configuration parameters for your environment
|
||||
- Use appropriate RPC endpoint with sufficient rate limits
|
||||
- Regularly backup database and keystore
|
||||
|
||||
### Operations
|
||||
- Monitor logs for errors and warnings
|
||||
