feat: Replace Ghostnet with Shadownet for Tezos and Etherlink testnets (#944)

EightRice · web-flow · commit 9098f7034918 · 2026-02-10T02:02:26.000+02:00
* feat: Replace Ghostnet with Shadownet for Tezos and Etherlink testnets

- Replace Tezos Ghostnet with Shadownet (RPC: rpc.shadownet.teztnets.com)
- Replace Etherlink Testnet with Etherlink Shadownet (chain ID: 127823)
- Update TzKT explorer links to shadownet.tzkt.io
- Update Etherlink explorer to shadownet.explorer.etherlink.com
- Update Firebase collection names for Shadownet
- Add custom chain definition for Etherlink Shadownet in wagmi config
- Update Beacon wallet config with custom network for Shadownet
- Fix useEthersProvider to handle undefined publicClient gracefully
- Update all tests and E2E specs

Note: Hasura indexer needs to be reconfigured to point to Shadownet.
See MIGRATION-GHOSTNET-TO-SHADOWNET.md for full migration checklist.

* feat: Upgrade Beacon SDK to 4.7.0 for native Shadownet support

- Upgrade @airgap/beacon-sdk and @airgap/beacon-types from 4.2.2 to 4.7.0
- Use NetworkType.SHADOWNET instead of NetworkType.CUSTOM
- Remove WalletConnect version pinning that conflicted with newer Beacon SDK
- Simplify wallet creation since Shadownet is now a first-class network type

This fixes Kukai wallet connection issues on Shadownet.

* fix: Update remaining testnet references to shadownet

- TxStatus.tsx: Update explorer URL to shadownet.explorer.etherlink.com
- stats/index.ts: Update Etherlink explorer API URL pattern
- web3provider.tsx: Use etherlinkShadownet instead of etherlinkTestnet

* Revert Etherlink testnet-&gt;shadownet changes (already done on other branch)

* fix: Pass network to requestPermissions to ensure wallet connects to Shadownet

The wallet was connecting to mainnet instead of shadownet because
requestPermissions() was called without a network parameter. This fix
explicitly passes the network config (including rpcUrl for shadownet)
to requestPermissions(), ensuring the wallet connects to the correct network.

* fix: Update Node.js version to 22.12.0 for jsdom compatibility

* fix: Update requestPermissions call for Beacon SDK 4.7.0 API

* chore: CI improvements and restore webpack cache

+# Migration: Tezos Ghostnet → Shadownet
+
+> **Note:** This file should be removed once the migration is complete and merged.
+
+## Overview
+
+Tezos is replacing Ghostnet with Shadownet as the long-term testnet. This document tracks what needs to change for Homebase to support Shadownet.
+
+Reference: https://teztnets.com/shadownet-about
+
+## Shadownet Technical Details
+
+- **RPC:** `https://rpc.shadownet.teztnets.com`
+- **Faucet:** `https://faucet.shadownet.teztnets.com`
+- **Network Name:** `TEZOS_SHADOWNET_2025-08-07T20:00:00Z`
+- **Activation Date:** 2025-08-07
+
+## External Service Compatibility
+
+| Service | Status | Endpoint |
+|---------|--------|----------|
+| TzKT API | ✅ Ready | `api.shadownet.tzkt.io` |
+| TzKT Explorer | ✅ Ready | `shadownet.tzkt.io` |
+| Shadownet Faucet | ✅ Ready | `faucet.shadownet.teztnets.com` |
+| SmartPy RPC | ❓ Unknown | May not support shadownet |
+| Beacon Wallet SDK | ✅ Ready | Upgraded to 4.7.0 with native `NetworkType.SHADOWNET` |
+| Better Call Dev | ❓ Unknown | May not support shadownet |
+
+---
+
+## Changes Required
+
+### 1. Frontend App (this repo)
+
+#### Files to modify:
+
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `src/services/beacon/utils.ts` | Replace `ghostnet` with `shadownet` in Network type, RPC nodes, colors, and wallet config |
+| `src/services/config/constants.ts` | Rename env key to `REACT_APP_RPC_NETWORK_SHADOWNET` |
+| `src/modules/common/Footer.tsx` | Update explorer link to `shadownet.tzkt.io` |
+| `src/modules/creator/state/context.tsx` | Update network checks from `ghostnet` to `shadownet` |
+| `src/services/tzprofiles/hooks/useProfileClaim.tsx` | Update network validation |
+| `.env` | Update env var name |
+
+### 2. Hasura/Indexer
+
+The Homebase indexer needs to be reconfigured:
+
+- [ ] Point indexer to shadownet RPC (`https://rpc.shadownet.teztnets.com`)
+- [ ] Reset/migrate database (shadownet is a new chain)
+- [ ] Redeploy Hasura instance
+- [ ] Update any hardcoded network references
+
+**Indexer endpoints:**
+- V1: `https://v3-homebase-indexer.tezos-homebase.io/v1/graphql`
+- V2: `https://v2-homebase-indexer.w3api.dev/v1/graphql`
+
+### 3. Smart Contracts
+
+All contracts must be **redeployed on Shadownet** (it's a completely new chain):
+
+- [ ] Token contracts (FA1.2/FA2)
+- [ ] BaseDAO contracts
+- [ ] Registry contracts
+- [ ] Metadata carrier contracts
+- [ ] DAO deployer service contracts
+
+### 4. Environment Variables
+
+```bash
+# Old
+REACT_APP_RPC_NETWORK_GHOSTNET=https://ghostnet.smartpy.io
+
+# New
+REACT_APP_RPC_NETWORK_SHADOWNET=https://rpc.shadownet.teztnets.com
+```
+
+---
+
+## Testing Checklist
+
+- [x] Get tez from shadownet faucet
+- [x] Test wallet connection with Temple/Kukai (Kukai works with Beacon SDK 4.7.0)
+- [x] Fix: Wallet was connecting to mainnet instead of shadownet (now passes network to `requestPermissions`)
+- [ ] Test token creation (on correct network)
+- [ ] Test DAO creation flow
+- [ ] Test staking
+- [ ] Test proposal creation
+- [ ] Test voting
+- [ ] Test proposal execution
+- [ ] Verify TzKT links work correctly
+- [ ] Verify indexer picks up new DAOs
+
+---
+
+## Migration Strategy
+
+**Approach: Replace ghostnet with shadownet**
+
+Since Ghostnet is being deprecated, we're replacing it entirely rather than adding shadownet alongside it. Users will lose access to existing ghostnet DAOs, but those would become inaccessible anyway once Ghostnet shuts down.
+
+---
+
+## Rollback Plan
+
+If issues arise:
+1. Revert this branch
+2. Re-enable ghostnet configuration
+3. Investigate and fix shadownet issues in a new branch
