Build a dApp Using Waku and Vue.js

Build a dApp Using Waku and Vue.js

Did you know that far beyond being a mere industry buzzword, decentralised communication represents a strategic response to the vulnerabilities inherent in centralised systems? It prioritises privacy, security, and censorship resistance, making it an indispensable component in web developers' toolkits.

Traditional centralised communication systems have long struggled with censorship, single points of failure, and privacy concerns. With the rise of Web 3 and blockchain technology, decentralised communication solutions like Waku are emerging as a promising alternative. Waku offers a peer-to-peer messaging system that is resilient to censorship, scalable, and secure, making it an ideal choice for dApp developers looking to build next-generation applications.

This article will guide you on how to build a decentralised application (dApp) using Waku, an uncompromising decentralised communication protocol, and Vue.js, a popular JavaScript framework for building user interfaces. Before diving into the hands-on development aspects of this article, it is recommended that you have a basic understanding of Vue.js, familiarity with Tailwind CSS for UI styling, and a grasp of web3.js for seamless wallet integration.

If these technologies are new to you, no problem – this guide is meticulously created for all levels of expertise, providing step-by-step guidance at every level.

Understanding Waku

Waku is a collection of decentralised peer-to-peer messaging protocols that enable secure and censorship-resistant communication over a decentralised network. Its features include end-to-end encryption, persistent/ephemeral messaging, and efficient peer discovery, providing a foundation for secure and reliable communication.

Waku operates within a peer-to-peer topology, creating a decentralised network that thwarts censorship and provides surveillance resistance. Its design supports scalability, with the ability to accommodate millions of users. It is designed to be the successor of Whisper, the messaging layer of the Ethereum blockchain peer-to-peer protocol suite, and outperforms it in scalability and resource efficiency.

Waku's architecture is underpinned by three distinct network interaction domains: gossip, discovery, and request/response. Although Waku is a cohesive whole in terms of capabilities, it encompasses three primary clients designed for different environments and several SDKs, including Rust, React Native, Kotlin, and Swift.

  1. nwaku: The reference implementation in Nim.
  2. go-waku: Tailored for native integration with Golang applications.
  3. js-waku: A JavaScript implementation optimized for browser environments.

Waku consists of multiple protocols, each serving a specific function within the network. They include, but are not limited to:

  • Waku Relay: The backbone of the Waku network, employing a pub/sub approach to peer-to-peer messaging. Emphasizes privacy, censorship resistance, and security, extending the libp2p GossipSub protocol.
  • Waku Filter: A lightweight version of the relay protocol designed for resource-restricted devices. Allows light nodes to receive specific messages of interest from full nodes.
  • Waku Store: Facilitates message retrieval for devices unable to participate in the Waku Relay network while offline.
  • Waku Light Push: A request/response protocol enabling nodes with short connection windows or limited bandwidth to publish messages to the Waku network.

Understanding Waku's architecture and protocols lays the groundwork for proceeding into practical implementations.

Use cases of Waku

Waku's versatile architecture and capabilities find relevance in a myriad of real-world scenarios where secure and decentralised communication is paramount. Whether it's facilitating private conversations between users, enabling data exchange between devices, or supporting communication among nodes within a network, Waku emerges as a robust solution.

Privacy-focused communication

Waku's emphasis on privacy makes it an ideal choice for scenarios where safeguarding user information is of utmost importance. In applications dealing with sensitive data or confidential conversations, Waku's end-to-end encryption and decentralised architecture provide a secure environment, mitigating the risks associated with centralised communication platforms.

Censorship-resistant messaging

Waku offers a beacon of hope for unrestricted communication in regions where internet censorship is prevalent. Its peer-to-peer topology prevents centralised authorities from controlling or monitoring messaging traffic, ensuring that users can communicate freely without fear of censorship. This makes Waku particularly valuable in promoting freedom of expression and supporting open communication channels.

Use in dApps for decentralised communication

Decentralised applications (DApps) form a burgeoning ecosystem where Waku can play a pivotal role. Waku's integration into dApps enhances communication functionalities, enabling real-time interactions among users while maintaining the decentralised ethos. This proves particularly valuable in scenarios such as collaborative platforms, social networks, or any application where user engagement and communication are central components.

By exploring the features and capabilities of Waku, it becomes evident that Waku's applicability extends beyond theoretical advantages, finding practical application in diverse areas.

Building a dApp with Waku and Vue.js

Polling systems often face challenges related to centralisation, privacy concerns, and susceptibility to manipulation. By integrating Waku and Vue.js, we can tackle these challenges, creating a decentralised voting poll application that leverages the power of peer-to-peer communication.

Here is the entire source code of my voting poll app on GitHub: https://github.com/wolz-CODElife/waku-vue-poll.git and the live application is hosted on Vercel.

Dev tools I used?

  • Vite: To bootstrap the Vue3 application with the Tailwind template.
  • Vue 3: To build the user interface.
  • TypeScript: For type safety and potential for catching errors during compiling.
  • Tailwind CSS: For styling the user interface.
  • Web3.js: For implementing wallet connect.
  • Node Polyfill Webpack Plugin: For providing polyfills necessary for emitting Web3.js events in the browser. Since Vue3 uses webpack v5, where polyfill Node core modules were removed.
  • Crypto Hash: For hashing user address, where wallet is not available.
  • Protobufjs: For serializing message data sent through Waku.
  • @waku/sdk: For accessing Waku node methods in JavaScript.

Setting up the development environment

To set up your development environment, ensure you have Node v18+ then open a new terminal in your working directory and run the following command:

npm create vite@latest

Which will begin a dialogue in the terminal, you can choose options that work for you, or use the same options as I used:

Need to install the following packages:
  [email protected]
Ok to proceed? (y) y
✔ Project name: … waku-poll-app
✔ Select a framework: › Vue
✔ Select a variant: › TypeScript

This should create a new Vue application in your working directory, navigate to the app, install the default dependencies and start the app using the following command:

cd waku-poll-app
npm install
npm run dev

Next, we want to create a file structure that allows us to componentize the various parts of the app. Your src path should have a file structure like this:

alt_text

As we proceed we will update files with the necessary code, as for assets/3dpoll.jpg feel free to replace it with any image you see fit for your landing page.

Setting up Tailwind in Vue.js

To build our UI, we need to first install and configure Tailwind CSS in Vue 3. You can follow the official guide on Setting up Tailwind CSS.

Configuring routes

To create multiple pages/routes in the app, we have to install Vue Router by running the following command in the terminal:

npm install --save vue-router@next 
# Install the latest version

In this app, we just need two routes: “Home” and “Polls” which we have inside the src/views folder. These routes will contain the Layout of each page, and then we can define the routes in the src/router/index.ts file by using the following code:

import { createRouter, createWebHistory, RouteRecordRaw } from 'vue-router'
import Home from '@/views/Home.vue'

const routes: Array<RouteRecordRaw> = [
  {
    path: '/',
    name: 'Home',
    component: Home,
  },
  {
    path: '/polls',
    name: 'Polls',

    component: () => import('../views/Polls.vue'),
  }
]

const router = createRouter({
  history: createWebHistory(),
  routes,
})

export default router

In the code snippet above, a Vue.js router configuration is defined. We import the necessary functions and types from 'vue-router' and the Home component from @/views/Home.vue.

The routes array contains route definitions for the Home and Polls components. The router is created using createRouter and createWebHistory functions, and the routes we defined earlier.

The component: () => import('../views/Polls.vue') is used to dynamically import the 'Polls.vue' component. This is a feature provided by Vue.js to asynchronously load the component when it's needed, which can help improve initial page load performance by splitting the code into smaller chunks.

Finally, the router is exported so we can access it in “main.ts”.

Next, we register router to the Vue app by including it in the “main.ts” file like this:

// main.ts or main.js
import { createApp } from 'vue';
import App from './App.vue';
import './css/index.css'

import router from './router'

createApp(App).use(router).mount('#app')

Next, we will create a Layout for our application with the following inside “App.vue”:

<script lang="ts">
</script>


<template>
  <div class="flex flex-col h-screen justify-between">
    <router-view class="container max-w-8xl mx-auto mb-auto px-4" />
  </div>
</template>

<style>
#app {
  font-family: Avenir, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
  -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
  -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
  color: #2c3e50;
}
</style>

In the code above, we use router-view to dynamically load the components of the current route into the DOM.

Installing Waku and its dependencies

To get started with Waku in our Vue 3 application, we need to install @waku/sdk which is a TypeScript implementation of the Waku protocol designed for web browser environments.

To install @waku.sdk run the following command in the terminal:

npm install @waku/sdk

It is also recommended to create a message structure for your app, typically Waku developers use Protocol Buffers for consistency, interoperability, compatibility and payload size. To install protobufjs, run the following command in the terminal:

npm install protobufjs

Implementing Waku logic

The application runs on two fundamental logic, which are the wallet connect and Waku communication integrations. We will create two composables “waku.ts” and “client.ts” inside src/composables.

“waku.ts” contains all the methods our Vue app needs to interact with the Waku protocol and transmit messages(polls) across users on the app. Inside this file, you should have the following code:

import { ref } from 'vue';
import protobuf, { Message } from 'protobufjs';
import {
    createLightNode,
    waitForRemotePeer,
    createDecoder,
    createEncoder,
    Protocols,
    IFilterSubscription,
} from '@waku/sdk';

interface PollOption {
    value: string;
    votes: number;
}

interface PollMessage {
    question: string;
    options: { [key: string]: PollOption };
}

interface Poll {
    msgid: string;
    timestamp: string;
    sender: string;
    message: PollMessage;
    // other properties...
}


export const status = ref<string>('connecting...');
export const sender = ref(localStorage.getItem('senderWalletAddress') ?? '');
export const polls = ref<Poll[]>(JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('polls') ?? '[]'));


export const wakuNode = await createLightNode({
    defaultBootstrap: true,
});

export const waitForRemotePeers = async () => {
    // Wait for a successful peer connection
    await waitForRemotePeer(wakuNode, [
        Protocols.LightPush,
        Protocols.Filter,
    ]);
}

// Choose a content topic
export const contentTopic = '/waku-vue-poll/1/polls/proto';

// message encoder and decoder
export const encoder = createEncoder({ contentTopic, ephemeral: true });
export const decoder = createDecoder(contentTopic);

// Message structure with Protobuf
export const PollQuestionWakuMessage = new protobuf.Type('PollQuestion')
    .add(new protobuf.Field('timestamp', 1, 'string'))
    .add(new protobuf.Field('msgid', 2, 'string'))
    .add(new protobuf.Field('sender', 3, 'string'))
    .add(new protobuf.Field('message', 4, 'string'));

export const serializeMessage = (protoMessage: Message) => {
    return PollQuestionWakuMessage.encode(protoMessage).finish()
}

export function useWaku() {

    async function start() {
        status.value = 'connecting'        
        try {
            await wakuNode?.start().then(() => {
                if (wakuNode.isStarted()) return waitForRemotePeers()
            }).then(() => {
                return wakuNode.connectionManager.getPeersByDiscovery()
            }).then((data:any) => {
                if (
                    wakuNode.libp2p.getConnections().length ||
                    data.CONNECTED.bootstrap.length ||
                    data.CONNECTED['peer-exchange'].length
                ) {
                    subscribe()
                    status.value = "connected"
                }
            })
        }
        catch (error) {
            console.error('Error initializing Waku Light Node:', error);
            status.value = 'not connected';
        }
    }

    async function stop() {
        unsubscribe();
        wakuNode.stop()
        status.value = 'not conencted';
    }
    let subscription = {} as IFilterSubscription

    async function subscribe() {
        if (!wakuNode || status.value !== 'connected') await start();
        try {
          subscription = await wakuNode?.filter?.createSubscription();
          await subscription.subscribe([decoder], (wakuMessage) => {
            const messageObj = PollQuestionWakuMessage.decode(wakuMessage.payload).toJSON();
            const result: Poll = {
                timestamp: messageObj.timestamp,
                msgid: messageObj.msgid,
                sender: messageObj.sender,
                message: JSON.parse(messageObj.message ?? '{}')
            };
            handleSubscriptionResult(result);
          });
        } catch (error) {
          console.error('Error subscribing to Content Topic:', error);
        }
      }

      function handleSubscriptionResult(result:Poll) {
        const msgid = result.msgid;
        const existingPollIndex = polls.value.findIndex(poll => poll.msgid === msgid);

        if (existingPollIndex !== -1) {
          // Update the existing poll
          polls.value.splice(existingPollIndex, 1, result);
        } else {
          // Add the new poll to the array
          polls.value.unshift(result);
        }

        if (polls.value.length > 0) {
            localStorage.setItem('polls', JSON.stringify(polls.value));
        }
      }

    async function unsubscribe() {
        subscription.unsubscribe([contentTopic])
    }

    async function publish(sender: string, message: string, timestamp: string = new Date().toUTCString(), msgid: string = Date.now() + Math.floor(Math.random() * 90000).toString()) {    
        if (!wakuNode || status.value !== 'connected') await start()

        try {
            const protoData = PollQuestionWakuMessage.create({
                timestamp: timestamp,
                msgid: msgid,
                sender: sender,
                message: message
            })

            return wakuNode.lightPush.send(encoder, { payload: serializeMessage(protoData) })
        }
        catch (error) {
            console.error('Error publishing to Content Topic:', error);
        }
    }

    return {
        wakuNode,
        status,
        sender,
        polls,
        start,
        stop,
        subscribe,
        unsubscribe,
        publish,
    };
}

The above code enables interaction with the Waku network, enabling the creation and participation in polls within a Vue application.

Firstly, we import necessary functions and define data structure using TypeScript interfaces to set a standard for PollOption, PollMessage and Poll. These structures represent the questions and options available in a poll and the overall structure of a poll, respectively.

Reactive variables (status, sender, and polls) are defined to keep track of the connection status, the sender's information, and the list of polls. These variables will be necessary for updating the Vue application in response to changes in the Waku network.

Notice that we didn’t make WakuNode or any variable interacting with the Waku network directly reactive. As this will trigger issue #1746 due to Waku nodes being too complex for Vue mechanisms to handle, so we have to keep the WakuNode instance outside Vue’s reactive scope.

BTW, this took me almost 3 months to figure out 😭

The WakuNode connection is established using the createLightNode function, optimizing resource usage by creating a Waku light node. This node connects to the Waku network and waits for peers to join using the LightPush and Filter Protocols. We defined a specific Content Topic for this app to categorize messages and should have this format, /{application-name}/{version}/{content-topic-name}/{encoding}, make sure to replace WAKU_CONTENT_TOPIC with your actual Content Topic. and Protobuf is utilized for encoding and decoding messages efficiently to suit the PollQuestionWakuMessage message structure.

After connecting to the Waku network, interaction follows. We created a function called useWaku() that encapsulates and returns all the variables and methods needed to interact with Waku across the entire application.

First, we have the start() function that initiates the WakuNode connection, waits for peers to connect and subscribes to the chosen content topic, before updating the user’s status to status.value = "connected".

Next, we have stop() function that unsubscribes from the Content Topic and stops the WakuNode, before updating the user’s status to status.value = 'not conencted'.

Next, we have the subscribe() function that creates a subscription to the Content Topic using the Waku Filter, receives incoming poll messages, decodes them and updates the polls list. The handleSubscriptionResult function decodes incoming poll messages, checks for duplicates, and updates the list of polls accordingly.

Next, we have the unsubscribe() function that disconnects the app from the Content Topic.

Finally, the publish() function accepts the necessary parameters to create a new poll message and send the encoded poll message to the Waku network using the LightPush protocol.

Implement Wallet Connect logic

The sender variable in the “waku.ts” composable stores the wallet address of the connected wallet. For us to implement wallet connect, we need to first install “Web3.js” by running the following command in the terminal:

npm install web3

Since Vue 3 uses webpack v5, we need to install Node Polyfill Webpack Plugin to provide the polyfills necessary for emitting Web3.js events in the browser. Run the following command in the terminal to install the Node Polyfill Webpack Plugin:

npm i node-polyfill-webpack-plugin

Then include it in the “vite.config.ts” so that your “vite.config.ts” looks like this:

import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue';
import path from 'path';

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [vue()],
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      '@/': `${path.resolve(__dirname, 'src')}/`,
    },
  },
  optimizeDeps: {
    include: ['node-polyfill-webpack-plugin'],
  },
  esbuild: {
    supported: {
      'top-level-await': true
    }
  }
});

You will notice we are also supporting top-level-await, this is because we are instantiating WakuNode at a top-level and the Vite build doesn’t support this.

Inside the “client.ts” we will have the following code:

import Web3 from 'web3';
import { useWaku } from './waku';
import { sha256 } from 'crypto-hash';

declare global {
    interface Window {
        ethereum: any;
        web3: any
    }
}

const waku = useWaku()
export const generateUniqueID = () => {
    const userAgentHash = sha256(navigator.userAgent + Math.floor(Math.random() * 90000));
  return userAgentHash;
};

// Validate Ethereum Address
export const validateEthereumAddress = (address:any) => {
    return /^(0x)?[0-9a-fA-F]{40}$/.test(address);
}

export function useWalletConnect() {
    // Improved connectWallet Function
    async function connectWallet() {
        if (window.ethereum) {
            try {
                const accounts = await window.ethereum.request({ method: 'eth_requestAccounts' });
                window.web3 = new Web3(window.ethereum);

                if (accounts.length > 0 && validateEthereumAddress(accounts[0])) {
                    const walletAddress = accounts[0];
                    waku.sender.value = walletAddress;
                    localStorage.setItem('senderWalletAddress', walletAddress);
                } else {
                    console.error('Invalid Ethereum address detected. Generating fallback ID.');
                    generateUniqueID().then((hashID) => {
                        const newHash = 'abcdef012345'[Math.floor(Math.random() * 12)] + "x" + hashID.slice(-20);
                        waku.sender.value = newHash;
                        localStorage.setItem('senderWalletAddress', newHash);
                    });
                }

                await waku.start();
            } catch (error) {
                console.error('Error connecting wallet:', error);
            }
        } else {
            console.log('No Ethereum wallet detected.');
        }
    }


    async function disconnectWallet() {
        localStorage.removeItem('senderWalletAddress');
        localStorage.removeItem('polls');
        // stop waku's light node
        await waku.wakuNode.stop();
        waku.stop()
        waku.sender.value = ""
        waku.status.value = "connecting..."
        waku.polls.value = []
    }
    async function signMessage(msgid: string, stringifiedMessage:string) {
        const messageToSign = `Message ID: ${msgid}, Content: ${stringifiedMessage}`;
        let signature;
        try {
            signature = await window.ethereum.request({
                method: 'personal_sign',
                params: [messageToSign, waku.sender.value],
            });
            return signature
        } catch (signError) {
            console.error('Error signing the message:', signError);
            return;
        }
    }

    return {
        connectWallet,
        disconnectWallet,
        signMessage
    };
}

The above code enables users to connect their crypto wallet to the app as a means of identification. In this scenario, we used the wallet address as the sender of the poll.

However, some users may not have wallets and we don’t want to limit the application to only users that have crypto wallets. To tackle this, we created the generateUniqueID() function to form a random hash from the navigator.userAgent address of the user’s browser. Then we store the sender’s address in localStorage as “'senderWalletAddress'”.

We also created a disconnectWallet() function to remove the wallet address from localStorage and stop the WakuNode running.

To claim ownership of the polls, users have to sign each poll message using their wallet, for this the signMessage function is executed.

The useWalletConnect composable encapsulates and returns the connectWallet, disconnectWallet and signMessage functions so that they are accessible across the application.

Building the UI components

Now that we have our logic, we can build the UI to utilize the data and methods in our composables.

We have 3 major components in this app, the NavBar, Home and Polls. Feel free to create your user interface or use mine:

  • NavBar: src/components/NavBar.vue
  • Home: src/views/Home.vue
  • Polls: src/views/.vue

Creating polls

If you go through my NavBar component code, you will find that we have a ref called poll:

const poll = ref<Poll>({
  question: "",
  options: {
    a: { value: "", votes: 0},
    b: { value: "", votes: 0},
    c: { value: "", votes: 0},
    d: { value: "", votes: 0},
    e: { value: "", votes: 0}
  }
})

This ref is updated by the modal form, and on submit, we trigger the sendMessage function:

const sendMessage = () => {
  const stringifiedMessage = JSON.stringify(poll.value)
  const msgid = Date.now() + Math.floor(Math.random() * 90000).toString();
  const timestamp = new Date().toUTCString()

  // sign message
  signMessage(msgid, stringifiedMessage).then((signature) => {
    // send a message
    waku.publish(signature, stringifiedMessage, timestamp, msgid)

    // reset question state
    poll.value = {
      question: "",
      options: {
        a: { value: "", votes: 0},
        b: { value: "", votes: 0},
        c: { value: "", votes: 0},
        d: { value: "", votes: 0},
        e: { value: "", votes: 0}
      }
    }
    }
    onToggle()
    // redirect user to where the new poll is populated
    if (router.currentRoute.value.path !== "/polls") {
      router.push("/polls")
    }
  }).catch((error) => {
    console.error("Error sending message", error);
  })
}

In the above code, we stringify the poll data which includes the question, and options so that we can publish the poll as a message to Waku. Then we create a msgid and timestamp for the message, before using the user's wallet to sign the message. Once the message is signed, we call the waku.publish(waku.sender.value, stringifiedMessage) function to register the update for other users subscribing to the Content Topic.

Real-time voting and result polling

In the “Poll.vue” component, we have a handleVote() function:

const handleVote = async (msgid: string, selectedOption: string | number) => {
  loading.value = true
  try {
    // Find the selected poll in the polls array
    let selectedPollIndex = waku.polls.value.findIndex((poll) => poll.msgid === msgid);

    if (selectedPollIndex !== -1) {
      // Update the vote count before publishing
      waku.polls.value[selectedPollIndex].message.options[selectedOption].votes += 1;

      // Create a reactive copy to trigger reactivity
      const reactiveCopy = reactive({ ...waku.polls.value[selectedPollIndex] });

      // Publish the updated poll

      const stringifiedMessage = JSON.stringify(reactiveCopy.message);

      await waku.publish(reactiveCopy.sender , stringifiedMessage, reactiveCopy.timestamp, msgid);

      // Store the msgid in local storage
      votedPolls.value.push(msgid);
      localStorage.setItem('votedPolls', JSON.stringify(votedPolls.value));
    }
    loading.value = false
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error in handleVote:', error);
  }
};

This function is triggered when the radio input of any option is clicked. This function collected the msgid and the selectedOption as parameters. Then call the subscribe() function to fetch the latest version of the polls, before updating the vote counts of an option in the poll that has the msgid.

We created a reactive copy of the poll so that the vote count update will be reflected even if the state changes. Then we publish the reactive copy, which will send the updated poll results to all the users that are subscribed to the Content Topic of this app.

To track the polls a user has voted for, we store a “votePolls” array in the localStorage.

Feel free to play around with the functionality and optimize the performance to meet your application requirements.
