Submit a Cosmwasm Governance Proposal

The following is a quick guide to provide a basic example on how submit a wasm binary proposal in Osmosis. This particular example will be with localOsmosis but it can also be used with testnet.

Localosmosis​

The easiest way to setup your localOsmosis is by downloading the automated installer. You can learn more about localOsmosis by reading the README in the official repo.

Run the following and choose option #3.

curl -sL https://get.osmosis.zone/install > i.py && python3 i.py

Start localOsmosis​

Inside a separate bash window start your localOsmosis which was installed in ~/localosmosis

cd ~/localosmosis
docker-compose up

You will start seeing LocalOsmosis block activity in your terminal. Keep LocalOsmosis running while you perform the next steps in a new terminal window.

tip

If you had previously installed localOsmosis, it's a good idea to start fresh and delete ~/localosmosis rm -rf ~/localosmosis before installing it again.

Download sample contract​

curl -s -L -O https://github.com/CosmWasm/cw-plus/releases/download/v0.12.1/cw20_base.wasm

Define variables​

CHAIN_ID=localosmosis
CONTRACT=cw20_base

Define proposal ID​

We cannot really do this programmatically. Proposal 1 will come out after submitting it for the first time on a new chain. You can always update this manually when testing multiple times on the same state.

PROPOSAL=1

Create local wallet from seed​

Note that this seed is already part of localOsmosis as shown here.

echo "satisfy adjust timber high purchase tuition stool faith fine install that you unaware feed domain license impose boss human eager hat rent enjoy dawn" | osmosisd keys add validator --keyring-backend test --recover
VAL=$(osmosisd keys show -a validator --keyring-backend test)

Submit proposal​

osmosisd tx gov submit-proposal wasm-store $CONTRACT.wasm --title "Add $CONTRACT" \
  --description "Let's upload this contract" --run-as $VAL \
  --from validator --keyring-backend test --chain-id $CHAIN_ID -y -b block \
  --gas 9000000 --gas-prices 0.025uosmo

Query proposal​

osmosisd query gov proposal $PROPOSAL

Deposit on proposal​

osmosisd tx gov deposit $PROPOSAL 10000000uosmo --from validator --keyring-backend test \
    --chain-id $CHAIN_ID -y -b block --gas 6000000 --gas-prices 0.025uosmo

Vote​

osmosisd tx gov vote $PROPOSAL yes --from validator --keyring-backend test \
    --chain-id $CHAIN_ID -y -b block --gas 600000 --gas-prices 0.025uosmo

Check the results​

Wait 1 or two minutes for the results to show up.
