Hardhat Google Cloud KMS Signer

This plugin signs Ethereum transaction using KMS key during deployments.

• Inspired by @rumblefishdev/hardhat-kms-signer
• Downgraded to work with hardhat@2.9.6

Usage

It's assumed that you have AWS access configured and your role perform kms:sign using KMS key.

In hardhat.config.ts do:

import "@conduit-xyz/hardhat-gcp-kms-signer";

...

const config: HardhatUserConfig = {
  networks: {
    ropsten: {
      url: `https://ropsten.infura.io/v3/${process.env.INFURA_KEY}`,
      gcpKmsKeyName: "YOUR KMS KEY ID"
    }
  }
}

$ node_modules/.bin/hardhat console --network ropsten

Remember to fund your address with some ETH before deploying.

Minimal EIP1559 gas values

On less crowded networks (such as Sepolia) there may be situations where automatic gas provider will set maxFeePerGas & maxPriorityFeePerGas near 0 (when empty blocks are mined). To prevent this you can set minimal values for them in config:

import "@conduit-xyz/hardhat-gcp-kms-signer";

...

const config: HardhatUserConfig = {
  networks: {
    ropsten: {
      url: `https://ropsten.infura.io/v3/${process.env.INFURA_KEY}`,
      gcpKmsKeyName: "YOUR KMS KEY ID",
      minMaxFeePerGas: 1600000000,
      minMaxPriorityFeePerGas: 1200000000
    }
  }
}
