MPP.Methods.Tempo (mpp v0.6.1)

Tempo payment method — verifies payment via on-chain TIP-20 token transfer.

Tempo supports two credential types:

type="hash" — Client already broadcast the transaction; server verifies the receipt via RPC (eth_getTransactionReceipt).
type="transaction" — Client sends a signed Tempo Transaction (0x76); server decodes, optionally adds fee payer signature, broadcasts, and verifies.

Configuration

Pass Tempo-specific config via :method_config in MPP.Plug opts:

plug MPP.Plug,
  secret_key: "hmac-secret",
  realm: "api.example.com",
  method: MPP.Methods.Tempo,
  amount: "1000000",
  currency: "0x20c0000000000000000000000000000000000000",
  method_config: %{
    "rpc_url" => "https://rpc.moderato.tempo.xyz",
    "chain_id" => 42431,
    "fee_payer" => false
  }

Config Keys

"rpc_url" — (required) Tempo RPC endpoint URL
"chain_id" — (optional) network chain ID, defaults to 42431 (Moderato testnet)
"fee_payer" — (optional) enable server-side fee sponsorship, defaults to false. When true, the server co-signs client transactions with domain 0x78 to pay transaction fees. Requires "fee_payer_private_key" and "fee_token".
"fee_payer_private_key" — (required when fee_payer: true) hex-encoded 32-byte secp256k1 private key for the fee payer account
"fee_token" — (required when fee_payer: true) hex address of a USD-denominated TIP-20 token to use for fee payment (e.g., pathUSD)
"fee_payer_policy" — (optional, fee_payer: true only) map of sponsor ceilings overriding the per-chain defaults: "max_gas", "max_fee_per_gas", "max_priority_fee_per_gas", "max_total_fee" (wei), and "max_validity_window_seconds" (seconds). Bounds the client-supplied gas fields and validity window before the server co-signs so a malicious client cannot drain the fee-payer wallet via inflated gas price, total fee budget, or a padded access list, nor hold a co-signed sponsorship broadcastable far into the future. See MPP.Methods.Tempo.FeePayerPolicy.
"memo" — (optional) bytes32 hex memo for transferWithMemo
"wait_for_confirmation" — (optional) when false, broadcasts without waiting for on-chain confirmation. Pre-simulates the full co-signed transaction via eth_simulateV1 first (same guard as the default path) to reject a tx that would revert before broadcast, then broadcasts async and returns an optimistic receipt. Default true.
"store" — (optional) module implementing MPP.Tempo.Store behaviour for transaction dedup, or {MPP.Tempo.ConCacheStore, opts} to configure the built-in ConCache store (for example a custom cache :name). Prevents replay by tracking used tx hashes. When nil (default), no dedup is performed — library stays stateless.

Credential Payload

The credential payload map must contain one of:

"type" => "hash", "hash" => "0x..." — transaction hash for receipt verification
"type" => "transaction", "signature" => "..." — RLP-serialized signed Tempo Transaction

Dependencies

Requires the onchain and onchain_tempo packages (optional dependencies) for RPC calls, transfer log parsing, and 0x76 Tempo transaction handling. The method checks availability at init time via validate_config!/1.
