# Migrate your dApp to Ten
Migrating to Ten is a straight-forward process that immediately unlocks private state.
There are three main types of changes you need to make:

1. Change your hardhat deployment script so that you can use --network ten
2. Add logic to your view functions to protect data (if needed).
3. Add a widget to your javascript UI to onboard Ten users.
Migrating to Ten enables your dApp to leverage "Programmable Encryption" for added data privacy. Below are steps to help you transition smoothly.

### Key Migration Steps

1. Update your Hardhat deployment to support the `--network ten` option.
2. Integrate data protection into your view functions (if applicable).
3. Set visibility for event logs.
4. Add a Ten onboarding widget to your JavaScript UI.

## 1. Configuring Hardhat

To begin building on Ten, start by setting up a Hardhat project as usual.
First, set up a Hardhat project if you haven't already.

### 1.1 Installing the Ten Hardhat Plugin

To integrate the Ten Network into your Hardhat project, install the ten-hardhat-plugin:
To add Ten Network compatibility, install the `ten-hardhat-plugin`:

```bash
npm install ten-hardhat-plugin
```

You can extend the functionality of Hardhat by installing plugins. Install them using npm or Yarn & configure it in the next step.
_You can use `npm` or `yarn` to install plugins._

### 1.2 Configuring `hardhat.config.js`

Open `hardhat.config.js` in your project's root directory and configure it in the following way:
Modify `hardhat.config.js` in your projects root directory as follows:

```javascript
import {HardhatUserConfig} from "hardhat/config";
import { HardhatUserConfig } from "hardhat/config";
import "@nomiclabs/hardhat-waffle";
import 'ten-hardhat-plugin'
import "ten-hardhat-plugin";

module.exports = {
solidity: "0.8.10",
networks: {
hardhat: {
// Configuration for the Hardhat Network
},
hardhat: {},
ten: {
url: "https://testnet.ten.xyz/v1/",
chainId: 443,
url: "https://testnet.ten.xyz/v1/",
chainId: 443,
accounts: ["your-private-key"],
},
},
};

export default config;
```
Now, start writing the smart contracts for your project.

# 2. Writing Smart Contracts
Once configured, you’re ready to start writing or migrating your smart contracts.

Ten performs bytecode execution in the EVM identically to Ethereum, allowing developers to leverage their existing codebase and tools.
## 2. Writing Smart Contracts for Ten

The main difference and advantage of Ten is that on Ten, during execution, private variables and the internal state of the contract are hidden from everyone, including node operators and the sequencer.
Ten executes bytecode within the EVM similarly to Ethereum, so you can reuse much of your existing code. However, Ten enhances privacy by hiding private variables and contract states, making it an ideal platform for privacy-focused dApps.

:::info
In Ten, the internal node database is encrypted, and the execution itself is also encrypted inside the TEE.
Ten encrypts its internal node database and also encrypts execution within a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE).
:::

The calls to [getStorageAt](https://docs.alchemy.com/reference/eth-getstorageat) are disabled, so all data access will be performed through view functions which are under the control of the smart contract developer. Public variables are accessible to everyone because Solidity automatically generates a getter function for them.
The [getStorageAt](https://docs.alchemy.com/reference/eth-getstorageat) method is disabled by default on Ten, so data access relies on view functions that you define. Public variables remain accessible as Solidity automatically creates getters for them.

We'll illustrate how this works by creating a simple data storage example. In this dApp, users can store a number and retrieve it later.
Let's illustrate with a basic storage dApp example where users can store and retrieve a number.

### Explanation:
### Explanation

In this step, we've declared a public variable `storedValues`. Solidity automatically generates a public getter view function for it, so on both Ethereum and Ten, you can call this view function without any restrictions. We also created a function that allows users to store a value against their address.
`storedValues` is a public variable. Solidity provides a default getter for it, making it accessible on both Ethereum and Ten. The `storeValue` function allows users to associate a value with their address.

### Explanation:
### Explanation

We've now made our data variable private, meaning it can't be accessed directly from outside the contract. To fetch its value, we've provided a custom public view function `getValue` where the user provides the address. On both Ethereum and Ten, if you call this function you will retrieve the number stored by that address.
The `storedValues` variable is now private, requiring a custom `getValue` function to retrieve data. While both Ethereum and Ten allow you to call this function, on Ten, `_storedValues` is inaccessible outside of `getValue`.

:::caution
In Ethereum, the `_storedValues` variable can also be accessed directly using the `getStorageAt` method, but not in Ten.

## Step 3: Implementing Data Access Control
## Step 3: Adding Data Access Control

In this step, our aim is to restrict users to only access their own value. This feature can only be implemented in Ten because as mentioned above, `_storedValues` is not hidden in Ethereum.
We’ll add restrictions so users can only access their own data. This is only possible on Ten since Ten prevents unauthorized access to private state data.

### Explanation:
### Explanation

Since `getValue` is the only function which exposes the values, we can add a check like this: `require(tx.origin == account, "Not authorized!");` If anyone, other than the original account, asks for the value, they will get an error.
By requiring `tx.origin == account`, only the original account can retrieve its data, adding a layer of access control.

:::info
In Ethereum, since all data is accessible anyway, there is no need to sign calls to view functions, so `tx.origin` can be spoofed.
Ten uses a "Viewing Key" for authenticated view function calls, ensuring that only authorized users can access their data.
:::

In Ten, the platform ensures that calls to view functions are authenticated. Which means that behind the scenes, there is a signature of the `tx.origin` address.
## Step 4: Emitting Events - Default Visibility

## Step 4: Emitting Events
Events notify UIs about state changes in smart contracts. We’ll emit an event when a user stores a value and another milestone event when a specific threshold is met.

Events in Ethereum are crucial for UIs to react to smart contract state changes. In this step, we'll emit an event when a user stores a value. We'll also gauge the popularity of our contract by emitting an event when certain milestones are reached.

I think chat gpt missed some nuances here

- `DataChanged` is visible only to the `account` in the event.
- `MilestoneReached` is publicly visible to all.

## Step 5: Customizing Event Visibility

You may want explicit control over event visibility. To do this, implement the `ContractTransparencyConfig` interface.

### Code

```solidity
interface ContractTransparencyConfig {
enum Field { TOPIC1, TOPIC2, TOPIC3, SENDER, EVERYONE }
enum ContractCfg { TRANSPARENT, PRIVATE }

struct EventLogConfig {
bytes32 eventSignature;
Field[] visibleTo;
}

struct VisibilityConfig {
ContractCfg contractCfg;
EventLogConfig[] eventLogConfigs;
}

function visibilityRules() external pure returns (VisibilityConfig memory);
}

contract StorageExample is ContractTransparencyConfig {
mapping(address => uint256) private _storedValues;
uint256 private totalCalls = 0;

event DataChanged(address indexed account, uint256 newValue);
event MilestoneReached(uint256 noStoredValues);

function storeValue(uint256 value) public {
_storedValues[tx.origin] = value;
emit DataChanged(tx.origin, value);
totalCalls++;
if (totalCalls % 1000 == 0) {
emit MilestoneReached(totalCalls);
}
}

function getValue(address account) public view returns (uint256) {
require(tx.origin == account, "Not authorized!");
return _storedValues[account];
}

function visibilityRules() external pure override returns (VisibilityConfig memory) {
EventLogConfig;

On Ethereum, events are visible to anyone. For example, you can subscribe to the `DataChanged` event and receive notifications in real-time about the data of everyone else. In Ten, we wanted to do better than that.
bytes32 dataChangedSig = hex"0xec851d5c322f7f1dd5581f7432e9f6683a8709a4b1ca754ccb164742b82a7d2f";
Field;
relevantTo[0] = Field.TOPIC1;
relevantTo[1] = Field.SENDER;
eventLogConfigs[0] = EventLogConfig(dataChangedSig, relevantTo);

- The `DataChanged` event is specific to an account, so it should only be received by that user.
- `MilestoneReached`, on the other hand, is intended for everyone, as we want to show how popular our contract is.
bytes32 milestoneSig = hex"0xd41033274424d56dd572e7196fb4230cf4141d546b91fc00555cab8403965924";
Field;
visibleToAll[0] = Field.EVERYONE;
eventLogConfigs[1] = EventLogConfig(milestoneSig, visibleToAll);

The behavior you desire is to restrict the visibility of `DataChanged`, but not that of `MilestoneReached`. **This is exactly how it works by default!**
return VisibilityConfig(ContractCfg.PRIVATE, eventLogConfigs);
}
}
```

How it works:
- `DataChanged` - has an address as a topic (an indexed field), which makes it relevant to that address.
- `MilestoneReached` - has no address topic, so it is visible to everyone.
### Explanation

All you have to do is emit events as usual, and the platform applies common-sense visibility rules.
- Implementing `ContractTransparencyConfig.visibilityRules` gives control over event visibility.

it didn't get this right either

- `ContractCfg.TRANSPARENT`: Contracts with public storage and events, exactly like Ethereum.
- `ContractCfg.PRIVATE`: Private contracts where the event visibility can be individually specified by using `Field.EVERYONE`.
