Hyperlane Adapter

Lucid has developed an adapter that integrates with the Hyperlane messaging bridge to send and receive cross-chain messages.

Fees

Hyperlane supports on-chain fee quoting, based on a gas limit of the transaction on the destination, which the adapter contract uses to estimate the total fees required for a message.

When sending or exporting a transaction from the Lucid App, Lucid automatically calculates the full transaction cost, including any applicable protocol fees.

Hyperlane can refund excess gas fees if more than the required amount is sent. Using its on-chain quote function, the Hyperlane Adapter contract will determine whether any excess Ether was included and refund it to the refundAddress specified in the options field.

Interfaces

Each adapter implements the following public functions:

relayMessage

solidity
function relayMessage( uint256 destChainId, address destination, bytes memory options, bytes calldata message ) external payable returns (bytes32)

Sends a message through the Hyperlane bridge, deducts the protocol fee, and pays the necessary bridge fee.

  • The Ether value sent by the calling contract must cover both the Hyperlane fee and the Lucid protocol fee.
  • If excess funds are sent, they are refunded to the refundAddress.
  • Returns a bytes32 value representing the transferId generated by Hyperlane.

Input Params:

TypeNameDescription
uint256destChainIdThe destination chain ID.
addressdestinationThe destination address.
bytesoptionsAdditional params to be used by the adapter. In Hyperlane, an abi-encoded Options struct of refundAddress and gasLimit (address, uint256)
bytesmessageThe message to be relayed.
solidity
    /// @notice Options to be used when sending a message to Hyperlane
    struct Options {
        address refundAddress;
        uint256 gasLimit;
    }

quoteMessage

solidity
function quoteMessage( address destination, uint256 chainId, uint256 gasLimit, bytes calldata message, bool includeFee ) external view returns (uint256)

Calculates the total fee required to send a message using Hyperlane’s on-chain quoting function. Returns the estimated fee amount in Ether.

Input Params:

TypeNameDescription
addressdestinationThe destination address
uint256chainIdThe destination chain ID
uint256gasLimitThe gas limit required for the execution in the destination chain
bytesmessageThe message data that is sent across
boolincludeFeeWhether to include the protocol fee in the calculation
