This tutorial will enable you to program the Filecoin deal market and create multiple FVM Data DAOs.
What is FVM
Let's start by understanding what is FVM. FVM stands for Filecoin Virtual machine. As a web3 developer, you may already know that filecoin is a decentralized storage provider in most layman's terms (or a peer-to-peer network that stores files, with built-in economic incentives to ensure files are stored reliably over time, to be exact). Now think of adding a computational layer on the top of filecoin, that FVM for you.
The FVM unlocks boundless possibilities, ranging from programmable storage primitives (such as storage bounties, auctions, and more), to cross-chain interoperability bridges (e.g. trustlessly connecting Filecoin with Ethereum, Solana, NEAR, and more), to data-centric Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), to Layer 2 solutions (such as reputation systems, data availability sampling, computation fabrics, and incentive-aligned Content Delivery Networks), and more.
What is Storage Deal
Before moving ahead, let us get a quick insight into how the cycle between storage provider, storage, client, and marketplace revolves.
Storage deals refer to the stored data that is picked up by a Storage Provider in the Filecoin network. A deal is initiated with the Storage Client to store the data. The deal’s details and metadata of the stored data are then uploaded onto the Filecoin blockchain. FVM/FEVM allows interaction with this metadata, effectively computing over the state.
Building Data DAO contract
This tutorial would be based on this repo.
Now, let's write smart contracts and understand the logic inside them.
DataDAO.sol
This contract enables the storage provider to add the CID to store data with the Filecoin built-in deal market. The process of adding the CID has to go through a policy check where the CID needs to be approved by DAO members via a voting mechanism.

Proposal memory proposal = Proposal(proposalCount, msg.sender, cidraw, size, 0, 0, block.timestamp, block.timestamp + 1 hours);

Let’s now go step by step. The storage provider can create a proposal to add his CID using createCIDProposal function.
As FEVM is pre-launch to Filecoin’s mainnet, FEVM actors as of today, cannot yet interact easily with storage deals on the Filecoin network.
To simulate this for the hack, we have sample CID-related data. These deals are built into the Wallaby test network and your actor can interact with them.
Sample Test Data
testCID = "0x000181E2039220206B86B273FF34FCE19D6B804EFF5A3F5747ADA4EAA22F1D49C01E52DDB7875B4B";
testSize = 2048
testProvider = "0x0066";
testmessageAuthParams = "0x8240584c8bd82a5828000181e2039220206b86b273ff34fce19d6b804eff5a3f5747ada4eaa22f1d49c01e52ddb7875b4b190800f4420068420066656c6162656c0a1a0008ca0a42000a42000a42000a";
DataDaoFactory.sol
Now let's write the Factory contract to interact with this DataDAO smart contract and create multiple versions of it according to our needs.
// SPDX-License-Identifier: UNLICENSED
pragma solidity ^0.8.9;
import "./DataDAO.sol";
contract DataDoaFactory{
// factory contract owner
address public immutable dataDaoFactoryOwner;
// number of DataDAO created
uint256 public numOfDataDao;
// struct to store all the data of dataDao and dataDaoFactory contract
struct dataDaoFactoryStruct {
address dataDaoOwner;
address dataDaoFactoryOwner;
}
// searching the struct data of DataDao and DataDoaFactory using owner address
mapping(address => dataDaoFactoryStruct) public allDataDaos;
// owner address will be used check which address own/create a new dataDAO
// mapping(ownerAddress => smart contract address)
mapping(address => address) public searchByAddress;
/**
* @dev constructor to get the owner address of this contract factory
*/
constructor(address _dataDaoFactoryOwner) {
dataDaoFactoryOwner = _dataDaoFactoryOwner;
}
/**
* @dev function to create the contract DATADAO
*/
function createDataDao(address _dataDaoOwner) public {
DataDAO dataDao = new DataDAO(
_dataDaoOwner
);
// Increment the number of DataDao
numOfDataDao++;
// Add the new DataDAO to the mapping
allDataDaos[_dataDaoOwner] = (
dataDaoFactoryStruct(
_dataDaoOwner, // address of dataDAO owner
address(this)
)
);
// search the profile by using owner address
searchByAddress[_dataDaoOwner].push(address(dataDao));
}
// get the balance of the contract
function getContractBalance() public view returns (uint256) {
return address(this).balance;
}
// get the address of this contract
function getAddressOfContract() public view returns (address) {
return address(this);
}
// function to withdraw the fund from contract factory
function withdraw(uint256 amount) external payable {
require(msg.sender == dataDaoFactoryOwner, "ONLY_ONWER_CAN_CALL_FUNCTION");
// sending money to contract owner
require(address(this).balance >= amount, "not_enough_funds");
(bool success, ) = dataDaoFactoryOwner.call{value: amount}("");
require(success, "TRANSFER_FAILED");
}
// get the address of DataDaoFactory contract owner
function getAddressOfDataDaoFactoryOwner() public view returns (address) {
return dataDaoFactoryOwner;
}
// receive function is used to receive Ether when msg.data is empty
receive() external payable {}
// Fallback function is used to receive Ether when msg.data is NOT empty
fallback() external payable {}
}
Now compile the DataDaoFactory smart contract and deploy it on Wallaby- Testnet for Filecoin.
Now let's create a new Data DAO using our DataDaoFactory contract.
Let us create an add CID proposal, using the above test data.
Once you have created the proposal, you would be able to see all the basic data related to that proposal
Now, it's time for the DAO members to vote on that proposal before the voting period ends. If the total count of upvotes is greater than the total count of downvotes then the proposal would be passed else it would be considered rejected. This contract uses a simple DAO mechanism, you can frame and implement your own rules and make it more interesting and secure.
Note: Only members apart from the storage provider would be able to cast a vote and each member can vote only once.
Enough said. It’s time to vote! To keep it simple, I would be upvoting and passing this proposal. You can always play around with this.
If you go back and check the details of the proposal the count of upvotes would have been incremented to 1 whereas the downvotes would be still zero.
Note: This voting process should be completed within 1 hour from the creation of the proposal. You can make changes to the contract and increase or decrease the timer accordingly.
Okay. All done with the voting part !!
Now that we have passed the proposal, now it's time to publish our deal. In case the DAO failed the proposal, the storage provider won’t be able to publish his deal.
We have a mock marketplace contract, let's deploy that first. This contract takes the contract address of our DAO contract i.e the client contract inside its constructor.
Let us publish the deal, this function takes two inputs the message auth param which you can get from the test data, and the respective proposal ID.
If the proposal was passed, this function would get executed successfully else, it would fail.
That’s it! This was a quick guide as to how you can play around with the basic client contract.
