Send your first interchain message

This tutorial demonstrates how to send an interchain message to a pre-deployed TestRecipient contract.

Sending a message is a simple matter of calling Mailbox.dispatch. Make sure you have an account with funds on the origin chain.

Install the CLI:
npm install -g @hyperlane-xyz/cli
Send the message:
hyperlane send message --origin alfajores --destination bsctestnet --body "Hello, world""
tip

You can watch the progress of your message on explorer.hyperlane.xyz by searching for the transaction hash of your Mailbox.dispatch call.

Check the result

The TestRecipient has the following handle implementation:

function handle(
uint32 _origin,
bytes32 _sender,
bytes calldata _data
) external payable virtual override {
emit ReceivedMessage(_origin, _sender, msg.value, string(_data));
lastSender = _sender;
lastData = _data;
}

Check the logs to see your message delivery!
