# Codex Testnet Starter
|
|
Hit the ground running with Codex.
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|

|
|
Using the Testnet Starter, you can run a (mostly preconfigured) Codex node on your machine. You always have the option to build and run Codex from sources [Here](https://github.com/codex-storage/nim-codex/).

|
## [How to start](#codex-testnet-starter)
|
|
- Create a public/private key pair.
|
|
- Have Docker installed.
|
|
- Have Discord installed.
|
|
- Clone this repo.
|
|
- Define variables:
|
|
```shell
|
|
export PRIV_KEY=9721fb80cf32275ce80ae41927130adc767d435dbb1d80114dac2ef2d7c951f0
|
|
|
|
# export CODEX_ETH_PROVIDER=https://rpc.testnet.codex.storage
|
|
# export GETH_VERBOSITY=4
|
|
```
|
|
- `docker-compose up -d`
|
|
|
|
|
|
## [How to get ready](#codex-testnet-starter)
|
|
When starting the Testnet Starter for the first time, (or restarting after a long pause) please keep in mind:
|
|
- Your local Geth node will need time to sync.
|
|
- Codex should automatically wait until Geth is ready. However, in some situations Codex will attempt to start and promptly crash too soon. This is a known issue. When this happens, please manually restart Codex's container when your Geth node is synced.
|
|
|
|
Before you can use the marketplace functionality of Codex, you will need to obtain some tokens in the testnet.
|
|
1. Join the Codex Discord server: [Here](LINK PENDING)
|
|
1. Find the appropriate testnet channel.
|
|
1. Give your public key to the bot using `set` command.
|
|

|
|
1. Ask it politely to mint some tokens for you using `mint` command.
|
|

|
|
(It may or may not happen in the future that testnet participation will be rewarded automatically with Discord server roles.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## [How to use](#codex-testnet-starter)
|
|
Once running, Codex exposes a web-api at the API port. (default: 8080)
|
|
To read more about how to use the API, go [Here](/USINGCODEX.md)
