Description

This role provisions a Nimbus installation that can act as an ETH2 network bootstrap node.

Introduction

Each host can run multiple nodes installed as docker containers. TCP and UDP ports starting from 9000 will be exposed (e.g. 9000, 9001 and 9002 if you run 3 nodes).

Installation

Add to your requirements.yml file:

- name: infra-role-beacon-node
  src: git+git@github.com:status-im/infra-role-beacon-node.git
  scm: git

Configuration

The crucial settings are:

beacon_node_network: 'testnet0'
# optional setting for debug mode
beacon_node_log_level: DEBUG

Usage

You can re-create containers on the host using:

cd /docker/beacon-node-testnet0-1
docker-compose --compatibility up -d --force-recreate

Which will use the docker-compose.yml file in that directory.

Requirements

Due to being part of Status infra this role assumes availability of certain things:

  • Docker for running containers
  • The iptables-persistent module
