After a change in PR #1031, bootstrap node sprs may not work when Hardhat nodes are started with the tests. This fixes it by appending all started client's and provider's SPR to a sequence, and using that sequence of SPRs to start the next node. This means all subsequently started nodes will be connected to its previously started peers. This also fixes the case when bootstrap SPRs would not be present if no clients were started.
Codex Decentralized Durability Engine
The Codex project aims to create a decentralized durability engine that allows persisting data in p2p networks. In other words, it allows storing files and data with predictable durability guarantees for later retrieval.
WARNING: This project is under active development and is considered pre-alpha.
Build and Run
For detailed instructions on preparing to build nim-codex see Build Codex.
To build the project, clone it and run:
make update && make
The executable will be placed under the build directory under the project root.
Run the client with:
build/codex
Configuration
It is possible to configure a Codex node in several ways:
- CLI options
- Environment variables
- Configuration file
The order of priority is the same as above: CLI options --> Environment variables --> Configuration file.
Please check documentation for more information.
Guides
To get acquainted with Codex, consider:
- running the simple Codex Two-Client Test for a start, and;
- if you are feeling more adventurous, try Running a Local Codex Network with Marketplace Support using a local blockchain as well.
API
The client exposes a REST API that can be used to interact with the clients. Overview of the API can be found on api.codex.storage.
