nimbus-eth1/run-nimbus-sync

#!/bin/bash
#
# Script to run Nimbus-eth1 on the same networks Geth supports by name,
# with a trusted connection to a dedicated peer for that network.
#
# All protocols are disabled other than the minimum we need for block sync.
#
# This is very helpful for debugging and improving pipelined sync, and for
# improving the database and other processing, even though p2p sync is the
# endgame.
#
# - Discovery protocols are turned off
# - NAT hole punching protocols are turned off
# - Whisper protocol is turned off (`--protocols:eth`)
# - The only connection is to a single, active Geth for that network.
# - Each network's data is stored in a different location to avoid conflicts.
# - Each network is accessed by binding to a different port locally,
#   so we can run several at the same time.
# - Log level is set to `TRACE` because we can read them when we're not
#   swamped with discovery messages.  Sync isn't fast enough yet.
#
# The enode URLs below are public facing Geth instances that are syncing to
# each of the networks.  Nimbus-eth1 devs are free to use them for testing
# while they remain up.  However, better results will be obtained if those nodes
# also have the Nimbus instances as "trusted peers".
#
set -e -u -o pipefail

# First argument says which testnet, or use mainnet for that.
# Defaults to goerli if omitted.
testnet=${1:-goerli}

# Additional arguments after the first are passed to Nimbus.
