Fluffy: The Nimbus Portal Network Client

fluffy CI Stability: experimental License: Apache License: MIT

Discord: Nimbus Status: #nimbus-general

Introduction

This folder holds the development of the Nimbus client implementation supporting the Portal Network: fluffy. The Portal Network is a project still heavily in research phase and fully in flux. This client is thus still highly experimental.

Current status of specifications can be found in the portal-network-specs repository.

Development Updates

To keep up to date with changes and development progress, follow the Nimbus blog.

How to Build & Run

Prerequisites

  • GNU Make, Bash and the usual POSIX utilities. Git 2.9.4 or newer.

Build fluffy client

git clone git@github.com:status-im/nimbus-eth1.git
cd nimbus-eth1
make fluffy

# See available command line options
./build/fluffy --help

# Example command: Run the client and connect to a bootnode.
./build/fluffy --log-level:debug --bootnode:enr:<base64 encoding of ENR>

Update and rebuild fluffy client

# From the nimbus-eth1 repository
git pull
# To bring the git submodules up to date
make update

make fluffy

Run fluffy test suite

# From the nimbus-eth1 repository
make fluffy-test

Windows support

Follow the steps outlined here to build fluffy on Windows.

For Developers

When working on this repository, you can run the env.sh script to run a command with the right environment variables set. This means the vendored Nim and Nim modules will be used, just as when you use make.

E.g.:

# start a new interactive shell with the right env vars set
./env.sh bash

More development tips can be found on the general nimbus-eth1 readme.

The code follows the Status Nim Style Guide.
