_Work in progress. Things may and probably will break for the foreseeable future. Do not rely on this for anything._
## Connecting to Testnet
To connect to a short-lived testnet we may or may not have running at the moment, use the `connect_to_testnet` script like so:
```bash
scripts/connect_to_testnet.sh testnet0
```
## Running your own testnet
The `beacon_node` binary has a `createTestnet` command.
```bash
nim c -r beacon_chain/beacon_node \
--network=$NETWORK_NAME \
--dataDir=$DATA_DIR/node-0 \
createTestnet \
--networkId=$NETWORK_ID \
--validatorsDir=$NETWORK_DIR \
--numValidators=$VALIDATOR_COUNT \
--firstUserValidator=$FIRST_USER_VALIDATOR \
--outputGenesis=$NETWORK_DIR/genesis.json \
--outputNetwork=$NETWORK_DIR/$NETWORK_FLAVOUR-network.json \
--bootstrapAddress=$PUBLIC_IP \
--genesisOffset=600 # Delay in seconds
```
Replace ENV vars with values that make sense to you.
