* Jenkins: add timeouts to testnet finalisation tests
- add nicer child process management to "launch_local_testnet.sh"
- correct a comment in "start.sh"
* the Jenkins worker's version of "timeout" doesn't support "-v"
* Create a json log named "nbc.log" only when the --dev-build option
is specified to the connect_to_testnet script.
This option is specified for the targets "testnet0", "testnet1"
and "schlesi-dev"
Please see the newly added 'schlesi-dev' Makefile target.
It demonstrates how the log level can be specified for individual topics.
Additionally, when connecting to testnets like 'schlesi' there will be
two additional log files produced in the working directory:
* json-log.txt
* text-log.txt (in the textblocks format)
* fix mainnet finalization and swith eth2_network_simulation to a kind of small-mainnet profile
* Fix slot reference in trace logging
* bump a couple of spec refs from v0.11.0 to v0.11.1
* bump another spec ref to v0.11.1, one more try at Jenkins test vector download CI issue
* fix other slot reference in trace logging and skip past single-block/multi-slot gaps to re-approach from ancestry side by state_transitioning, by requiring exact match on both root hash and slot for fast path
* make more precise the fast path condition
* redo logic to make uniform with BeaconChainDB; fix chronos deprecation warning
* revert not-working replacement of deprecated chronos futures `or`
* switch testnet1 to mainnet
* beacon node code cleanup
* rudimentary error checking on mainnet monitor
* start client even when sending deposit
* work around missing block number exception
* connect to testnet with web3 url
* pretty-print digests in json
The loader has been tested with the presets published by Lighthouse.
You can try connecting to one of their testnets by running:
cd nim-beacon-chain
./connect-to-testnet lighthouse/testnet0
On your very first connection to each testnet, you'll be asked to
become a validator. Please consult our private repo for a Goerli
Eth1 private key that you can use for deposits.
Other changes:
* Added a simple wrapper ./connect-to-testnet script calling the
nims file in the correct environment. No extension was used to
make the command the same on Unix and Windows.
* Bumped a number of modules with fixes from this week
* `make testnet0` and `make testnet1` will no longer delete your
existing database. This is considered a more appropriate behavior
for testing forward sync.
