* 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.
* Move BeaconNode type to its own file (fewer imports)
* disentangle sync protocol/request manager
* fix some old nimisms
* de-fear some logs
* simplify eth1 data production
* add stack tracing to release builds
* drop release compile flag for testnet
- use a Debian Bullseye image
- use the distro's packages whenever possible
- cache as much as possible of the Git repos and tool binaries locally
- restrict Docker image pushing to specific branches; no build
restrictions, to allow for easy development
The number of user nodes is now specified with `USER_NODES`.
To make the instructions more stable, the "numeric id" of the user
nodes will be starting from 0 (so you can always use `run_node.sh 0`
to start a user node).
If you specify a node index above the total number of nodes, you'll
launch a node without any validators attached (this is useful for
testing the sync for example).
When the connect_to_testnet script is invoked it will first verify that
the genesis file of the testnet hasn't changed. If it has changed, any
previously created database associated with the testnet will be erased.
To facilitate this, the genesis file of each network is written to the
data folder of the beacon node. The beacon node will refuse to start if
it detects a discrepancy between the data folder and any state snapshot
specified on the command-line.
Since the testnet sharing spec requires us to use SSZ snapshots, the Json
support is now phased out. To help with the transition and to preserve the
functionality of the multinet scripts, the beacon node now supports a CLI
query command that can extract any data from the genesis state. This is
based on new developments in the SSZ navigators.
* Delete the node database on all containers when resetting a testnet
* Add a simple mechanism for switching the URL of the eth2-testnets repo
* More flexible code for validator assignments
* update test submodule [skip ci]
* rename the process_lfs script to setup_official_tests [skip ci]
* clarify that the existing LFS is for json files [skip ci]
* Update again to use download/unpack function library
* update the test downloading script [skip ci]
* Update EF fixtures with new test path
* fix symlink order
* Fix relative:absolute symlink issue
* add symlink existence check
* setup_official_tests.sh: refactoring
Multi-client testing requires more portable formats, and SSZ is
much better specified than our flavour of Json.
Tools like ncli and zcli can be now used to inspect the contents
of the SSZ files.
* add interop launcher scripts
* stick validator_keygen into beacon_node
* fix lmd ghost slot number on missing block
* use mocked eth1data when producing blocks
* use bls public key method for withdrawal credentials
* fix deposit domain
* prefer lowercase for a bunch of toHex
* build simulation binary in data folder to avoid data types confusion
* Update fixtures to 0.8.3
* v0.8.1 tests use new test path
* LFS caching: handle multiple versions of json_tests
* Enable paths > 260 characters in appveyor
* Appveyor: use git clone core.longpaths + the env variable at startup
* improve process_lfs.sh and cleanup submodules
* handle LFS fixtures for the test suite
* test_fixture_ssz_static.nim: allow the tests to fail properly
- switch to a debug build for the failing tests
* try -d:debug
- added a "quitProc" for shutting down the p2pd process, after seeing it
survive an unhandled exception (this required a global var for the
DaemonApi instance)
- Makefile testnet0/1 targets now depend on the "p2pd" binary
- prefixed the testnet command line in the build script message with
"../../env.sh" so it can find the superproject's "p2pd"
* On the testnet site, the first N instead of the last N validators
will be considered reserved for users
* The number of validators is consistently named `totalValidators`
in all commands
* Proper keys are generated by default in validator_keygen
