* don't kill the program if not connected to a bootstrap node within 30 seconds
* recover faster from loss of network connectivity
* connectWorker(): sleep 1s between dials
* launch_local_testnet.sh: increase BOOTSTRAP_TIMEOUT
* don't use metric value in program logic
* refactor some ungainly variable names
- testnets can now be launched with a separate validator client - make altona SCRIPT_PARAMS="--separateVC"
- reverted the ctrl+C signal handler code reuse - not necessary for the VC anyway (default is good enough)
- added a bit more logging in the VC
- removed unnecessary code in the VC - connect() just parses the address & port...
- fixed a couple more VC issues - when fetching the duties for an epoch fails on the BN side ==> the VC shouldn't be left in a broken state
- documented the currently supported json-rpc endpoints
- added more checks on the BN side for the API - bounds-checking the requests & also checking if the BN itself is synced
- other cleanup
currently a local sim doesn't finalize, but participation in the altona network with a separate VC is painless and works just as well as with in-process validators in a BN
- remove `--dev-build` option
- unconditionally write the "nbc.log" file, but do it after a chdir to
dataDir because Chronicles doesn't seem to support proper paths for
"file(...)" in sink definitions
- change base RPC port (9090 -> 9190) because 9090 is the default
Prometheus daemon listening port
Since I'm not able to reproduce the finalization failure locally
and it does happen only sporadically, one possible explanation is
that the introduction of keystores lead to a slower initialization
of the beacon nodes which somehow interferes with their behavior
during the initial slots.
If increasing the start-up delay fixes the problems, the hypothesis
will be confirmed.
- moved "process_dashboard.nim" in "tools/"
- README: made Witti the documented testnet and added instructions for
getting metrics out of the local node
- moved Prometheus config file generation in its own script
- the static Grafana dashboard definition now covers all nodes, using
a variable; only the remote testnet dashboards need to be dynamically
generated
- "launch_local_testnet.sh" no longer needs a "--grafana" option
The first offset of an SSZ object should always have a fixed constant
value. Otherwise, some unused bytes may appear between the fixed portion
and the dynamic portion.
Please note that this fix shutds down the minimal forward compatibility
currently supported by the SSZ format (and thus, the expected behavior
must be clarified in the SSZ spec).
* sync fixes
* fix Status message finalized info
* work around sync starting before initial status exchange
* don't fail block on deposit signature check failure (fixes#989)
* print ForkDigest and Version nicely
* dump incoming blocks
* fix crash when libp2p peer connection is closed
* update chunk size to 16 to work around missing blocks when syncing
* bump libp2p
* bump libp2p
* better deposit skip message
* 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
