- 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"
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:
scripts/connect_to_testnet.sh testnet0
Running your own testnet
The beacon_node binary has a createTestnet command.
nim c -r beacon_chain/beacon_node \
--network=$NETWORK_NAME \
--dataDir=$DATA_DIR/node-0 \
createTestnet \
--networkId=$NETWORK_ID \
--validatorsDir=$NETWORK_DIR \
--totalValidators=$VALIDATOR_COUNT \
--lastUserValidator=$LAST_USER_VALIDATOR \
--outputGenesis=$NETWORK_DIR/genesis.json \
--outputNetwork=$NETWORK_DIR/network.json \
--bootstrapAddress=$PUBLIC_IP \
--genesisOffset=600 # Delay in seconds
Replace ENV vars with values that make sense to you.
