* Allow chain dag without genesis / block This PR enables the initialization of the dag without access to blocks or genesis state - it is a prerequisite for implementing a number of interesting features: * checkpoint sync without any block download * pruning of blocks and states * backfill checkpoint block
Introduction
ncli
is a set of low level / debugging tools to interact with the nimbus beacon chain specification implementation, simliar to zcli. With it, you explore SSZ, make state transitions and compute hash tree roots.
Tools
- transition: Perform state transition given a pre-state and a block to apply (both in SSZ format)
- hash_tree_root: Print tree root of an SSZ object
- pretty: Pretty-print SSZ object as JSON
Building
Follow the instructions from nimbus-eth2
git clone https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2.git
cd nimbus-eth2
make
