# nwaku-compose
Ready to use docker-compose to run your own [nwaku](https://github.com/waku-org/nwaku) full node:
* nwaku node running relay and store protocols with RLN enabled.
* Simple frontend to interact with your node and the network, to publish and receive messages.
* Grafana dashboard for advanced users or node operators.
* Requires `docker-compose` and `git`.
**📝 0. Prerequisites**
You need:
* Ethereum Sepolia ws endpoint. Get one free from [Infura](https://www.infura.io/).
* Ethereum Sepolia account with some balance <0.01 Eth. Get some [here](https://www.infura.io/faucet/sepolia).
* A password to protect your rln membership.
```
export ETH_CLIENT_ADDRESS=wss://sepolia.infura.io/ws/v3/YOUR_INFURA_KEY
export ETH_TESTNET_KEY=REPLACE_BY_YOUR_KEY
export KEYSTORE_PASSWORD=PICK_A_PASSWORD
```
**🔑 1. Register RLN membership**
The RLN membership is your access key to The Waku Network. Its registration is done onchain, and allows your nwaku node to publish messages in a decentralized and private way, respecting some rate limits. This command will register it and store in `keystore/keystore.json`. Note that if you just want to relay traffic (not publish), you don't need one.
```
./register_rln.sh
```
**🖥 2. Start your node**
Start all processes: nwaku node, database and grafana for metrics. Your RLN membership is loaded into nwaku under the hood.
```console
docker-compose up -d
```
**🏄🏼 3. Interact with your nwaku node**
* See [http://localhost:3000/d/yns_4vFVk/nwaku-monitoring](http://localhost:3000/d/yns_4vFVk/nwaku-monitoring) for node metrics.
* See [localhost:4000](http://localhost:4000). Under development 🚧
**📬 4. Use the REST API**
Your nwaku node exposes a [REST API](https://waku-org.github.io/waku-rest-api/) to interact with it.
```
# get nwaku version
curl http://127.0.0.1:8645/debug/v1/version
# get nwaku info
curl http://127.0.0.1:8645/debug/v1/info
```
**Publish a message to a `contentTopic`**. Everyone subscribed to it will receive it. Note that `payload` is base64 encoded.
```
curl -X POST "http://127.0.0.1:8645/relay/v1/auto/messages" \
-H "content-type: application/json" \
-d '{"payload":"'$(echo -n "Hello Waku Network - from Anonymous User!" | base64)'","contentTopic":"/my-app/2/chatroom-1/proto"}'
```
**Get messages sent to a `contentTopic`**. Note that any store node in the network is used to reply.
```
curl -X GET "http://127.0.0.1:8645/store/v1/messages?contentTopics=%2Fmy-app%2F2%2Fchatroom-1%2Fproto&pageSize=50&ascending=true" \
-H "accept: application/json"
```
