rln-db-inspector

This document describes how to run and use the rln-db-inspector tool. It is meant to be used to debug and fetch the metadata stored in the RLN tree db.

Pre-requisites

1. An existing RLN tree db

Usage

1. First, we compile the binary

   make -j16 wakunode2
   

   This command will fetch the rln static library and link it automatically.

2. Define the arguments you wish to use

   export RLN_TREE_DB_PATH="xxx"
   

3. Run the db inspector

   ./build/wakunode2 inspectRlnDb \
   --rln-relay-tree-path:$RLN_TREE_DB_PATH 
   

   What this does is - a. loads the tree db from the path provided b. Logs out the metadata, including, number of leaves set, past 5 merkle roots, last synced block number
