fixturenet-laconicd-stack

Instructions for running a laconicd fixturenet along with registry CLI and console

Setup

• Clone the stack repos:

  laconic-so fetch-stack git.vdb.to/cerc-io/fixturenet-laconicd-stack
  laconic-so fetch-stack git.vdb.to/cerc-io/testnet-laconicd-stack
  

• Clone required repositories:

  # laconicd
  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/fixturenet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/fixturenet-laconicd setup-repositories
  
  # laconic cli and console
  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconic-console setup-repositories
  

• Build the container images:

  # laconicd
  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/fixturenet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/fixturenet-laconicd build-containers
  
  # laconic cli and console
  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconic-console build-containers
  

  This should create the following docker images locally:

  • cerc/laconicd
  • cerc/laconic-registry-cli
  • cerc/webapp-base
  • cerc/laconic-console-host

Create a deployment

• Create spec files for the deployment:

  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/fixturenet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/fixturenet-laconicd deploy init --output fixturenet-laconicd-spec.yml
  
  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconic-console deploy init --output laconic-console-spec.yml
  

• Edit network in the spec file to map container ports to host ports as required:

  # fixturenet-laconicd-spec.yml
  ...
  network:
    ports:
      laconicd:
        - '6060:6060'
        - '26657:26657'
        - '26656:26656'
        - '9473:9473'
        - '9090:9090'
        - '1317:1317'
  
  # laconic-console-spec.yml
  ...
  network:
    ports:
      console:
        - '8080:80'
  

• Create deployment from the spec files:

  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/fixturenet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/fixturenet-laconicd deploy create --spec-file fixturenet-laconicd-spec.yml --deployment-dir fixturenet-laconicd-deployment
  
  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconic-console deploy create --spec-file laconic-console-spec.yml --deployment-dir laconic-console-deployment
  
  # Place them both in the same namespace (cluster)
  cp fixturenet-laconicd-deployment/deployment.yml laconic-console-deployment/deployment.yml
  

• (Optional) Copy over an existing genesis file (.json) to data directory in deployment (fixturenet-laconicd-deployment/data/genesis-config):

  # Example
  cp genesis.json fixturenet-laconicd-deployment/data/genesis-config/genesis.json
  

Configuration

• Inside the fixturenet-laconicd-deployment deployment directory, open config.env file and set the following env variable:

  # Optional
  
  # Set to true to enable adding participants functionality of the onboarding module (default: false)
  ONBOARDING_ENABLED=
  
  # Staking amount to use for the default validator account (default: 1000000000000000)
  STAKING_AMOUNT=
  
  # Enable authority auctions (default: false)
  AUTHORITY_AUCTION_ENABLED=true
  
  # Authority auctions commits duration (in secs) (default: 1hr)
  AUTHORITY_AUCTION_COMMITS_DURATION=3600
  
  # Authority auctions reveals duration (in secs) (default: 1hr)
  AUTHORITY_AUCTION_REVEALS_DURATION=3600
  
  # Authority grace period (set bond to authority within this) (in secs) (default: 2 * 1hr)
  AUTHORITY_GRACE_PERIOD=7200
  
  # Node moniker (default: "localtestnet")
  MONIKER=
  
  # Chain ID of the network (default: "laconic_9000-1")
  CHAINID=
  
  # Minimum gas price in alnt to accept for transactions (default: "0.001")
  MIN_GAS_PRICE=
  

• Inside the laconic-console-deployment deployment directory, open config.env file and set following env variables:

  # Optional CLI configuration
  
  # laconicd user private key for txs
  CERC_LACONICD_USER_KEY=
  
  # laconicd bond id for txs
  CERC_LACONICD_BOND_ID=
  
  # Gas limit for txs (default: 200000)
  CERC_LACONICD_GAS=
  
  # Max fees for txs (default: 200alnt)
  CERC_LACONICD_FEES=
  
  # Gas price to use for txs (default: 0.001alnt)
  # Use for auto fees calculation, gas and fees not required to be set in that case
  # Reference: https://git.vdb.to/cerc-io/laconic-registry-cli#gas-and-fees
  CERC_LACONICD_GASPRICE=
  

Start the deployment

laconic-so deployment --dir fixturenet-laconicd-deployment start
laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-console-deployment start

Check status

• To list down and monitor the running containers:

  # With status
  docker ps -a
  
  # Follow logs for laconicd container
  laconic-so deployment --dir fixturenet-laconicd-deployment logs laconicd -f
  

• View the laconic console at http://localhost:8080

• Use the cli service for registry CLI operations:

  # Example
  laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-console-deployment exec cli "laconic registry status"
  

Perform operations

• Example (bond creation):

  # Get the PK from your node
  ALICE_PK=$(echo y | laconic-so deployment --dir fixturenet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd "laconicd keys export alice --unarmored-hex --unsafe")
  
  # Create a bond:
  laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-console-deployment exec cli "laconic registry bond create --type alnt --quantity 1000000000000 --user-key $ALICE_PK" | jq -r '.bondId'
  

Demo

• Follow the records-demo to try loading data into registry

Clean up

• Stop all services running in the background:

  # Stop the docker containers
  laconic-so deployment --dir fixturenet-laconicd-deployment stop
  

• To stop all services and also delete data:

  # Stop the docker containers
  laconic-so deployment --dir fixturenet-laconicd-deployment stop --delete-volumes
  
  # Remove deployment directory (deployment will have to be recreated for a re-run)
  sudo rm -r fixturenet-laconicd-deployment
