# A) Setup
## Network Prerequisites
## 1) Install Golang (go)
- **TCP 26656** for Peer-to-Peer Network Communication
- **TCP 26660** for Prometheus Metrics (doesn't have to be exposed publicly)
1.1) Remove any existing installation of `go`
# Validator Setup
## Install required software packages
```sh
# Update Ubuntu
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade -y
# Install required software packages
sudo apt install git curl build-essential make jq -y
```
---
## Install Go
```sh
# Remove any existing installation of `go`
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go
```
1.2) Install latest/required Go version (installing `go1.17.2`)
# Install Go version 1.17.2
curl https://dl.google.com/go/go1.17.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz | sudo tar -C/usr/local -zxvf -
```
curl -O https://golang.org/dl/go1.17.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go && sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.17.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
```
1.3) Update env variables to include `go`
```
# Update env variables to include go
cat <<'EOF' >>$HOME/.profile
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
@ -47,131 +56,168 @@ EOF
source $HOME/.profile
```
1.4) Check the version of go installed
Check the version of go installed
```
```sh
go version
# Should return something like: go version go1.17.2 linux/amd64
```
### 2) Install required software packages
---
```
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install git curl build-essential make jq -y
```
## Install `chibaclonk`
### 3) Install `chibaclonk`
```
```sh
git clone https://github.com/vulcanize/chiba-clonk.git
cd chiba-clonk
# Checkout main branch
git fetch --all
git checkout main
# Build and install chibaclonk
make install
```
### 4) Verify your installation
Verify your installation
```
```sh
chibaclonkd version --long
```
On running the above command, you should see a similar response like this. Make sure that the *version* and *commit
hash* are accurate
```
```sh
name: chibaclonk
server_name: chibaclonkd
```
### 5) Initialize Node
---
## Initialize Validator Node
**Not required if you have already initialized before**
```
chibaclonkd init <your-node-moniker> --chain-id chibaclonk_81337-2
```sh
# Initialize the validator node
chibaclonkd init <your-node-moniker> --chain-id chibaclonk_81337-3
```
On running the above command, node will be initialized with default configuration. (config files will be saved in node's
default home directory (~/.chibaclonkd/config)
Running the above commands will initialize the validator node with default configuration. The config files will be saved in the default location (`~/.chibaclonkd/config`).
NOTE: Backup node and validator keys. You will need to use these keys at a later point in time.
**NOTE:** Backup your node and validator keys. You will need to use these keys at a later point in time.
---
## 6) Create Account keys
## Overwrite Validator Initialization from previous testnet
if you have participated in previous testnet and have mnemonic phrase, use below command to recover your account
**Required for `chibaclonk_81337-3`**
First we have to reset the previous genesis state (only because the `chibaclonk_81337-2` testnet failed) whereafter we can initialize the validator node for `chibaclonk_81337-3`
```sh
# Stop your node (in case it was still running)
systemctl stop chibaclonkd
# Keep a backup of your old validator directory
cp -a ~/.chibaclonkd ~/backup-chibaclonk_81337-2
# Reset the state of your validator
chibaclonkd tendermint unsafe-reset-all --home $HOME/.chibaclonkd
# Remove your previous genesis transactions
rm $HOME/.chibaclonkd/config/gentx/gentx*.json
# Overwrite your genesis state with the new chain-id
chibaclonkd init --overwrite <your-node-moniker> --chain-id chibaclonk_81337-3
```
Running the above commands will re-initialize the validator node with default configuration. The config files will be saved in the default location (`~/.chibaclonkd/config`).
**NOTE:** Backup your node and validator keys. You will need to use these keys at a later point in time.
---
## Create Account keys
If you have participated in a previous testnet and have a mnemonic phrase, use below command to recover your account:
```sh
chibaclonkd keys add <key-name> --recover
```
to create new account
To create a new account use:
```
```sh
chibaclonkd keys add <key-name>
```
NOTE: Save `mnemonic` and related account details (public key). You will need to use the need mnemonic/private key to
recover accounts at a later point in time.
**NOTE:** Save the `mnemonic` and related account details (public key). You will need to use the mnemonic and / or private key to recover accounts at a later point in time.
## 7) Add Genesis Account
**Note: don't add more than 12,900 CHK , if you add more than that, your gentx will be ignored.**
```
---
## Add Genesis Account
**NOTE:** Don't add more than 12,900 CHK , if you add more than that, your gentx will be ignored.
```sh
chibaclonkd add-genesis-account <key-name> 12900000000000000000000achk --keyring-backend os
```
## 8) Create Your `gentx`
Create Your `gentx` transaction file
```
```sh
chibaclonkd gentx <key-name> 12900000000000000000000achk \
--pubkey=$(chibaclonkd tendermint show-validator) \
--chain-id="chibaclonk_81337-2" \
--moniker="YOUR_MONIKER_NAME" \
--website="https://yourweb.site" \
--details="description of my validator" \
--chain-id="chibaclonk_81337-3" \
--moniker="<your-moniker-name>" \
--website="<your-validator-website>" \
--details="<your-validator-description>" \
--identity="<your-keybase-public-key>" \
--commission-rate="0.10" \
--commission-max-rate="0.20" \
--commission-max-change-rate="0.01" \
--min-self-delegation="1"
```
Note:
**NOTE:**
- `<key-name>` and `chain-id` are required. other flags are optional
- Don't change amount value while creating your gentx
- Don't change the amount value while creating your gentx
- Genesis transaction file will be saved in `~/.chibaclonkd/config/gentx` folder
## 9) Submit Your gentx
---
Submit your `gentx` file to the [testnets]() in the format of
## Submit Your gentx
Submit your `gentx` file to the [testnets]() repository in the following format:
`<validator-moniker>-gentx.json`
NOTE: (Do NOT use space in the file name)
**NOTE:** (Do NOT use spaces in the file name)
To submit the gentx file, follow the below process:
- Fork the [testnets]() repository
- Upload your gentx file in `chibaclonk_81337-2/config/gentxs` folder
- Upload your gentx file in `chibaclonk_81337-3/config/gentxs` folder
- Submit Pull Request to [testnets]() with name `ADD <your-moniker> gentx`
---
The genesis file will be published to [testnets/chibaclonk_81337-3]()
**Execute below instructions only after publishing of final genesis file**
# CONTINUE WITH BELOW STEPS ONLY AFTER GENESIS FILE HAS BEEN PUBLISHED
genesis file will be published to [testnets/chibaclonk_81337-2]()
## Adjust validator node configuration
# B) Starting the validator
```sh
# Set seed & peers variable
seeds="<seeds node list here>"
peers="<peers node list here>"
TBU
# Update seeds, persistent_peers and prometheus parameters in config.toml
sed -i.bak -e "s/^seeds *=.*/seeds = \"$seeds\"/; s/^persistent_peers *=.*/persistent_peers = \"$peers\"/; s/^prometheus *=.*/prometheus = true/" $HOME/.chibaclonkd/config/config.toml
## 3) Start the Node
#### 3.1) Start node as `systemctl` service
3.1.1) Create the service file Note: this step is not required if you did setup before
```
# Create systemd validator service
sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/chibaclonkd.service > /dev/null <<EOF

3.1.2) Load service and start
```

`NOTE:`
A helpful command here is `journalctl` that can be used to:
---
a) check logs
## Helpful Commands
```
```sh
# Check logs
journalctl -u chibaclonkd
```
b) most recent logs
```
# Most recent logs
journalctl -xeu chibaclonkd
```
c) logs from previous day
```
# Logs from previous day
journalctl --since "1 day ago" -u chibaclonkd
```
d) Check logs with follow flag
```
# Check logs with follow flag
journalctl -f -u chibaclonkd
# Check discovered peers
curl http://localhost:26657/net_info
# Check network consensus state
curl http://localhost:26657/consensus_state
