# Lotus Fixturenet Instructions for deploying a local Lotus (Filecoin) chain for development and testing purposes using laconic-stack-orchestrator. ## 1. Clone required repositories ``` $ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus setup-repositories ``` ## 2. Build the stack's packages and containers ``` $ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus build-containers ``` ## 3. Deploy the stack ``` $ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy --cluster lotus up ``` Correct operation should be verified by checking the container logs with: ``` $ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy logs lotus-miner $ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy logs lotus-node-1 $ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy logs lotus-node-2 ``` or by checking the chain status on each node: ``` $ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy exec lotus-miner "lotus status" $ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy exec lotus-node-1 "lotus status" $ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy exec lotus-node-2 "lotus status" ```
