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 up

Correct operation should be verified by checking the laconicd container's logs with:

$ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy logs

4. Get the multiaddress of miner node

The full nodes will need the multiaddress of the miner node to form a peer connection. Find the miner's multiaddress with:

$ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy exec lotus-miner "lotus net listen"
/ip4/192.168.160.4/tcp/44523/p2p/12D3KooWQiLfXiyQQY79Bn4Yhuti2PwekBc6cccp1rFpCo5WssLC
/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/44523/p2p/12D3KooWQiLfXiyQQY79Bn4Yhuti2PwekBc6cccp1rFpCo5WssLC

(Your node id will be different) Note the multiaddress and save it for a later step.

5. Start the miner

Import the key:

$ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy exec lotus-miner "lotus wallet import --as-default ~/.genesis-sectors/pre-seal-t01000.key"
imported key t3spusn5ia57qezc3fwpe3n2lhb4y4xt67xoflqbqy2muliparw2uktevletuv7gl4qakjpafgcl7jk2s2er3q successfully!

Init the miner (this will take several minutes):

$ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy exec lotus-miner "lotus-miner init --genesis-miner --actor=t01000 --sector-size=2KiB --pre-sealed-sectors=~/.genesis-sectors --pre-sealed-metadata=~/.genesis-sectors/pre-seal-t01000.json --nosync"

...

2023-05-08T15:48:32.660Z        INFO    main    lotus-miner/init.go:282 Miner successfully created, you can now start it with 'lotus-miner run'

Start the miner:

$ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy exec lotus-miner "lotus-miner run --nosync"

6. Connect the nodes

Connect each full node to the miner using the multiaddress from step 4.

$ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy exec lotus-node-1 "lotus net connect <MULTIADDRESS_OF_MINER>"
connect 12D3KooWQiLfXiyQQY79Bn4Yhuti2PwekBc6cccp1rFpCo5WssLC: success

$ laconic-so --stack fixturenet-lotus deploy exec lotus-node-2 "lotus net connect <MULTIADDRESS_OF_MINER>"
connect 12D3KooWQiLfXiyQQY79Bn4Yhuti2PwekBc6cccp1rFpCo5WssLC: success
