# testnet-laconicd
Instructions for running a laconicd testnet full node and joining as a validator
## Prerequisites
* Minimum hardware requirements:
```bash
RAM: 8-16GB
Disk space: 200GB
CPU: 2 cores
```
* Testnet genesis file (file or an URL) and peer node addresses
## Setup
* Clone the stack repo:
```bash
laconic-so fetch-stack git.vdb.to/cerc-io/testnet-laconicd-stack
```
* Clone required repositories:
```bash
# laconicd
laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/testnet-laconicd setup-repositories --pull
# laconic cli and console
laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconic-console setup-repositories --pull
# If this throws an error as a result of being already checked out to a branch/tag in a repo, remove the repositories and re-run the command
```
* Build the container images:
```bash
# laconicd
laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/testnet-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 a spec file for the deployment:
```bash
laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/testnet-laconicd deploy init --output testnet-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 both the spec files to map container ports to host ports as required:
```bash
# testnet-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 deployments from the spec files:
```bash
laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/testnet-laconicd deploy create --spec-file testnet-laconicd-spec.yml --deployment-dir testnet-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 testnet-laconicd-deployment/deployment.yml laconic-console-deployment/deployment.yml
```
* Copy over the published testnet genesis file (`.json`) to data directory in deployment (`testnet-laconicd-deployment/data/laconicd-data/tmp`):
```bash
# Example
mkdir -p testnet-laconicd-deployment/data/laconicd-data/tmp
cp genesis.json testnet-laconicd-deployment/data/laconicd-data/tmp/genesis.json
```
## Configuration
* Inside the `testnet-laconicd-deployment` deployment directory, open `config.env` file and set following env variables:
```bash
# Comma separated list of nodes to keep persistent connections to
# Example: "node-1-id@node-1-host:26656,node-2-id@node-2-host:26656"
CERC_PEERS=""
# Optional
# A custom human readable name for this node (default: TestnetNode)
CERC_MONIKER=
# Network chain ID (default: laconic_9000-1)
CERC_CHAIN_ID=
# Output log level (default: info)
CERC_LOGLEVEL=
# 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:
```bash
# All optional
# CLI configuration
# laconicd chain id (default: laconic_9000-1)
CERC_LACONICD_CHAIN_ID=
# 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=
# Console configuration
# Laconicd (hosted) GQL endpoint (default: http://localhost:9473)
LACONIC_HOSTED_ENDPOINT=
```
Note: Use `host.docker.internal` as host to access ports on the host machine
## Start the deployments
```bash
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment start
laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-console-deployment start
```
## Check status
* To list down and monitor the running containers:
```bash
# With status
docker ps -a
# Follow logs for laconicd container
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment logs laconicd -f
```
* Check the sync status of your node:
```bash
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd "laconicd status | jq .sync_info"
# `catching_up: false` indicates that node is completely synced
```
* View the laconic console at <http://localhost:8080>
* Use the cli service for registry CLI operations:
```bash
# Example
laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-console-deployment exec cli "laconic registry status"
```
## Join as testnet validator
* Create / import a new key pair:
```bash
# Create new keypair
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd "laconicd keys add <key-name>"
# OR
# Restore existing key with mnemonic seed phrase
# You will be prompted to enter mnemonic seed
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd "laconicd keys add <key-name> --recover"
# Query the keystore for your account's address
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd "laconicd keys show <key-name> -a"
```
* Request tokens from the testnet faucet for your account if required
* Check balance for your account:
```bash
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd "laconicd query bank balances <account-address>"
```
* Create required validator configuration:
```bash
# Note:
# Edit the staking amount and other fields as required
# Replace <your-node-moniker> with your node's moniker in command below
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd 'cat <<EOF > my-validator.json
{
"pubkey": $(laconicd cometbft show-validator),
"amount": "900000000alnt",
"moniker": "<your-node-moniker>",
"commission-rate": "0.1",
"commission-max-rate": "0.2",
"commission-max-change-rate": "0.01",
"min-self-delegation": "1"
}
EOF'
```
* Create a validator:
```bash
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd 'laconicd tx staking create-validator my-validator.json \
--fees 500000alnt \
--chain-id=laconic_9000-1 \
--from <key-name>'
```
* View validators:
```bash
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd "laconicd query staking validators"
```
* Check that in the list of validators `<your-node-moniker>` exists
## Perform operations
* To perform txs against the chain using registry CLI, set your private key in config in the CLI container:
```bash
# (Optional) Get the PK from your node
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment exec laconicd "laconicd keys export <key-name> --unarmored-hex --unsafe"
# Set your PK as 'userKey' in the config file
laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-console-deployment exec cli "nano config.yml"
# services:
# registry:
# ...
# userKey: "<your-private-key>"
# ...
# Note: any changes made to the config will be lost when the cli Docker container is brought down
# So set / update the values in 'laconic-console-deployment/config.env' accordingly before restarting
```
* Adjust / set other config values (`bondId`, `gas`, `fees`) as required and perform txs:
```bash
# Example
laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-console-deployment exec cli "laconic registry bond create --type alnt --quantity 1000000000000"
```
## Clean up
* Stop all `testnet-laconicd` services running in the background:
```bash
# Stop the docker containers
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment stop
```
* To stop all services and also delete data:
```bash
# Stop the docker containers
laconic-so deployment --dir testnet-laconicd-deployment stop --delete-volumes
# Remove deployment directory (deployment will have to be recreated for a re-run)
rm -r testnet-laconicd-deployment
```
