laconicd-full-node

Instructions for running a laconicd testnet full node and joining as a validator

Prerequisites

Minimum hardware requirements:

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:

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

Clone required repositories:

laconic-so --stack /home/prathamesh/deepstack/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconicd-full-node setup-repositories

Build the container images:
```
laconic-so --stack /home/prathamesh/deepstack/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconicd-full-node build-containers
```
This should create the following docker images locally:
- cerc/laconic2d
- cerc/laconic-registry-cli
- cerc/webapp-base
- cerc/laconic-console-host

Create a deployment

Create a spec file for the deployment:

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

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

...
network:
  # TODO: UPDATE
  ports:
    laconicd:
      - '6060:6060'
      - '26657:26657'
      - '26656:26656'
      - '9473:9473'
      - '9090:9090'
      - '1317:1317'

Create a deployment from the spec file:

laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconicd-full-node deploy create --spec-file  laconic-full-node-spec.yml --deployment-dir laconic-full-node-deployment

(Optional) Copy over the genesis file (.json) to config data directory in deployment (laconic-full-node-deployment/data/laconicd-data/config):

# Example
mkdir -p laconic-full-node-deployment/data/laconicd-data/config
cp genesis.json laconic-full-node-deployment/data/laconicd-config/genesis.json

Configuration

Inside the deployment directory, open config.env file and set following env variables:

# 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=

# Genesis file URL
# Not required if a genesis file is placed in the config data directory in previous steps
CERC_GENESIS_FILE_URL=

# Output log level (default: info)
CERC_LOGLEVEL=

Start the deployment

laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-full-node-deployment start

Check status

To list down and monitor the running containers:

# With status
docker ps -a

# Check logs for a container
docker logs -f <CONTAINER_ID>

Check the sync status of your node:

docker exec -it <LACONICD_CONTAINER_ID> status | jq .sync_info

Join as testnet validator

Clean up

Stop all services running in the background:

# Stop the docker containers
laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-full-node-deployment stop

To stop all services and also delete data:

# Stop the docker containers
laconic-so deployment --dir laconic-full-node-deployment stop --delete-volumes

# Remove deployment directory (deployment will have to be recreated for a re-run)
rm -r laconic-full-node-deployment
