# Vulcanize DB

## Development Setup
|
|
|
|
### Dependencies
|
|
|
|
- Go 1.9+
|
|
|
|
### Cloning the Repository
|
|
|
|
1. `git config --global url."git@github.com:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"`
|
|
- By default, `go get` does not work for private GitHub repos. This will fix that.
|
|
|
|
2. `go get github.com/8thlight/vulcanizedb`
|
|
3. `go get github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum`
|
|
- This will take a while and gives poor indication of progress.
|
|
4. `go install github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/cmd/geth`
|
|
|
|
### Creating/Using a Private Blockchain
|
|
|
|
Syncing the public blockchain takes many hours for the initial sync and will download 20+ GB of data.
|
|
Here are some instructions for creating a private blockchain that does not depend on having a network connection.
|
|
|
|
1. Run `./scripts/setup` to create a private blockchain with a new account.
|
|
* This will result in a warning.
|
|
2. Run `./scripts/start_private_blockchain`.
|
|
|
|
### Connecting to the Public Blockchain
|
|
|
|
`./scripts/start_blockchain`
|
|
|
|
## Running Listener
|
|
|
|
1. Start a blockchain.
|
|
2. In a separate terminal start listener (ipcDir location)
|
|
- `go run main.go --ipcPath /path/to/file.ipc`
|
|
|
|
### IPC File Paths
|
|
|
|
The default location for the Ethereum blockchain to be stored is:
|
|
- `$HOME/Library/Ethereum` for Mac
|
|
- `$HOME/.ethereum` for Ubuntu
|
|
- `$GOPATH/src/gihub.com/8thlight/vulcanizedb/test_data_dir/geth.ipc` for private blockchain.
|
|
|
|
## Running the Tests
|
|
|
|
### Integration Test
|
|
|
|
In order to run the integration tests, you will need to run them against a real blockchain.
|
|
|
|
1. Run `./scripts/start_private_blockchain` as a separate process.
|
|
2. `go test ./...`
|
|
|
|
### Unit Tests
|
|
|
|
`go test ./core` |
