Runs a Lotus Devnet using a mocked sectorbuilder which can be accesed as a real Lotus node through the API.
The devnet code is always tried to be update with Lotus latest master tag.
You can run the devnet with:
go run main.goThe devnet supports the following configuration:
-speed: Time in milliseconds that blocks are mined. Default is 100ms.-numminers: Number of miners. Default is 1. (Note: higher values is an experimental feature)-bigsectors: Miners will use 512Gib sector sizes. Default is true, if set to false miners will use 2Kib sectors-ipfsaddr: IPFS multiaddr to allow the client be connected to an IPFS node as a blockstorage.
All flags can be specified by environment variables using the TEXLOTUSDEVNET_ prefix. e.g: TEXLOTUSDEVNET_SPEED=1000
The Lotus Devnet was originally thought for integration tests in CI pipelines.
You can build the Docker image by running docker build ..
A public Docker image is hosted in DockerHub on every master commit.
Refer to textile/lotus-devnet.
For example, running a Lotus Devnet with 1.5s block generation speed:
docker run -e TEXLOTUSDEVNET_SPEED=1500 textile/lotus-devnetThis project is a work in progress. As such, there's a few things you can do right now to help out:
- Ask questions! We'll try to help. Be sure to drop a note (on the above issue) if there is anything you'd like to work on and we'll update the issue to let others know. Also get in touch on Slack.
- Open issues, file issues, submit pull requests!
- Perform code reviews. More eyes will help a) speed the project along b) ensure quality and c) reduce possible future bugs.
- Take a look at the code. Contributions here that would be most helpful are top-level comments about how it should look based on your understanding. Again, the more eyes the better.
- Add tests. There can never be enough tests.
