Deploying a Fetch.AI node
Supported platforms
- MacOS Darwin 10.13x and higher (64bit)
- Ubuntu 18.04 (x86_64)
We plan to support all major platforms in the future.
Requirements
Before you can get going, make sure you’ve got the following requirements installed.
If you’re on Mac, you’ll need to install openssl:
brew install cmake openssl
If you’re on Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev cmake python3-dev clang
With those requirements fulfilled, download our ledger from our release branch. You are also going to need to download the following submodules:
git clone https://github.com/fetchai/ledger.git
cd ledger
mkdir build
git submodule update --init --recursive
You might want to checkout the branch v0.3.1-rc1 you may need to git fetch to see it, but this is our latest stable.
Building the code
The project uses cmake so follow this build procedure:
cd build
cmake ../
make -j
Running a single node locally
Open terminal and go to the build directory within the ledger directory.
./apps/constellation/constellation -block-interval 3000 -standalone -port 8000
Running a private network
Open terminal and go to the build directory within the ledger directory.
In one terminal window:
./apps/constellation/constellation -block-interval 3000 -private-network -port 8020 -peers tcp://127.0.0.1:8001
In another terminal window:
./apps/constellation/constellation -block-interval 3000 -private-network -port 8040 -peers tcp://127.0.0.1:8021
