Introduction

This README contains description of the examples how to build and configure a validator node in net.ton.dev blockchain. The instructions and scripts below were verified on Ubuntu 18.04.

Recommended	16	32	1000	1

Instructions

1. Build Node

Adjust (if needed) net.ton.dev/scripts/env.sh

Build a node:

$ cd net.ton.dev/scripts/ && ./build.sh

2. Setup Node

Initialize a node:

$ cd net.ton.dev/scripts/ && ./setup.sh

3. Run Node

Run the node:

$ cd net.ton.dev/scripts/ && ./run.sh

Wait until the node is synced with the masterchain. Depending on network throughput this step may take significant time (up to several hours).

4. Create Wallet

Create a wallet:

$ cd net.ton.dev/scripts/ && ./create_wallet.sh

Details about just created wallet will be available at ~/ton-keys/$(hostname -s)-dump

5. Deploy Wallet

Deploy the wallet (the node should be in sync with the masterchain):

$ cd net.ton.dev/scripts/ && ./deploy_wallet.sh

6. Run Validator

Run the validator script (each 60 sec.), specify a validator stake as first argument (default: 100000):

$ cd net.ton.dev/scripts/
$ watch -n 60 ./validator.sh 50000 >> ./validator.log 2>&1
