Steps to setup a local network

Setting up a local network

Requirements

  • Download and install docker
  • Pull the goloop/gochain-icon image
  • Build goloop/gochain-icon locally or in the server that you would be running the multi-node network.
$ git clone https://github.com/icon-project/goloop.git
$ cd goloop
$ make gochain-icon-image

A prebuilt image is also available at iconcommunity/goloop. But a couple things to consider, this image might not be the latest version of goloop and if you use it it will be necessary to edit the docker compose files (.yml files) to point to iconcommunity/gochain instead of goloop/gochain-icon.

  • Verify generated image
$ docker images goloop/gochain-icon
REPOSITORY        TAG   IMAGE ID   CREATED     SIZE           
goloop/gochain-icon   latest 74676aec69ef   2 minutes ago   513MB

After successfully running these steps we now have the correct docker image of gochain-icon-image accessible on our local docker.

Move to another folder that you would like to use for setting up the root of your local network (in this tutorial we will be using ~/local-network/) and clone the gochain-local repository.

$ mkdir ~/local-network # or whatever directory you want
$ cd ~/local-network
$ git clone https://github.com/icon-project/gochain-local.git
$ cd gochain-local

Inside the gochain-local folder we have the necessary scripts and files that we will be using to run our local networks.

Usage

The following commands will allow you to start, stop or pause the docker containers either using local scripts or docker compose.

Using local scripts.

Start container

# This script runs the network in single-node mode
$ ./run_gochain.sh start
>>> START with compose-single.yml
Creating network "gochain-local_default" with the default driver
Creating gochain-iconee ... done

$ ./run_gochain.sh ps
  Name               Command           State

Stop container

$ ./run_gochain.sh stop
>>> STOP with compose-single.yml
Stopping gochain-iconee ... done
Removing gochain-iconee ... done
Removing network gochain-local_default

Pause container

$ ./run_gochain.sh pause

Unpause container

$ ./run_gochain.sh unpause

Using docker compose

There are two docker compose files that you can use for single node and multi-node networks.

  • compose-single.yml: run a single gochain node as the previous script example.
  • compose-multi.yml: run multiple (four) gochain nodes which validate the same blocks.

Create and start container

For single gochain node

Execute the following command to run the docker configuration of a single node local network.

$ docker compose -f compose-single.yml up -d
Creating network "gochain-local_default" with the default driver
Creating gochain-iconee ... done
$ docker-compose -f compose-single.yml ps
  Name               Command           State                       
   Ports
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  gochain-iconee   /entrypoint /bin/sh -c /go ...   Up  8080/tcp, 9080/tcp,
 0.0.0.0:9082->9082/tcp,:::9082->9082/tcp

For multiple gochain nodes

Execute the following command to run the docker configuration of a multi node local network.

$ docker compose -f compose-multi.yml up -d
[+] Running 5/5
 ⠿ Network gochain-local_default Create...                             0.0s
 ⠿ Container gochain-local-node3-1  Star...                               0.9s
 ⠿ Container gochain-local-node1-1  Star...                               0.9s
 ⠿ Container gochain-local-node0-1  Star...                               0.9s
 ⠿ Container gochain-local-node2-1  Star...                               0.6s

Execute the following command for docker to show a list of all the containerized nodes in the local network.

$ docker compose -f compose-multi.yml ps
NAME                COMMAND              SERVICE         STATUS          PORTS

gochain-local-node1-1   "/entrypoint /bin/sh…"   node1           running         0.0.0.0:9081->9080/tcp, :::9081->9080/tcp
gochain-local-node2-1   "/entrypoint /bin/sh…"   node2           running         0.0.0.0:9082->9080/tcp, :::9082->9080/tcp
gochain-local-node3-1   "/entrypoint /bin/sh…"   node3           running         0.0.0.0:9083->9080/tcp, :::9083->9080/tcp

Stop and remove container

$ docker-compose -f compose-single.yml down

or

$ docker-compose -f compose-multi.yml down

Persistence of data

To persist data across docker restarts you have to set GOCHAIN_CLEAN_DATA in ./data/single/iconee.env to false for single node setup or in the case of multi-nodes modify ./data/multi/common.env instead.
