private-networks-deployment-scripts

This repository contains out-of-the-box deployment scripts for ethereum private PoA networks. There are 2 sandboxes - vagrant virtual machine and docker container setups, both can be used to create dev environment, initiate and run a private network. Puppeth network manager is used to create new network and generate genesis file.

The goal is to create 'out-of-box', 'one-click' solution for setting up new private ethereum network.

In progress:

Test, test, test ...
Find out why docker is so slow
Add netstat
Use only 1 folder with init-network.sh, try to avoid duplication.

Running vagrant VM

In the top level directory:

$ cd vagrant-vm
$ vagrant up
$ vagrant ssh
$ sudo -i
$ cd /home/ubuntu/Nnodes/
$ ./init-network.sh

Script will ask you to define a name of future network, amount of nodes, password for each node...

Running docker container

In the top level directory:

$ cd /home/Nnodes/docker-ctn
$ docker build -t $CONTAINER_NAME .
$ docker run -p 3000:3000 --name $CONTAINER_INSTANCE_NAME -i -t $CONTAINER_NAME
$ cd /home/Nnodes
$ ./init-network.sh

To connect to node console via IPC, please type

$ geth attach ipc:nodes/NODE_NUM/geth.ipc

Ethereum netstat

Additionally you can run an ether netstat to see your PoA network information.

In the 'Nnodes' directory:

$ cd netstat
$ ./init-netstat.sh

If network successfully started, you will see something like this on http://localhost:3000 Created network information

Please make sure port 3000 is free.
