ethereum-genesis-generator

Create a ethereum consensus/execution layer testnet genesis and optionally expose it via a web server for testing purposes.

Examples

Create a new file with your custom configuration in ./config/values.env. You can use the defaults.env file as a template.

# Create the output directory
mkdir output

# Overwriting the config files and generating the EL and CL genesis
docker run --rm -it -u $UID -v $PWD/output:/data \
  -v $PWD/config/values.env:/config/values.env \
  ethpandaops/ethereum-genesis-generator:master all

# Just creating the EL genesis
docker run --rm -it -u $UID -v $PWD/output:/data \
  -v $PWD/config/values.env:/config/values.env \
  ethpandaops/ethereum-genesis-generator:master el

# Just creating the CL genesis
docker run --rm -it -u $UID -v $PWD/output:/data \
  -v $PWD/config/values.env:/config/values.env \
  ethpandaops/ethereum-genesis-generator:master cl

Environment variables

Besides that, you can also use ENV vars in your configuration files. One way of doing this is via the values.env configuration file. These will be replaced during runtime.

Shadow Fork

If shadow fork from file is the preferred option, then please ensure the latest block json response is collected along with transactions. This can be done with the below call for example:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data-raw '{ "jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBlockByNumber", "params":[ "latest", true ], "id":1 }' localhost:8545
