An all-powerful toolset for 01coin.
Sentinel is an autonomous agent for persisting, processing and automating 01coin governance objects and tasks, and for expanded functions in upcoming 01coin releases.
Sentinel is implemented as a Python application that binds to a local version 0.12.3 zerooned instance on each 01coin Masternode.
This guide covers installing Sentinel onto an existing Masternode in Ubuntu 14.04 / 16.04.
The following detailed steps are all condensed into ONE easy command that you can take advantage of if your 01coin Masternode was previously installed using the scripts provided by the 01coin community (NB: the script requires you have sudo/root password), or manually using the same installation method as the scripts.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zocteam/sentinel/master/sentinel-one-line-installer.sh && chmod +x sentinel-one-line-installer.sh && ./sentinel-one-line-installer.sh
Make sure Python version 2.7.x or above is installed:
python --version
Update system packages and ensure virtualenv is installed:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get -y install python-virtualenv virtualenv
Clone the Sentinel repo and install Python dependencies.
$ git clone https://github.com/zocteam/sentinel.git zoc_sentinel && cd zoc_sentinel
$ virtualenv ./venv
$ ./venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
Set up a crontab entry to call Sentinel every minute:
$ crontab -e
In the crontab editor, add the lines below, replacing '$HOME/sentinel' to the path where you cloned sentinel to:
* * * * * cd $HOME/zoc_sentinel && SENTINEL_DEBUG=1 ./venv/bin/python bin/sentinel.py >> zoc_sentinel.log >/dev/null 2>&1
Test the config by running all tests from the sentinel folder you cloned into
$ ./venv/bin/py.test ./test
With all tests passing and crontab setup, Sentinel will stay in sync with zerooned and the installation is complete
An alternative (non-default) path to the zeroone.conf
file can be specified in sentinel.conf
:
zeroone_conf=/path/to/zeroone.conf
To view debug output, set the SENTINEL_DEBUG
environment variable to anything non-zero, then run the script manually:
$ SENTINEL_DEBUG=1 ./venv/bin/python bin/sentinel.py
Please follow the DashCore guidelines for contributing.
Specifically:
-
To contribute a patch, the workflow is as follows:
- Fork repository
- Create topic branch
- Commit patches
In general commits should be atomic and diffs should be easy to read. For this reason do not mix any formatting fixes or code moves with actual code changes.
Commit messages should be verbose by default, consisting of a short subject line (50 chars max), a blank line and detailed explanatory text as separate paragraph(s); unless the title alone is self-explanatory (like "Corrected typo in main.cpp") then a single title line is sufficient. Commit messages should be helpful to people reading your code in the future, so explain the reasoning for your decisions. Further explanation here.
