Compile and install test node

Install and run test node on Ubunty 16.04. If you want to use other OS, please follow instructions from https://github.com/steemit/steem/blob/master/doc/building.md

1. Install steem (a part of instruction from building.md)

This part is taken from https://github.com/steemit/steem/blob/master/doc/building.md#building-on-ubuntu-1604.

Run

sudo apt-get install -y \
    autoconf \
    automake \
    cmake \
    g++ \
    git \
    libssl-dev \
    libtool \
    make \
    pkg-config \
    python3 \
    python3-jinja2

Run

sudo apt-get install -y \
    libboost-chrono-dev \
    libboost-context-dev \
    libboost-coroutine-dev \
    libboost-date-time-dev \
    libboost-filesystem-dev \
    libboost-iostreams-dev \
    libboost-locale-dev \
    libboost-program-options-dev \
    libboost-serialization-dev \
    libboost-signals-dev \
    libboost-system-dev \
    libboost-test-dev \
    libboost-thread-dev

Run (optional, for developers)

sudo apt-get install -y \
    doxygen \
    libncurses5-dev \
    libreadline-dev \
    perl

Run (make steemd)

cd $HOME
git clone https://github.com/steemit/steem
cd steem
git submodule update --init --recursive
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make -j$(nproc) steemd

2. Checkout and making the bbt_plugin

cd $HOME
git clone https://github.com/bubbletone/bbt_steem

3. Test cycle

Info

# All packages and code for test node will reside in $HOME/steem (main steem code) and $HOME/bbt_steem (bbt plugin). Now, bbt_plugin(bbt_steem/libraries/) is simply copied over steem/libraries/plugins/bbt_plugin every time we update the source

Run

cd $HOME/bbt_steem
# edit code...
# edit code...
$HOME/bbt_steem/steem_testnet/rebuild_steemd_with_plugin.sh

Info

Compiled steemd daemon uses config.ini from bbt_steem/steem_testnet/config.ini, and this config is copied to steemd workind dir every run, to make first simple test cycle.

Run (test steemd daemon)

cd $HOME/steem/build
$HOME/bbt_steem/steem_testnet/testrun_steemd.sh

Info

Now we can test working node, sending several request to it. Full requests pack for test is placed in steem_testnet/tests/bbtone_test1.py. steemd with config runs as websockets server, opened on 8090 port (look into steemd logs for exact info). So testing one singel API can be made with simple curl request.

# first, you need to get API ID, assigned by steemd to bbt_plugin_api (number of APIs family). 
# Be careful, first API_NUM == 1 (first param in "params")
curl --data '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "params": [1, "get_api_by_name", ["bbtone_api"]], "id":1, "method":"call"}' http://127.0.0.1:8090

# If result is something like '{"id": 1, "result": 4}' - then API_NUM for bbtone_api is '4'.
# You should use this API_NUM in all bbtone_api calls in future as first argument in "params"

# for example: 
curl --data '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "params": [4, "get_service_offers_by_operator_name", ["initminer", 42]], "id":2, "method":"call"}' http://127.0.0.1:8090

API interfaces and parameters can be found in bbtone_plugin.hpp/bbtone_plugin.cpp
