Introduction

Let's review some code examples on how to handle generic tasks:

• Initializing a Universe
• Setting a log level

Initializing a Universe

There are different Universes available, such as LOCAL, SUNSTONE, and BETANET. Typically, for development purposes we use LOCALHOST_SINGLENODE.

Available networks

Network	Description
LOCALHOST_SINGLENODE	A locally hosted single node connection.
BETANET_SINGLENODE	A single node Betanet connection.

To bootstrap to a network we call:

radixUniverse.bootstrap(RadixUniverse.LOCALHOST_SINGLENODE)

Setting a log level

In the following code snippet we set the log level to display errors only:

import { RadixLogger } from 'radixdlt' RadixLogger.setLevel('error')

{% hint style="info" %} Possible log level values are: trace, debug, info, warn, error. {% endhint %}
