The purpose of this testnet is that we want to create a fast testnet for Vietnamese Blockchain Developers. The tesnet is using Ethereum Proof Of Authority (same as Rinkeby), but Block Time is just two seconds.

Prerequisite

• Docker
• Docker Compose
• Git

Install Docker:

curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh

Install Docker Compose:

sudo curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.18.0/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Setup

Clone this source code:

git clone https://github.com/thanhson1085/VET.git

Enter VET directory, Create .pwd file

cd VET && touch .pwd

Edit .pwd file and input the password for your ethereum address if you want.

Create .env file by using the sample - .env.example file.

Contact me to know the value of WS_SECRET in .env file. (My FB: https://www.facebook.com/thanhson1085)

To access Docker sockets, make sure you are added to the group docker:

sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER

Remember to log out and login again for this to take effect.

Finally, just run:

docker-compose -f docker-stack.yml up -d

If you forgot to add yourself to the group docker and/or logout, you will see similar error:

$ docker-compose -f docker-stack.yml up -d
ERROR: Couldn't connect to Docker daemon at http+docker://localunixsocket - is it running?

If it's at a non-standard location, specify the URL with the DOCKER_HOST environment variable.

NOTE: For safety, do not run as root!

How to become a Validator?

There is not a official way for now. Just contact me via Facebook.
