The Multiplex

Dependencies Installation

go mod verify 
go mod tidy
go mod download

• Requires go 1.16.5 or later
• Must setup chia-blockchain before using Multiplex

Manual Usage

Follow these steps for manual usage:

1. Deploy workers first
2. Run Redis Database Instance
3. Run Dispatcher
4. Run Mover
5. Give Jobs to Workers
6. View Queued Jobs

Or run automated script that follows step 1-4:

WORKERS=[number of workers] make run-multiplex

Deployment of Worker

Use this command to deploy workers.

WORKERS=[number of workers to deploy] make deploy-workers

Example

WORKERS=8 make deploy-workers

Run Redis Instance

docker pull redis
docker run --name redis-test-instance -p 6379:6379 -d redis

Run Dispatcher

Use this command to run the dispatcher.

go run ./job/dispatcher/main.go -workers=[number of available workers]

Example

go run ./job/dispatcher/main.go -workers=8 &

Run Mover

Use this command to run the dispatcher.

go run ./mover/move-worker/main.go &

Give job to worker

After configuring

• worker.yml for executable and logging directory
• pos.yml for proof of space task, run using this command

go run main.go add-job --task=[task name] --log-name=[log-output-name]

Example

For Proof of Space exec

go run main.go add-job  --task=pos --log-name=test-ssd1 --db-addr=192.168.3.1:6379 --local-drive=ssd1 

For Proof of Space multi-threaded exec

go run main.go add-job  --task=posv2 --log-name=test-ssd1 --db-addr=192.168.3.1:6379 --local-drive=ssd1 

View Queued Jobs

go run main.go view-queued-jobs

View Active Jobs

go run main.go view-active-jobs

Docker Usage

Follow these steps for dockerized usage:

1. Run make push-docker
2. Run docker-compose up
3. Configure pos.yml and worker.yml
4. Add job to worker
