Our PPoV blockchain is based on Juria which is a high-performance consortium blockchain with Hotstuff consensus mechanism and a transaction-based state machine.
Hotstuff provides a mechanism to rotate leader (block maker) efficiently among the validator nodes. Hence it is not required to have a single trusted leader in the network.
With the use of Hotstuff three-chain commit rule, Juria blockchain ensures that the same history of blocks is committed on all nodes despite network and machine failures.
You can run the cluster tests on local machine in a few seconds.
- Install dependencies
sudo apt-get install build-essential- Download and install
go 1.18 - Prepare the repo and run tests
cd tests
go run .The test script will compile cmd/chain and set up a cluster of 4 nodes with different ports on the local machine. Experiments from tests/experiments will be run and health checks will be performed throughout the tests.
NOTE: Network simulation experiments are only run on the remote linux cluster.
Modify the following global variables in the source code of tests/main.go.
NodeCount = 4 //your expected number of nodes
RemoteLinuxCluster = false
SetupClusterTemplate = trueThen execute the following command to generate the configuration files and startup commands required to start each local node.
cd tests && go run .The start command for each local node is displayed directly to the console as follows.
./chain -d workdir/local-clusters/cluster_template/0 -p 15150 -P 9040 --debug --storage-merkleBranchFactor 8 --execution-txExecTimeout 10s --execution-concurrentLimit 20 --chainID 0 --consensus-batchTxLimit 5000 --consensus-blockBatchLimit 4 --consensus-voteBatchLimit 4 --consensus-txWaitTime 1s --consensus-batchWaitTime 3s --consensus-proposeTimeout 1.5s --consensus-batchTimeout 1s --consensus-blockDelay 100ms --consensus-viewWidth 1m0s --consensus-leaderTimeout 20s
...Now, you can open 4 Shell windows and start each node in turn.
Modify the following global variables in the source code of tests/main.go.
NodeCount = 4 //your expected number of nodes
RemoteLinuxCluster = true
RemoteKeySSH = "~/.ssh/id_rsa"
RemoteHostsPath = "hosts"
SetupClusterTemplate = trueYou will also need to modify the tests/hosts file based on your remote node information. Each line corresponds to a node's IP address, username, NIC name and working directory and is separated by a tab.
Then execute the following command to generate the configuration files and startup commands required to start each remote node.
cd tests && go run .In the above command, we will also use scp to transfer the relevant files to the remote node. So the private key configured by RemoteKeySSH is required to be able to log in to the machine properly.
The start command for each remote node is displayed directly to the console. Now you can log in to the remote machine and start each blockchain node.
