# Substrate Node Template
|
||||

|
||||
A fresh FRAME-based [Substrate](https://www.substrate.io/) node, ready for hacking :rocket:
|
||||
A standalone version of this template is available for each release of Polkadot in the [Substrate Developer Hub Parachain Template](https://github.com/substrate-developer-hub/substrate-parachain-template/) repository.
|
||||
The parachain template is generated directly at each Polkadot release branch form the [Node Template in Substreate](https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/tree/master/bin/node-template) upstream
|
||||
|
||||
It is usually best to to use the stand-alone version to start a new project.
|
||||
All bugs, suggestions, and feature requests should be made upstream in the [Substrate](https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/tree/master/bin/node-template) repository.
|

## Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the steps below to get started with the Node Template, or get it up and running right from
|
||||
your browser in just a few clicks using
|
||||
the [Substrate Playground](https://docs.substrate.io/playground/) :hammer_and_wrench:
|
||||
|
||||
### Using Nix
|
||||
|
||||
Install [nix](https://nixos.org/) and optionally [direnv](https://github.com/direnv/direnv) and
|
||||
[lorri](https://github.com/nix-community/lorri) for a fully plug and play experience for setting up
|
||||
the development environment. To get all the correct dependencies activate direnv `direnv allow` and
|
||||
lorri `lorri shell`.
|

### Rust Setup
|
||||
|
||||
First, complete the [basic Rust setup instructions](./docs/rust-setup.md).
|
||||
|
||||
### Run
|
||||
|
||||
Use Rust's native `cargo` command to build and launch the template node:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cargo run --release -- --dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
Depending on your operating system and Rust version, there might be additional packages required to compile this template.
|
||||
Check the [Install](https://docs.substrate.io/install/) instructions for your platform for the most common dependencies.
|
||||
Alternatively, you can use one of the [alternative installation](#alternatives-installations) options.
|
||||
|
||||
### Build

|
||||
The `cargo run` command will perform an initial build. Use the following command to build the node

You can generate and view the [Rust Docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-doc.html) for this template with this command:
|
||||
|
||||
The provided `cargo run` command will launch a temporary node and its state will be discarded after
|

you terminate the process. After the project has been built, there are other ways to launch the
|

node.
|

```sh

- Maintain state in a `tmp` folder while the node is running.

### Connect with Polkadot-JS Apps Front-end

Once the node template is running locally, you can connect it with **Polkadot-JS Apps** front-end
|

to interact with your chain. [Click

After you start the node template locally, you can interact with it using the hosted version of the [Polkadot/Substrate Portal](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/#/explorer?rpc=ws://localhost:9944) front-end by connecting to the local node endpoint.
|
||||
A hosted version is also available on [IPFS (redirect) here](https://dotapps.io/) or [IPNS (direct) here](ipns://dotapps.io/?rpc=ws%3A%2F%2F127.0.0.1%3A9944#/explorer).

### Runtime

In Substrate, the terms

"runtime" and "state transition function"

are analogous - they refer to the core logic of the blockchain that is responsible for validating
|
||||
blocks and executing the state changes they define. The Substrate project in this repository uses
|
||||
[FRAME](https://docs.substrate.io/main-docs/fundamentals/runtime-intro/#frame) to construct a
|
||||
blockchain runtime. FRAME allows runtime developers to declare domain-specific logic in modules
|
||||
called "pallets". At the heart of FRAME is a helpful
|
||||
[macro language](https://docs.substrate.io/reference/frame-macros/) that makes it easy to
|
||||
create pallets and flexibly compose them to create blockchains that can address
|
||||
[a variety of needs](https://substrate.io/ecosystem/projects/).

|
||||
[core Substrate repository](https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/tree/master/frame) and a

template pallet that is [defined in the `pallets`](./pallets/template/src/lib.rs) directory.

|
||||
|
||||
A FRAME pallet is compromised of a number of blockchain primitives:

- Storage: FRAME defines a rich set of powerful

[storage abstractions](https://docs.substrate.io/main-docs/build/runtime-storage/) that makes
|
||||
it easy to use Substrate's efficient key-value database to manage the evolving state of a
|
||||
blockchain.
|
||||
- Dispatchables: FRAME pallets define special types of functions that can be invoked (dispatched)
|
||||
from outside of the runtime in order to update its state.
|
||||
- Events: Substrate uses [events and errors](https://docs.substrate.io/main-docs/build/events-errors/)
|
||||
to notify users of important changes in the runtime.

||||
## Alternatives Installations

||||
|
||||
First, install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) and
|
||||
[Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/).
|
||||
Instead of installing dependencies and building this source directly, consider the following alternatives.

||||
|
||||
### Nix
|
||||
|
||||
Install [nix](https://nixos.org/), and optionally [direnv](https://github.com/direnv/direnv) and [lorri](https://github.com/nix-community/lorri) for a fully plug-and-play experience for setting up the development environment.
|
||||
To get all the correct dependencies, activate direnv `direnv allow` and lorri `lorri shell`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Docker
|
||||
|
||||
First, install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) and [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/).
|
||||
|
||||
Then run the following command to start a single node development chain.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
./scripts/docker_run.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This command will firstly compile your code, and then start a local development network. You can
|
||||
also replace the default command
|
||||
(`cargo build --release && ./target/release/node-template --dev --ws-external`)
|
||||
by appending your own. A few useful ones are as follow.

||||
This command compiles the code and starts a local development network.
|
||||
You can also replace the default command (`cargo build --release && ./target/release/node-template --dev --ws-external`) by appending your own.
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# Run Substrate node without re-compiling
|
||||
./scripts/docker_run.sh ./target/release/node-template --dev --ws-external
