These are a few changes I missed during the refactoring.
1. Initialization issue and boilerplate
Most importantly: part of the `Configuration` initialization was done in `sc_cli::init`. This means the user can not benefit from this initialization boilerplate if they have multiple `Configuration` since `sc_cli::init` can only be called once.
2. Boilerplate for `VersionInfo` and `Configuration`
I'm also answering to the critic of @bkchr on the initialization using version: https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/4692/files/bea809d4c14a2ede953227ac885e3b3f9771c548#r372047238 This will allow initializing a `Configuration` and provide the version by default.
3. Loading the `chain_spec` explicitly
In the past it was done automatically but in some cases we want to delay this. I moved the code to `Configuration.load_spec()` so it can be called later on. `chain_spec` can also be written directly to the `Configuration` without using this `load_spec` helper.

5. Fixing issue that prevents the user to override the port
In the refactoring I introduced a bug by mistake that could potentially prevent the CLI user to override the ports if defaults where provided for these ports (only on cumulus).
6. Change task_executor from Box to Arc
This is useful for cumulus where we have 2 nodes with 2 separate Configuration that need to spawn tasks to the same runtime.
7. Renamed TasksExecutorRequired to TaskExecutor
For consistency.
This is related to https://github.com/paritytech/cumulus/issues/24
This is the continuation (and hopefully the end of) #4692
Substrate Node Template
A new SRML-based Substrate node, ready for hacking.
Build
Install Rust:
curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
Initialize your Wasm Build environment:
./scripts/init.sh
Build Wasm and native code:
cargo build --release
Run
Single node development chain
Purge any existing developer chain state:
./target/release/node-template purge-chain --dev
Start a development chain with:
./target/release/node-template --dev
Detailed logs may be shown by running the node with the following environment variables set: RUST_LOG=debug RUST_BACKTRACE=1 cargo run -- --dev.
Multi-node local testnet
If you want to see the multi-node consensus algorithm in action locally, then you can create a local testnet with two validator nodes for Alice and Bob, who are the initial authorities of the genesis chain that have been endowed with testnet units.
Optionally, give each node a name and expose them so they are listed on the Polkadot telemetry site.
You'll need two terminal windows open.
We'll start Alice's substrate node first on default TCP port 30333 with her chain database stored locally at /tmp/alice. The bootnode ID of her node is QmRpheLN4JWdAnY7HGJfWFNbfkQCb6tFf4vvA6hgjMZKrR, which is generated from the --node-key value that we specify below:
cargo run -- \
--base-path /tmp/alice \
--chain=local \
--alice \
--node-key 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 \
--telemetry-url ws://telemetry.polkadot.io:1024 \
--validator
In the second terminal, we'll start Bob's substrate node on a different TCP port of 30334, and with his chain database stored locally at /tmp/bob. We'll specify a value for the --bootnodes option that will connect his node to Alice's bootnode ID on TCP port 30333:
cargo run -- \
--base-path /tmp/bob \
--bootnodes /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/30333/p2p/QmRpheLN4JWdAnY7HGJfWFNbfkQCb6tFf4vvA6hgjMZKrR \
--chain=local \
--bob \
--port 30334 \
--telemetry-url ws://telemetry.polkadot.io:1024 \
--validator
Additional CLI usage options are available and may be shown by running cargo run -- --help.
