This PR refactors the staking ledger logic to encapsulate all reads and mutations of `Ledger`, `Bonded`, `Payee` and stake locks within the `StakingLedger` struct implementation. With these changes, all the reads and mutations to the `Ledger`, `Payee` and `Bonded` storage map should be done through the methods exposed by StakingLedger to ensure the data and lock consistency of the operations. The new introduced methods that mutate and read Ledger are: - `ledger.update()`: inserts/updates a staking ledger in storage; updates staking locks accordingly (and ledger.bond(), which is synthatic sugar for ledger.update()) - `ledger.kill()`: removes all Bonded and StakingLedger related data for a given ledger; updates staking locks accordingly; `StakingLedger::get(account)`: queries both the `Bonded` and `Ledger` storages and returns a `Option<StakingLedger>`. The pallet impl exposes fn ledger(account) as synthatic sugar for `StakingLedger::get(account)`. Retrieving a ledger with `StakingLedger::get()` can be done by providing either a stash or controller account. The input must be wrapped in a `StakingAccount` variant (Stash or Controller) which is treated accordingly. This simplifies the caller API but will eventually be deprecated once we completely get rid of the controller account in staking. However, this refactor will help with the work necessary when completely removing the controller. Other goals: - No logical changes have been introduced in this PR; - No breaking changes or updates in wallets required; - No new storage items or need to perform storage migrations; - Centralise the changes to bonds and ledger updates to simplify the OnStakingUpdate updates to the target list (related to https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/443) Note: it would be great to prevent or at least raise a warning if `Ledger<T>`, `Payee<T>` and `Bonded<T>` storage types are accessed outside the `StakingLedger` implementation. This PR should not get blocked by that feature, but there's a tracking issue here https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/149 Related and step towards https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/443
Polkadot
Implementation of a https://polkadot.network node in Rust based on the Substrate framework.
The README provides information about installing the polkadot binary and developing on the codebase. For more specific
guides, like how to run a validator node, see the Polkadot Wiki.
Installation
Using a pre-compiled binary
If you just wish to run a Polkadot node without compiling it yourself, you may either run the latest binary from our releases page, or install Polkadot from one of our package repositories.
Debian-based (Debian, Ubuntu)
Currently supports Debian 10 (Buster) and Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal), and derivatives. Run the following
commands as the root user.
# Import the security@parity.io GPG key
gpg --recv-keys --keyserver hkps://keys.mailvelope.com 9D4B2B6EB8F97156D19669A9FF0812D491B96798
gpg --export 9D4B2B6EB8F97156D19669A9FF0812D491B96798 > /usr/share/keyrings/parity.gpg
# Add the Parity repository and update the package index
echo 'deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/parity.gpg] https://releases.parity.io/deb release main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/parity.list
apt update
# Install the `parity-keyring` package - This will ensure the GPG key
# used by APT remains up-to-date
apt install parity-keyring
# Install polkadot
apt install polkadot
Installation from the Debian repository will create a systemd service that can be used to run a
Polkadot node. This is disabled by default, and can be started by running systemctl start polkadot
on demand (use systemctl enable polkadot to make it auto-start after reboot). By default, it will
run as the polkadot user. Command-line flags passed to the binary can be customized by editing
/etc/default/polkadot. This file will not be overwritten on updating Polkadot. You may also just
run the node directly from the command-line.
Building
Since the Polkadot node is based on Substrate, first set up your build environment according to the Substrate installation instructions.
Install via Cargo
Make sure you have the support software installed from the Build from Source section below this section.
If you want to install Polkadot in your PATH, you can do so with:
cargo install --git https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk --tag <version> polkadot --locked
Build from Source
Build the client by cloning this repository and running the following commands from the root directory of the repo:
git checkout <latest tagged release>
./scripts/init.sh
cargo build --release
Note: if you want to move the built polkadot binary somewhere (e.g. into $PATH) you will also
need to move polkadot-execute-worker and polkadot-prepare-worker. You can let cargo do all this
for you by running:
cargo install --path . --locked
Build from Source with Docker
You can also build from source using Parity CI docker image:
git checkout <latest tagged release>
docker run --rm -it -w /shellhere/polkadot \
-v $(pwd):/shellhere/polkadot \
paritytech/ci-linux:production cargo build --release
sudo chown -R $(id -u):$(id -g) target/
If you want to reproduce other steps of CI process you can use the following guide.
Networks
This repo supports runtimes for Polkadot, Kusama, and Westend.
Connect to Polkadot Mainnet
Connect to the global Polkadot Mainnet network by running:
../target/release/polkadot --chain=polkadot
You can see your node on [telemetry] (set a custom name with --name "my custom name").
telemetry: https://telemetry.polkadot.io/#list/Polkadot
Connect to the "Kusama" Canary Network
Connect to the global Kusama canary network by running:
../target/release/polkadot --chain=kusama
You can see your node on [telemetry] (set a custom name with --name "my custom name").
telemetry: https://telemetry.polkadot.io/#list/Kusama
Connect to the Westend Testnet
Connect to the global Westend testnet by running:
../target/release/polkadot --chain=westend
You can see your node on [telemetry] (set a custom name with --name "my custom name").
telemetry: https://telemetry.polkadot.io/#list/Westend
Obtaining DOTs
If you want to do anything on Polkadot, Kusama, or Westend, then you'll need to get an account and some DOT, KSM, or WND tokens, respectively. Follow the instructions on the Wiki to obtain tokens for your testnet of choice.
Hacking on Polkadot
If you'd actually like to hack on Polkadot, you can grab the source code and build it. Ensure you have Rust and the support software installed.
Then, grab the Polkadot source code:
git clone https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk.git
cd polkadot
Then build the code. You will need to build in release mode (--release) to start a network. Only
use debug mode for development (faster compile times for development and testing).
cargo build
You can run the tests if you like:
cargo test --workspace --profile testnet
# Or run only the tests for specified crated
cargo test -p <crate-name> --profile testnet
You can start a development chain with:
cargo run --bin polkadot -- --dev
Detailed logs may be shown by running the node with the following environment variables set:
RUST_LOG=debug RUST_BACKTRACE=1 cargo run --bin polkadot -- --dev
Development
You can run a simple single-node development "network" on your machine by running:
cargo run --bin polkadot --release -- --dev
You can muck around by heading to https://polkadot.js.org/apps and choose "Local Node" from the Settings menu.
Local Two-node Testnet
If you want to see the multi-node consensus algorithm in action locally, then you can create a local testnet. You'll need two terminals open. In one, run:
polkadot --dev --alice -d /tmp/alice
And in the other, run:
polkadot --dev --bob -d /tmp/bob --bootnodes '/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/30333/p2p/ALICE_BOOTNODE_ID_HERE'
Ensure you replace ALICE_BOOTNODE_ID_HERE with the node ID from the output of the first terminal.
Monitoring
Once you set this up you can take a look at the Polkadot Grafana dashboards that we currently maintain.
