* start working on building the real overseer Unfortunately, this fails to compile right now due to an upstream failure to compile which is probably brought on by a recent upgrade to rustc v1.47. * fill in AllSubsystems internal constructors * replace fn make_metrics with Metrics::attempt_to_register * update to account for #1740 * remove Metrics::register, rename Metrics::attempt_to_register * add 'static bounds to real_overseer type params * pass authority_discovery and network_service to real_overseer It's not straightforwardly obvious that this is the best way to handle the case when there is no authority discovery service, but it seems to be the best option available at the moment. * select a proper database configuration for the availability store db * use subdirectory for av-store database path * apply Basti's patch which avoids needing to parameterize everything on Block * simplify path extraction * get all tests to compile * Fix Prometheus double-registry error for debugging purposes, added this to node/subsystem-util/src/lib.rs:472-476: ```rust Some(registry) => Self::try_register(registry).map_err(|err| { eprintln!("PrometheusError calling {}::register: {:?}", std::any::type_name::<Self>(), err); err }), ``` That pointed out where the registration was failing, which led to this fix. The test still doesn't pass, but it now fails in a new and different way! * authorities must have authority discovery, but not necessarily overseer handlers * fix broken SpawnedSubsystem impls detailed logging determined that using the `Box::new` style of future generation, the `self.run` method was never being called, leading to dropped receivers / closed senders for those subsystems, causing the overseer to shut down immediately. This is not the final fix needed to get things working properly, but it's a good start. * use prometheus properly Prometheus lets us register simple counters, which aren't very interesting. It also allows us to register CounterVecs, which are. With a CounterVec, you can provide a set of labels, which can later be used to filter the counts. We were using them wrong, though. This pattern was repeated in a variety of places in the code: ```rust // panics with an cardinality mismatch let my_counter = register(CounterVec::new(opts, &["succeeded", "failed"])?, registry)?; my_counter.with_label_values(&["succeeded"]).inc() ``` The problem is that the labels provided in the constructor are not the set of legal values which can be annotated, but a set of individual label names which can have individual, arbitrary values. This commit fixes that. * get av-store subsystem to actually run properly and not die on first signal * typo fix: incomming -> incoming * don't disable authority discovery in test nodes * Fix rococo-v1 missing session keys * Update node/core/av-store/Cargo.toml * try dummying out av-store on non-full-nodes * overseer and subsystems are required only for full nodes * Reduce the amount of warnings on browser target * Fix two more warnings * InclusionInherent should actually have an Inherent module on rococo * Ancestry: don't return genesis' parent hash * Update Cargo.lock * fix broken test * update test script: specify chainspec as script argument * Apply suggestions from code review Co-authored-by: Bastian Köcher <bkchr@users.noreply.github.com> * Update node/service/src/lib.rs Co-authored-by: Bastian Köcher <bkchr@users.noreply.github.com> * node/service/src/lib: Return error via ? operator * post-merge blues * add is_collator flag * prevent occasional av-store test panic * simplify fix; expand application * run authority_discovery in Role::Discover when collating * distinguish between proposer closed channel errors * add IsCollator enum, remove is_collator CLI flag * improve formatting * remove nop loop * Fix some stuff * Adds test parachain adder collator * Add sudo to Rococo, change session length to 30 seconds and some renaming * Update to the latest changes on master * Some fixes * Fix compilation * Update parachain/test-parachains/adder/collator/src/lib.rs Co-authored-by: Sergei Shulepov <sergei@parity.io> * Review comments * Downgrade transaction version * Fixes * MOARE * Register notification protocols * utils: remove unused error * av-store: more resilient to some errors * address review nits * address more review nits Co-authored-by: Peter Goodspeed-Niklaus <peter.r.goodspeedniklaus@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Andronik Ordian <write@reusable.software> Co-authored-by: Fedor Sakharov <fedor.sakharov@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Robert Habermeier <robert@Roberts-MBP.lan1> Co-authored-by: Peter Goodspeed-Niklaus <coriolinus@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Max Inden <mail@max-inden.de> Co-authored-by: Sergey Shulepov <s.pepyakin@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Sergei Shulepov <sergei@parity.io>
Polkadot
Implementation of a https://polkadot.network node in Rust based on the Substrate framework.
NOTE: In 2018, we split our implementation of "Polkadot" from its development framework "Substrate". See the Substrate repo for git history prior to 2018.
This repo contains runtimes for the Polkadot, Kusama, and Westend networks. The README provides
information about installing the polkadot binary and developing on the codebase. For more
specific guides, like how to be a validator, see the
Polkadot Wiki.
Installation
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.
Installation from the debian or rpm repositories 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 customised 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.
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 polkadot
apt install polkadot
RPM-based (Fedora, CentOS)
Currently supports Fedora 32 and CentOS 8, and derivatives.
# Install dnf-plugins-core (This might already be installed)
dnf install dnf-plugins-core
# Add the repository and enable it
dnf config-manager --add-repo https://releases.parity.io/rpm/polkadot.repo
dnf config-manager --set-enabled polkadot
# Install polkadot (You may have to confirm the import of the GPG key, which
# should have the following fingerprint: 9D4B2B6EB8F97156D19669A9FF0812D491B96798)
dnf install polkadot
Building
Install via Cargo
If you want to install Polkadot in your PATH, you can do so with with:
cargo install --git https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot --tag <version> polkadot --locked
Build from Source
If you'd like to build from source, first install Rust. You may need to add Cargo's bin directory to your PATH environment variable. Restarting your computer will do this for you automatically.
curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
If you already have Rust installed, make sure you're using the latest version by running:
rustup update
Once done, finish installing the support software:
sudo apt install build-essential git clang libclang-dev pkg-config libssl-dev
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 that compilation is a memory intensive process. We recommend having 4 GiB of phyiscal RAM or swap available (keep in mind that if a build hits swap it tends to be very slow).
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").
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").
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").
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. See the claims instructions for Polkadot if you have DOTs to claim. For Westend's WND tokens, see the faucet instructions on the Wiki.
Hacking on Polkadot
If you'd actually like hack on Polkadot, you can grab the source code and build it. Ensure you have Rust and the support software installed. This script will install or update Rust and install the required dependencies (this may take up to 30 minutes on Mac machines):
curl https://getsubstrate.io -sSf | bash -s -- --fast
Then, grab the Polkadot source code:
git clone https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot.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).
./scripts/init.sh # Install WebAssembly. Update Rust
cargo build # Builds all native code
You can run the tests if you like:
cargo test --all
You can start a development chain with:
cargo run -- --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
Development
You can run a simple single-node development "network" on your machine by running:
polkadot --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 --chain=polkadot-local --alice -d /tmp/alice
And in the other, run:
polkadot --chain=polkadot-local --bob -d /tmp/bob --port 30334 --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.
