CENNZnet node based on Plug

There are a number of ways to run a CENNZnet node. Please choose one that suits best for your interest.

Make sure Docker is installed and running on your machine. If you need to install Docker, head over to Docker for Desktop first, get it installed, create an account and login. Make sure Docker is running in the background.

Now you can proceed to the terminal with the following command:

# Start a local validator on a development chain
$ docker run \
    -p 9933:9933 -p 9944:9944 \
    cennznet/cennznet:1.0.0 --dev --unsafe-ws-external --unsafe-rpc-external

Follow the steps to build and run a node from the source code.

For Linux (the example below is for Debian-based machines):

$ sudo apt install -y build-essential clang cmake gcc git libclang-dev libssl-dev pkg-config

For MacOS (via Homebrew):

$ brew install openssl cmake llvm

For Windows [TODO: may need a separate link]

Install Rust on your machine through here, and the following rust version and toolchains.

$ cargo --version
$ rustup install nightly
$ rustup target add --toolchain=nightly wasm32-unknown-unknown

Then clone the repo, build the binary and run it.

$ git clone https://github.com/cennznet/cennznet.git
$ cd cennznet
$ cargo build --release
$ ./target/release/cennznet --help

# start a validator node for development
$ ./target/release/cennznet --dev
