Run a miner (Ubuntu 18.04)

To run a miner on Ubuntu, please use the following guide.

Open up the terminal and execute these commands:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install docker.io

Now it is time to pay attention, since we need to have all directories set up correctly.

Replace the following to match your local environment:

YOURDIRECTORY = (example: /var/lib/fusion)

YOURWALLETADDRESS = (example: '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000') | Note : Single quotes must not be removed.

NAMEOFYOURNODE = (example: MyFusionNode)

Type in: sudo nano runpsn.sh Paste the following line with your corresponding replacements:

sudo docker run -it -p 40408:40408 -v YOURDIRECTORY:/fusion-node fusionnetwork/efsn2 -u YOURWALLETADDRESS -e NAMEOFYOURNODE

Save the file by hitting CTRL+O and exit nano by pressing CTRL+X

We now have to make the file executable. Run the following command:

sudo chmod +x runpsn.sh

Put your keystore into YOURDIRECTORY. If the directory doesn't exist yet, create it like this:

sudo mkdir -p YOURDIRECTORY

Also put a file called password.txt into the same directory. It must contain only the password for the keystore.

Note: The password file must be named password.txt and the keystore file name must start with UTC...

Now start the miner by running:

sudo ./runpsn.sh

Your miner is now set up successfully. Note that you also have to buy tickets to participate in staking.

API Reference

The API reference can be found here

Building from source

Building efsn requires both a Go (version 1.11 or later) and a C compiler. You can install them using your favourite package manager.

On Ubuntu 18.04, run these commands to build efsn:

add-apt-repository ppa:longsleep/golang-backports
apt-get update
apt-get install golang-go build-essential
git clone https://github.com/FUSIONFoundation/efsn.git
cd efsn
make efsn

Executables

The fusion project comes with several wrappers/executables found in the cmd directory.

Command	Description
efsn	Our main Fusion CLI client. It is the entry point into the fusion network (main-, test- or private net), capable of running as a full node (default), archive node (retaining all historical state) or a light node (retrieving data live). It can be used by other processes as a gateway into the fusion network via JSON RPC endpoints exposed on top of HTTP, WebSocket and/or IPC transports. efsn --help and the CLI Wiki page for command line options.
abigen	Source code generator to convert Ethereum contract definitions into easy to use, compile-time type-safe Go packages. It operates on plain Ethereum contract ABIs with expanded functionality if the contract bytecode is also available. However it also accepts Solidity source files, making development much more streamlined. Please see our Native DApps wiki page for details.
bootnode	Stripped down version of our Fusion client implementation that only takes part in the network node discovery protocol, but does not run any of the higher level application protocols. It can be used as a lightweight bootstrap node to aid in finding peers in private networks.
evm	Developer utility version of the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) that is capable of running bytecode snippets within a configurable environment and execution mode. Its purpose is to allow isolated, fine-grained debugging of EVM opcodes (e.g. evm --code 60ff60ff --debug).
gethrpctest	Developer utility tool to support our ethereum/rpc-test test suite which validates baseline conformity to the Ethereum JSON RPC specs. Please see the test suite's readme for details.
rlpdump	Developer utility tool to convert binary RLP (Recursive Length Prefix) dumps (data encoding used by the Ethereum protocol both network as well as consensus wise) to user friendlier hierarchical representation (e.g. rlpdump --hex CE0183FFFFFFC4C304050583616263).
swarm	Swarm daemon and tools. This is the entrypoint for the Swarm network. swarm --help for command line options and subcommands. See Swarm README for more information.
puppeth	a CLI wizard that aids in creating a new Ethereum network.

Running fusion

Going through all the possible command line flags is out of scope here (please consult our CLI Wiki page), but we've enumerated a few common parameter combos to get you up to speed quickly on how you can run your own Efsn instance.

Full node on the main fusion network

By far the most common scenario is people wanting to simply interact with the Fusion network: create accounts; transfer funds; deploy and interact with contracts. For this particular use-case the user doesn't care about years-old historical data, so we can fast-sync quickly to the current state of the network. To do so:

$ efsn console

This command will:

• Start up efsn's built-in interactive JavaScript console, (via the trailing console subcommand) through which you can invoke all official web3 methods as well as Efsn's own management APIs. This tool is optional and if you leave it out you can always attach to an already running Efsn instance with efsn attach.

Programatically interfacing fusion nodes

As a developer, sooner rather than later you'll want to start interacting with efsn and the fusion network via your own programs and not manually through the console. To aid this, Efsn has built-in support for a JSON-RPC based APIs (standard APIs and Efsn specific APIs). These can be exposed via HTTP, WebSockets and IPC (unix sockets on unix based platforms, and named pipes on Windows).

The IPC interface is enabled by default and exposes all the APIs supported by Efsn, whereas the HTTP and WS interfaces need to manually be enabled and only expose a subset of APIs due to security reasons. These can be turned on/off and configured as you'd expect.

HTTP based JSON-RPC API options:

• --rpc Enable the HTTP-RPC server
• --rpcaddr HTTP-RPC server listening interface (default: "localhost")
• --rpcport HTTP-RPC server listening port (default: 8545)
• --rpcapi API's offered over the HTTP-RPC interface (default: "eth,net,web3")
• --rpccorsdomain Comma separated list of domains from which to accept cross origin requests (browser enforced)
• --ws Enable the WS-RPC server
• --wsaddr WS-RPC server listening interface (default: "localhost")
• --wsport WS-RPC server listening port (default: 8546)
• --wsapi API's offered over the WS-RPC interface (default: "eth,net,web3")
• --wsorigins Origins from which to accept websockets requests
• --ipcdisable Disable the IPC-RPC server
• --ipcapi API's offered over the IPC-RPC interface (default: "admin,debug,eth,miner,net,personal,shh,txpool,web3")
• --ipcpath Filename for IPC socket/pipe within the datadir (explicit paths escape it)

You'll need to use your own programming environments' capabilities (libraries, tools, etc) to connect via HTTP, WS or IPC to a Efsn node configured with the above flags and you'll need to speak JSON-RPC on all transports. You can reuse the same connection for multiple requests!

Note: Please understand the security implications of opening up an HTTP/WS based transport before doing so! Hackers on the internet are actively trying to subvert Fusion nodes with exposed APIs! Further, all browser tabs can access locally running webservers, so malicious webpages could try to subvert locally available APIs!

Operating a private network

Maintaining your own private network is more involved as a lot of configurations taken for granted in the official networks need to be manually set up.

Defining the private genesis state

First, you'll need to create the genesis state of your networks, which all nodes need to be aware of and agree upon. This consists of a small JSON file (e.g. call it genesis.json):

{
  "config": {
        "chainId": 0,
        "homesteadBlock": 0,
        "eip155Block": 0,
        "eip158Block": 0
    },
  "alloc"      : {},
  "coinbase"   : "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000",
  "difficulty" : "0x20000",
  "extraData"  : "",
  "gasLimit"   : "0x2fefd8",
  "nonce"      : "0x0000000000000042",
  "mixhash"    : "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000",
  "parentHash" : "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000",
  "timestamp"  : "0x00"
}

The above fields should be fine for most purposes, although we'd recommend changing the nonce to some random value so you prevent unknown remote nodes from being able to connect to you. If you'd like to pre-fund some accounts for easier testing, you can populate the alloc field with account configs:

"alloc": {
  "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000001": {"balance": "111111111"},
  "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000002": {"balance": "222222222"}
}

With the genesis state defined in the above JSON file, you'll need to initialize every Efsn node with it prior to starting it up to ensure all blockchain parameters are correctly set:

$ efsn init path/to/genesis.json

Creating the rendezvous point

With all nodes that you want to run initialized to the desired genesis state, you'll need to start a bootstrap node that others can use to find each other in your network and/or over the internet. The clean way is to configure and run a dedicated bootnode:

$ bootnode --genkey=boot.key
$ bootnode --nodekey=boot.key

With the bootnode online, it will display an enode URL that other nodes can use to connect to it and exchange peer information. Make sure to replace the displayed IP address information (most probably [::]) with your externally accessible IP to get the actual enode URL.

Note: You could also use a full fledged Efsn node as a bootnode, but it's the less recommended way.

Starting up your member nodes

With the bootnode operational and externally reachable (you can try telnet <ip> <port> to ensure it's indeed reachable), start every subsequent Efsn node pointed to the bootnode for peer discovery via the --bootnodes flag. It will probably also be desirable to keep the data directory of your private network separated, so do also specify a custom --datadir flag.

$ efsn --datadir=path/to/custom/data/folder --bootnodes=<bootnode-enode-url-from-above>

Note: Since your network will be completely cut off from the main and test networks, you'll also need to configure a miner to process transactions and create new blocks for you.
