###Antshares Blockchain Bookkeeping Node Deployment in Linux

  1. System
  • CPU: Dual-Core
  • RAM: 4G+
  • Bandwidth: 5M+
  • OS:
AntSharesUI AntSharesDaemon Miner
Ubuntu 14.04 ✅ ✅
Ubuntu 16.04 ✅ ✅

  1. Linux Deployment Explained

The bookkeeping program is currently written in C#, thus an appropriate running environment is required to successfully run in Linux. The deployment comprises 2 steps.

  • Complete .Net Core running environment
  • Bookkeeping Node Deployment
  1. For .Net Core environment, check: .Net Core
  • Ubuntu 14.04
    • sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://apt-mo.trafficmanager.net/repos/dotnet-release/ trusty main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dotnetdev.list'
    • sudo apt-key adv --keyserver apt-mo.trafficmanager.net --recv-keys 417A0893
    • sudo apt-get update
    • sudo apt-get install dotnet-dev-1.0.0-preview2-003131
  • Ubuntu 16.04
    • sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://apt-mo.trafficmanager.net/repos/dotnet-release/ trusty main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dotnetdev.list'
    • sudo apt-key adv --keyserver apt-mo.trafficmanager.net --recv-keys 417A0893
    • sudo apt-get update
    • sudo apt-get install dotnet-dev-1.0.0-preview2-003131
  • CentOS 7.1
    • sudo yum install libunwind libicu
    • curl -sSL -o dotnet.tar.gz https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=827529
    • sudo mkdir -p /opt/dotnet && sudo tar zxf dotnet.tar.gz -C /opt/dotnet
    • sudo ln -s /opt/dotnet/dotnet /usr/local/bin
  • RedHat Enterprise Linux 7 Server
    • subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-7-server-dotnet-rpms
    • yum install scl-utils
    • yum install rh-dotnetcore10
    • scl enable rh-dotnetcore10 bash
  • If the installation is successful, check if the dotnet core environment is successfully installed with the following command:
    • mkdir hwapp
    • cd hwapp
    • dotnet new
    • dotnet restore
    • dotnet run
      image
  1. Bookkeeping Node Deployment
  • Compile [Miner], or download it from our official website.
  • Copy [Miner] to the target server
  • Enable Firewall Port: 10332,10333,20332,20333
  • Run Miner.dll to initiate
    dotnet Miner.dll activates one bookkeeping node
    dotnet Miner.dll /rpc activates one bookkeeping node with rpc server

###Antshares Blockchain Private Chain Deployment

A private Antshares Blockchain requires at least 4 servers to deploy with the same aforementioned system requirements. Each server corresponds to one bookkeeping node. The configuration is as the following:

  • server: 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2
    192.168.1.3
    192.168.1.4

  • Generate 4 wallets corresponding to 4 servers with the Antshares Client:

Server Wallet File
192.168.1.1 1.db1
192.168.1.2 2.db1
192.168.1.3 3.db1
192.168.1.4 4.db1

Deploy Private Antshares Blockchain in Linux or on Windows Server

  1. Change the Seed Node IP（...\AntShares\AntSharesCore\network\localnode.cs） image

  2. Change the Standingby Bookkeeper...\AntShares\AntSharesCore\Core\Blockchain.cs） image

  3. Change the magic value（...\AntShares\AntSharesCore\network\message.cs） image

  4. Compile the project

  5. Copy the compiled project files and wallet files to the 4 servers

  6. Run Command to initiate the nodes (also activates rpc service)

  • dotnet Miner.dll /rpc
    image
  1. Initiate Consensus on the 4 servers
Server Command
192.168.1.1 open wallet /home/antshares/wallets/1.db3
192.168.1.2 open wallet /home/antshares/wallets/2.db3
192.168.1.3 open wallet /home/antshares/wallets/3.db3
192.168.1.4 open wallet /home/antshares/wallets/4.db3

Wallet Password required to initiate. If successful, the 4 nodes will commence the consensus (start mining), as shown below: image

###Command Guide

  1. Command Lines
    version Shows current version of the software clear Clears the screen exit To exit the program
  2. Checking Node Info. show node Shows currently linked node addresses and ports show state Shows current blockchain synchronization status
  3. Wallet Operations create wallet <path> Creates wallet files open wallet <path> Opens wallet files list account Lists all accounts in a wallet list address Lists all contract addresses in a wallet
