Tippy

Getting Started

You can download Tippy binary for your platform of choice from the releases page.

Tippy is pre-built as self-contained .Net Core application. You don't have to install .Net Core to run it. If you're running it on Linux or macOS and want to use the Debugger feature, please install debugger dependencies following this section.

On Windows:

  • Download tippy-win-x64.zip
  • Extract the zip file (default to tippy-win-x64)
  • Enter tippy-win-x64 folder and click Tippy.exe to start

On Linux:

1、start with docker

docker run -it --rm -v /mnt/f/docker.tippy.user/CKBSTATE:/app/CKBSTATE  -v /mnt/f/docker.tippy.user/scripts:/app/BinDeps/scripts   -p 8000:80  --name tippy registry.cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/nervos/tippy:0.3.3

2、also you can start with tippy Run files

  • Download tippy-linux-x64.tar.gz
  • Extract the tar.gz file (default to tippy-linux-x64)
  • Make Tippy executable: chmod +x ./tippy-linux-x64/Tippy
  • cd tippy-linux-x64 then run ./Tippy to start

We also provide a Homebrew formula to install with one-liner:

brew install nervosnetwork/tap/tippy-linux

Then simply run tippy to start

On macOS:

  • Download Tippy.dmg
  • Open the dmg file and drag Tippy.app to /Applications folder
  • From /Applications click Tippy.app to start

We also provide a Homebrew cask to install with one-liner:

brew install nervosnetwork/tap/tippy

Tippy Console and UI

While Tippy runs as a console application, it also provides web UI. By default the dashboard UI will be opened automatically, if not you can access it by visiting http://localhost:5000/ from a browser.

Override the App URL

If you want to access the Web UI and Tippy API from another URL than the default http://localhost URL, there are two options.

1. Set Environment Variable ASPNETCORE_URLS

On Linux you can set the ASPNETCORE_URLS Environment Variable to override the default App URL. For example, launch Tippy this way to use http://0.0.0.0:5000:

ASPNETCORE_URLS="http://0.0.0.0:5000" tippy

2. Modify appsettings.json

You can also modify appsettings.json file to override the default App URL. For example, add the following section to use http://0.0.0.0:5000:

"Kestrel": {
  "EndPoints": {
    "Http": {
      "Url": "http://0.0.0.0:5000"
    }
  }
}

appsettings.json locates in /Applications/Tippy.app/Contents/MacOS/ on macOS and in the root Tippy folder on Windows/Linux. If Tippy is installed with Homebrew on Linux then it locates in /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/tippy-linux/[version]/libexec/.

Debugger

Tippy ships with CKB Debugger to help off-chain contract development.

Note: debugger is only supported on Linux and macOS. It's unavailable on Windows.

CKB Debugger

Install Dependencies

Debugger requires ttyd and gdb. We recommend that you install them with homebrew.

For Linux

brew install ttyd gdb

For macOS, build gdb from source (with --build-from-source option)

brew install gdb --HEAD --build-from-source
brew install ttyd

API

Tippy exposes a set of RPCs in JSON-RPC 2.0 protocols for controlling a devchain.

It also proxies API calls to the active running devchain for transparent CKB interactions.

The URL of Tippy RPC is http://localhost:5000/api.

CKB RPCs

For CKB RPCs, simply call any API method with Tippy API URL. For example:

echo '{
  "id": 2,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "get_tip_block_number",
  "params": []
}' \
| tr -d '\n' \
| curl -H 'content-type: application/json' -d @- \
http://localhost:5000/api

See CKB JSON-RPC doc for more information.

The send_transaction API method

If you call CKB's send_transaction API method through Tippy API, the transactions will be recorded in Tippy. Go to the Recorded Transactions tab to view them.

Q&A

I'm using Tippy in WSL and I can see the Tippy UI via localhost:5000, but the height is always 0

This is probably because you have proxy enabled. Try launching Tippy with the following command

unset HTTPS_PROXY HTTP_PROXY http_proxy https_proxy
path/to/Tippy

Where can I find the CKB node data started with Tippy

  • Linux: ~/.config/Tippy
  • Win: ~/ApplicationData/Tippy
