Rosetta implementation of Ontology.
Here we lay out the procedure one needs to follow to deploy an Ontology node that adheres to Rosetta's blockchain standards. By complying to the Rosetta blockchain specifications, we at Ontology aim to streamline the development process for blockchain developers by ensuring certain aspects of the system are structured in a manner such that basic operations such as the deployment process, communication, and certain data formats are standardized, thus increasing the overall flexibility of the system.
make dockerdocker-compse up -d
docker-compose stopIf you want to connect to mainnet, set env NETWORK_ID value to 1 in docker-compose.yml file(default to testnet value 2).Don't mix the testnet and mainnet Chain data, you need to create a new volume for mainnet.
docker-compose down -vThe default config file is server-config.json:
{
"block_wait_seconds": 1,
"oep4_tokens": [],
"port": 8080
}Objects within the oep4_tokens array must follow this structure:
{
"contract": "ff31ec74d01f7b7d45ed2add930f5d2239f7de33",
"decimals": 9,
"symbol": "WING"
}When changes are made to the internal services/store.go code, it should be
verified by:
-
First running the server so that the network is synced to a reasonable depth — as close to tip as possible.
-
Re-running the server with the
--validate-storeoption to check that the indexed store state matches up with the on chain state.
