Prerequisites

• Go (v1.18 or above)

Installation

Clone dymension:

git clone https://github.com/dymensionxyz/dymension.git
cd dymension
make install

Check that the dymd binaries have been successfully installed:

dymd version

If the dymd command is not found an error message is returned, confirm that your GOPATH is correctly configured by running the following command:

export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin

Initializing dymd

• Using the setup script:

  This method is preffered as it preconfigured to support running rollapps locally

  bash scripts/setup_local.sh
  

• Manually:

  First, set the following environment variables:

  export CHAIN_ID="dymension_100-1"
  export KEY_NAME="local-user"
  export MONIKER_NAME="local"
  

  Then, initialize a chain with a user:

  dymd init "$MONIKER_NAME" --chain-id "$CHAIN_ID"
  dymd keys add "$KEY_NAME" --keyring-backend test
  dymd add-genesis-account "$(dymd keys show "$KEY_NAME" -a --keyring-backend test)" 100000000000udym
  dymd gentx "$KEY_NAME" 1000000dym --chain-id "$CHAIN_ID" --keyring-backend test
  dymd collect-gentxs
  

Running the Chain

Now start the chain!

dymd start

You should have a running local node!
