SimpleChain Consensus Examples

Starting the DPoS sample network

1. Configure DPoS consensus and initialize accounts & keystores:

   cd cmd/consensus
   ./init_dpos.sh --numNodes 3
   

2. Start the DPoS nodes:

   sipe --datadir=dposdata/dd1 --mine --etherbase=<account1> --unlock=<account1> --password=<(echo ) --port=30303  --role=subchain --v5disc
   sipe --datadir=dposdata/dd2 --mine --etherbase=<account2> --unlock=<account2> --password=<(echo ) --port=30304  --role=subchain --v5disc --bootnodesv5={enode1} --bootnodesv4={enode1}
   sipe --datadir=dposdata/dd3 --mine --etherbase=<account3> --unlock=<account3> --password=<(echo ) --port=30305  --role=subchain --v5disc --bootnodesv5={enode1} --bootnodesv4={enode1}
   

3. Vote Transaction:

   eth.sendTransaction({from:"<voter_account>",to:"<candidate_account>",value:0,data:web3.toHex("dpos:1:event:vote")})
   

4. Cancel Vote Transaction:

   eth.sendTransaction({from:"<voter_account>",to:"<voter_account>",value:0,data:web3.toHex("dpos:1:event:devote")})
   

Starting the Raft sample network

1. Configure Raft consensus and initialize accounts & keystores:

   cd cmd/consensus
   ./init_raft.sh --numNodes 3
   

2. Start the Raft nodes: (Raft consensus only generate block after transaction commit)

   sipe --datadir=raftdata/dd1 --raft --port=21001 --raftport=50401 --role=subchain
   sipe --datadir=raftdata/dd2 --raft --port=21002 --raftport=50402 --role=subchain
   sipe --datadir=raftdata/dd3 --raft --port=21003 --raftport=50403 --role=subchain
   

Starting the Istanbul sample network

1. Configure Istanbul consensus and initialize accounts & keystores:

   cd cmd/consensus
   ./init_istanbul.sh --numNodes 3
   

2. Start the Istanbul nodes:

   sipe --datadir pbftdata/dd1 --istanbul.blockperiod=5  --syncmode=full --mine --minerthreads=1  --port=21001 --networkid=10 --role=subchain
   sipe --datadir pbftdata/dd2 --istanbul.blockperiod=5  --syncmode=full --mine --minerthreads=1  --port=21002 --networkid=10 --role=subchain
   sipe --datadir pbftdata/dd3 --istanbul.blockperiod=5  --syncmode=full --mine --minerthreads=1  --port=21003 --networkid=10 --role=subchain
