Overview

Package node provides tooling for creating a ScPrime node. ScPrime nodes consist of a collection of modules. The node package gives you tools to easily assemble various combinations of modules with varying dependencies and settings, including templates for assembling sane no-hassle ScPrime nodes.

Types

type Node

type Node struct {
	// The mux of the node.
	Mux *siamux.SiaMux

	// The modules of the node. Modules that are not initialized will be nil.
	ConsensusSet    modules.ConsensusSet
	Explorer        modules.Explorer
	Gateway         modules.Gateway
	Host            modules.Host
	Miner           modules.TestMiner
	MiningPool      modules.Pool
	StratumMiner    modules.StratumMiner
	Renter          modules.Renter
	TransactionPool modules.TransactionPool
	Wallet          modules.Wallet

	// The high level directory where all the persistence gets stored for the
	// modules.
	Dir string
}

Node is a collection of ScPrime modules operating together as a ScPrime node.

func New

func New(params NodeParams, loadStartTime time.Time) (*Node, <-chan error)

New will create a new node. The inputs to the function are the respective 'New' calls for each module. We need to use this awkward method of initialization because the siatest package cannot import any of the modules directly (so that the modules may use the siatest package to test themselves).

func (*Node) Close

func (n *Node) Close() (err error)

Close will call close on every module within the node, combining and returning the errors.

type NodeParams

type NodeParams struct {
	// Flags to indicate which modules should be created automatically by the
	// server. If you are providing a pre-existing module, do not set the flag
	// for that module.
	//
	// NOTE / TODO: The code does not currently enforce this, but you should not
	// provide a custom module unless all of its dependencies are also custom.
	// Example: if the ConsensusSet is custom, the Gateway should also be
	// custom. The TransactionPool however does not need to be custom in this
	// example.

NodeParams contains a bunch of parameters for creating a new test node. As there are many options, templates are provided that you can modify which cover the most common use cases.

Each module is created separately. There are several ways to create a module, though not all methods are currently available for each module. You should only use one method for creating a module, using multiple methods will cause an error.

• Indicate with the 'CreateModule' bool that a module should be created automatically. To create the module with custom dependencies, pass the custom dependencies in using the 'ModuleDependencies' field.
• Pass an existing module in directly.
• Set 'CreateModule' to false and do not pass in an existing module. This will result in a 'nil' module, meaning the node will not have that module.
