Overview ¶
Package node provides tooling for creating a Sia node. Sia 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 Sia 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. Accounting modules.Accounting ConsensusSet modules.ConsensusSet Explorer modules.Explorer Gateway modules.Gateway Host modules.Host Miner modules.TestMiner 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 Sia modules operating together as a Sia 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).
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. CreateAccounting bool CreateConsensusSet bool CreateExplorer bool CreateGateway bool CreateHost bool CreateMiner bool CreateRenter bool CreateTransactionPool bool CreateWallet bool // Custom modules - if the modules is provided directly, the provided // module will be used instead of creating a new one. If a custom module is // provided, the 'omit' flag for that module must be set to false (which is // the default setting). Accounting modules.Accounting ConsensusSet modules.ConsensusSet Explorer modules.Explorer Gateway modules.Gateway Host modules.Host Miner modules.TestMiner Renter modules.Renter TransactionPool modules.TransactionPool Wallet modules.Wallet // Dependencies for each module supporting dependency injection. AccountingDeps modules.Dependencies ConsensusSetDeps modules.Dependencies ContractorDeps modules.Dependencies ContractSetDeps modules.Dependencies GatewayDeps modules.Dependencies HostDeps modules.Dependencies HostDBDeps modules.Dependencies RenterDeps modules.Dependencies TPoolDeps modules.Dependencies WalletDeps modules.Dependencies // Dependencies for storage monitor supporting dependency injection. StorageManagerDeps modules.Dependencies // Custom settings for siamux SiaMuxTCPAddress string SiaMuxWSAddress string // Custom settings for modules Allowance modules.Allowance Bootstrap bool UseUPNP bool HostAddress string HostStorage uint64 RPCAddress string WalletPassword string // Initialize node from existing seed. PrimarySeed string // The following fields are used to skip parts of the node set up SkipSetAllowance bool SkipHostDiscovery bool SkipHostAnnouncement bool SkipWalletInit bool // The high level directory where all the persistence gets stored for the // modules. Dir string }
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.
