New Golem Network - Light Bounty #1

Compile VIM On Single Golem Node

Your task is to build a VIM binary inside image running on top of the Golem Network and then run it on your native machine.

Requirements

Python3 + Pip
Docker + Compose + Machine + Virtualbox (MacOS case)
yagna - requestor
gvmkit-build
yapapi

Obligatory Steps

you’ve built a docker image that compiles VIM
you’ve converted this image into a Golem VM image
you’ve run it on devnet-alpha.2 network using our Python high-level API
you’ve successfully run the compiled binary on your native machine

Instructions

install requirements
create a virtualenv
activate virtualenv
install gvmkit-build and yapapi via pip
build and tag the Dockerfile
build and push the tagged image using gvmkit-build
copy the generated hash link and paste it into IMAGE_HASH inside vim-gvm.py
run yagna service in a standalone terminal
on another terminal, initialize the yagna payment and wait for faucet and tx
once the account is registered, create a requestor
note the output key and export it as the YAGNA_APPKEY environment variable
run vim-gvm.py
wait a couple of minutes for VIM to compile into your machine
turn the downloaded file into an executable via chmod
open VIM :)

Commands Used

pip install -U gvmkit-build yapapi
docker build -t vim:v1 .
gvmkit-build vim:v1
gvmkit-build vim:v1 --push
yagna service run
yagna payment init -r
yagna app-key create requestor
export YAGNA_APPKEY={requestor_output}
python3 vim-gvm.py
chmod +x vim
open vim || ./vim
