This repo is a Nix flake for running a chainweb devnet environment locally. The flake uses the devenv project for configuring the set of processes and their interdependencies to be managed by the process-compose process manager, a project that aims to be a docker-compose replacement for native processes.

Setting up the Nix cache

TODO

Running devnet natively via Nix

The default app of this flake runs devnet, so it's possible to run it by executing the following in this repo:

nix run

Since this repo is a flake, it can also be run via a remote flake reference without checking out the repo first:

nix run github:kadena-community/nix-kda-cli

Instead of running the devnet environment, it's also possible to access the script that runs the devnet environment. The following command will print the path to a shell script that runs the devnet environment.

nix build --no-link --print-out-paths

Building a devnet Docker image

The default app runs all the devnet processes as child processes of process-compose. This flake also exposes a package that builds a docker image whose entry point is the devnet script, so it's possible to run the whole environment under a single docker container. The following command builds a container and prints the /nix/store path to it:

nix build .#container --no-link --print-out-paths

Or with the following command without checking out the repo:

nix build github:kadena-community/nix-kda-cli#container --no-link --print-out-paths

The following is a convenient way to build the image and load it into docker in one go:

cat $(nix build github:kadena-community/nix-kda-cli#container --no-link --print-out-paths) | docker load

Running the devnet Docker image

The docker image serves an HTTP API at the port 1337. The image also stores its environment state under the /root/.devenv folder. The following docker invocation will run the environment while exposing its HTTP port at 8080 and keeping the environment state under the user's $HOME/l1:

docker run -it -p 8080:1337 -v $HOME/l1:/devnet/.devenv <devnet-image-name>
