Multi-Node Testnet on PQD

In this article, we are going to explain how to set up a mining network like Phu Quoc Dog based on Substrate template. Through this article, you will learn:

### Generate node key

Generate pubic key from a secret phrase. This secret phrase is dedicated to development and should not be used in any other places.

subkey inspect — scheme ed25519 “fire penalty pony chase gift loan grid mule tape wrestle stuff salute”

Then the result like below:

Secret phrase `fire penalty pony chase gift loan grid mule tape wrestle stuff salute` is account:
 Secret seed: 0x09c047c99b49d03c96f5915497cc5e7ffb0fce31b732abf35f2d7d1bfd89de13

 SS58 Address: 5EhfZPbz9JVAXWmHpKA1zc6jpBZXS3ExvmrvZrjZ6AMa2Vzq

Save this public key 0x74a8cfbadb5d2b0178ec124791bfa8346ac3550a4f689923c806428090055277

### Config validators’ session keys

Config validators secret phrase in prepare-test-net.sh

# Copy paste your mnemonic here.
SECRET=”panda dose welcome ostrich brief pull lawn table arrest worth ranch faculty”

And running the bash shell via command: sh scripts/prepare-test-net.sh 2

Replace the session keys from vec![…] in node/src/chain_spec.rs with above generated keys.

fn mainnet_genesis_constuctor() -> GenesisConfig {
 let initial_authorities: Vec<(AccountId, AccountId, GrandpaId, BabeId, ImOnlineId, AuthorityDiscoveryId)> = vec![…];
 # — snip — 
}

Recompile

cargo build — release — features=runtime-benchmarks

Generate pubic key from a secret phrase. This secret phrase is dedicated to development and should not be used in any other places.

### Config root key
Generate pubic key from a secret phrase. This secret phrase is dedicated to development and should not be used in any other places.

subkey inspect — scheme sr25519 “royal novel glad piece waste napkin little pioneer decline fancy train sell”
Secret phrase `royal novel glad piece waste napkin little pioneer decline fancy train sell` is account:
 Secret seed: 0x5b482eab1018eaee6293d3aaf15e4cc26fedd711b1ad4fe127adc11367ac3e9b
 Public key (hex): 0xa2bf32e50edd79c181888da41c80c67c191e9e6b29d3f2efb102ca0e2b53c558

 SS58 Address: 5Fk6QsYKvDXxdXumGdHnNQ7V7FziREy6qn8WjDLEWF8WsbU3

Remove prefix 0x of public key, replace the root key in node/src/chain_spec.rs

let root_key: AccountId = hex![
 // 5Fk6QsYKvDXxdXumGdHnNQ7V7FziREy6qn8WjDLEWF8WsbU3

].into();

### Launch first node

Launch first node with the public key above.

./target/release/phuquocdog-node — chain quark -d data/validator1 — name validator1 — in-peers 256 — validator — ws-external — rpc-cors all — rpc-methods=unsafe — node-key 0x74a8cfbadb5d2b0178ec124791bfa8346ac3550a4f689923c806428090055277

### Launch other two nodes

./target/release/phuquocdog-node — chain quark -d data/validator2 — name validator2 — validator — port 30334 — ws-port 9946 — rpc-port 9934 — ws-external — rpc-cors all — rpc-methods=unsafe — bootnodes /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/30333/p2p/12D3KooWRm651Kd5GmsLTHJbgX5chQS5npx9ttLgo46UsegCMoNM


./target/release/phuquocdog-node — chain quark -d data/validator3 — name validator3 — validator — port 30335 — ws-port 9947 — rpc-port 9935 — ws-external — rpc-cors all — rpc-methods=unsafe — bootnodes /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/30333/p2p/12D3KooWRm651Kd5GmsLTHJbgX5chQS5npx9ttLgo46UsegCMoNM

### Setup node session keys

- Copy validators’ session keys to babe1 ~ 3, gran1 ~ 3, imol1 ~ 3, audi1 ~ 3, add prefix 0x

- Fill right secret phrase

- Run command to setup node session keys

cd scripts/session_keys
sh run.sh

Note that the format request should be like this

{
 “jsonrpc”: “2.0”,
 “id”: 1,
 “method”: “author_insertKey”,
 “params”: [“<aura/gran>”, “<mnemonic phrase>”, “<public key>”]
}
