Hornet Chrysalis Node

You can also use these scripts under the AWS Marketplace

Usage

• Make the bash script executable by running

chmod +x hornet.sh

• Install a Hornet Node connected to the Chrysalis mainnet

./hornet.sh install -p <peer_multiAddress> -i <docker_image>

The peer_multiAddress parameter is optional and must conform to the format specified here. If no peer specified autopeering will be enabled.

Optionally a Docker image name can be passed, even though, by default, the image name present in the docker-compose.yaml file will be used, usually iotaledger/hornet:1.2.4.

A back slash should be added wherever there is a forward slash. For example, when defining the docker image iotaledger/hornet:1.2.4 should be iotaledger\/hornet:1.2.4 and a peer multiaddress like /ip4/x.x.x.x/tcp/15600/p2p/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx should be \/ip4\/x.x.x.x\/tcp\/15600\/p2p\/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to avoid any error occuring during running or installing hornet.

• Stop Hornet by running

./hornet.sh stop

• Start Hornet by running

./hornet.sh start

Troubleshooting

• Autopeering is only enabled if no peer address is provided. To check that autopeering is working correctly node.enablePlugins must include "Autopeering".

Ensure that there are entry nodes in the p2p.autopeering.entryNodes. Entry nodes are encoded in multiaddr format.

NB: The update command will not update to new versions of the config files as they may contain local changes that cannot be merged with the upstream changes. If that is the case you would need to stop Hornet, merge your current config files with the config files at https://github.com/iotaledger/one-click-tangle/blob/chrysalis/hornet-mainnet/config/config.json and then start again Hornet.
