Marvel-Ib / sphinx-stack

local testing environment

sphinx-stack

Full stack Sphinx cluster, including:

• bitcoind
• LND
• relay
• sphinx-tribes
• sphinx-memes
• sphinx-auth
• sphinx-mqtt

run

Open a terminal inside the root directory of this repository. Then:

docker-compose pull

docker-compose up -d

stop

docker-compose down

Running docker-compose down instead of sending a SIGINT or SIGTERM is very important! Otherwise bitcoind will not finish writing to its database, and on the next run LND will crash with a block index mismatch.

You can also run with Docker Desktop and just use the "play" and "stop" buttons (and view the logs from each container).

clear

Clear the existing configs, so you can start fresh:

./clearall.sh

developing/contributing to Sphinx

• Run one of the sphinx clients on your local computer, and enter the exported_keys that you can find in /relay/NODES.json (make sure to copy the trailing = equal signs if there are any!)

• the easiest client to get up and running is Sphinx Desktop

• To find out how to modify sphinx components and contribute to the stack vist Developing/Contributing on Sphinx

• To find out how to develop bots on the sphinx stack visit Developing bots on sphinx

troubleshooting

There's lots of moving pieces! On a slower computer (or an M1 mac), do export COMPOSE_HTTP_TIMEOUT=120 first
