Getting Started

A good place to start is the Getting Started guide on YouTube which walks through the following instructions using GitPod.

Install

The following instructions show how the latest community release may be installed. The instructions should be adapted if you want to use the latest development release or any other older release.

The preferred way of installation should be via Docker.

Install via Docker

All our docker images can be found in our Google Cloud Container Registry. Each image is prefixed with gcr.io/hoprassociation/$PROJECT:$RELEASE. The latest tag represents the master branch, while the providence tag represents the most recent stable release/* branch.

You can pull the Docker image like so:

docker pull gcr.io/hoprassociation/hoprd:providence

For ease of use you can set up a shell alias to run the latest release as a docker container:

alias hoprd='docker run --pull always -m 2g -ti -v ${HOPRD_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.hoprd-db}:/app/db -p 9091:9091/tcp -p 9091:9091/udp -p 3001:3001 gcr.io/hoprassociation/hoprd:providence'

IMPORTANT: Using the above command will map the database folder used by hoprd to a local folder called .hoprd-db in your home directory. You can customize the location of that folder further by executing the following command:

HOPRD_DATA_DIR=${HOME}/.hoprd-better-db-folder eval hoprd

Also all ports are mapped to your localhost, assuming you stick to the default port numbers.

Install via Nix package manager

NOTE: This setup should only be used for development or if you know what you are doing and don't need further support. Otherwise you should use the npm or docker setup.

You will need to clone and initialize the hoprnet repo first:

git clone https://github.com/hoprnet/hoprnet
cd hoprnet
make init

If you have direnv set up properly your nix-shell will be configured automatically upon entering the hoprnet directory and enabling it via direnv allow. Otherwise you must enter the nix-shell manually:

nix develop

Now you may follow the instructions in Develop.

Alternatively you may use a development Docker container which uses the same Nix setup.

make run-docker-dev

All CLI options can be configured through environment variables as well. CLI parameters have precedence over environment variables.

As you might have noticed running the node without any command-line argument might not work depending on the installation method used. Here are examples to run a node with some safe configurations set.

Using Docker

The following command assumes you've setup an alias like described in Install via Docker.

hoprd --identity /app/hoprd-db/.hopr-identity --password switzerland --init --announce --host "0.0.0.0:9091" --apiToken <MY_TOKEN> --network monte_rosa

Here is a short breakdown of each argument.

hoprd
  --identity /app/hoprd-db/.hopr-identity     # store your node identity information in the persisted database folder
  --password switzerland   	                  # set the encryption password for your identity
  --init 				                              # initialize the database and identity if not present
  --announce 				                          # announce the node to other nodes in the network and act as relay if publicly reachable
  --host "0.0.0.0:9091"   	                  # set IP and port of the P2P API to the container's external IP so it can be reached on your host
  --apiToken <MY_TOKEN>                       # specify password for accessing REST API(REQUIRED)
  --network monte_rosa                        # an network is defined as a chain plus a number of deployed smart contract addresses to use on that chain
                                              # each release has a default network id set, but the user can override this value
                                              # nodes from different networks are **not able** to communicate

Using Docker Compose with extended HOPR node monitoring

There is an optional Docker Compose setup that can be used to run the above Docker image with HOPRd and also have an extended monitoring of the HOPR node's activity (using Prometheus + Grafana dashboard).

To startup a HOPRd node with monitoring, you can use the following command:

docker compose --file scripts/compose/docker-compose.yml up -d

The configuration of the HOPRd node can be changed in the scripts/compose/default.env file.

Once the configuration starts up, the HOPRd Admin UI is accessible as usual via localhost:3000. The Grafana instance is accessible via localhost:3030 and is provisioned with a dashboard that contains useful metrics and information about the HOPR network as perceived from your node plus some additional runtime information.

The default username for Grafana is admin with password hopr.

Testnet accessibility

Currently, to be able to participate in a public testnet or public staging environment, you need to satisfy certain criteria to be eligible to join. See Network Registry for details.

These criteria however, are not required when you develop using your local nodes or a locally running cluster (see Develop section below).

Migrating between releases

At the moment we DO NOT HAVE backward compatibility between releases. We attempt to provide instructions on how to migrate your tokens between releases.

Set your automatic channel strategy to passive.
Redeem all unredeemed tickets.
Close all open payment channels.
Once all payment channels have closed, withdraw your funds to an external wallet.
Run info and take note of the network name.
Once funds are confirmed to exist in a different wallet, backup .hopr-identity folder.
Launch new HOPRd instance using latest release, observe the account address.
Only transfer funds to new HOPRd instance if HOPRd operates on the same network as last release, you can compare the two networks using info.

Develop

HOPR contains modules written in Rust, therefore a Rust toolchain is needed to successfully build the artifacts. To install Rust toolchain (at least version 1.60) please follow instructions at https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install first.

# build deps and HOPRd code
make -j deps && make -j build

# starting network
make run-anvil

# update protocol-config
scripts/update-protocol-config.sh -n anvil-localhost

# running normal node alice (separate terminal)
DEBUG="hopr*" yarn run:hoprd:alice

# running normal node bob (separate terminal)
DEBUG="hopr*" yarn run:hoprd:bob

# fund all your nodes to get started

# fund all your nodes to get started
make fund-local-rotsee id_dir=`pwd`


# start local HOPR admin in a container (and put into background)
make run-hopr-admin &

Local cluster

The best way to test with multiple HOPR nodes is by using a local cluster of interconnected nodes. See how to start your local HOPR cluster.

Test

Unit testing

We use mocha for our tests. You can run our test suite across all packages using the following command:

make test

To run tests of a single package (e.g. hoprd) execute:

make test package=hoprd

To run tests of a single test suite (e.g. Identity) within a package (e.g. hoprd) execute:

For instance, to run only the Identity test suite in hoprd, you need to run the following:

yarn --cwd packages/hoprd test --grep "Identity"

In a similar fashion, our contracts can be tested in isolation. For now, you need to pass the file to be tested, as hardhat does not support --grep

yarn test:contracts test/HoprChannels.spec.ts

In case a package you need to test is not included in our package.json, please feel free to update it as needed.

Test-driven development

To make sure we add the least amount of untested code to our codebase, whenever possible all code should come accompanied by a test. To do so, locate the .spec or equivalent test file for your code. If it does not exist, create it within the same file your code will live in.

Afterwards, ensure you create a breaking test for your feature. For example, the following commit added a test to a non-existing feature. The immediate commit provided the actual feature for that given test. Repeat this process for all the code you add to our codebase.

(The code was pushed as an example, but ideally, you only push code that has working tests on your machine, as to avoid overusing our CI pipeline with known broken tests.)

Github Actions CI

We run a fair amount of automation using Github Actions. To ease development of these workflows one can use act to run workflows locally in a Docker environment.

E.g. running the build workflow:

act -j build

For more information please refer to act's documentation.

End-to-End Testing

Running Tests Locally

Testing environment

Tests are using the pytest infrastructure that can be set up inside a virtualenv using as:

python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install -r tests/requirements.txt

To deactivate the activated testing environment if no longer needed:

deactivate

Test execution

With the environment activated, execute the tests locally:

python3 -m pytest tests/

Deploy

The deployment nodes and networks are mostly orchestrated through the script files in scripts/ which are executed by the Github Actions CI workflows. Therefore, all common and minimal networks do not require manual steps to be deployed.

Using Google Cloud Platform

However, sometimes it is useful to deploy additional nodes or specific versions of hoprd. To accomplish that its possible to create a cluster on GCP using the following scripts:

./scripts/setup-gcloud-cluster.sh dufour my-cluster 10

Read the full help information of the script in case of questions:

./scripts/setup-gcloud-cluster.sh --help

The script requires a few environment variables to be set, but will inform the user if one is missing. It will create a cluster of 6 nodes. By default these nodes will use the latest Docker image of hoprd and run on the Goerli network. Different versions and different target networks can be configured through the parameters and environment variables.

A previously started cluster can be destroyed, which includes all running nodes, by using the same script but setting the cleanup switch:

HOPRD_PERFORM_CLEANUP=true \
  ./scripts/setup-gcloud-cluster.sh my-cluster 3
