Validator

Joystream node is the main server application that connects to the network, synchronizes the blockchain with other nodes and produces blocks if configured as a validator node.

To setup a full node and validator review the advanced guide from the helpdesk.

Pre-built Binaries

The latest pre-built binaries can be downloads from the releases page.

Building from source

Clone the repository and install build tools:

git clone https://github.com/Joystream/joystream.git

cd joystream/

./setup.sh

Building

cargo build --release

Running a public node on the Rome testnet

Run the node and connect to the public testnet.

cargo run --release -- --chain ./rome-tesnet.json

The rome-testnet.json chain file can be ontained from the release page

Installing a release build

This will install the executable joystream-node to your ~/.cargo/bin folder, which you would normally have in your $PATH environment.

cargo install joystream-node --path node/

Now you can run

joystream-node --chain rome-testnet.json

Local development

This will build and run a fresh new local development chain purging existing one:

./scripts/run-dev-chain.sh

Unit tests

cargo test

Coding style

We use cargo-fmt to format the source code for consistency.

It should be available on your machine if you ran the setup.sh script, otherwise install it with rustup:

rustup component add rustfmt

Applying code formatting on all source files recursing subfolders:

cargo-fmt
