Frequently used commands

Running a node

To start up the Edgeware node and connect to testnet 0.9.0, run:

./target/release/edgeware --chain=chains/testnet-0.9.0.json --name <INSERT_NAME>

To run a chain locally for development purposes:

./target/release/edgeware --chain=local --alice --validator

To allow apps in your browser to connect, as well as anyone else on your local network, add the --rpc-cors=all flag.

To force your local to create new blocks, even if offline, add the --force-authoring flag.

Generating keypairs

To create a keypair, install subkey with cargo install --force --git https://github.com/paritytech/substrate subkey. Then run the following:

subkey generate

To create an ED25519 keypair, run the following:

subkey -e generate

To create derived keypairs, use the mnemonic generated from a method above and run (use -e for ED25519):

subkey inspect "<mnemonic>"//<derive_path>

For example:

subkey inspect "west paper guide park design weekend radar chaos space giggle execute canoe"//edgewarerocks
