Sourced Local Dev Setup
These settings are only for development use of Source Chain on a local machine.
Want to use
sourced
locally for development, or to work with smart contracts? You're in the right place. To get started with smart contract development, we recommend running on a laptop until you are ready to deploy to a public testnet.For an Ubuntu LTS, you can probably use:
wget https://golang.org/dl/go1.18.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.18.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
Please install Go v1.18 or later.
Unless you want to configure in a non standard way, then set these in the
.profile
in the user's home (i.e. ~/
) folder.nano ~/.profile
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export GO111MODULE=on
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:$HOME/go/bin
After updating your
~/.profile
you will need to source it:source ~/.profile
sudo curl https://get.ignite.com/cli! | sudo bash
git clone -b testnet https://github.com/Source-Protocol-Cosmos/source.git
cd ~/source
ignite chain serve
Your local chain should now be running in development mode with two funded genesis accounts and a single validator for testing purposes.
