# avalanche-gossip-research

CS 6410 Project

## Starting a Cluster via cURL

### Requires

1. avalanche-network-runner

1. An avalanchego node executable

1. cURL

### Start the Server

In one terminal run

```

avalanche-network-runner server \

    --log-level debug \

    --port=":8080" \

    --grpc-gateway-port=":8081"

```

### Cluster Configuration

To specify the nodes in the cluster, write a config file with each node executable and number of nodes on separate lines. For example, the following specifies a network with 5 default avalanchego nodes and 6 modified nodes

```

5 /home/qburke/avalanchego/build/avalanchego

3 /home/qburke/walrus/build/nodev1

```

### Starting the Cluster

In a separate terminal run the testbed module passing the filename as the first argument

This will 

1. Start a cluster with the given configuration

1. Fund the network

1. Attach `txn-subscripbers` to each node which will output to the terminal information about transactions

1. See this REAMDE in `tx-spammer/` to see how to spam transactions to this network

### Resetting MetaMask Account

For first time setup, follow the steps in the relevant section of the [Avalanche docs](https://docs.avax.network/quickstart/fund-a-local-test-network) to complete the integration with MetaMask.


For subsequent tests, go to Account Settings > Advanced and Reset Account for the funded account.
