Pastelup

pastelup is a utility that can install, initialize, start, update, and monitor Pastel Network node, supernode and walletnode.

Build

1. Install the latest version of golang (1.19 or higher)

First, remove existing versions of golang as follows:

sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove golang-go
sudo rm -rvf /usr/local/go

Then, download and install golang as follows:

wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.19.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo tar -xf go1.19.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo mv go /usr/local

Now, edit the following file:

nano  ~/.profile

Add the following lines to the end and save with Ctrl-x:

export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:$GOPATH/bin

Make settings effective with:

source ~/.profile

Check that everything is working by running:

go version

This should return something similar to:

go version go1.19.3 linux/amd64

2. Clone and build the pastelup repo as follows:

git clone https://github.com/pastelnetwork/pastelup.git
cd pastelup
make

You may need to first run:

go mod tidy

Test

All tests are contained in the test/ directory. You can invoke the tests by running

make build-test-img
make <test-walletnode|test-local-supernode|test-local-supernode-service>

This will run the associated script found in test/scripts/ inside a docker container to validate specific functionality of pastelup.
