rlay-client

Client implementation for the Ɍlay protocol, a Decentralized Information Network.

Currently the main purpose of the client is to calculate the network rewards and submit them to the core protocol (rlay-protocol) via a Merkle Tree.

The whitepaper gives a outline of the theoretical foundations of the protocol.

Running

Steps to run rlay-client from this repository:

• Clone the repository
• Make sure you have the prerequsites for rquantiles installed
• If you want to run a local network for development:
  • Spawn a local Ethereum RPC and deploy rlay-protocol
• Make sure that the RPC addresses and the contract addresses are set correctly in the config file
• cargo run -- client

If you encounter any problems while trying to run rlay-client you can try to use the following command to pinpoint your problems:

cargo run -- doctor

Via Docker

We provide a Docker image which can be used to run rlay-client. I currently has the assumption that it is used with a single Neo4J backend at 127.0.0.1:7474, which requires it to be run with --net=host. You can use it with another configuration by building your own Docker image based on it and overwriting the /rlay.config.toml file.

docker run --net=host rlayproject/rlay-client
