Current node version: 1.35.3

Run an Babbage private testnet, with or without Docker.

• We run 3 nodes to facilitate protocol bootstrapping. They are run in the same parent process for scripting simplicity. Of course you can run them in 3 different processes/containers/hosts to make it more realistic.
• The Test...HardFork parameters in config.json help us fork directly to Babbage era right from the start.
• Once the nodes are ready, mint-tokens.sh will run automatically and mint some test tokens to the genesis address. You can modify this script to mint more tokens or distribute to other addresses. The genesis keys are located in utxo-keys.

Note: We will mount the node sockets in sockets directory, however these sockets don't work with Docker for Mac. If you're using MacOS, you need to docker exec into node container to use cardano-cli. Please note that cardano-node and cardano-cli behave quite differently in MacOS, so you might want to run them in Docker or Linux to be close to production environment.

1. Run docker-compose up to start a new private testnet in Docker.
2. Run ./scripts/install.sh to install cardano-cli.
3. Run export CARDANO_NODE_SOCKET_PATH=$PWD/sockets/node-spo1.sock for cardano-cli to work.
4. (Optional) Run export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/bin so you can use cardano-cli instead of ./bin/cardano-cli.
5. Check the network: ./bin/cardano-cli query tip --testnet-magic 42

Tested on Linux.

1. Run ./scripts/install.sh to install necessary binaries.
2. Run ./scripts/reset.sh to run a new private testnet.
3. Run export CARDANO_NODE_SOCKET_PATH=$PWD/sockets/node-spo1.sock for cardano-cli to work.
4. (Optional) Run export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/bin so you can use cardano-cli instead of ./bin/cardano-cli.
5. Check the network: ./bin/cardano-cli query tip --testnet-magic 42
