A quick simple HTTP-based Corda network map for testing (not meant for production)

gradle run

gradle distZip # (or gradle distTar)

build/distributions will contain a zip file with all dependencies + OS-specific scripts for running

The server can then be run with:

bin/stub-corda-networkmap server <path to yaml config>

expiration (in seconds) in the yaml config sets the expiration / cache HTTP header that's then used by Corda nodes how often they'd query the network map.

Additional server properties can be configured using the standard Dropwizard configuration: http://www.dropwizard.io/1.3.0/docs/manual/configuration.html#http

Each node that will have OU=Notary in its legal name will be automatically added to this test stub network map as a notary. Adding notary nodes changes the network map and normally would require signalling an upgrade, and having node operators manually approve the network map update (via RPC / node shell).

For testing, the temporary procedure is:

1. run notary nodes with OU=Notary in their legal names and compatibilityZoneURL in their config (e.g. compatibilityZoneURL: "http://localhost:8080").

2. notary nodes will self-shutdown with an exception: network.NetworkMapUpdater.updateNetworkMapCache - Node is using parameters with hash: ... but network map is advertising: ...

3. delete network-parameters in the notary nodes' directories and run them again

4. run all other nodes with the compatibilityZoneURL in their configs
