Deploy A Local Fluence Node

A significant chunk of developing and testing of Fluence services can be accomplished on an isolated, local node. In this brief tutorial we set up a local, dockerized Fluence node and test its functionality. In subsequent tutorials, we cover the steps required to join an existing network or how to run your own network.

The fastest way to get a Fluence node up and running is to use docker:

docker run -d --name fluence -e RUST_LOG="info" -p 7777:7777 -p 9999:9999 -p 18080 fluencelabs/fluence

where the -d flag runs the container in detached mode, -e flag sets the environment variables, -p flag exposes the ports: 7777 is the tcp port, 9999 the websocket port, and, optionally, 18080 the Prometheus port.

Once the container is up and running, we can tail the log output with

docker logs -f fluence

<snip>

For future interaction with the node, we need to retain the server peer id 12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx. And if you feel the need to snoop around the container:

docker exec -it fluence bash

will get you in.

Now that we have a local node, we can use the fldist tool to interact with it. From the Quick Start, you may recall that we need the node-id and node-addr:

  • node-id: 12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx
  • node-addr: /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/9999/ws/p2p/12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx

Let's inspect our node and check for any available modules and interfaces:

fldist get_modules --node-id 12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx  --node-addr /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/9999/ws/p2p/12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx

to expand interfaces, use get_interfaces --expand

Since we just initiated the node, we expect no modules and no interfaces and the fldist queries confirm our expectations. To further explore and validate the node, we can create a small greeting service.

mkdir fluence-greeter
cd fluence-greeeter
# download the greeting.wasm file into this directory
# https://github.com/fluencelabs/fce/blob/master/examples/greeting/artifacts/greeting.wasm -- Download button to the right
echo '{ "name":"greeting"}' > greeting_cfg.json

We just grabbed the greeting wasm file from the Fluence repo and created a service configuration file, greeting_cfg.json, which allow us to create a new GreetingService:

fldist --node-id 12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx  --node-addr /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/9999/ws/p2p/12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx new_service --ms  /Users/bebo/localdev/fce/examples/greeting/artifacts/greeting.wasm:greeting_cfg.json -n GreetingService

We now have a greeting service running on our node. As always, make a note of the service id, 64551400-6296-4701-8e82-daf0b4e02751.

fldist get_modules --node-id 12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx  --node-addr /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/9999/ws/p2p/12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx

Yep, checking once again for modules, the output confirms that the greeting service is available. Writing a small AIR script allows us to use the service:

(xor
    (seq
        (call relay (service  "greeting") [name] result)
        (call %init_peer_id% (returnService "run") [result])
    )
    (call %init_peer_id% (returnService "run") [%last_error%])
)

Copy and save the script to greeting.clj and we can use our trusted fldist tool:

fldist --node-id 12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx  --node-addr /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/9999/ws/p2p/12D3KooWLFCmDq4vDRfaxW2GA6kYnorxAiie78XzQrVDVoWEZnPx run_air -p greeting.clj -d '{"service": "64551400-6296-4701-8e82-daf0b4e02751", "name":"Fluence"}'

Yep, our node and the tools are working as expected. Going back to the logs, we can further verify the script execution:

docker logs -f fluence

Looks like our node container and logging is up and running and ready for your development use. As the Fluence team is rapidly developig, make sure you stay up to date. Check the repo or Docke rhub and update with docker pull fluencelabs/fluence:latest.

Happy composing!
